Host profile image
I love creating beautiful and peaceful spaces, and sharing these retreats with others.

Why they chose this property

Nevada City is a gem of a small town, with a thriving local culture and some of the best surrounding nature that California has to offer.

What makes this property unique

I tried to think of what guests would enjoy in everything that I did to create this retreat. There are endless books to peruse, a saltwater hot tub, movie projector + big screen, games, as well as the majestic, quiet beauty of the forest and the neighborhood. Fun optional on-site experiences such as massage, sound baths, chef-prepared meals, cooking and baking classes come to you and let you get to know some of our wonderful local creatives and our culture.
