Quincy is a railroad town and the train runs up this beautiful river canyon on its way through the Sierra Nevada Range. Note: If you are adverse to trains then this is probably not a property for you. We love it and enjoy the history that goes along with it.
Spring and fall offer excellent trout fishing in front of the property; and can be a fly fisherman's paradise at times. Just minutes from the town of Quincy, the home is private, yet as close to civilization as you want to be.
