Creekside Paradise. Luxury & comfort on private forest/ parklike grounds
it is a Creekside Paradise.. You won't want to leave this private enclave reminiscent of wood and glass chalets along the creek in Vail. The creek runs right by the house with a little waterfall, island in the center of the creek accessed by a wood bridge. This is the mountain retreat of a renowned San Fransisco area designer. Ugraded, luxurious but cozy and warm. Two master bedrooms have private baths. Main master has romantic king canopy bed, fireplace, seating area, whirlpool tub and separate shower. 2nd master has king bed and private bath. 3rd bedroom queen.with bath steps away. 5 star ambience and comfort meticulously maintained The home is set on a private heavily forested acre both natural and manicured with flowers abundant. There are many seating and dining areas on the grounds and next to the creek. Nested into a mountain subdivision, beautifully forested golf course and restaurant/ clubhouse all accessible to guests. Home is single story with an open concept great room with cathedral wood ceiling and large stone fireplace. (Wood provided.) Three steps up to bedrooms. Very large deck has stairs to yard and creek. Deck has l table for 6 and barstools at kitchen outside counter, wrought iron chaise and sectional for lounging under cover. Lower terrace has dining for 4. Five unique and relaxing seating areas in yard/gardens. WIFI. Circular drive for ample parking. Spacious yet inviting great room with pop up (by remote control) cable TV hidden in cabinet, fully appointed dream kitchen, laundry, dining area seats 4- 6 (8 upon request), breakfast bar seats 2. Deer visit usually daily along with racoons, squirrels, abundant bird species and a blue heron. On summer nights, keep windows/slider open and let the creek lull you to restful sleep. Or lay on the deck in the chaise for an afternoon nap after aperitifs on the island in the center of the creek. Perfect spot for a wedding, reception, reunion. No smoking on the property and no pets.

We were really looking forward to spending our Christmas holiday here, and the stay did not disappoint. The home was very nice, comfortable, and welcoming. The host was great — very responsive and quick to reply to our messages. We especially loved the Christmas tree she set up for us and the fresh flowers placed in every room. Those little touches made our stay feel extra special. Highly recommended

Liked: Check-in, communication, location
Disliked: Cleanliness, listing accuracy
Highs: location to nearby family, downtown Grass Valley and proximity to Nevada City. Check in was easy, and check out is noon which is nice. Communication with host was quick & efficient. Table was set for Thanksgiving upon arrival - it was very nice. Lows: you get an idea of the decor from the pictures but, there is so much more. Something on every table, counter or open space. We had to clear off many things to make space. Despite all the lamps the house is very dark. Half way through our stay we were tired of reading by our phone light so we went out and bought two lightbulbs. While we were out we bought a kitchen size trash can (the house came with a small bathroom trashcan for the kitchen). TV is very old and very small, in one room. DirecTv didn't work. None of the bedrooms or bathrooms had adequate light. The heater is very loud. The septic was being worked on and there were large warped planks of wood in the driveway. Fridge is old, ice/water didn't work. Dishwasher has buttons missing. It takes a very long time to get hot water, a circulating pump is necessary for a house this size. The house needs a lot of work to be a proper vacation rental.

Beautiful Home and Grounds
My Husband, 15 year old and I rented this house for 3 1/2 days and 4 nights. We spent two full days at the Celtic Festival there in Grass Valley but slept at the house at night.. The other days we were able to be at the house the whole time. The house is very charming and and very comfortable. We were surprised by all the knickknacks and I think the first day we must have spent a good hour just looking at all the knickknacks. Absolutely charming! It very much reminded me of my Grandmothers house. We enjoyed an evening down in the seated areas which was very nice. We love waking up to seeing a family of deer looking out the bathroom window. It was funny as our 15 year old refused to sleep in the bedroom that would have been his. He didn't want to wake up with deer's staring at him or (Big Foot) as he put it. We were very surprised by that but the couch was very comfortable to rest on. The toilets were a surprise and I will leave it at that but nothing bad, just interesting. We would recommend this property. I have a feeling at Christmas it would be amazing and I have a feeling the owner would add that holiday charm! I would like to say Thank you to the owner!
Wow! Such attention to detail and cleanliness and everything you could ever need and what. Incredibly decorated classy and fun thank you for being so magical
This was our second year staying at this property. We hope next year to make it a third. The house was clean, great decorations and overall a very comfortable stay. I would like to Thank the owner for sharing her home with us!
We had a wonderful time at Creekside Paradise. The house and grounds is like a museum. Beautifully decorated. Every step in the house is a new discovery of different collection...
We liked it a lot and hopefully will be back. Thank you Kathy!

Beautiful home and wonderful host :)
Kathy’s home was exactly as pictured, beautifully decorated and with an amazing peaceful backyard on a creek. Be careful with young children, there’s a lot of small breakable. Makes the house beautiful but you just have to make sure to watch your kids well so nothing gets broken. The bed was comfortable, good central location and we enjoyed our stay. Thank you!

wonderful experience at an exquisite property
Kathy: thank you for sharing your delightful home. It was a Christmas present to my family that was thoroughly enjoyed by all. Your electric holiday ornaments and decor were so special and joyful it made for a special celebration. The obvious love you put into your home and garden gives it a welcoming and comfortable feeling which was enhanced by your prompt and attentive responses to my questions during the stay. In short, I could not have asked for a more perfect spot to escape to for a few days. We cannot wait to return in the spring to see the plethora of plants, flowers and blossoms blooming. Thank you for sharing such a gorgeous and hospitable home with us. I would be delighted to recommend it to others and you may feel free to offer my contact information should prospective renters have any questions - of course, I would prefer to keep it a closely guarded secret! Best wishes, Ken
