Beautifully remodeled home with amazing forest views. Felt secluded yet close to Nevada City. Fiber wifi made remote work easy and the outdoor fire pit was a highlight.

Perfect Nevada City forest retreat for our family. Three bedrooms plus the downstairs flex room gave everyone space. Scotts Flat and the river were an easy drive.

Immaculate, quiet, and thoughtfully stocked. Smart lock check-in was seamless. We ordered Instacart and spent evenings on the balcony in the pines.

Spacious kitchen, laundry, and great outdoor spaces. Felt like a private cabin without giving up convenience to downtown Nevada City.
