Great private place.

A wonderful home to stay in while visiting family, nice to have a place of our own instead of couch surfing. Very clean, lots of space and close to everything, yet out of the way for provacy.

This house is AMAZING! You will not be disappointed!

We traveled to the area to attend a funeral. Two families totaling 8 people. We were very pleased with the size of the house and the space to spread out. The TV room seats 10 on furniture with a big TV. (Family time). Very clean. Very equipped kitchen. The deck made it nice to eat outside. Cindy was a great host. Stay here and you will not be disappointed!

Relaxing Stay

Our family of four had a lovely vacation at this spacious home away from home. The property had all the amenities and more for a comfortable stay. My daughters loved the blue decor and touches. They had fun putting together a puzzle. I loved the picnic table and grill on the deck. My spouse was happy with the streaming offering on TV :). The family room was very nicely set up and we had a movie night each day after dinner. Cindy, thank you for sharing your property with us!

Beautiful-Cozy Home

I planned a trip to the Truckee area for my family. Kids wanted to enjoy snow and the adults wanted to enjoy the hustle and bustle of the Squaw Valley (Pallisade). This lovely house is in Colfax and was just about 30 minutes away from the snow area. The house was lovelier than I expected. Very spacious for all of us - 2 families. Very well furnished, electronics were latest and high end. Fire place adds to the coziness and charm of the house. Large and beautiful deck in the back would be fun in the summers. Highly recommended.

Overall we really enjoyed our stay here. I would say that the house is actually nicer that what I expected from the pictures. It is quite large and perfect for family gatherings. It is nicely decorated, unlike many other rentals. There were plenty of dishes, cooking utensils, towels, etc. The large deck was lovely and great for having meals outside. Communication was easy and check-in instructions were provided in plenty of time. We did notice, however, that the sliding door at the back of the house doesn't lock properly. I also didn't enjoy the amount of artificial fragrance on the bedding.

Amazing!

Our best experience ever. Our host was just amazing so thoughtful and kind. My son’s wedding was in Forest Hill. The house was so nice to get ready for the wedding at. We loved the big TV and how the room was set up. I could go on and on. It was everything we could wish for. We all loved our stay, I could never say thank you enough, Kathy Arva

Nice Quiet Getaway

Exactly what we booked. We wanted a spacious house for 4 people and a dog for the holidays. Something quiet and out of the city, but not too far. Great amenities and plenty of space for 4 adults. Had a great time here.

Spacious, convenient and comfortable

This was the perfect location for a short stay while we attended a funeral in the area. We were comfortable in the clean, spacious house and deck. Those who stayed over had comfortable beds and private bathrooms. We were able to have a small family gathering after the funeral in the well equipped spacious kitchen with plenty of parking. The house was easily accessible to the freeway for those on the way home. The dogs were happy in the fenced yard. The setting could not have been more perfect for our needs. Thank you Cindy!

A fun, intriguing place to be for the whole family!

Staying here was such a pleasurable experience. The rooms and decor were charming, we loved the Bauhaus art and architecture. Everything was super clean and tidy, he kitchen had everything we needed, and the house had fully stocked bathrooms and extra linens. The kids loved the deck, and the location is just a short drive away from the Bear River, which was lovely. Everything was better than expected and we look forward to visiting again in the future.

Peaceful retreat

We stayed here in July 2022. We usually stay at a campground with our trailer but didn’t want to bring it for such a short trip. We were able to focus on our family instead of doing all the chores that come along with staying in a campground. It was about 15 minutes from Rollins Lake and 15 minutes from the Bear river campgrounds where we like to tube down the river. There was plenty of room for our (adult) children and a few friends. We were provided with all of the items needed for our stay, towels, kitchen items etc. The host made all instructions very clear. We didn’t have to wonder what to do about anything. I would recommend this property without hesitation. It was nice enough to feel like we were on vacation and cozy enough to feel like we were right at home.

Wish we would have stayed longer— Wonderful property with low-fenced yard for doggie. So close to Auburn, Colfax, Nevada City, and environs. Much more than the 2 of us needed, room to relax in delux style. Highly recommend!!

About the host

Hosted by Cindy

Host profile image
I grew up in this Weimar home and I have many childhood memories of playing basketball and sunning on the deck. I spent many summers at the Bear River rafting from the Campground to Dogbar Rd. bridge. Now an educator, I appreciate what the outdoors brought to my experiences and enjoy sharing those experiences with others. From skiing at the local resorts, spending time at the river (Bear River and American River across the way) to picking pine cones and watching the wildlife there is never a dull moment in this home.

Why they chose this property

This home is a great get-away from a busy schedule. An easy drive to a higher elevation for winter activities or various hiking destinations you will not be disappointed. This home sits between Meadow Vista and Colfax with both towns offering unique small town experiences.
