A once-in-a-lifetime Sierra retreat, 22 private acres with rare Yuba River frontage, ultimate seclusion, and a fully off-grid lifestyle in the gated community of Towle Mountain. Three thoughtfully designed cabins create a private mountain compound, offering the perfect setting for unforgettable gatherings, multi-generational living, and year-round adventure. Designed for both recreation and relaxation, this one-of-a-kind property blends rustic charm with elevated amenities in a setting that feels worlds away. At the heart of the estate is a custom-built saloon, your own mountain speakeasy, featuring a cherry wood and granite bar, kegerator, beer taps, wine room, vintage 1907 wood stove, pool table, and hidden-style entrance that sets the tone for entertaining. Three well-appointed 1BD/1BA cabins offer kitchens, fireplaces, soaking tubs, and covered decks. Emma’s Cabin overlooks a wildflower meadow with tranquil Yuba River views. A 1,000 sq ft apartment above the workshop and saloon provides flexible space for guests, caretakers, or creative use, while the original rustic cabin delivers authentic mountain nostalgia. Enjoy direct river access with granite slabs for swimming and fishing, plus nearby trails to Lola Montez Lake. In winter, this transforms into a snowmobile paradise with access via snowcat or sled from the gated entrance. Multiple level building areas provide expansion potential for additional structures, parking, or recreational storage. Fully self-sustaining with solar, generators, propane, septic, and a shared spring-fed well. Although it feels completely secluded, it's just minutes from Donner Summit’s renowned ski resorts, alpine lakes, and trail systems. Whether envisioned as a private family compound, corporate retreat, event venue, or legacy investment, this is more than a property—it’s a lifestyle. Shown by appointment only.
