Sutter Creek is a lovely Sierra Foothill Wine County town that is commonly known as the "Sausalito of the Foothills" for its highly-walkable downtown district and charming ambiance. The quaint Amador County town serves as a great launching-off point for exploring the surrounding wine country areas of Shenandoah Valley, Fairplay, and Calaveras County wine regions. Visitors can peruse the city's Main Street shops and restaurants or explore the exhibits of the Amador County Museum, which provides glimpses into the former operations of the Kennedy Gold Mine. Families can enjoy gold panning activities at the Sutter Gold Mine, which also offers underground mine shaft tours.
