The Yuba Yurt

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

Yuba River Retreat

This special land is part of a multi-parcel wildlife corridor, helping to provide valuable habitat between the state parks, along the creek and river. Out your doorstep, you'll find more than 15-miles of private, groomed, hiking, biking and horseback riding trails and have an opportunity to reconnect with nature.

Our solar-powered farmhouse overlooks the mountains and an organic orchard and garden, with two queen bedrooms lined with hand-milled sugar pine from the land, strong wifi/tv, waterfalls, and private network of trails to hike or bike. Walk to refreshing creek swimming hole or private Yuba river swimming access available at certain times. Included in your stay is seasonal organic produce to gather out your doorstep in our family's organic garden and hammocks to relax in under the fruit treas and at the creek.

To get to the sandy beach and creek spot, called Barkhouse Beach, take an easy stroll through the forest. The nearby Barkhouse, close to the creek, is a reconstruction of a typical Maidu Indian dwelling. Walk inside to experience the traditional history of this land.

Or cool off in the Yuba River at the South Yuba River State Park, just a 5-minute drive from the farmhouse. Ask about accommodating additional guests.

They are both so generous! The campsite beautiful and they did a very nice job supplying us with any materials we may need. Definitely coming back during the summer!"

Had a nice evening lounging and chatting :)

The Pioneer Trail is a 5-minute walk from the cabin. It's 25 mile long trail that weaves through dense forests and ice cold rivers, with sweeping views and complete privacy. On our 10-mile run, we didn't bump into a single person.

Victoria Forest

This area is part of a rich history showcasing the westward expansion, gold mining and simple pursuits. Just step outside the cabin to access miles of single track through the Tahoe national forest, or jump in your car to access lakes, rivers and streams within a 10 minute drive. Snowboarding and; skiing is a 25 minute drive away and snowshoeing and; cross country skiing can start right off the front deck!

Come relax in your own private off grid cabin with a cozy loft and a view of Tahoe National Forest. At just over 5,000 feet in elevation and a dirt road drive Muir's Muse is the perfect place to disconnect.

The cabin has a great little deck that gets tons of sun. (And at night it makes for a good stargazing platform!)

The big cabin windows get direct sunlight in the afternoon. You wouldn't expect there to be as much light as there is, considering you're in the middle of the woods.

The loft sleeps two people comfortably, and has a great view of the site.

Towering trees make the cabin look miniature.

Getting the fire going just as the sun starts to dip behind the trees.

The main floor of the cabin has a comfy futon that folds open to sleep two people.

A view of beautiful Emigrant Gap in the Sierra Nevadas, just west of Donner Pass. You'll see this just before you turn off for the cabin.

Roasting dogs on the fire. The pit rocks hold sticks perfectly.

Cutting up some fruit at the picnic table for breakfast bowls.
