We always love our time at the Nomad House! The pool was a dream for the 4th of July weather, and the air conditioning upgrades made the house comfortable during day and night. It was a lovely family vacation for us, our friends, and their little ones. We'll be back in the future!
This is our second time staying here. Our group is two adults and three teens. It is such a relaxing space. The pool and hot tub are both great. The kitchen space has everything you would need. The rooms are comfy and the new air conditioning units are a great upgrade. Itâs a short drive to the Yuba river with great swimming holes.
I am a returning guest to this lovely home, and hope to continue coming back in future years! The location and backyard just canât be beat. Even though the hot tub was down, the pool and close distance to the Yuba River, as well as the peaceful and beautiful outdoor area as a whole, were enough to enjoy. Check-in was a breeze, and the home was nice and clean. AC worked well also. The hosts were very responsive, and communication was easy and straightforward. Thank you again to Dave and Nacala!
Perfect for two families. We had the very best time. The pool is incredible and we spent the entire time in it. This was our fourth time returning to the property.
The property and house are lovely. We were there with six people, and there was plenty of room for cooking and hanging out. The pool and the hot tub are wonderful. It is a perfect location to explore south Yuba River State Park and not far from Nevada City/Grass Valley .
From the stained glass windows casting late afternoon rainbows to sunsets from the deck, this house is pure magic and it is always a gift to stay here!
We had an amazing stay at this remote Penn Valley home. The location is very remote which is what we were looking for. The house perfectly accommodated our family of four our 11 year old yellow lab. Hot tub is right off the living/dining space and gets very hot. We spent most of our time lounging by the large swimming pool, which is entirely in the sun. The home temperature is driven by four mini-split units -- they allow each bedroom to modulate the temp with either AC of heat! Dave was a great host and personally checked us in. We will return!
Despite the heatwave that struck during our stay, we had a very relaxing time. Swimming in the pool and the Yuba river (25 min drive from the house) was great. The house is awesome. Big full kitchen connected to dining/living room. Nice big decks. Great stargazing. Comfortable beds. The AC wasn't enough to keep up with the 107 degree heatwave, but the house did stay much cooler than outside. And they warned us about the heat and would have been willing to work something out, but it was the only week we had off work.
My family had such a wonderful stay here last winter. Owners were very helpful and communicative. The home was lovely and we enjoyed the hot tub. A perfect place to relax and enjoy family time.
If youâre looking for a great place to unwind this is it. We booked this place for our anniversary and when we arrived we were greeted with some freshly picked flowers from their garden and a bottle of champagne as an added bonus. The pool and hot tub were amazing. Thank you very much for making our anniversary extra special!
Great home and location to visit with family that lives in the area. Home is remote, but not too far from town. Home has everything you need and more! The pool was wonderful and the hot tub was great during the cooler mornings. Thank you for having us. We will be back!
We love the nomad house! This was our second stay with friends and we had a fabulous time cooking, playing games and hanging out near the pool. This house is fabulous for relaxing with friends and family and we look forward to returning again in the future.
Awesome time. Pool and Jacuzzi perfect with the kids. Kitchen equipped enough for cooking and BBQ. As stated, no AC but fans and breeze with windows open at night worked great.
I was looking forward to this long weekend up by the Yuba River and the accommodations were perfect. The house is located on the edge of a forested ravine, a quick drive to the historic covered bridge, and about 25-30 minutes from the Hoyt bridge. The cedar hot tub and swimming pool made staying at this house a wonderful place to relax, catch up with friends and family, and enjoy the beautiful scenery. We came prepared to cook at home and made good use of the well appointed kitchen and dining room, and when it came time to head out to the river, the ample kitchen size made it easy for us to prepare and pack lunches and snacks for the day.
For those who arenât accustomed to rural living or being in nature, Iâd recommend reading about the Penn Valley/Grass Valley region and the Yuba River and surrounding geography. This house offers a unique opportunity for guests to learn more about the area and disconnect. You will see lots of wildlife â especially so many birds â so if youâre a birder this house is in a prime location! Bring binoculars! Or telescope for stargazing.
The hosts Nacala and Dave were so communicative and checked in with us to make sure we made it in and also made it home safely. They were available to answer questions and there is a detailed welcome binder at the house with tons of helpful information and tips. I hope to come back again for another trip to the Yuba!
The Nomad House is as magical as it looks! We were lucky to be there at the beginning of summer, the rolling green hills and summer wild flowers and all the amazing views from the deck! You can almost hear the rushing water down in the valley!
The house was clean and had lots of open space. The pool, hot tub and outside areas are the best part of this property and the river just 15 minutes away!
Only things to note: if your bringing young children, youâll need to bring baby gates and be extra cautious of wide railing bars and door knob locks on the doors leading to the desk where there is often an open hot tub. Also, although the kitchen was stocked with utensils and appliances, bring your own coffee, food seasonings, condiments ect as they were not supplied.
Over all wonderful stay at the Nomad House! We will definitely be coming back!
This was the 2nd time staying at the Nomad house in less than a year. Itâs a great getaway from city life! Dave the caretaker was very responsive, friendly and helpful. Definitely going to return!
Perfect time of year to come to the Yuba! fewer folks at the river, itâs still nice and warm out, and the days are just a little shorter. Nomad House is clean, comfortable and peaceful.
This was by far the best place we have rented from VRBO,!! It was great, clean, spacious, quiet, calm, relaxing! It was home away from home!! No neighbors, so we could have our music loud without any complaints, the swimming pool was awesome!!! Kitchen is well stocked and the sofa couch was a plus!!! We would come back, really enjoyed our stay here!!!!
This place was so amazing and relaxing! We got so lucky finding this place the week we needed it after our music festival changed venues last minute! It was such a great place to be able to come back to and relax after a hot day. With 3 couples, we had plenty of room to hang out all together, or just have our own space to wind down. The pool was definitely a huge bonus! The hosts were very accommodating as well, working with our schedule and giving us an early check in which was such an amazing benefit! I highly recommend this place....
The Nomad house doesn't feel like a vacation rental -- it feels like home. We love the charms of the property, especially the big deck, the oak trees, the privacy, the pool, and the layout and interior decorating in the house.
