A small eco-conscious market that stocks local produce and organic/paleo/keto/vegan options. They make soups, sandwiches (gf too!), and salads to go; offer bulk bin items, herbal and homeopathic remedies, body care products, and local beers, ciders, kombucha, and wine. Also a favorite place!

(April - Oct) Favorite spa-type cafe offering great breakfasts and lunches in a quaint authentic Gold Rush cabin in Marshall Gold State Park. The greens are homegrown, they offer pastries, cookies, several gluten and dairy free options, and the coffee and tea drinks are wonderful. Their hemp milk latte is my favorite coffee drink ever!
Check ahead for hours especially during off season (October-April).

Good Thai food, specialize in duck (roasted duck, and duck green curry are the best!). Fairly mild spice, but you can ask for more. Restaurant or take-out, they're 15 minutes away in Cameron Park (and on an alternate route to the cabin for pick-up your first night!). 3181 Cameron Park Drive, Cameron Park
