Wonderful

Thank you Justin. We had a little trouble finding the place because the Vrbo site was having problems and we didn't receive the information from them but aside from that everything was fabulous. Butler Place is in a great location, was beautifully decorated, spotlessly clean and very well equipped with everything anyone could need. Thank you so much for a great stay.

Amazing stylish private accommodation in the heart of Grass Valley! Wonderful Stay!!

Love this property so much! Stylish, super clean, well stocked with anything we needed but my favorite aspect was how private it was from the back deck and windows inside! Stunning property! We will definitely stay there again on our next visit from Georgia!!

Perfect for Our Trip

It's a good thing that Nevada City was all booked, since it lead us to discover charming Grass Valley for a last min river trip! Very considerate VRBO with all the nice details, clean, quiet, comfortable, well functioning AC, and a lovely back porch to drink your coffee on to boot. Couldn't recommend this property more, we loved how walkable it was to downtown Grass Valley. 10/10!

Best VRBO We've Ever Stayed At

We absolutely loved our stay! Location was perfect for doing things in both Grass Valley and Nevada City. It's clean, cozy, comfy, quiet and modern. Anything we could possibly need was in the unit: kitchen tools, sound machine, snack basket, earplugs, blow dryer...and the list goes on. Hands down the best VRBO we've ever stayed at! Thanks for a lovely stay!

Super cute!

I truly enjoyed my stay at Justin’s property. Super cute updated property. It was especially relaxing on the upper deck off the living room having a cup of tea in the morning surrounded by the sounds of nature. The downtown area was very charming with different shops and restaurants. I loved eating at the Mediterranean restaurant and the chocolate shop has the best sea salt gelato! Justin has thought of everything to make for a comfortable, safe and pleasant stay. I would absolutely choose to stay at his location again.

We will definitely be back

My husband said, "you did good" 😊 we loved the property. So quiet and peaceful. The neighborhood is beautiful and the property is super clean and tastefully decorated. We always travel with our own coffee supplies (we take our coffee very seriously) but we were very surprised at how well stocked the kitchen is. We will definitely be back and recommend to our family and friends.

Romantic cottage, close to everything!

Came over from Reno for a two-night stay in Grass Valley (our first time staying in the area), to explore the town and visit the Nevada County Fair. We couldn’t have chosen a better place! A half-mile walk into town, through a charming neighborhood; a half-mile walk in the other direction, to the fairgrounds. The cottage had everything we wanted (they even had a french press!). Modern, comfortable throughout; the back porch was the perfect place for an afternoon glass of wine and a little writing. Check-in and out was effortless.

About the host

Hosted by Justin Gross

Host profile image
We purchased this property in 2014 and renovated the cottage later that year.
Justin is a voice over actor and has worked on thousands of media projects throughout the years. He also works with a local property management company and holds a California real estate broker license.
Aldo also works locally with Barrett Property Management and is a licensed real estate salesperson.
We both love to travel and we both agree that Maui is our favorite place to travel to.

Why they chose this property

I (Justin) grew up here in Grass Valley. I moved away after finishing community college and never thought I would come back. 2012, after selling our home in Houston, we were looking for places to live and I began looking at places for sale in Grass Valley. I wanted to live in town and be walking distance to the downtown area. We found this property and I fell in love with the location. It was a TOTAL gut-job-remodel. All that hard work, blood, sweat and, yes, tears, was worth it.

What makes this property unique

We LOVE that our place is so close to downtown Grass Valley, the Nevada County Fairgrounds and Condon Park.
The cottage is behind the main house and remains private.
