Overview of Gold Country Assisted Living

Accepting Medicare and Medicaid, Gold Country Assisted Living is a 46-bed assisted living community administered by Bonnie Stone in Placerville, California. Offered are assisted living, memory care, and respite care to residents in the Sierra Nevada foothills. The community has been under current ownership since May 2024 and has 24-hour staffing.

Clean since licensing is the inspection record. One annual inspection in April 2025 found zero deficiencies. Six complaint investigations have been conducted over the same period, an above-average visit count, but every allegation across all six was determined to be unsubstantiated or unfounded, with no citations issued. The latest visit was January 2026, also resulting in zero deficiencies. Occupancy sits at 83 percent which is above California’s 72.8 percent average. It has trended upward since the change of ownership in 2024.

Present on-site are rehabilitation services.

The facility fits older adults wanting assisted living or memory care in a smaller, community-scale setting in El Dorado County. Current availability here exists, and a clean compliance record spans the facility’s full operating history under current ownership.
