Perfect location for me because it was quiet and private. This is a unique and beautiful neighborhood bordering BLM forest. This small home has a very comfortable floorplan, beds, seating and great amenities. Loved the kitchen appliances. The owner is very welcoming and helpful.

We're originally from San Francisco, and love sharing the beauty of this area with others. We enjoy going down to the North Fork American River,hiking, cooking, stargazing, etc., and being a host lets me meet wonderful people and help them create memorable experiences in nature. It’s all about making sure you feel at home while you explore and unwind!
