We felt fortunate to find this spot on our visit to see friends in Grass Valley. Great location for exploring the area. Enjoyed observing hummingbirds at the porch feeder, especially when they perched in the mature redwood in the front yard. We would choose this property when we visit again.
Charming house with all the amenities, well-decorated and roomy. Nice front and back yard with huge trees and nice landscaping. Very safe and relaxing stay..I'm making this my getaway spot for sure!
My daughter & I took a quick weekend trip home to Nev Co and Quartz Cottage was the perfect cottage for us to go in/out of. Great location, cozy decor. Loved it!

This is a very comfortable and convenient property. Matthew responded to our communications very quickly, and we had no problems with reserving and checking in to the cottage. We enjoyed our stay and look forward to visiting again.
This is our second time staying at Quartz Cottage. It's just big enough for my wife and I plus our Labradoodle. With my wife having to use a walker all the time there's just enough room for her to maneuver inside and only a single step to get outside. And the fenced in yard is a plus for letting the dog outside. We can visit friends in the area without imposing on them for a bed. We will be back.
We will rent this cottage again. It was so clean and beautiful. We highly recommend it for 3 to 4 people. Just loved the decor, flowers on the porch, and the location.
Stayed while at the Carving retreat like others. Two of us. The second bed is a pull out in a bedroom but same comfort as other bed. Lots of snacks, coffee and essentials for a stay. Didn’t cook, but all the stuff is there. If you are there in winter, turn on your heaters in the room. That’s your heat.
This is the nicest cottage we have ever had the pleasure to stay in. We've spent many vacations in various cabins and cottages in the Sierra and north coast over the years and this is the best, bar none! Obviously it has been totally redone inside so it is super clean and well equipped.
Wonderful stay at this lovely cottage. Perfect yard for my dog. Other than the beds being a bit uncomfortable, the cottage was perfect. Grass Valley being a small tight knit community, my sister Vivian Tipton, knows the owners! 😊🌻😊

Why they chose this property
Great location, walking distance to the Fairgrounds, Downtown and Condon Park. The park has a disk golf course, a nice amount of trails and a dog park. You have the whole house with fenced in yard. It is a great place to cook full meals or use as your home base to enjoy all the dining Nevada County has to offer.
