About this property

Amazing ambiance!

This charming house is just a couple blocks from downtown in the small Gold Rush village of Sierra City.

The house is cozy and private. But its greatest attraction is the peaceful sound of a small brook cascading past the deck and water trickling down the rock patio wall.

This house has three bedrooms, with one California King bed and the other two queen beds. This two-story house has one full bath (shower only) and one half bath, one on each level.

The stairs leading to the two upstairs bedrooms are fairly steep and may be difficult to navigate for people with disabilities.

Hardwood deck looks out over a small year-round stream that provides great sounds!

Usually requires a 3-4-day minimum rental. Requests for shorter stays may be considered in between other rentals or for open days close to booking window.

cozy lovely home

we loved our stay at this cozy home in the forest with a creek running out front. It’s an older house with character, and it felt very comfortable and clean with a fully stocked kitchen for any and all cooking you might want to do. The beds were very comfortable and we loved hanging out on a rainy day when it was too wet to hike, just enjoying a fire in the fireplace. Toby was very attentive and available throughout the pre and post-visit periods in addition to the time we were at the house. A great find.

Great old time feel.

Driveway is a little sketchy in the wet but other than that the place is great and I would recommend staying there. Shady and quiet as you are up from the main road.

A good getaway

If you like a cabin in the woods, you will like this place. We had trouble finding it because of an obscure address sign. I talked to the owner, and he is putting up an easier to spot sign. Some windows could use light-blocking curtains. It was bright in the upstairs bedroom at 5:30 AM. The owner agrees with me and hopefully will add curtains. Other than this minor issues, the place was comfortable. Meals were easy to prepare in the kitchen. I would rent it again for a family.

About the host

Hosted by Tobias Young

I've been visiting Sierra City since I was a kid. Michelle and I have brought our children to the Sierra mountains since they were kids. We live in the Bay Area most of the time, but we love to enjoy our special Sierra City House as much as we can!

Why they chose this property

We bought this house in 1999 because of its Gold Rush-era rock walls, the year-round stream that runs through the property and the summertime shade from the trees. It is a wonderful spot.

What makes this property unique

The stream gives the house a unique ambiance, filling its rooms with the soft tumble of cascading water. You can watch the stream from the deck outside, under the shade of trees. The setting makes you never want to leave, even though biking, swimming, hiking, fishing, cross-country skiing, golf and other pursuits are minutes away.
