Secluded getaway with Private Pool and Hottub, 45 minutes from slopes

Our private, nature-drenched house is located between Auburn and Colfax CA is the perfect place to relax with the whole family. Enjoy the Hottub looking over the beautiful view of pine-covered hills, or dip in the private pool at your leisure. On the way to Ski resorts (less than 1 hour) and within proximity of conveniences, enjoy the privacy of nature while preserving easy access to all the things you need.

Our goal was to make a place that is easy for families with kids of all ages - we know what it's like to travel with your family. No need to run through the house, putting all the breakables up high - our house is kid-friendly! This is the best place for multigenerational family get-togethers or split the rental with other families and have a nature get-away.

Sitting on 5 acres, there is plenty of land to explore and engage in nature. The pool is the perfect place for the kids to splash and adults to relax. The house has two bedrooms and bathrooms upstairs and two bedrooms, one bathroom downstairs, and two separate kitchens. There are tons of nooks for kids to play and explore, both inside and out.

We know you'll love staying at Dawn Ridge.

Relaxing stay in a great location
Great location, spacious home. Spa on a starry night, relaxing and inspiring. Appreciated great communication with the host. The EV charger was a nice touch. Can easily accommodate a full family or even a couple of families. Would happily return with our full family, but certainly enjoyed the space with just the two of us.

WONDERFUL!!
We loved everything about being in this beautiful home! Believe it or not it's actually even more beautiful than the pictures show. The hosts were extremely generous, accommodating, and easy to interact with. So peaceful. An amazing view. .... and fun! What a fun pool! with a rock to jump off (and lots of floaty toys, though my group was using in Feb. so more of a cold plunge than soak float action). We will definitely stay here and again and are already talking about when we can make that happen. We were a group of women (40s, 50s, and one 60yr. old) and a few 16 yr. old daughters, and a few dogs. Lucky us! Highly recommend this home for anyone that values "nice."

Reunion slumber party (we are in our 70's)
We have known each other since grammar school. We started having "slumber parties" after our 20th class reunion. Most of us went to junior high together but others have know each other longer. There were 8 of us and room for all. The deck and pool were inviting, but it was an unusual 95 degrees in October and a bit hot for us. But we played games and ate lots of wonderful food together. One of the main stars of this trip were our Hosts. They were always there for me sometimes within minutes of when I emailed them. There was everything we could possibly need. We laughed for two days. I would say for family groups the bunks were perfect, but the top ones were challenging. Two of us found out the couches in the living room were comfortable enough to sleep on. The view was wonderful and we did spend some visiting time on the deck once the sun had set. There was a lot of extras in the fridge but we had brought what we needed and were ok with what we brought. One thing was there were pine needles and debris on the sidewalks (because there had been wind) and driveways and path to the pool. But my husband swept them all up for us. All in all we loved our stay there and would recommend it for all ages.

Perfect Multi-Family Getaway!
Our extended family (age range 71 to 10 plus 3 little chihuahuas) just returned from a wonderful stay at this beautiful property. The home was clean and spacious with a big, well stocked kitchen, and beautiful views from the living room and dining area. The family loved evenings on the large upper deck which had multiple seating areas, a hot tub, BBQ, and a gas fire ring. The grand-kids (and the big boys) loved the downstairs, which is actually a complete 2 BR unit that had its own patio, bathroom, kitchen, and den with a big screen TV. Very kid friendly with high chair, booster seats, toys, and some "small scale" furniture as well as regular couches and a giant bean bag lounger. We set up the downstairs for video games and spreading out a large "in progress" jigsaw puzzle on the downstairs dining table which kept the upstairs living area table free for meals and card games (and free from "light saber" sound effects). The biggest hit for everyone, and the most thoroughly used feature, was of course the pool! As with everything at this house, it also was thoughtfully stocked with necessities from pool noodles to sunscreen and swim diapers. Everyone was really happy and had a great time here, and we wouldn't hesitate to rent again!

Fourth of July Family Vacation
We were not sure what to expect and boy were we surprised! The pictures of this property do not do it justice. The house was beautiful and it had everything we needed and then some. The extra bonus of have a pool and two kitchens was fantastic. Our family was able to create wonderful memories here celebrating Fourth of July. Our hosts were great! We will definitely be back!
