I grew up in the Sierra Foothills and love the culture, the historic buildings and sites, great food and fresh air.
Our surrounding neighborhood is quiet, full of nature and just right for a private getaway.
Just 15 minutes away is the town of Grass Valley which is such a magical place. The restaurant scene and overall layout of Main Street is the perfect setting no matter the time of year. Whether you're looking for a bite to eat, an educational stroll through a Gold Rush town, or you just want to feel like you've gone back in time 150 years, but without all the struggles of that time, then downtown Grass Valley is the place for you.
You can find any type of cuisine and know that your taste buds will be impressed and the people are so nice. Grass Valley still retains it's small town vibe and welcomes travelers with open arms.
Here are just a few attractions depending on what you're looking for, but we encourage you to take the short drive to downtown to experience everything for yourself and potentially stumble upon a gem we didn't list here (there are too many to write down).
