Land Yacht AirDream - w/ Hot tub & Creek access

Just a 4-minute drive from downtown Nevada City and yet totally secluded, this absurdly magical Airstream Land Yacht has elevated glamping to the next level. Imagine being completely nestled under a canopy of trees while maintaining every creature comfort you can imagine. Hot tub? Check. Creek access? Wifi? Check. Outdoor shower and movies over a gas fire pit? Check, check. No expense was spared to both design and create this epic yet romantic, one-of-a-kind vacation experience. Bon Voyage!

Cozy Coastal Redwood Cabin

Rest and connect in this warm, cozy, and private cabin that is nestled in the redwoods. Only minutes away from Henry Cowell State Park, where you can enjoy world class mountain biking trails, hiking, or swimming in the river. Or, enjoy the beach 15 minutes away. This is a perfect place to refresh in the magic of the Coastal Redwoods. Music fills most nights either from the Felton Music Hall or from the chorus of frogs. And wake up in the mornings to the mist in the trees when the fog rolls in.

Zen Jewel Sanctuary

Architecturally exquisite! Set in quiet, beautiful, peaceful, gardens with large pond. Gorgeous custom-made furniture, stereo , spa-like glass block shower. Spa robes available. Radiant heat. One loft bedroom, one downstairs. Short walk over dunes to deserted Ten Mile Beach. Since access is limited, the beach is virtually empty- a coastal secret. I live on the property with my golden retriever and cat ( not allowed in the cottage) but after check-in I want my privacy just as much as you do
