Cutest little place!

I was for a place about an hour away to hunker down and get some work done. The place is really cute, has a nostalgic cabin feel and walking distance to old town Nevada City. I stayed in the Winter room which had the cutest little kitchen. Oh and its dog friendly with special towels, treats, poop bags and bowls for them. Wifi wasn't that strong but I bet not a lot of people go there to do work. Ha! I would go again but not to do work.

Outside Inn brought the outside in - beautiful

This place was so cute! We had a queen in the main room and a twin in the alcove. My 13 year loved the alcove. The room was so adorable and so was the Inn. We will be back.
