About this property

Rocky Cliff Retreat at Davis Lake

  • Escape to the Lost Sierra away from the hustle and bustle of the city. If you're looking for rejuvenation or quality family time, this is the place! Cozy up around the fireplace, play some games, read a book or simply disconnect and enjoy the silence. This roomy 2,800 sq. ft home has been recently updated with our guests needs in mind. Located within 1 mile of Davis Lake where you can spend a lazy afternoon fishing, kayaking or paddle boarding. If it is golf you prefer, Grizzly Ranch Golf course is just 7 minutes away and is ranked in the top 100 greatest public courses in the nation in 2021 Golf Digest. Not to mention 4 other golf courses in close proximity! Maybe you want to explore Graeagle? It just a short 1/2 hour drive away. Or sip a craft beer at Brewing Lair in Blairsden. For those people that want to explore what Plumas County has to offer, there are many great places to see such as Frazier Falls, Lakes Basin or Sardine Lake.
    Hiking, biking and wildlife viewing is plentiful in the area during spring, summer and fall. In fact near the Davis Lake dam you will notice the bald eagle nest. During the winter months at the lake, you can spend a peaceful afternoon ice fishing or snowshoeing. For the adrenaline junkies bring your snowmobiles - there are plenty of places to go nearby!

Perfect stay to visit the lakes

We really enjoyed our stay at Rocky Cliff! The house was very spacious and we had lots of room to rest, watch movies, read and play board games. The BBQ was perfect for our summer dinners and the kitchen was so fun to cook in: spacious with everything you need. Beautiful place too! Great experience.

We had a great time during our stay, the house is located in a very dusty road but is really close to great hikes, lakes, stores, restaurants. We would absolutely stay here again.

Cozy Retreat

Rocky Cliff Retreat was perfect for what we needed. It was a cozy, comfortable place for family from different states to meet up and relax for a few days. It was beautifully decorated and had lots of nice gathering spots within the cabin and on the deck so would work well for a larger group. The claw foot tub was popular with our crowd! Owners were responsive when contacted.

Very Comfortable

Was a really hot stretch of weather but having the downstairs so cool helped a lot and it cooled enough that we could use a fan in the upper bedroom. The house is well appointed, clean and plenty of room to spread out.

The home was absolutely beautiful, the pictures do not do them justice. Serene beautiful setting, easily accommodated our family of 8 with room to spare. Host has thought everything, the towels, UGG pillows and bedding to the fully stocked kitchen. Only downfall was we wish we would have booked home for a longer stay. Can’t wait to come back and experience this home in the winter months and snow.
