Relaxing safe haven-Sierra Foothills!

SeanRating, 5 stars2 weeks ago

We were here for a birthday weekend and had a great time. Nice and close to town and clean inside. The beds were comfy and amenities nice. I will say I thought our view would have been the trees and a little more private but if you sit on the front porch you look right down on the main house and the back patio you look into their neighbors house and yard area. My impression was it was more secluded than it was. Still, a very nice time and the fact it was easy for my mom to navigate with a walker was great.

This was our second stay with Merry. A perfect place to celebrate our anniversary! She is a wonderful host and her property is lovely! Proximity to downtown makes it a nice short walk to shops, bars, and restaurants. Deer Creek trail is a short hike as well and a beautiful experience. We told Merry we were going to a concert in the park and she provided us with folding chairs, which made our experience perfect! We visit NV City a couple of times each year and Merry's Garden Suite is our new favorite!

Cozy Upstairs Cabin w/Canal View

AnnRating, 5 stars3 days ago

We really enjoyed our stay at Jennifer and Eric's place. We felt right at home the minute we stepped through the door. The layout of the apartment made the bedrooms very private and quiet with a comfortable living room, kitchen, and dining room area. The huge deck provided a lot of outdoor space. Jennifer and Eric live on the property so we saw them periodically. They were friendly and respectful our space and time. The house is located right off of I-80, so it was quick and easy to get to Auburn and other destinations. We had a few questions during our 10 day stay and Jennifer was exceptionally quick in responding. We will definitely stay there again the next time we are in the area.
