Escape to a private 45 acres of a restored 100-year-old gold mining site, this glamping retreat offers a rare blend of history, seclusion, and modern comfort. Located just outside Nevada City in the heart of the Sierra Nevada foothills, you’re only 20 minutes from Grass Valley and Colfax—yet it feels a world away.
Once a working gold mine, the land is now being thoughtfully restored to its natural beauty. Your glamping space is nestled among forested tailings and old diggings, where rugged textures meet curated simplicity. Expect a setting that feels both grounded and elevated—rustic, yet refined.
Unplug and unwind beneath an expansive canopy of stars, surrounded by quiet woodland and echoes of Gold Rush history. This is a place for slow mornings, golden hour walks, and evenings at camp.
Beyond the property, adventure is at your fingertips. Explore the crystal-clear waters of the Yuba River, discover nearby alpine lakes, or take a day trip to Lake Tahoe, with 1 hour to Truckee. Wander through historic towns filled with boutique shops, renowned restaurants, and local wineries. Paddleboard nearby Rollings Lake or Scotts Flat, hiking, climbing, and scenic walks are all within easy reach.
Whether you’re seeking a romantic escape, creative retreat, or a quiet reset in nature, this is Gold Country glamping at its most intentional—private, peaceful, and distinctly memorable.
