Gorgeous forested ten-acre land with great access to to the Yuba River, American River, hiking, biking, Historical Nevada City, Grass Valley, and more. Our charming and secluded retreat is nestled in the heart of nature, offering the perfect escape if you are seeking tranquility and a connection with the great outdoors. Bask under the breathtaking stars at night and feel the healing effect of nature all around you during your stay. You can visit the historical Empire Mine, The National Hotel, or the Nevada Theater (the first Theater in California). Or just chill up here. It's nice and quiet! Enjoy the simplicity and privacy that a public campground doesn't offer. Earth Castle is also a great place for groups! Plenty of space! We can support pull-through sites for RVs, space for Tents, and room for multiple cars. Your host is passionate about stewarding this beautiful land. She is an author and Evolutionary Astrologer. Interested in having an astrology reading while you are here? Message Anna-Thea and, schedule permitting, she would love to give you a reading!

In the pines
Great location close to the towns of Grass Valley and Nevada City. The site is very peaceful and nestled in the pines. The host greeted me and my pup and was very nice.

I had a two night retreat on my own at this beautiful place. The yurt was very comfortable. Anna-Thea was very kind, helpful and communicative. I ended up having an astrological reading that was very interesting and fun. She was wonderful. I truly cherished my short time at this beautiful piece of land.

Incredibly healing!
Oh gosh, there’s so much I could say about this beautiful space. It was such a serene experience, so peaceful and relaxing. This was my first time camping in a yurt and I was absolutely obsessed! It was so spacious! And you can tell Anna Thea took her time to create a very intentional spiritual space. We loved the outdoor kitchen too. It was stocked with everything we needed. I will say if you are traveling with a larger group, it’d be good to bring extra cookware / plates. It was just me and my husband, so it worked out perfectly for us :) Another perk was the level of privacy, which truly created an intimate and personal experience. We got to just lounge outside in the hammock, reading books and admiring all that nature had to offer. We saw wild turkeys, butterflies, woodpeckers, and other lovely birds. Oh and the stars! Wow! What a view! It was like a painting. Thank you so much Anna Thea for letting us stay here! We will definitely be back in the future :)

My go-to get away place
Always a peaceful place to unplug. The energy is good.. the hostess is non intrusive.. the amenities are perfect. Thank you Anna-Thea for another birth-month experience of tranquility and regeneration.

We were a family of 3 with a dog who stayed in the yurt for 2 nights. The yurt was very roomy and had lights, fan and electrical outlets. The kitchen shed had an electrical stove, coffee with coffee maker, sink with running water, seating area and pots and pans. We brought our own camping stove and other cooking equipment and there was plenty of counter space to set things up. There was an additional picnic table and chairs around a gas fire pit (separate charge). The property also has tiny house, but it's set on the other side of the house, so we did not have any issues with privacy. Anna-Thea is a very good host and was very responsive and there for any help we needed. At this time of the year there was a lot of mosquitos, so bringing bug spray is an absolute must. The toilet situation with a bucket is a little tricky and you won't want to share with any other group other than immediate family. Nearest store is at Grass Valley a 20 min drive away. The yurt is in a very secluded forested area and we had a lot of fun exploring the property walking and with our bikes. I'll recommend the stay here and if the toilet situation was improved I would give it 100%.
