The Holiday Inn Auburn Hotel is located in the foothills of the Sierra Mountain along historic Hwy. 49, rich in history of early settlers and the gold mining era. Coloma, just minutes away, will take you back to where gold was first discovered in a stream bed at Sutter's Mill. Mine tours are available nearby at Empire Gold Mine and Gold Bug Mine. World class rafting and fishing on the American River are just 30 minutes away. For the golf enthusiast, Dark Horse Golf Club and The Ridge Golf Club, home of an LPGA tour event, are nearby. Auburn is also home to many of the Sierra's best hiking and mountain biking trails. Ski country awaits with a short drive up the mountain to Sugar Bowl or Boreal ski resorts. Local wineries include Mt. Vernon & Fawn Ridge. You'll also enjoy antique shopping in Old Town Auburn and, for the lucky, a casino within a 15 minute drive at Thundervalley in Roseville. We're close to Hewlett Packard and Intel, yet far enough to escape the corporate congestion to unwind in the serene foothills and enjoy Auburn's small town charm.
