Family-friendly vacation rentals in Kingvale

Land Yacht AirDream - w/ Hot tub & Creek access

Just a 4-minute drive from downtown Nevada City and yet totally secluded, this absurdly magical Airstream Land Yacht has elevated glamping to the next level. Imagine being completely nestled under a canopy of trees while maintaining every creature comfort you can imagine. Hot tub? Check. Creek access? Wifi? Check. Outdoor shower and movies over a gas fire pit? Check, check. No expense was spared to both design and create this epic yet romantic, one-of-a-kind vacation experience. Bon Voyage!

Cozy Kingvale Cabin - Ski lease available

The heat of summer is cooling as we settle into cozy fall, with winter right around the corner. Plan a getaway for hiking, mountain biking or snuggling by the fire with a book. Or plan ahead for the ski season! We get epic snow every year with easy access to Boreal, Sugar Bowl and Royal Gorge just a few mins away. Expect tons of charm in this rustic, "old Kingvale" cabin. Accommodates 4-6 comfortably. Situated conveniently near the freeway but feels like the backcountry. Best of both worlds!
