1. The Yuba Yurt

9.6mi from Grass Valley · 1 site · Lodging

The Yuba Yurt is "glamping", or an idyllic remote working location, at its best. Carefully appointed "simplicity" immersed in Nature, but with stable high speed internet, situated equidistantly between the three forks of the "wild and scenic" Yuba River. Enjoy! THE SPACE Venture to the heart of Yuba river country and experience the rustic comfort of glamping in a 30’ pacific yurt. A remedy for “Nature Deficit Disorder”, this is your opportunity to taste the magic of simple living in the round. Located on the North San Juan ridge at the edge of Tahoe National Forest, endless outdoor activities abound. Enjoy incredible hiking, crystal-clear swimming holes and world-class mountain biking trails during summer and pristine snow-play areas away from the crowds during winter. Take in gorgeous scenic drives and numerous points of historical interest--including Malokoff Diggins--from California gold rush period. Discover the active gold mining town of Allegheny, the scenic beauty of Downieville or soak the afternoon away at Sierra Hot Springs in Sierraville. The village of Nevada city--with all it has to offer--is just 20 minutes away. Or simply relax... As much a nature blind as a dwelling, the yurt is located on 5 peaceful acres of mixed oak and madrone woodland with a filtered view of the Sierra foothills, a claw foot bath tub under the stars and much more. Light and airy with both propane and wood heat, the well-designed interior features a spacious kitchen, a comfy queen bed and a full bathroom. The kitchen is stocked for a cook with quality cooking equipment and is supplied with oils, sauces and spices. Tranquil and rustic, but with WiFi and a small streaming set-up, there are also games and plenty of good books. A perfect anytime retreat! THE AREA RiverSea East is located on the San Juan Ridge, an area near Nevada City and Grass Valley that extends about 24 miles between the south and middle forks of the Yuba River. A small Nevada County community far removed from town, modern day North San Juan is part hippie, part isolationist, part new age and part conservative.It's only a 20 minute drive from downtown Nevada City, but since you have to drive up and down the heavily forested, windy river-canyon road, it feels rather remote. When you get there, it consists of less than ten businesses scattered around the mountains, a bushel of dreadlocked hippies, a bunch of pot farms, a vineyard, and LOTS of empty, undeveloped wood, making North San Juan a really beautiful place, surrounded, as it is, by forested mountains and rivers. North San Juan is a great place to explore. There's all kinds of hidden spots, neat places to go, river access with good swimming holes and little stores and cafes. This area is spotted with little organic farms, beautiful little houses and the occasional run-down looking trailer.Farm, house OR trailer, because North San Juan and the Ridge are so sparsely populated, every residence seems to have acres of property that the people are free to plant, enjoy or neglect at will. OTHER IMPORTANT STUFF PETS: Your well-behaved dog is welcome with advanced permission and agreement to our pet policy for an additional $10.00 per night. As this is a wilderness area with abundant wildlife, do not let your dog wander outside at night unattended. NEVER leave your dog unattended at the yurt or let them roam unleashed in the woods. Neighbors will report dogs who bark incessantly. PARTIES and extra visitors are not allowed. Quiet time in the neighborhood is 10pm SAVE OUR ROAD SPEED is 10mph at all times.

This 30 ft diameter Pacific yurt sits on 5 private acres with an occupied family home and granny unit nearby. Strategic design and landscape provide privacy for all. Large pine, cedars and oaks surround the living areas and we have done clearing for fire safety without compromising the environment. There is an airconditioned bedroom inside, a sleeping loft with queen bed, a bath house with shower, connected by a deck in back and a small front covered patio. Access to the vegetable garden is included. We are happy to share summer vegetables. There are great night time sky views and sunsets as well. A new addition is a swamp cooler in the main room. The yurt is a lovely space.

17mi from Grass Valley · 9 sites · Lodging

We are an off-grid, solar-powered, 25-acre lakeside venue and permaculture-inspired, lifestyle-rich collaborative that is a retreat and event venue, and hosts guests for glamping. Heartland exists where the wilderness of off-grid life meets an artistic collective that sings possibility to the fringe dwellers of the Regenerative Eco-Village movement. Heartland offers everyone a break from the craziness of what so many call "Life" and a view of what can be co-created with each other for each other. As in permaculture, the Heartland model is about doing more with less, it's about allowing our individual and diverse natural Flow states to merge, forging new pathways of co-creation that are the true answer to our collective purpose. We invite teams and individuals to come to build through our Heartlander Work-Trade program or join retreats or workshops focused on one of our 4 Heartland Pillars: OuterWork - InnerWork - Transformation - Celebration. We hold harmony, creativity, innovation, connection, and shared leadership as core building blocks of our vision. Our private-membership based organization offers various levels of engagement. You've been called here, so we invite you to explore our tracks. The Heartland Collective is a prototype for a larger collective of regenerative communities where members can own shared equity in land and use a commonly held currency that interchanges between each location offering unique flexibility. *As of 1/1/2025 we do not have lake access. We have a pool, cold plunges, and various water features on-site and there is a really cool swimming hole near by.

Our second visit and the accommodations were even nicer than last. We enjoyed viewing the rural landscape from the cozy bed. The room had everything we needed including coffee, mugs, and a microwave. The town of Lincoln is slow paced and friendly. A soak in the hot tub was so relaxing. Great weekend getaway.

Weekend Trip to The Yuba Yurt

The Yuba Yurt was everything we wanted! The Yurt itself was great! It was very cozy and inviting, we were able to make ourselves right at home. We did encounter a frog or 2 but they were more than happy to be relocated. We were able to cook ourselves breakfast and dinner with ease thanks to the well stocked kitchen and outdoor grill. While the grill is small and a bit flimsy it definitely does the job! My wife got to enjoy a soak in the outdoor tub and enjoy the peace and quiet that comes with the location. If you follow the directions as provided you shouldn’t have any issue finding the Yurt. 10/10 will be back!

Loved our stay! Kelly was incredibly welcoming. We spent most of our time in the pool and had a beautiful evening grilling and enjoying the view. The drive in is pretty long but very scenic. We stopped at a flower farm on the way home and also saw some breweries and wineries we want to check out next time.

This Yurt was a fantastic escape- incredibly well stocked, comfortable bed, beautiful location! Finding the property was easy, and we were blown away by the nature we were able to witness on the property. The tree frog in the shower was a cute addition to our weekend too.

The view from the room (from the bed even!) was spectacular. Kelly’s place was a lovely, peaceful stay. The one-of-a-kind pool was so much fun and refreshing midday and the hot tub was great on a cool evening. Kelly was a great host and I can’t wait to go back!

We had a great time staying at Kelly's property. It checked all the boxes! Great views and lots of peace a quiet away from the city (except the squeals from the kids playing in the amazing pool and the cries from them that we had to leave). We were greeted warmly by Kelly who kindly provided a nice bottle of wine to celebrate my wife's birthday. That felt extra special. The accommodations were great, comfy bed, nice sized pullout for the kids, mini fridge and anything you'd need to enjoy a meal while there. We only stayed for 1 night but would have loved to have been able to stay longer!

My husband and I just stayed at the yurt for the second time in 7 years. The last time was in the first year of dating, and our first time away together. The yurt was just as magical the second time around, as a married couple. It has everything you need, is private, pet friendly and really close to the Yuba River and incredible swimming. Even though the temperature reached the high 90’s, it stayed fairly cool as it is shaded by trees and has fans to keep the air moving. The outdoor tub was a great feature. We will definitely be back!

Kelly and Mark both wonderful hosts. Thank you for sharing your beautiful property. So relaxing, calm and romantic. The refreshing pool, soothing hot tub and mesmerizing scenery overlooking acres of hills and nature. And the beautiful sunset is a chef's kiss. We'll be back, that's for sure.

My family and I enjoyed tent camping at tailwinds ranch. We loved the privacy and relaxation that the site provided. For those in our group that preferred cabin camping, the tiny home was super convenient. It was very clean and fully stocked with the basics as well as water and electricity. The owner is super responsive and helpful. This campsite is perfect for a larger group or multiple families. The place felt cozy and peaceful. 10/10 recommend!

This was our second time staying here, and we already want to come back again. The first time was in the winter — cozy vibes, evenings by the fireplace, board games, hot tub at sunset… it was perfect. This time we came in the summer and spent so much time outside — swimming in the pool during the day, relaxing in the hot tub at night. Completely different vibe, just as amazing. We noticed so many little improvements since our last stay. The yard is now fully fenced (huge plus for our dog who loves to explore), the fridge is bigger, and there are more than enough hangers now — Kelly really listens to feedback, and it shows. Even though the room is technically part of the main house, we felt like we had our own space the whole time. No shared areas, no awkward run-ins — just your own private entrance straight to the yard with all the awesome amenities. Kelly is a super thoughtful and welcoming host, always checking in to see if we needed anything. We love this place — peaceful, beautiful, and just feels good to be there. Can’t wait to come back 💖

Well besides the obvious (pool), I was greater very nicely and made comfortable. To my surprise I was given some delicious steak amd cheese sammich and home fries and salad which was epic cause I had been motocycle camping for a week already and haven't had a real meal. 😅 Superb hospitality and a comfy nestle id recommend.

Tailwinds had everything you needed with a super easy contactless check-in. The house was in a good shady spot with ample room for the dogs. The host left the AC on which was a super nice touch. We did turn it off as the temperature was very comfortable for us.

1 night at Serene Country Paradise

We had an amazing stay at Serene Country Paradise with our three dogs! The property is peaceful and spacious, with stunning views that made every morning and sunset feel magical. The room was incredibly spacious and had everything we needed, a comfy couch, TV, utensils, and all the little touches that made it feel like home. The bed was especially beautiful, comfortable and perfectly placed to face the door, so we could wake up to the most breathtaking view right from under the covers. So peaceful! The bathroom was spotless and fully stocked with fresh towels and all the essential amenities, which we really appreciated. We also used the BBQ grill, which made for a great outdoor sunset dinner. Our dogs had the best time running around and soaking up the open space, it’s such a welcoming and pet-friendly spot. We spent most of the day swimming in the pool, which was a highlight! We didn’t get around to using the hot tub since we were so relaxed (and tired!) after swimming, but it’s definitely on our list for next time. The beautiful horses on the property were the cherry on top, so gentle and peaceful, they really added to the serene atmosphere. This place truly lives up to its name, and we can’t wait to come back. Highly recommend for anyone looking for a peaceful, dog-friendly escape with all the comforts of home!

Nestled in the rolling hills of wine country, with a stunning view of the valley, lies this beautiful home with a gorgeous swimming pool. Kelly greeted us as we arrived and was so wonderful and so accommodating. She showed us all the things to make sure we knew our way around and to feel comfortable. We felt at home and wished we had booked another night! The room stayed nice and cool during the warm weather and the bed was very comfortable and the softest bath towels I have ever felt! , We had a great night’s sleep. Would absolutely book again.
