Summary: We rented multiple cabins for a business retreat. There is no better place to detach from the office to focus on team dynamics and collaboration. The cabins are situated in a stunning forest, which adds a sense of peace and calm to the dynamics. Thanks for the hospitality!

Summary: This place continues to be our favorite wilderness spot, with plenty of hiking, swimming in the Yuba, and a short drive to civilization. A special thanks to the host, Adam (the talented carpenter who built these gorgeous cabins!) for his friendly hospitality. Thank you!

Summary: I love this 200-acre forest! I just came back from spending 2 weeks in Shambhala and I loved it! This is my favorite cabin. It's super bright, the bed is so comfortable and the wood stove is perfect. If you need a refuge in nature then this is it! I definitely will be coming back soon.

Summary: Loved the glamping. Best thing about the entire trip was to let our dog just run! He had a blast and was always with an eyesight of the cabin. We were lucky enough to have two military girls in the cabin next to us with two dogs. We ended up playing horseshoes and letting the three dogs just run on a beautiful afternoon

Summary: Lots of hiking opportunities. Swimming in the Yuba river is a short drive away. Malakoff Diggins (sp?) State Park is a historic gem. Whitewater afting trips are nearby and run through July. The cabin is remote, about 45 minutes from Nevada City. There are a few really gorgeous hand-built cabins made with a lot of love and attention to detail. Accommodations are rustic but very comfortable. If you are trying to escape to somewhere peaceful among the trees, this is the perfect place to retreat.
