I have owned this property since 1999. It was built in 1953.
Penn Valley is so named because this is where the pens were that they brought the cattle to sort and ship to Sacramento for auction.
This property was the lodging area and still has one old bunkhouse, which is a current rental.
It has the oldest, largest in ground pool left in Nevada County.
The water rights have been with this property for over 80 years so sprinklers run all summer.
We have great well water for the house and our campers.
I currently breed stock dogs, and Dexter cattle here and ride and train horses.
I have ridden and trained horses for over 50 years.
It is a pretty active place with lots of work and coming and going.
We do chores at about 8 am.
Horses frogs and dogs are majority of disturbances.
It is
close to everything but in a very small community.
No lodging near though.
The horticulture here is very old, some originally brought from England.
Most of it is let grow natural.
There are two coffee houses nearby, Honey and Cream and Crazy 4 Yogurt.
It is a 30 minute drive to the river.
It is a 15 minute drive to historic Nevada City and beautiful downtown Grass Valley with wonderful shopping, local bars and both fine and casual dining.
Empire Mine is a an exquisite park and historical site only 10 min away.
Spenceville Wildlife Refuge is a great day adventure also.
Guests are welcome to watch us work horses and take care of animals.
We have 4 barn cats too.
Things run pretty old school here still and casual.
We enjoy our work, our animals, our simple life, nature and the land.
