Your private boutique retreat in the heart of Grass Valley / Nevada City
Welcome to Courchalet - Your forest boutique hotel.
Nestled in the pines between Nevada City & Grass Valley. We built it for our own family with safety, peace & comfort in mind.
We carefully designed every detail with no compromise: natural materials, panoramic windows, custom plasterwork, thoughtful lighting, & soft textures.
Though you're surrounded by nature, local restaurants, shops, wineries, & beautiful Rollingwood Reservoir for swimming & boating are all within 15 minutes or less
Courchalet is a two-story, design-forward smart home that blends European elegance with California freedom. With four uniquely styled bedrooms, 2.5 baths, a private elevator, three patios, and a hot tub under the trees — the house is perfect for families, couples, or friends seeking beauty and calm. Sleeps up to 10.
For entertainment you will have a large living room with huge TV, wood fireplace and a pool table.
Courchalet is private and safe with automatic gates, yet close to city life

Home was clean, fully stocked, and very close to everything we wanted to go do. Host was very prompt with responses when we had any questions. Overall a great stay! Would rent from them again!
We loved our stay at this home! I’ve stayed in many rental homes and this is probably the most uniquely beautiful home I’ve ever stayed in. The hosts were helpful and communicative, offering early check in and late check out (although we couldn’t use them). The property was beautiful and the home was fully stocked with all that we needed. Would definitely stay here again if we are back in the area!
