About this apartment rental

Welcome to our enchanting handcrafted roundhouse, a unique retreat located in a quiet residential neighborhood. This charming abode features a cozy floating loft, perfect for a restful night's sleep under the stars, thanks to the innovative stargazing bubble that opens to the night sky.

The roundhouse boasts meticulous craftsmanship, with every piece of wood hand-selected and lovingly placed to create a warm, inviting atmosphere. The propane-heated fire and air conditioning ensure comfort throughout the year.

Step outside to discover a lovely private outdoor patio, where you'll find a large outdoor shower with dual rain shower heads, standing over eight feet tall and providing a soothing rainfall of hot water. The flowing fountain adds to the tranquil ambiance, making this an ideal spot for relaxation both day and night.

Conveniently located just ten minutes from downtown Grass Valley and eleven minutes from downtown Nevada City, our roundhouse offers easy access to local attractions, dining, and shopping. Downtown Nevada City is a historic destination known for its vibrant community and rich cultural heritage. Access to the South Yuba river just 20 minutes away!

Explore the charming small handcrafted stores nearby, filled with all kinds of unique art and treasures, perfect for finding a special keepsake or gift. Discover local museums that offer fascinating insights into the area's history and culture, adding an educational aspect to your stay.

Plus, we are only twenty minutes from the massive Yuba River, which runs from the tops of the Sierras all the way to the Pacific Ocean. Deer Creek, which runs through our property, is a tributary to the Yuba River and has a rich history of gold discoveries. The land was once part of the Mystic Mine, renowned for its incredible gold finds. Recently, a local discovered 10 ounces of gold with just a snorkel in the river.

In the summertime, enjoy the beautiful Yuba River, sunbath on massive rocks, or enjoy a mini hike down to private access to the year round flowing creek on the property.

Whether you're seeking a romantic getaway, a peaceful retreat, or a unique vacation experience, our roundhouse offers a perfect blend of rustic charm and modern comfort.

Situated in Butney Springs, this was a great place to stay while I visited family. The property owners were very nice and friendly. The property grounds were being improved, with good progress made while I was there. There was no stress, plenty of space to sit outside and relax to listen to birds sing. The sauna, shower and tub were available to reserve. The outside shower was great for the early evening hours. There was a resident dog to pet. There is a bit of a walk to the round house with the landscaping focusing on nature. Overall, a very nice stay.

Studio itself was very clean and the main area was spacious for the three of us and our grehyhound. The main floor had a daybed, with a hide-away for another person. The loft had one bed for two. There is not much height in the loft so you do have to crouch to get into bed. It was fine for our purpose. The ladder/stairs to get up were a bit narrow at the top but they felt pretty sturdy and safe. The 1/2 bath is located just outside the door, approx 10ft away for our use only. Not a big deal for us. It is a bit tight but we were able to do what we needed. The seat warmer was nice especially since we went during colder, rainy weather. There is a communal shower that you have to walk down to. We had to buy shower shoes when we realized that. We also had to make another run into town to buy towels, coffee cups and dish soap. The towels weren't made available for at least 2 of the 3 nights we stayed. There was a mini-fridge, coffee maker, electric water kettle, toaster, toaster oven, electric one-burner. As a very esthetically pleasing studio, being surrounded by trees, I would say it's better than tent camping as you are protected from the elements, cooking is a bit challenging on one burner and washing the dishes outside. We had a knife with us so that saved us. We really liked the proximity to hiking trails. The nearest stores and restaurants are within 6 miles

Thus was such a unique and holistic property. My daughter thought the outdoor shower was very cool. If you want a place to stay that will build a fun memory this property is it.
