Who We Are

Brinnwood Bed and Breakfast is proudly operated by The Wood Family— Danny, Lindsey, Otis, and baby Bram.

Lindsey, a native of Amador County, and her husband Danny have spent the past two decades exploring some of the most exciting urban cities in the country, including New York, San Francisco, Austin, and most recently, Los Angeles. Now, seeking a change of pace, she and Danny have settled back in their roots. For the last ten years, they have both worked in commercial photography — Danny as a set builder and Lindsey as a food stylist and culinary expert. They are thrilled to channel their talents into creating a unique and unforgettable experience for all who visit Brinnwood Bed & Breakfast.

“When you stay at Brinnwood, we want you to feel like you are coming to stay with family. Our goal is to create a warm, welcoming and relaxed environment for our guests. We love to chat with you during breakfast and you’ll most likely meet Otis, 2.5, who slays dragons in the garden as Sir Otis of Brinnwood or get a smile from Bram while we refill your coffee.” - Lindsey & Danny

About Brinnwood

The historic Old Brinn House is believed to have been constructed in the 1850s, originally owned by John Davis, a partner at the nearby Herbertville Mine. In 1860, merchant Morris Brinn and his brother, Nathan, arrived in Sutter Creek and opened a mercantile on Main Street. Five years later, Morris acquired this property and significantly expanded it, resulting in the two-story structure that stands today. 

Once a beloved local restaurant throughout the 1970s and later transformed into The Foxes Bed and Breakfast, we are excited to embrace our roles as the new proprietors. We aim to blend the charm of the past with modern comforts under our new name, Brinnwood Bed & Breakfast.

With 6 of the large bedrooms, Brinnwood Bed & Breakfast retains much of its original allure, featuring exquisite Victorian antique wood furniture inherited from previous owners, along with charming clawfoot bathtubs in almost every room. Each room has a mini-split heating and cooling systems, updated bathrooms stocked with luxury bath products, and comfortable linens.

See our Kitchen page for information on our breakfast program.

We look forward to your stay!
