  • dpk
    "This is an extremely nice and friendly area. Easy access to Interstate 80. Just a short 5 to 15 minute drive to grocery stores or larger shopping areas, in Auburn. Public transportation at the front door. Charter school just one mile away. High School 4 or 5 miles away Bus pick up on Placer HIlls Road, in front of this residence. This house is an extremely an 'easy to live in' residence. Nice open access (for RV access) all around the house. The noise of Placer Hills Rd may take some getting used to but, the overall convience of daily living will overcome the traffic noise. "
  • Ideabuilder
    "This little community above Colfax off Hwy 80 is simply a hidden gem. A place in the trees where the seasons change, the forest is lovely and the neighbors are truly friendly.
