Nestled where the Yuba River meets Haypress Creek, this peaceful hideaway opens to the sound of rushing water and birdsong. Whether you’re sipping coffee on the deck, cooking a meal with friends, or stargazing under string lights, this cabin invites you to slow down and reconnect with nature. The heart of the cabin is the spacious great room — perfect for curling up by the wood-burning stove, playing games, dancing, or gathering for shared meals. The country kitchen is fully stocked with everything you need to cook: a four-burner stove, fridge, coffee maker, pots, pans, dishes, utensils, spices, oils, and more. Step out to the large deck with BBQ grill and outdoor dining area — magical at dusk under the twinkle lights and stars. Sleeping arrangements: Downstairs: 1 queen bedroom + 1 bathroom (clawfoot tub & shower) Upstairs: 3 bedrooms (1 queen, 1 full, 1 twin room for kids) + 1 bathroom Year-round adventure: Spring–Fall: Hiking & biking trails for all levels, Yuba River fishing & swimming nearby. Winter: Borrow our sleds and explore by snowshoe, ski, or snowmobile. Connectivity: No TV, but great Wi-Fi — stream, work remotely, or unplug and enjoy the quiet. What makes it special: This is a true Lost Sierra retreat — cozy, rustic, and deeply relaxing. The perfect mix of nature, comfort, and nostalgia. Watch the light move through the pines, listen to the creek, and reconnect with what matters. Guests have full access to the home and plenty of parking for cars, bikes, and even snowmobiles in winter. The bungalow is all yours — a private, peaceful mountain retreat. Our cabin is old-fashioned and full of charm — the upstairs can be chilly in winter and warm in summer. We provide extra blankets for cool nights, and suggest opening windows after sunset during summer to let in the mountain air. Please treat our home and the surrounding land with care. A light tidy-up (dishes, vacuuming if needed) helps us keep this place special for years to come. No need to do laundry or take out ashes — we’ll handle that. This is a true Lost Sierra experience: cozy, rustic, and rooted in nature. ## Property amenities ### Internet - Available in the cabin: WiFi ### Parking and transport - Parking on site ### Kitchen - Coffee grinder - Coffee/tea maker - Cookware, dishware, and utensils - Electric kettle - Hob - Microwave - Oven - Paper towels - Refrigerator - Spices - Toaster ### Dining - Dining table ### Bedrooms - 4 bedrooms - Bedsheets provided ### Bathroom - 2 bathrooms - Bathtub or shower - Hair dryer - Shower - Toilet paper - Towels provided ### Living spaces - Dining table - Fireplace - Living room - Wood stove ### Entertainment - Games ### Outdoor areas - Barbecue grill - Outdoor furniture - Patio ### Laundry - Laundry facilities - Washing machine ### Comfort - Heating ### Pets - Pet friendly - Welcoming dogs only - 2 pets total ### Suitability/Accessibility - Smoke-free property ### Services and conveniences - Iron/ironing board ### Things to do - Cycling nearby - Hiking/biking trails nearby ### Safety features - Carbon monoxide detector (host has indicated there is a carbon monoxide detector on the property) - Smoke detector (host has indicated there is a smoke detector on the property) - First aid kit - Fire extinguisher - Deadbolt lock ### General - Unit size: 2,000 square feet ## Similar properties ![Interior](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/70000000/69390000/69387500/69387443/5ec5b97b.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### Sierra City Loves Falls Cabin - Walking Distance to Waterfall & PCT Sierra City - Kitchen - Washing machine - Dryer - Pet-friendly 9.4 Exceptional 49 reviews [](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Hotel-Search?startDate=2026-03-01&endDate=2026-03-02&selected=69387443&PinnedHotelID=69387443&HadPinnedHotel=true®ionId=-1&adults=2) ![Outdoor dining](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/123000000/122930000/122926900/122926810/5ee33b2c.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### The Wild Rock Retreat Graeagle - Kitchen - Washing machine - Dryer - Air-conditioning £346 includes taxes & fees 2 Mar - 3 Mar [](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Hotel-Search?startDate=2026-03-02&endDate=2026-03-03&selected=122926810&PinnedHotelID=122926810&HadPinnedHotel=true®ionId=-1&adults=2) ![Property grounds](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/105000000/104490000/104483900/104483847/7f05b28e.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### A guesthouse with panoramic mountain and river views with private bathroom Downieville - Kitchen - Free Wi-Fi - Air-conditioning - Outdoor space 9.6 Exceptional 5 reviews £102 includes taxes & fees 18 Feb - 19 Feb [](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Hotel-Search?startDate=2026-02-18&endDate=2026-02-19&selected=104483847&PinnedHotelID=104483847&HadPinnedHotel=true®ionId=-1&adults=2) [Compare similar properties](/Hotel-Search?startDate=2026-03-01&endDate=2026-03-02&selected=95420455&PinnedHotelID=95420455&HadPinnedHotel=true®ionId=-1&adults=2&comparePropertyIds=95420455,69387443,122926810,104483847) ## Policies ### Check-in Check-in time starts at 3:00 PM Minimum check-in age - 25 ### Check-out Check-out before 11:00 AM ### Special check-in instructions An adult aged 18 or older must assume all liability for the booking You will receive an email from the host with check-in and check-out instructions Information provided by the property may be translated using automated translation tools ### Pets Pets are allowed Service animals are welcome, and are exempt from fees Welcoming dogs only 2 total pets ### Children and extra beds Children are welcome ### Events No events allowed ### Smoking Smoking is not permitted ## Important information ### You need to know This property is managed by a private host (a party not acting within their trade, business or profession).

One of my children and her family were not able to come due to an illness but my son stayed. Rustic yet comfortable. A very pleasant stay. ##### Nancy A. Stayed 2 nights in Sep 2024 ### 8/10 Good #### Jodi N. 2 Sept 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### A great cabin to stay in the basin lake area! The cabin is spacious and easily accommodated 5 adults and our two dogs. There’s no TV but we brought our own and managed streaming for our family movie night. The WiFi works well. The kitchen was well stocked with plates, utensils and glasses. Some minor issues with appliances & bbq, but we worked through it. There are many games to play at the house and she has lots of towels and linens available. One of the bedrooms (queen bed) upstairs has a skylight in there so you can’t sleep after sunrise unless you have a sleep mask or you're an early riser.. Location is great as it’s near the Yuba river. There are certain spots where you can jump in, although the water is cold/refreshing. Communication and the check in/check out process was easy. Overall, we had a great time visiting the area and found our stay comfortable. ##### Jodi N.
