About this house rental

Newly renovated Victorian cottage, set in the heart of Downieville. Nestled between 2 rivers, the cottage offers a relaxing retreat. Swim, bike, fish, walk or simply watch the world go by in this Sierra goldmine town, surrounded by nature.

The space

Our family loves our cottage. In the winter there's nothing like snuggling up and sitting around the fire playing board games. In the summer it's all about the outdoors. Sit on the porch and watch the world go by, explore the Sierra's all around you, or be adventurous and try out the famous downhill mountain bike rides.

Other things to note

The cottage backs onto the hill and has a large garden extending up the mountain. There's a very small pond on the hill so watch out if you have very young kids.

The garden is terraced with dry stone walls all the way back and offers great views and walks straight up the hill. Tread with caution as the hill is steep.

Fantastic, everything was just as described. Great location and everything worked out as expected. We even had a guest appearance of 3 bears meandering thought the backyard on our first day. Great spot, great host, will definitely stay here again.

Perfect place to escape the city. The process was easy, the hosts were communicative and easy to reach, property exceeded expectations.
8 / 10Excellent·Oct 2023
Stayed with friends for a weekend of mountain biking. Plenty of beds. The backyard was not big enough to hang out in the evenings.
10 / 10Outstanding·Sep 2023
Nice house and location; had everything we needed except functional upstairs windows (also screens would have been nice on windows that did work) - hard to ventilate upstairs because of window situation.
