This magical and private Yurt in the woods are just 2 miles from Nevada City
Come experience the Beauty of the Sierra Foothills and the Yuba River in our Yurts tucked into the forest just 2 miles from downtown Nevada City.
With a natural creek right outside your door and hiking trails right off the deck, this serene and beautiful yurt retreat awaits you.
Nevada City is renowned for its excellent food, shopping, nightlife and farmer’s market. A leisurely walk into town takes 45 mins, bike in 15 or drive in 5.
Grass Valley is 10 minutes away as well and has more food, shopping, and entertainment for you.
Access to the Yuba River is as close as 20 mins to Edwards Crossing and 20 mins to Hoyts Crossing on Highway 49.
We absolutely recommend trying to stay for two or more nights so that you can get accustomed to the space, learn the property, settle in, and relax.
Each yurt has a wood-fired stove inside with plenty of wood stacked to keep you warm.
Each yurt has a kitchen that is fully equipped with a hot plate, toaster oven, microwave, refrigerator, cutlery, pots and pans, grill, etc.
Each yurt has a Queen bed with a heating blanket to help keep you cozy throughout the night.
Each yurt has its own dedicated wood-fired hot tub. It requires a fire to be lit and maintained to keep it hot.
Things you might like to bring: headlamps, robe, flip flops, slippers, hiking shoes.
Water: we are on a well and provide fresh drinking water in a container for you. It’s fine to drink, cook, and bathe with the water from the tap but it can have a minerally quality to it. We test the well annually.
We provide filtered water but if it runs out, the water out of the tap is safe and delicious.
The hot tub: it’s wood fired. This means you have to heat it with a fire to get it hot. This can take many hours to get to the right temperature. It’s a good idea to start a fire right when you get there! This tub may have leaves in it (they fall from above) and cloudy water. The water should NOT smell, the cloudiness is a part of the cedar tubs charm- ash from the fire and particulate from the cedar mix together. We treat it between guests with natural products that maintain the wood (you can’t use chlorine in these tubs). We clean it regularly. Shower before using it to wash off any oils please! The outdoor shower is lovely :)
Fireplace: We will leave you a bundle of wood that comes with the rental. If you need more wood you can purchase it from us or from the grocery store. We have lots of wood at the yurt and we ask you to pay $10 per bundle if you use more then we leave you inside. This is on the honor system- It takes a lot of time and resources to keep wood stocked for the property. If you don’t know how to start a fire you may want to bring an instant log with you. Please leave the lighter behind for the next guest.
Sleep: we have a heating blanket for cold nights, It’s about 10 degrees cooler on our land than in town. This is a real treat during our hot summers. There will be a fan for you as well during the warm season.
We live in the woods, there are bugs and wild animals on/or near the property. This is part of the country charm and should be expected. Please don't leave food outside.
Land acknowledgment:
We acknowledge that our property is located on unceeded land. It is the traditional homeland of the Nisenan tribe. The Nisenan tribe is alive and active and continues to fight for federal recognition and compensation for land loss.
We donate 10% of AIRBB proceeds between CHIRP which promotes the history and culture of the Nisenan tribe.

Welcome to Oracle Oak Grove
Oracle Oak is located in the Oak Savannas, in Nisenan territory, in Nevada City California.
Home of the Nisenan Rancheria Natives, the Deer Creek Watershed.
Currently stewarding these lands are some very hand crafty & gardening witches.
We are stewards of this land, graciously grateful to grow food such as corn, broomcorn, pumpkins, flowers, and watermelons under the sun.
This land is located less than 20 mins to multiple different Yuba River access points. We are also located in the Armpit of Nevada county with 3 access ways 15 mins each way to Grass Valley, Nevada City or Penn Valley.
The neighborhood of this area is also one of the more safer bike friendlier places, you can ride into town along the NID trails, or set up camp and head up the 20HWY less than 20 mins to enjoy Epic Mountain Biking Trails.
Not only are we crafty, but also nature enthusiasts to feel free to reach out and ask about fun things to do here, if you are looking to stay busy exploring the nature. We also have a beautiful sunset hike that overlooks some beautiful views.
Oracle Oak Grove has a wide variety of camping options.
We have a camp grounds on the lower end of the property that currently hosts 4 different camp sites. the 3 May Pole zone, and 1 Faerie fields.
There is one shared Bonfire zone that can be used for friends camping together during the spring and late fall months when we are not in fire season.
We love hosting groups and birthday parties. Also individual campers as well.
We have two yurts available if you are more into the Glamping experience or especially if camping in the winter.
The Witches Hut and The Little Witch Hut!
The Witches Hut which is larger and can fit a family of 3 or 4.
This hut includes a patio, grill, and Private entrance.
The Little Witch Hut is smaller and more suitable for a couple or a single person wanting some solo retreat time. This one has cooking amenities accessible in an outdoor kitchen just outside the yurt. This one also gets better access to the Starlink available on the property. This yurt has the compost toilet outside and is a less than minute walk to it.
Both yurts have the ability to park fairly close to them and both are fully furnished. The Yurts are available for a higher expense than the camping of course.
We are sorry to say that Hot tub season is now closed.
We do have a wood-fired Cedar Hot tub, she is our Cauldron she is only available during winter and very early spring visits. I am sorry, but due to fire season and her being wood-fired she is not available outside hot tub season.
If you are interested in the experience it requires advanced noticed as well as an extra charge for wood, cleaning, and tending. She is a labor of love, and such a unique experience. Enjoy the smell of cedar, chlorine free waters under the stars.
Enjoy and hopefully you come and experience the Magic we have made Stewarding these acres.
PLEASE come check in before DARK. We are in a very Rural Area and it can be difficult to see a night where to park and camp. We have pathways and lights to guide, but there is a DESIGNATED parking zone and a cart available to carry your stuff to your CAMPSITE. This is not a CAR Camping spot there is ONE car camping site and the rest you is a very short walk to your site. Thank you.

Zen Yurt in Murphys
16. Zen Yurt in Murphys
43mi from Pollock Pines · 1 site
We have a beautiful 45-acre slice of foothill forest-meets-town life to offer, with a glamping experience built around a Japanese bathhouse vibe and a lot of DIY determination.
The yurt sits next to a "spa garden," a serene wellness area with a sauna, Japanese soaking tub (ofuro), garden nooks, and a Japanese bathhouse-style setup. Almost everything out here is host-built—even the bricks in the bathhouse were hand-hewn. Soak as long as you like, breathe the pine air, and let your nervous system defrag.
While the yurt and spa garden sit on the edge of a forest, you’re still only about a 10-minute walk to Main Street Murphys—a ridiculously cute Gold Country town with tasting rooms, great food, indie shops, and a surprisingly legit live music scene. It’s wine country with small-town energy. Maybe what Napa was like in the ’60s?
Because we sit right on the border of town and forest, you’ll get a real blend of sounds: wind in the trees, coyotes in the field, and owl calls at night… plus the sounds of kids playing in the churchyard and a dog down the way. It’s not deep-wilderness silent—more “edge-of-town retreat” quiet.
For exploring, you can hike straight from the property up our hill—Rocky Hill, as locals know it. It’s a fun, scrambly wander with big views, and it also taps into the area’s Gold Rush history: you’ll find caves and old miner ruins along the way.
Come for glamping comfort, backcountry vibes, and town tacos within strolling distance!

Nestled in the forested hills just outside Nevada City, Still Moon Ranch offers peaceful, private luxury yurt stays with easy access to town and the river. We’re 7 minutes from downtown Nevada City, 13 minutes from Grass Valley, and roughly 15-20 minutes from multiple access points to the Yuba River.
You’ll feel worlds away from everything — surrounded by oaks, pines, and cedars — yet you’re close enough to grab dinner, explore shops, or catch live music in town. Still Moon Ranch is designed for rest, connection, and quiet. This is not a party property. We value the peaceful atmosphere of the land and our surrounding neighbors, so loud gatherings, amplified music, and late-night noise aren’t a fit here.
Each yurt is designed with simplicity and ease in mind—from the private hot tub and outdoor shower to the open lounge areas. Inside, you’ll find a king bed, kitchenette, and spa-inspired bathroom—plus heating, A/C, and a gas fireplace for year round comfort.
****Please note: during late summer and early fall, the neighboring organic cannabis farm can bring some strong seasonal aromas—most guests don’t mind, but we like to give a heads-up.****
Please read the house rules before booking:
• Quiet Retreat Vibe: This is a restful, nature-focused space—no loud music, excessive drinking, drugs or parties.
• Absolutely no smoking, candles, or barbecues- we live in an extremely high fire area.

This magical and private Yurt in the woods are just 2 miles from Nevada City
Come experience the Beauty of the Sierra Foothills and the Yuba River in our Yurts tucked into the forest just 2 miles from downtown Nevada City.
With a natural creek right outside your door and hiking trails right off the deck, this serene and beautiful yurt retreat awaits you.
Nevada City is renowned for its excellent food, shopping, nightlife and farmer’s market. A leisurely walk into town takes 45 mins, bike in 15 or drive in 5.
Grass Valley is 10 minutes away as well and has more food, shopping, and entertainment for you.
Access to the Yuba River is as close as 20 mins to Edwards Crossing and 20 mins to Hoyts Crossing on Highway 49.
We absolutely recommend trying to stay for two or more nights so that you can get accustomed to the space, learn the property, settle in, and relax.
Each yurt has a wood-fired stove inside with plenty of wood stacked to keep you warm.
Each yurt has a kitchen that is fully equipped with a hot plate, toaster oven, microwave, refrigerator, cutlery, pots and pans, grill, etc.
Each yurt has a Queen bed with a heating blanket to help keep you cozy throughout the night.
Each yurt has its own dedicated wood-fired hot tub. It requires a fire to be lit and maintained to keep it hot.
Things you might like to bring: headlamps, robe, flip flops, slippers, hiking shoes.
Water: we are on a well and provide fresh drinking water in a container for you. It’s fine to drink, cook, and bathe with the water from the tap but it can have a minerally quality to it. We test the well annually.
We provide filtered water but if it runs out, the water out of the tap is safe and delicious.
The hot tub: it’s wood fired. This means you have to heat it with a fire to get it hot. This can take many hours to get to the right temperature. It’s a good idea to start a fire right when you get there! This tub may have leaves in it (they fall from above) and cloudy water. The water should NOT smell, the cloudiness is a part of the cedar tubs charm- ash from the fire and particulate from the cedar mix together. We treat it between guests with natural products that maintain the wood (you can’t use chlorine in these tubs). We clean it regularly. Shower before using it to wash off any oils please! The outdoor shower is lovely :)
Fireplace: We will leave you a bundle of wood that comes with the rental. If you need more wood you can purchase it from us or from the grocery store. We have lots of wood at the yurt and we ask you to pay $10 per bundle if you use more then we leave you inside. This is on the honor system- It takes a lot of time and resources to keep wood stocked for the property. If you don’t know how to start a fire you may want to bring an instant log with you. Please leave the lighter behind for the next guest.
Sleep: we have a heating blanket for cold nights, It’s about 10 degrees cooler on our land than in town. This is a real treat during our hot summers. There will be a fan for you as well during the warm season.
We live in the woods, there are bugs and wild animals on/or near the property. This is part of the country charm and should be expected. Please don't leave food outside.
Land acknowledgment:
We acknowledge that our property is located on unceeded land. It is the traditional homeland of the Nisenan tribe. The Nisenan tribe is alive and active and continues to fight for federal recognition and compensation for land loss.
We donate 10% of AIRBB proceeds between CHIRP which promotes the history and culture of the Nisenan tribe.

Welcome to Oracle Oak Grove
Oracle Oak is located in the Oak Savannas, in Nisenan territory, in Nevada City California.
Home of the Nisenan Rancheria Natives, the Deer Creek Watershed.
Currently stewarding these lands are some very hand crafty & gardening witches.
We are stewards of this land, graciously grateful to grow food such as corn, broomcorn, pumpkins, flowers, and watermelons under the sun.
This land is located less than 20 mins to multiple different Yuba River access points. We are also located in the Armpit of Nevada county with 3 access ways 15 mins each way to Grass Valley, Nevada City or Penn Valley.
The neighborhood of this area is also one of the more safer bike friendlier places, you can ride into town along the NID trails, or set up camp and head up the 20HWY less than 20 mins to enjoy Epic Mountain Biking Trails.
Not only are we crafty, but also nature enthusiasts to feel free to reach out and ask about fun things to do here, if you are looking to stay busy exploring the nature. We also have a beautiful sunset hike that overlooks some beautiful views.
Oracle Oak Grove has a wide variety of camping options.
We have a camp grounds on the lower end of the property that currently hosts 4 different camp sites. the 3 May Pole zone, and 1 Faerie fields.
There is one shared Bonfire zone that can be used for friends camping together during the spring and late fall months when we are not in fire season.
We love hosting groups and birthday parties. Also individual campers as well.
We have two yurts available if you are more into the Glamping experience or especially if camping in the winter.
The Witches Hut and The Little Witch Hut!
The Witches Hut which is larger and can fit a family of 3 or 4.
This hut includes a patio, grill, and Private entrance.
The Little Witch Hut is smaller and more suitable for a couple or a single person wanting some solo retreat time. This one has cooking amenities accessible in an outdoor kitchen just outside the yurt. This one also gets better access to the Starlink available on the property. This yurt has the compost toilet outside and is a less than minute walk to it.
Both yurts have the ability to park fairly close to them and both are fully furnished. The Yurts are available for a higher expense than the camping of course.
We are sorry to say that Hot tub season is now closed.
We do have a wood-fired Cedar Hot tub, she is our Cauldron she is only available during winter and very early spring visits. I am sorry, but due to fire season and her being wood-fired she is not available outside hot tub season.
If you are interested in the experience it requires advanced noticed as well as an extra charge for wood, cleaning, and tending. She is a labor of love, and such a unique experience. Enjoy the smell of cedar, chlorine free waters under the stars.
Enjoy and hopefully you come and experience the Magic we have made Stewarding these acres.
PLEASE come check in before DARK. We are in a very Rural Area and it can be difficult to see a night where to park and camp. We have pathways and lights to guide, but there is a DESIGNATED parking zone and a cart available to carry your stuff to your CAMPSITE. This is not a CAR Camping spot there is ONE car camping site and the rest you is a very short walk to your site. Thank you.

Zen Yurt in Murphys
16. Zen Yurt in Murphys
43mi from Pollock Pines · 1 site
We have a beautiful 45-acre slice of foothill forest-meets-town life to offer, with a glamping experience built around a Japanese bathhouse vibe and a lot of DIY determination.
The yurt sits next to a "spa garden," a serene wellness area with a sauna, Japanese soaking tub (ofuro), garden nooks, and a Japanese bathhouse-style setup. Almost everything out here is host-built—even the bricks in the bathhouse were hand-hewn. Soak as long as you like, breathe the pine air, and let your nervous system defrag.
While the yurt and spa garden sit on the edge of a forest, you’re still only about a 10-minute walk to Main Street Murphys—a ridiculously cute Gold Country town with tasting rooms, great food, indie shops, and a surprisingly legit live music scene. It’s wine country with small-town energy. Maybe what Napa was like in the ’60s?
Because we sit right on the border of town and forest, you’ll get a real blend of sounds: wind in the trees, coyotes in the field, and owl calls at night… plus the sounds of kids playing in the churchyard and a dog down the way. It’s not deep-wilderness silent—more “edge-of-town retreat” quiet.
For exploring, you can hike straight from the property up our hill—Rocky Hill, as locals know it. It’s a fun, scrambly wander with big views, and it also taps into the area’s Gold Rush history: you’ll find caves and old miner ruins along the way.
Come for glamping comfort, backcountry vibes, and town tacos within strolling distance!

Nestled in the forested hills just outside Nevada City, Still Moon Ranch offers peaceful, private luxury yurt stays with easy access to town and the river. We’re 7 minutes from downtown Nevada City, 13 minutes from Grass Valley, and roughly 15-20 minutes from multiple access points to the Yuba River.
You’ll feel worlds away from everything — surrounded by oaks, pines, and cedars — yet you’re close enough to grab dinner, explore shops, or catch live music in town. Still Moon Ranch is designed for rest, connection, and quiet. This is not a party property. We value the peaceful atmosphere of the land and our surrounding neighbors, so loud gatherings, amplified music, and late-night noise aren’t a fit here.
Each yurt is designed with simplicity and ease in mind—from the private hot tub and outdoor shower to the open lounge areas. Inside, you’ll find a king bed, kitchenette, and spa-inspired bathroom—plus heating, A/C, and a gas fireplace for year round comfort.
****Please note: during late summer and early fall, the neighboring organic cannabis farm can bring some strong seasonal aromas—most guests don’t mind, but we like to give a heads-up.****
Please read the house rules before booking:
• Quiet Retreat Vibe: This is a restful, nature-focused space—no loud music, excessive drinking, drugs or parties.
• Absolutely no smoking, candles, or barbecues- we live in an extremely high fire area.
•Cooking highly aromatic greasy foods like steak, fish, bacon and sausage is not permitted; the grease and food smells are extremely difficult to remove.
•No shoes inside- we encourage you to bring slippers!
•No eating in bed. Two dining areas are provided for your use. Food in bed can cause stains, and we strive to maintain high-quality linens for all guests.
Dogs on the Property:
You may encounter our dog, Otis (a medium-sized goldendoodle), or our neighbor’s golden retriever, Raffi, during your stay. Otis may bark when meeting new people, but both dogs are very gentle and friendly. Feel free to say hello—or simply ignore them—and they’ll wander off.
We acknowledge that Still Moon Ranch is located on the ancestral and unceded homelands of the Nisenan Tribe. We honor the Nisenan people, past, present, and emerging, and recognize their enduring relationship with this land.

Weekend Trip to The Land: An Off-grid Refuge
We loved staying at The Manzanita bus! The host Rachel was so friendly and helpful when it came to things around the bus even helped us start a warm fire ! The shower and compost toilet were right around the side of the bus so no walking far during the night. The stove was easy to use and having warm water in the sink and shower was a plus! We had an amazing time and would love to stay here again! 100% would recommend to anyone looking for a cozy private place to stay!

What an amazing slice of nature paradise.
An amazing setup, just miles from town that feels like a remote getaway.
So much work and thoughtful touches put in to this property.
Feel graced if you get the chance to stay.

2 nights at Foothills Yurt Glamping
2nd time at this place and loved it! We’ve now stayed there in the summer and the winter and it was great both trips. This time it poured outside and the interior was still well heated and comfy to be in. We were amazed at how it was still incredibly clean and showed little signs of any wear from the last trip, so the hosts definitely keep it in great shape. Looking forward to coming back for a 3rd trip!

This was the most fun quick getaway for our families! Exactly as described, beautifully maintained property, incredible hosts. High end blankets and towels, very clean dry flush toilet, and so many cozy seating options. My kids loved the welcome shed, and there were too many thoughtful personal touches to mention.
The location is incredible. we explored grass Valley and Nevada city, both had a great selection of well appointed shops and restaurants and were less than a 15 minute drive from the property. We can’t wait to come back in the summer!

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.

Bobby's skills and his creativeness shine through with he has accomplished thus far. Sage Camp is a true piece of art as well as a comfortable atmosphere. Bobby's vision for Sage Camp is amazing. I had a fabulous stay.

This was my third time here and the site continues to get better. The second toilet they added is top notch as well as the outdoor shower. Can't wait to see how it continues to evolve. Will definitely be back, again!

we visited in early october. it's a great spot and jo is a responsive accommodating host! the sunset views were beautiful and a morning soak in the hot tub was excellent. light bedding is provided, so would recommend bringing your own sleeping bag or a heavy comforter for warmth if temps are a bit cooler. we hope to visit again and try out the steam room/shower!

Weekend Trip to Roughlands
I had a great time glamping on the platform! It was really nice to not have to worry about setting up a tent, sleeping bags, table chairs, etc. This was by far the best bathroom I’ve ever had in any camping experience. Absolutely beautiful and clean shower and toilet. I was also super impressed there was electricity and wifi! I was a big fan of the hot tub, although unless you sit back you do get a view of the other tent decks, and them of you haha. The sites without pre-set up tents were looked nice and I would camp in those another time if I couldn’t book a glamping tent; the string lights at those are beautiful. If I were staying in a glamping tent again, I’d bring my own pillow and a bright lantern, but otherwise felt like the accommodations were perfect. Jo is very sweet and super responsive. Would def come back!

Jo's set up is so wonderful and relaxing! Everything you need is there already, which made coming in for the weekend so relaxing. Plus the property is both close to downtown Nevada City and far enough from neighbors to feel like wilderness. We'll definitely be back!
