3 Bedroom House in Nevada City
Radiance Cabin (sleeps 2-9) is the newest and largest custom-built cabin on our 200-acre developing eco-preserve in the heart of the Sierra Nevada's. With three bedrooms and a pull-out futon in the large main room, full kitchen, 800-square foot redwood deck, miles of hiking trails at your doorstep, and a developed spring 150 yards from the cabin, Radiance Cabin is the ideal rustic mountain retreat space for families and groups seeking peace, quiet, and a chance to unplug and unwind in the forest.
This rustic high ceiling cabin is off grid and perfect for those seeking a country getaway.
Discover an abundance of local plants and wildlife while wandering through trails canopied with pine, cedar, and madrone trees. Waterfalls and swimming holes are available within 5 minutes' drive, with many more hiking trails and river access points within 30-45 minutes' drive. Our location in the mountains will take you far outside the hustle and bustle of the city, but don't worry - there is a small store just down the road with many essentials, as well as a gas station, organic market, and cafe within 30 minutes' drive.
The Cabin:
Offering more privacy than any of our other cabins, Radiance cabin is a spacious, 3-bedroom cabin that allows in ample natural light but is also well shaded throughout the day, keeping you cool in the summertime. The airy main room and redwood deck offer plenty of space for you and your group to relax, while the custom-built kitchen has everything you need for short and long stays.

Each of the cabin's 3 bedrooms has a queen-sized log bed and dresser and there is a pull-out futon in the main room which can sleep 2, as well as 2 cots that can be used in the main room (bring your own bedding for the futon and cots).
There is also a wood stove for heating with firewood and kindling provided. Directions for how to operate the wood stove are posted in the cabins, but if you would like assistance please let us know. We are available at the main house from 8am-8pm for any questions you may have.

We are located only 5 miles from Malakoff Diggins State Park and close to the beautiful Yuba River and Bullard’s Bar. The small town of North San Juan is 20 minutes’ drive away and offers several restaurants, a gas station, a locally owned thrift store, and a small organic market. Nevada City and Grass Valley are approximately 45 minutes’ drive away with many options for dining and shopping. Please don’t hesitate to ask for recommendations!
