The Phoenix at Willow Springs Near Yuba River

This is a unique, colorful, and fun cabin from which to launch into your Sierra adventures. The small air-conditioned cabin consists of a living room, kitchen (with full-sized refrigerator), bedroom, bathroom and large back deck. Good cell service for most providers, and the Wifi is plenty strong for work-from-home. The sofa in the living room pulls out into a bed. This cabin works best for a couple, or a couple with kids who could stay on the sofa bed. Sorry but no pets are allowed. Our goal is to offer guests a unique and memorable experience. Willow Springs is 3.7 acres that has been a residential community and artist hub through the years, and continues to host artists and life-enhancing retreats. As a guest at The Phoenix, you will have the freedom to explore the property and discover a myriad of interesting things. Witness the landmark hand-built Cobb wall, cut fresh herbs for your dinner in the memorial herb and flower garden, walk thru the newly started permaculture education garden, or just sit and watch the chickens. Wild critters live here as well, and if you are lucky you may get a glimpse of a shy fox or hear it bark during the night. Not-so-shy raccoons check here regularly during the night. Birders will enjoy the diversity of species found here at various times, attracted to the mulberries and bird feeders, such as hummingbirds, finches, bluebirds, pigeons, towhees, waxwings, nuthatches, hawks, acorn woodpeckers, and around the beginning of March large flocks of Sandhill cranes are in flight overhead on their migration route. Enjoying a cup of coffee and listening to the birds off the deck in the morning is magical. Located only 10 minutes from both the South Yuba River State Park, Oregon Creek State Park, and Bullards Bar Resevoir - you are in close proximity to many hiking, swimming, and recreating opportunities! Guests will have The Phoenix cabin completely to themselves, and can wander most parts of the property while respecting the rights of residents. There are 2 other small cabins located nearby with residents, but everyone is very friendly and there has never been any issue for guests. We live nearby and are always available by mobile phone should you have any questions or need anything. This is your vacation, so even though we are friendly and quite social ourselves, we will let you set the level of interaction after your arrival and introduction to the property.
