As for the "neighborhood" of the homestead, a few notes: the 25-acre property is surrounded on three sides by public land owned by BLM. Deer Creek runs right through the property and the Tribute Trail runs through the top. We helped design and fundraise for the Tribute Trail and have provided an easement for the trail on the property.
While you'll have exclusive use of the apartment and the deck area, and should expect a peaceful and serene setting with the sound of the creek below, you should note that the apartment is one of a few habitations on this property. We live in the main house upstairs (Steve, Elizabeth, their 17 year old daughter and two dogs)--but the entrances and orientation is such that you might never cross paths with them. You will see two other cabins from the pathway to DownHome (these are also rented on Airbnb).
Further away and out of sight (but not quite out of earshot; quite hours 11pm to 7am) is a creekside group campground called Dipper Camp that we also host over the summer months. While courtesy calls for you to respect the privacy of other residents and guests on the property, you're welcome to roam the pathways that lead to a network of public trails on hundreds of acres of neighboring public lands, including swimming holes, beaches, jumping rocks and footbridges over Deer Creek, and hiking and biking trails that ultimately lead back to town or further afield.
About Deer Creek: There are lots of "Deer Creeks" in California; this is the one that has the "Scotts Flat" reservoirs in the headwaters, then flows through Nevada City, past this property, then down through Lake Wildwood and ultimately flows into the Yuba River. Prospective guests have asked about flows: Deer Creek flows refreshingly cool and steady and predictable throughout the summer, because the flow is both augmented by South Yuba water and the releases from upper Scotts Flat reservoir, there's really no risk that Deer Creek (at Dipper Camp) will experience low flows, even at the end of a hot dry summer. We have spent our careers advocating for free-flowing natural rivers--here and internationally--but are contentedly resigned to the fact that Deer Creek water management results in a refreshingly cool and deep swimming holes along this property all summer long.
