A beautiful property in eastern Nevada

This particular trip was not exactly a vacation. Members of my family gathered to fulfill my father’s wish to have his ashes spread near his birthplace of Baker, NV. I wanted to find someplace that would allow the entire family to gather and spend quality time together, rather than being partitioned off in hotel rooms, and this wonderful home fit the bill beautifully. The property is spacious, beautifully decorated, and has more than enough space for everyone to spread out and relax. The large kitchen allowed multiple generations to gather and prepare dinner together, which was much better than dining in a local restaurant. There are ample plates, dishes, and cooking tools. Local wildlife is plentiful, and using the spotting scope (a well thought out amenity) we were able to see deer and elk grazing nearby. We did find a small rattlesnake in the back yard, which was safely relocated over the back fence. Beds were comfortable, and everyone reported that they slept well. The basement game room wasn’t heavily utilized, but is a great space to relax. The arcade machine is loaded with hundreds of classic retro arcade games, and the theater has a sound system that will rock your socks off! All in all, while our visit wasn’t for the happiest of reasons, we could not have asked for a better place to stay. We are already working on planning another, longer visit to spend some more quality time in this beautiful part of Nevada.

Great place in a nice peaceful valley not to far from the main road

Great property to stay and I bet it’s even more beautiful in the summer with the tree blooming. Nice kitchen for cooking and hang out time. It was a big of a drive to ice fishing but we got all 12 guys in a really nice place so it was worth it.

Everything we could want.

The property was everything we could ask for. Quite and away from the noise and distractions of life. Beautiful from the landscape to the design of the cabin, and provided everything we would seek in a rental. We took a group of 4 adults and 13 teenagers and it was more then enough. Highly recommend,

About the host

Hosted by Anne Disher

All we could think about when this property was undergoing its dramatic restoration in 2020 was how we hoped family and friends would find all kinds of ways to enjoy the property. We created a giant kitchen and dining room for family meals together. There are two living rooms, a game room and six-person plus theater. The fire pit seats 15 and the grounds are ideal for large gatherings.

The 12-acre property offers unobstructed views of the Duck Creek Basin - considered by many to be one of Nevada's most beautiful spots.

Why they chose this property

Located in Nevada's coveted Section 111, Duck Creek Basin is one of the Silver State's top spots to watch both the deer and elk along with eagles, hawks, owls and other creatures who make their homes in the Great Basin. It's close proximity to Ely and McGill in Eastern Nevada make it an ideal location for a family vacation or a romantic getaway.

The night sky is one of the basin's top features.
