Book Hotels in Yuba City, CA

You've almost certainly heard of John Sutter, the owner of the land where gold was discovered in 1848, sparking the California Gold Rush and the unprecedented boom town growth of towns and cities spanning the shadow of the Mother Lode. And while what's left of that gold remains embedded deep inside mountain caches, you'll see the name Sutter still emblazoned on street signs, maps, and markers throughout the wider Sacramento region. Book hotels in Yuba City, CA and you'll be in the county seat of Sutter County, gazing up at the silhouettes of the Sutter Buttes, and reminded at every turn of the region's gilded heritage and the frenzy of its heyday.

Visiting Yuba City

Choose Yuba City hotels as the base for your Sacramento-area adventures and you'll soon discover there's still an abundance of treasure in the valley. Stroll along Plumas Street, the main shopping and dining district in the city's historic downtown, and stop in to dine at one of many cafes and restaurants. Menus and wine lists showcasing the fresh, seasonal produce of the surrounding countryside, harvested mere miles away and hours ago, welcome you to take a seat. Bite into the earthy beets and peppery arugula of your salad and appreciate the rich soils that once yielded gold now provide a culinary cornucopia. Pick up one of the Yuba City rental cars to go exploring, and you'll see flooded rice fields, neat orchards with bright mustard blooms blanketing their undergrowth, and tangled vines of tomatoes ripening under the year-round sun. And the backdrop to it all— a rugged ring of eroded volcanic domes called the Sutter Buttes — has a credible claim to being the world's smallest mountain range. It's another remarkable characteristic of a place you'll appreciate as refreshingly humble given its great natural riches. Drive to Sacramento and again dine on the farm-to-fork fare that's come to define the region's culinary scene.
