Four acres nestled in the Sierra Nevada Foothills. We are located at 4200 Ft Elevation, just 3.5 miles from the top of the mountain with 360 degree lookouts. You're about 35 minutes from Historic downtown Nevada City, only 15 minutes from many Yuba River swimming holes, and about 6 miles to the Malakoff Diggins State Park. This property is fully off-grid, run on solar and back up generator. We are technically above snow line! So if you are trying to beat the heat it is about 5-10 degrees cooler at our location! This is a peaceful oasis for you to stay why explore the Sierra Nevada Mountains. We are creating a collective community vibe for nature lovers and explorers to have a safe and beautiful place to rest and share.

Would definitely recommend it!
My family and I loved the bus, and everything was perfect! Kelly was super friendly; she's a great host. The bus has a stove, cooking utensils, a sink, dishware, silverware, seasonings, a dresser, a mattress, a couple of chairs, lights, and a guitar. There's also a bed with a bug net outside the bus, table and log chairs outside the bus. It was very comfortable and relaxing for us. The bus was private and secluded from the other sites. There's also a dresser. Drinking water was provided, very fresh. And there is a shower right outside the bus. There is a little play area for children where they can build things, and a hammock. My children enjoyed it. We loved the dogs too; they were super friendly. The bathroom was so clean, and I loved the design and art that was put into it. The area was so peaceful, and we could just enjoy nature. Overall, we had a great experience.

Kelly was so helpful, guiding us to local spots to explore, and helping us feel comfortable taking our kids camping for the first time.

Great bus stay in the forest
We had a great time at Kelly’s! The space was great, lots of privacy and we loved the bed in the forest. We didn’t sleep there at night, but it was great in the day for reading or resting or sitting together to play cards. Kelly had a great binder with things to do in the area. We visited Oregon Creek which was a great swimming spot for the kids. Nice calm water where two creeks/rivers come together. Yuba Creek is a beautiful area!

Kelly and her land are absolutely amazing my friend and I stayed in the bus, if you are looking for hand made, secluded, and breathtaking property this is for you. Kelly is extremely resourceful and a fantastic host. We felt extremely safe and welcomed. There are some fur friends that come to hang out that are sweethearts. We can not wait to come back and visit Kelly and everything the towns, swimming, and hiking have to offer.
