The house was as described and very quiet and secluded, just what we were looking for! It is very comfortable but some of the finishes in the house are a little tired, some blinds broken, no hand towels or washcloths were provided. That aside, the setting is beautiful and relaxing, the kitchen well organized and the couches and beds are comfortable. If you are looking for a mountain house with great views and quiet, this property is a good choice!

Great mountain retreat

This property was perfect for our two family vacation. There was plenty of room, we didn't feel like we were on top of each other. Wonderful views and a nice patio area with a fire pit.

Sadly, this June 2026, we discovered that this house with an amazing view was seriously infested with mice. At first, I noticed little things, like that it wasn't very clean, there were crumbs on the counter when we arrived, and some of the large cooking utensils had old food caked all over them- I mean all over them. I overlooked several signs of neglect of the property because it was comparatively cheap with a lovely view. We brought our two young children who played all over the floor there... for the first two days. My children even found 2 fluffly nest things. We soon realized who these nests belonged to.End of 2nd day/ 3rd night, my husband saw multiple mice running back and forth in the kitchen... pooping all over the kitchen counters and around our sealed kitchen goods. We were both awake most of the night because, weirdly, these mice were so loud, scratching, digging and whatnot, all over the house, it was totally overwhelming. In the morning, it took mere mintues to realize there was poop in many corners of the house and that we had to leave immediately. When I informed the owner, Alex, he apologized and said he would give us a full refund. APPROPRIATE. Strangely, after Alex conferred with VRBO, we received a very cool, formally worded response, that after consideration, we will be given 50% of the refund. Though we now bear the risk of rodent borne illness and had the massive stress of finding another place totally last minute. Steer clear of this risky rental.

Private & Spacious

This was a special place to spend the weekend. 3 kiddos (5, 3.5, 2.5) and their parents made this place a home. We spent a lot of time on the back porch and in the downstairs area. If we visited again we’d bring a baby gate for the top of the staircase just for some extra comfort with our littles. Could easily put a pack in play in every room and many upstairs. One of us had to stream a class one morning and the WiFi gave her no problems. Plenty of space for games, crafting and cooking large meals. The sun room in the front was a special secret garden! We brought scooters hoping the kiddos could utilize the driveway, unfortunately the mountainside is much too steep to let any of the kiddos loose. There was plenty of space for them to do other things though and they loved every bit! Very close to both Grass Valley and Nevada City, we would love to stay again.

The property was great - a little strangely laid out. The driveway is super steep and narrow.
