Chocolate Blueberry Jam is BACK!  *W00T!*
Michelangelo S.

I FINALLY Stopped By After 10 Years! SITREP So. I've been calling to Apple Hill region about 10 years now. You know it is? You're invited by friends to go along, they introduce you to their favorite spots, and then year after year you end up going to the same spots with them. This year was a BIT different! THE SETUP So after hitting spots like Boa Vista, Crystal Basin Cellars, Abel's, Highline Trees, Boeger Wines, etc. etc., I caught my breath, and rechecked my Yelp searches. I was just getting ready to leave O'Halloran's Apple Ranch - the site of most excellent Apples, Pears and U-Pick Pumpkins - and as I turned on to Carson Road, was gonna beeline to the freeway, but noticed right next door to O'Halloran's was Bodhaine's. https://www.yelp.com/biz_photos/bodhaine-ranch-camino?select=e07LLFQny_6LxFlSL0RgLQ&userid=3mNz5nQFTIBQm0oU5mBR0w BODHAINE RANCH I actually wasn't in a rush to get home. I was in the car by myself and didn't have antsy people with me demanding to move on. I decided to take a relaxing moment for myself and see what Bodhaine's was about. In fact, I DID remember a co-worker mention a couple years ago something something something about "Bodhaine's" and "Pies" and "Tamales". https://www.yelp.com/biz_photos/bodhaine-ranch-camino?select=O-vzTzoGIq5GGKoJxBb5KQ&userid=3mNz5nQFTIBQm0oU5mBR0w THE PIES! So let me skip ahead and tell you that Bodhaines has an AMAZING baking business going on here! "French Apple Pies" (YUM) to "Chicken Pot Pies" (Also YUM), you can come up here and just eat lunch - get a slice of each. Or walk away with a whole pie of each! THE JAMS! They also have a busy little section of JAMS. My takeaways here were a Chocolate Blueberry jam and a Blackberry-Blueberry jam. https://www.yelp.com/biz_photos/bodhaine-ranch-camino?select=yb4UCjSpxypOoypxHZiXxg&userid=3mNz5nQFTIBQm0oU5mBR0w THE LOWDOWN A nice stop to include on your trek through Apple Hill.

Oma's Apple Cake
Lucas A.

I did not not spend a lot of time at Bodhaine Ranch during my visit to Apple Hill. One of the downsides to starting east and going west was that Bodhaine Ranch was not yet officially opened by the time we arrived - oops! That said, the staff there were courteous and offered to serve us the baked goods and pastries that were already available and a place to sit inside while we ate. I asked the cashier what her favorite of the few of the baked goods were, asking about each by what I thought was the item's description tag in front of each baked good. After hearing her opinion, we went with Oma's Apple Cake (pictured). I was a bit surprised because I was totally looking at another baked good and thought that was Oma's Cake, but in the words of Bob Ross, it was a happy accident. Oma's Cake was AWESOME. The cake slice was affordable and the cake itself was moist and filled with apples. Great on its own. What I'm still raving about today, though, was the cream cheese frosting that was on top. I don't think I've had a better cream cheese frosting. I'd eat it with a spoon. It mostly sweet, with a bit of tartness, and was served cool, and was just the a total epitome of what I'd consider a decadent dessert. Seriously, I need Oma's recipe. That's all we experienced at Bodhaine Ranch, but that cake is worth revisiting alone.

I've been coming to Bodhaine for 5+ years for my annual pie pick up. The ranch is under new ownership and they have really spruced up the place. They took over in December 2020. I forgot to ask about hours and they are not posted any where. Someone else mentioned that the website is not up to date. My husband and I tried to come here before thanksgiving and they were closed. We were in the area today and decided to come by ... not knowing owners had changed. The decor has improved and I love the added little details from outdoor lights, fire pit, outdoor seating, additions to the menu and they even have their own swag merchandise (forgot to take a picture, sorry). We ordered a Harvest Delight pie to take home. We also ordered a shortbread cookie and a slice of Apple Cake. My husband didn't love his cookie and said it was too dry and not buttery. He rates it 3/5. I devoured the apple cake...wow it was delicious. It was very moist and I loved the raisins. It was so good we got two more pieces to go. We didn't buy one this time but we love the Blackberry Apple Sour Cream pie. Looking forward to going next year.

This is the most instagrammable and cute spot in apple hill. It was my first visit and I was very pleasantly surprised. It's very well decorated inside and outside, and outside has a really nice fire pit and seating areas. I am not a pie person at all, but the blackberry apple pie slice was absolutely delicious and after ordering I went and ordered two more slices. The chicken pot pie was also delicious and I highly recommend getting both. We met the new owner and he was very friendly and checked in on our experience. I believe they are building an outdoor bar and they're looking to upgrade the restroom situation, which is currently a portable, but it was very clean and maintained and had an outdoor sink. They seem to have cool plans for the place. Will definitely be back.

Bodhaine has one of the nicest picnic and lounging areas in Apple Hill. Great ambiance with an outdoor bar make this a fun spot for two, a group, or families. We spent about 30 minutes here, chowing down on snickerdoodles and blackberry apple sour cream pie (ate those too fast to get a good photo), then sipped on an apple cider mimosa while playing cornhole. Great spot, nice plan to return for sure.

Cute little place in Apple Hill to enjoy lunch and desserts. The meatballs were the best meatballs I've had in a long time. They were Mediterranean inspired. So delicious! Enjoyed my meal at one of their many picnic tables. Everyone working there was so nice. Great place to visit.

Blackberry Sour Cream Pie
Alicia C.

Yum! We stopped here solely for their pies- and they didn't disappoint! We had slices of two of the award winning pies and they were truly out of this world! Weather was great, so we sat outside and it was so peaceful. Absolutely a great place for pie and relaxing for a second after going to a busier farm!

Visited Bodhaine Ranch on a quiet Wednesday morning. My husband did some research before we made our way up to Apple hill and he was interested in the chicken empanada and pot pie that could be found here . When we got there we were greeted by the friendly owners. We were ready for lunch. Ordered the empanadas and pot pie. The pot pies still had about 15 minutes in the oven. They are made fresh daily! We waited , looked around and chatted with the owners till the pie was done. The empanadas came out with deliciously metly cheese on top. And the pot pie was piping hot right out of the oven. Both were excellent and the Apple salad on the side was good too. My husband got a cup of apple cider and that was delicious. We did leave with 3 frozen pies: blackberry & apple sour cream pie, harvest pie , and the regular apple pie with crumb on top. My only regret is NOT bringing home more of their delicious, fluffy , apple cookies! Shit! Need to go back before they close for the season!

3 famous pies - top 2 and Harvest Pie

6th stop in Apple Hill area. Bodhaine Ranch is famous for their pies they say. Lady they was helping me said these are the most popular: Raspberry-apple cream cheese pie; Blackberry apple sour cream pie; and Harvest Delight. Raspberry-apple cream cheese pie - she said was sweeter than the Blackberry one, so I picked Blackberry Apple Sour Cream Pie - around $4/slice. I really liked it. Served cold that was ok, I didn't ask to have it heated up - wonder if they do that. Harvest Delight - I heard it's pumpkin pie with cream cheese. Sounds good. I wanted to buy a frozen pie - didn't this time. She said you can buy a special pouch to keep it good for 4hrs. I guess I should bring my own cooler or cooler bag. Frozen pies can keep for like 1yr in the freezer she said. They sell coffee and some regular food too. Charge it.

The Harvest Delight and Caramel Apple Bar were hands down my favorites.
Michelle W.

My new favorite place to get pie! So far out of the ones I've tried, my favorites are the Harvest Delight and Caramel Apple Bar. I pretty much just loved everything that had cream cheese in it and I'm not even a huge fan of cream cheese haha. The French Apple and Blackberry Apple Sour Cream was ok (mostly because I prefer creamier rather than fruitier pies), but my BF was a huge fan of them! Both times that I went (during a September weekend) were not busy at all. I thought it would be worse. We had went right when they opened and during lunchtime as well, and both of the times had a few groups of people, but we were lucky enough not to have to wait in line. The ranch is a little off the beaten path which I prefer since you don't have to hear the hustle and bustle of the main road like with Boa Vista. It's quiet and there plenty of cute picnic seating areas next to apple trees. Super picturesque! Overall, I would make the hour trip from Davis just to get these pies. I'm excited to try more next time!

31 out of 37 on the snasty scale. Chicken pot pie was 9.5/10. Service was 10/10. The owner came over and brought us chips when the pie took a bit. Definitely one of the prettiest places in Apple hill.

We happened to fumble upon Bodhaine Ranch while looking for apple picking farms to take our kids today. Oh good Lord... I am so thankful we did. All their food was amazing! From the kids hamburgers to the hard apple cider. Let me tell you about their chicken salad though!!! The chicken salad was thee BEST salad I've EVER had! We ended our visit as a family around the wine barrel fire pit. The kids and adults can agree today was the best day ever since Covid overtook our lives almost 2 years ago. Thank you Bodhaine Ranch staff and the owner for such a great experience.

Apple Ridge Farm is one of those places we enjoy stopping at for lunch during an Apple Hill trip…read morewhen we want to slow down and take a break during the day. The atmosphere feels relaxed and welcoming, so it's easy to settle in and enjoy a casual meal before continuing with the rest of the outing. Our favorite part of the visit is the flower trail. We like walking around, taking in the scenery, and stopping to snap a few photos along the way. It's a peaceful place to appreciate the landscape and capture some memorable pictures. Not to forget it has bakery store and other vendors for quick shop around. Overall, I think Apple Ridge Farm makes a worthwhile lunch and photo stop during an Apple Hill trip.

Calling it a trail is a bit of a stretch. There were a lot of food options, but I just wasn't really feeling any of them. It was all burgers and hotdogs and I think there was a BBQ place. We went inside a pastry shop that looked pretty dang good though. There was a store with a lot of Christmas themed decor and they had frozen chicken pot pies. I would've loved to have brought one home, but unfortunately this was not our last stop of the day and I had no way to keep it cold in the car. I did really enjoy the area where all the vendors were set up. I got the cutest pair of fall leaf earrings for five dollars that were handmade and some really tasty spicy cheese, crunchy corn snack. I wouldn't be opposed to returning, but I'm not in any rush too. Lots of places in Apple Hill to check out.

What a wonderful stop during our family trip to Apple Hill!…read more Rainbow Orchards is one of those places that reminds you why visiting this area during the fall is so enjoyable. We came up from the southern Central Valley for a family outing and couldn't have asked for better weather. The atmosphere was pleasant, the people were friendly, and thankfully it wasn't overwhelmingly crowded like some of our previous Apple Hill experiences. I especially appreciate the relaxed orchard atmosphere and the opportunity to spend quality time with family away from our usual busy schedules. Sometimes the simplest outings turn into the best memories, especially when the weather cooperates and everyone is having a good time. Overall, I'd rate our visit a 9/10.

They're well-staffed and keep things moving efficiently, so even when it looks busy, you get your order surprisingly fast. The outdoor bench seating area is another plus. It's the perfect spot to take a little break, enjoy those warm, delicious apple cider donuts, and soak in the fall vibes before heading to the next stop.

Our first stop was Boa Vista, where we headed straight to the pumpkin patch. There were so many pumpkins in different shapes and sizes! Prices ranged from about $8 to $20, depending on the size you choose. There are also little shops across the street and a BBQ spot right across from the pumpkin patch. From Boa Vista, we drove about a mile to High Hill. High Hill is bigger and has even more little vendors to explore. There's a pony ride for the kids, a pond where you can fish or simply sit back and relax, a fudge factory, and shops selling beer and cider. Of course, we couldn't leave without treating ourselves to some goodies! My husband got a slice of apple pie, and I got a cinnamon donut. Both were delicious! The entire area smelled like cinnamon and apples, which instantly reminded us that fall is finally here. The weather was absolutely perfect, with crisp air and everyone dressed in their favorite fall outfits. It was such a beautiful day to walk around, enjoy the scenery, and make memories with our corgi. We were lucky enough to find parking at both locations, but I highly recommend coming early! After 11 a.m., the traffic was terrible, and parking spots became hard to find. If you haven't visited Apple Hill, I definitely recommend adding Boa Vista and High Hill to your fall bucket list. Whether you're going for the pumpkins, delicious treats, little shops, or just to enjoy the fall atmosphere, there's something for everyone. And if you have a furry friend, it can be a fun outing for them, too!

The potatoes were fine, nothing super exciting. Not sure I would go back to this farm stand, although I would not be opposed to visiting the Orchard. Maybe a little bit earlier in the season would be better.

End of September Perfect *Sweet-Spot*-Time To Visit!…read more SITREP This time of year - last week of September - ended up being the BEST TIME to go up and visit the O'Halloran's Apple Trail Ranch's Pumpkin Patch! THE SETUP In years past, my friends and I usually ended up waiting too long to trek up the hill (HWY 50) to Apple Hill to go pumpkin-patching: searching for the perfect pumpkin and *snippin* it ourselves right off the vine. It's good to note that there is also a vibrant pick-your-own apples and pears aspect to this ranch going on through the late summer, as well as a nice cut-your-own Christmas tree season that kicks in right before Thanksgiving. PUMPKINING-PRO-TIP For this review, we're focusing on the apple-picking and the pumpkin patch. On that note, if you want to catch good pumpkins, the next two (2) are the best time to go. Whereas, the one (1) or two (2) weekends in October before Halloween ended up being too late for a number of reasons: 1. The good pumpkins had already been picked; and, 2. The weekend traffic in late October is HELL: the handful of exits in that region are heavily regulated by law enforcement and traffic cones/restrictions making for headache of a drive to get INTO the many markets, wineries and pumpkin patches in that region. THE GOODS * I always get great apples when I come here: Fuji, Grannies, Mutsu, Golden Delicious, Pink Lady, etc. etc. and several other varieties (on a related note, I didn't see any pears out, so I may have been a bit too ealy); * Got a variety of medium-sized pumpkins, including 2 White Ones, a Green One, and 2 perfect Orange pumpkins! * Snipped a couple of sunflowers! THE ANIMULES! Something new that I haven't seen before (it has been 2-3 years since my last visit) they had a wonderful 4-H section set up with some animals: a bunch of chickens, a bunch of turkeys (big dudes! take a look at my pics!) and a bunch of kids (both the goat kind and the human kind, all having fun mixing up with each other. RETAILING - DOWN TO BRASS TAX (NOT TACKS) Cost me about $20 for a very mixed bag of 38-40 apples (5-6 different varietals) - an excellent deal and better than my Safeway or Amazon-Whole Foods delivery options (plus I selected the apples myself!) Cost me about $50 for five (5) largish pumpkin varieties. Again, less the options I saw at Safeway or Trader Joes in my hood. Obviously, it's not cheap these days to do a half-day trip up the hill (and it's far less expensive to go to your local grocer to grab a pumkin. But it's for the outdoor experience and to clear some headspace AWAY from Sacramento. Also couple this with treks to 2 different local wineries, and a stop at the Taphouse Bar & Grill in Placerville before hitting the road back to SacTown, all the costs aggregate together in a fun overall trip! THE LOWDOWN O'Halloran's is still a great place to all sorts of fun, seasonal produce, smell some fresh air, and have a lot of fun while doing all that.

1 Star Really…read moredisappointing experience. We were charged an $8 fee, but some of the other people we were with weren't charged at all. When we got up to the shop, we asked about the fee and were initially told there is no charge. Once we explained that we had already been charged, the story suddenly changed and they tried to explain why the fee applied. I'm not sure if we were charged because we had kids with us, but that makes even less sense considering this is a place that advertises family activities like the pumpkin patch and petting zoo. The whole thing felt inconsistent and shady. If there's an $8 fee, fine, just clearly disclose it and charge everyone under the same rules. Don't tell customers there's no fee and then change the explanation after they show you they were charged. Very weird experience and honestly felt like a scam. We won't be coming back.
