It was an absolutely amazing stay. Mai and her husband were so kind and welcoming, it was nice having people who made us feel welcomed and allowed us to have our family in their home. Waking up and hearing the chickens each morning along with seeing a beautiful horse outside your window, was quite the treat! This place has made us fall in love with Nevada City, along with Bullards Bar Reservior, which is where we spent a lot of our time at as well during the stay. We'd stay again! 😊

Wonderful property, great house!

Our family had a great time at this property. Rural and quiet, the kids caught frogs and played with the chickens. Our dog loved it too. The house was great with a large, well stocked kitchen, open dining area, and lots of comfortable couches and chairs to plop down on to relax or read. Beds were comfortable, plenty of place for a large family to stretch out. Hot tub was great too. Mai was an excellent host. We liked the location as it provided a quieter, more rural experience, yet you are within 15 minutes to multiple swimming holes on the Yuba. Nevada City isn't too far if you need to run into town. Good spot to relax and swim in the river or to use as a jumping off point to ride bikes in Nevada City or Downieville. Would definitely recommend this property.

Secluded and peaceful

This home is absolutely beautiful and so relaxing. Tons of space. The hosts are friendly, responsive, and helpful. They even offered us fresh eggs. It rained a lot during our stay so use of the hottub did not happen, but it was clean and big enough for everyone. The stove was broken, but the owner let us know before hand and it will be repaired soon and didn't affect anything with us. The road to the property is windy and a ways out of Nevada City, but we didn't mind making the trip into town. Parking is a bit rough and there are houses close by, but everyone was quiet and respectful. It really is a hidden gem. We played games, enjoyed the claw foot tub, and had some great family time.

Perfect Annual Women’s Trip!

Our group of women have been getting together annually for 31 years. This is probably the most perfect place we have ever stayed. We loved the spacious house with so many beds!! It was comfortable & felt like our own home. The views across their multiple acre property were so relaxing - green fields, quivering aspen trees, pine trees, flowers. There is a pond in the middle of the property to add to the splendor. The kitchen is open, well equipped & made group cooking easy. There were lots of lounging around areas inside & outside on the porch. We saved food scraps to feed the chickens. Our dogs fell in love with Red, the resident dog & Ruby the gorgeous horse. LOTS of nearby hikes for us, interesting cultures spots & the small market down the street was super well stocked with organic produce, bulk items - anything you need! We will absolutely be back next year.

STUPENDOUS SERENITY

Before getting to the serenity, what really makes this VRBO special are the owners, Mai & Andrew, such delightful and thoughtful hosts. The house is very large and set on 4 acres of fenced land. Our 16 month old puppy had great fun exploring and guarding the land from incursions of geese and wild turkeys! It is so quiet. How delightful to be away from the hubbub and background noise of the burbs. And yet there is a hot tub, one of the essential conveniences of modern living! On the practical side, the kitchen is well-equipped, the beds comfortable, the house impeccably clean, and as a bonus, Mai has stocked the kitchen with all those condiments that are annoying to have to purchase on vacation. The fascinating Nevada City is only 15 miles away and we enjoyed the South Yuba State Park and the abandoned, well preserved, gold mining city at the Malakoff Diggins State Park. In summary, the perfect combination of relaxation and things to see! We slept so well in the serenity of the location, enjoyed relaxing on the wrap around deck overlooking the grounds and venturing forth to the places mentioned above. We hope to return.

I stayed at vacation rental for a wedding in the area. The house was amazing and had all the accommodations that we needed. The place is so peaceful and relaxing which we needed after our son's wedding. Mai the owner brought over fresh eggs in the morning, which was a blessing because we were so busy, we forgot to go shopping. If you are looking for peace and tranquility this is the perfect place.

Perfect break away from it all

We had a great stay. The location was perfect- about 25 mins from downtown Nevada City but also secluded so we could really get away from everyday life. The property was perfect. Lots of space for the kids and dogs to run around. The house was stocked with basic condiments and all the cookware you could need. Star gazing at night was spectacular. Mai was very attentive and a great host. Would definitely recommend and hope to stay here again in the future.
