Great property with everything you need for an enjoyable stay. Very close to both Nevada City & Grass Valley. We came for the Christmas festivities and were not disappointed. Great little hiking trail at the back of the property and backyard was fully fenced & very dog friendly.the host, Robert, was very responsive and answered all our questions in a short time. Would highly recommend a stay here if you are looking for a quiet retreat.

Cabin in Nevada City

The cabin was clean, convenient to town and fairly quiet. There is a walking trail behind the property. There is a nice porch to sit outside with rocking chairs.It was fully equipped with utensils, tea, coffee maker and snacks. The TV only had basic channels. There were no closets in the bedrooms. The yard is too overgrown to sit but there is a nice small bbq to grill. Overall, it was excellent and we enjoyed our 10 day stay very very much.

Great host

While I had this cabin booked for me and my dogs, one got sick and I wasn’t able to make the trip. Robert was extremely understanding and had great communication. He offered to refund the cleaning and dog deposit along with a free night when I rebook. Omgosh I was blown away, what a host! I will be rebooking this property in the near future.

Just Right

Everything was as advertised. The cabin was clean and ready when we arrived. We never turned on the TV, but we did use our travel Bluetooth speaker. We chose the downstairs bedroom, even though it has the smaller bed, because the view out the windows is superior. Our dog loved the yard and chilling on the porch. The RV was not there during our stay, so all was quiet and private. It was just right for us!
