| Amador County (Pop 38,500) bills itself as "The Heart of the Mother Lode" and lies within California Gold Country. There is a substantial wine-growing industry in the county. In 1848, Jose Maria Amador, with several Native Americans, established a successful gold mining camp near the present town of Amador City.
A historic gold rush era landmark built in 1862 with thick brick walls and three stories tall surrounded by well-maintained gardens. The hotel restaurant is one of the finest in Amador County and able to host special events for groups upto 150. Whiskey Flat Saloon was built in the 1930s and retains it's historical ambiance.

The National Park Service calls this cave the best helictite cave in the west. A 50-minute guided walking tour shows you the uniquely beautiful display of rare helictite crystals that loops from the walls and appear to defy gravity. The Colossal Room features a mid-air platform overhanging a jewel-like underground lake that is made bright blue by naturally occurring calcium bicarbonate.
