Grass Valley is 10 minutes away as well and has more food, shopping, and entertainment for you. Access to the Yuba River is as close as 20 mins to Edwards Crossing and 20 mins to Hoyts Crossing on Highway 49. The space: This unique and beautiful 18' yurt is tucked into a lush watershed area. Surrounded by Ferns, Madrones, Incense Cedars, and Doug Firs you will never know you are only two miles from town.  We have hours of hiking right outside the yurt. Our property connects to the Woodpecker Preserve and the Gracie Trail if you hike up the mountain. We absolutely recommend trying to stay for two or more nights so that you can get accustomed to the space, learn the property, settle in, and relax. There is a wood-fired stove inside with plenty of wood stacked to keep you warm. We have a small functional kitchen with a hot plate, toaster oven, micro sink, and fridge. There is a wood-fired hot tub that is dedicated to this yurt only. The kitchen is fully equipped with a hot plate, toaster oven, microwave, refrigerator, cutlery, pots and pans, grill, etc. During the fall and winter, the yurt is heated with a wood-fired stove. It heats the place up within the hour and needs to be maintained during your stay to keep the place toasty. There is a lovely wood stove and plenty of firewood for you to use! The Queen bed has a heating blanket to help keep you cozy throughout the night. Things you might like to bring: headlamps,  robe,  flip flops, slippers, hiking shoes.
