Perks Corner

Perks Corner is best known within California for its setting in the Sierra Nevada foothills of El Dorado County. This small rural locality lies in California’s Gold Country, where oak-dotted slopes and pine woodland mark the transition from the Central Valley to higher mountain country. El Dorado County holds a central place in state history: gold discovered at Coloma in 1848 helped trigger the California Gold Rush. Nearby Placerville, the county seat, still reflects the mining-era identity that shapes the area. Perks Corner is less an urban destination than a reference point in a settled foothill landscape shaped by former mining districts.
