Excellent little nook in the woods
This property was one of those memorable properties that we always hope that we get when we see the pictures and read the information. It’s just as it said. Totally set up very comfortable rooms and supplied with every creature comfort. The little porches of extra bonus. They were a full when we reached out, but the extra bed in the living room was not obvious nor in any of the materials, but the coffee table doubles as the second bed. I’m not a huge fan of soft beds and the one in the main bedroom was pretty soft. I’m sure some people find that very cozy but I’m a firm bed person. That was easily repaired with the pullout bed. There were no directions on how to pull it out and we are both pretty handy. You might ask them if you need it. I didn’t see it in the info book, but it was quite comfortable. The hosts were lovely too leave us a bottle of wine and little treats and it was so cozy for our little getaway and a family gathering. We would absolutely return. It’s a lucky find.

Cozy get away
Cottage was great. Nice and quiet. Close to Nevada City but located in an area that allowed you to feel secluded.

Cute cottage in the woods
This is the perfect place to stay near Nevada city. You feel like you are out in the woods, but you are actually close to town and the hiking trails. The cottage was very cozy and extremely well equipped. The owners were very responsive to our requests. The place is perfect for a couple and we hope to return again soon.

A Walker’s Paradise
Walk out the door and turn right and you can walk a ¼ mile to the Deer Creek Tribute Trail, a lovely hike. Turn left out the door and you are an easy ½ mile walk from downtown Nevada City and all its restaurants and stores. I stayed for a week and walked everywhere, never moving my car.
The property is cute, clean and comfortable. The screened porch is a peaceful spot to unwind, though I was here at the wrong time of year to enjoy it properly. I hope to be back in the spring. Betsy is a wonderful host. She has obviously put a lot of thought into her guest’s needs.
I highly recommend this property.
