About this property
Sierra City Loves Falls Cabin - Walking Distance to Waterfall & PCT
Step out the door and walk ten minutes to the Pacific Crest Trail or down Wild Plum Road to the bridge over the Haypress-Yuba river confluence. Sardine and Salmon Lakes — and the entire Lakes Basin — are a ten-minute drive, with miles of trails, alpine swimming, and jaw-dropping scenery.
Back at the cabin, the great room is warm and welcoming, with a wood-burning stove and easy access to two decks — one framing views of the Sierra Buttes through the trees. Fast WiFi means you can stream movies on the projector after long days outside, or keep up with work if you need to.
The layout: Everything you need — great room, full kitchen, main bedroom, and bathroom — is on the main floor. Upstairs (via spiral staircase) has a queen and two twin beds in an open loft-style space, great for families or friend groups. Well-behaved dogs are welcome.

Lovely home in a lovely neighborhood. We loved taking the trail near the house to Love Falls and the home was peaceful and cozy with a well-stocked kitchen. Would definitely go back.
Nice quaint quite cabin. Our family of four was very comfortable. The kitchen was well stocked and we made food several nights. The walk to the falls is about a mile, and you can also walk through the neighborhood to the river. The cabin was a nice home base for visiting the Lakes Basin area, Kentucky Mine, and Lost Sierra.
We had a wonderful stay, a third time in three years. It suited our family very well. The cabin was very clean when we arrived and well appointed with all we might want to use for cooking, playing a few games, reading books and a great binder with clear info about the area. Our host was very responsive with messages. There is lots to do in the area--fishing, hikes, swimming at Sand Pond--a bit of a drive and well worth it.
Lovely great room, fantastic for getting together with friends. Elegant and easy to access. Located just slightly out of Sierra City. The spiral stair to the upstairs is a tight fit, but we enjoyed our stay. One bedroom downstairs, everything else is upstairs. Great main room for movies, communal dinner, etc. Two decks to stargaze and watch the trees in the daytime.

Spent a wonderful weekend at Catherine's cabin! Check-in was smooth and easy, and the great room was both expansive and cozy at the same time. Would definitely recommend!

Shaun, thanks for the review. Spring hiking is on.please dont hesitate to reach out. We love repeat guests that we can trust with our special woodland get away.
Great place, great location. Main room was roomy and cozy. Owners were very responsive and extremely accomodating. We had a great time and enjoyed our stay very much. We ended up mistakenly taking one of their pillows home with us and they were very understanding and patient about getting it returned to them!
We stayed at this house for our winter vacation for few days. The location was very nice, beautiful and quiet neighborhood. The house was very spacious and had everything we needed. Perfect place for family vacation in nature :)
Loved our time here. Great room was fun for gathering and the dinner table made meals with everyone easy!
A little hot upstairs and in the bedroom but otherwise nice!
The house was very comfortable and the location perfect for a Sierra Buttes getaway; we were there for the change of seasons and the first snow. House warmed up perfectly using the wood stove. We’ll be back!
What a neat spot! It's in a nice quiet neighborhood with trails nearby and many more just down the road. The house is quite large but has everything you could want. Can't wait to come back in the summer :)
Came up to the mountains for late September fishing and hiking, weather got frisky, had to spend extra time indoors...very spacious family room...had a great time in a beautiful and quiet part of California.
We stayed here over New Year's Eve and had so much fun. There is plenty of places nearby for snow fun and the cabin is the perfect place to come back and warm up in. There are games, a fully stocked kitchen and plenty of space for sleeping and hanging out. The mudroom with washer and dryer made coming in from the snow easier.
We would definitely stay here again!

We are two Sacramento based families and try and get up to Sierra City as often as we can. We absolutely love the cabin, neighborhood and community. Every season has its charms.
