This property is so cute. We've stayed here several times. Close to Nevada City, quiet and even has cute nature trail to the railroad museum on the property. Some of the rooms are a little older but I see they are actively replacing furniture and updating rooms since we've first started coming here. For the price it's excellent.

Paid a lot for what ended up feeling like a motel 6 experience… disappointing and wish we’d just picked the cheapest room or tried another spot.

Love the quiet atmosphere & the amazing scenery. What I didn’t like is the old smell in the room & it was clean but not completely. Dishwasher & coffee machine did not work, there was only one remote for 2 tvs & the oven was dirty. That being said we hv stayed 2 separate time & enjoy ourselves each time & plan to go back with the family in November. Just needs small tweaks.

Safety is important to the staff. There's a small waterfall and a lot of blackberries to pick. There's also a meadow with a lake. It's not a fancy hotel and somewhat dated but the staff is wonderful. The rooms are clean, the beds are comfortable and the price is right. There's internet access and its walking distance from Nevada City. This is the second time I have stayed there and I would stay there again.

Cabin was dilapidated, filthy with mold Furniture was disgusting with mismatched couch cushions, rips in the fabric, broken chairs. The kitchen was worthless because it had absolutely nothing. Not even a fork. Not that it was clean enough to cook in anyway Hair in the bathroom, shampoo was missing, toilet was not even bolted to the floor. This place should be condemned....

There were guest staying there methamphetamines, they hit and run my two friends cars with sever damage needing to deal with police reports and there was no compensation to our experience. Also both cabins we rented we in rough shape, smelled of cigarette smoke and dirty as well as no accommodations of pots, pans or cutlery for the kitchen in our cabins. It's a great location but needs to provide a clean and safe environment for their customers in order for us to return again.

I had checked out this hotel ahead. they gave me a newly refurbished room, it was quiet and clean. Its a short drive to downtown. I didn't walk it but i believe you can. I was attending an event at navada fairgrounds in grass valley it was perfect just 10 mins.
