Liked: Cleanliness, property conditions & facilities
The smell of the many trees surrounding the property was invigorating. While there are neighboring properties within eyesight, and the owners live on site, our experience was very peaceful. From what the owner told me upon our arrival Spring might be the best time to visit when everything is blooming. The grounds had a Wintertime dead look while we stayed over Christmas. The unit was comfortably furnished, and wood was provided for the stove. The only negative thing I have to say about the terms of the rental is that the check-out time of ten a.m. is too early.

Nice, Clean and Cute
The cottage is lovely, and was a great place for us to use as a home base for some adventures. I will say though that it wasn’t as private as the listing suggested, but we also didn’t feel too exposed. The rental process was odd, since it’s actually done through a 3rd party company other than VRBO. It wasn’t bad, just different. I think the listing should mention that at least because it caught me off guard. It was raining almost our entire trip which was lovely. We didn’t really get a chance to enjoy the koi pond, but what we saw of it from the main drive it was gorgeous. The whole property is stunning, especially in the rain! I imagine that big tree in front looks amazing in the fall. Overall, it is a great property and I would likely stay here again. The host is super nice too!

An oasis in big tree
We had such a lovely stay in Grass Valley. Our hosts were so hospitable, offering us ample space to enjoy our escape while also engaging us with friendly conversation, and through touring the property to see its amazing flora. The koi pond, in particular, was such a beautiful place to sit quietly and great each morning. Our whole family deeply enjoyed our stay, and we'd return in a heart beat!

Peaceful cottage
My husband, my 5 yr old daughter and myself were visiting family in California and needed a place to stay due to my mother in law's house was under renovations. We found the cottage listing on VRBO and thought it would work great for our family. It was wonderful!! When we arrived Jay greeted us and later on in our stay Jay & Chad gave us a tour of the property. My daughter loved the swings and thought the Koi fish were the greatest fish ever! We met the dogs Bonnie & Clyde. They were very sweet and playful. We were only in the cottage in the mornings and late evenings but it was very cozy. The comfortable bed and linens made it hard to get moving in the mornings. My daughter also enjoyed playing games and watching movies in the cottage. Jay and Chad were wonderful hosts and we would definitely return, shall we ever need to rent a place while visiting family.

A peaceful and quiet time in the woods …
My partner and I thoroughly enjoyed our Grass Valley get-away. The cottage met all our needs and more. It was clean, organized and so easy to live in. We streamed movies, made wood burning fires, fed the koi in the pond, and walked about the many incredible gardens surrounding the cottage. Communication with our hosts was warm and welcoming. Thank you Chad and brother… Sarah and Dave
