Right on Main Street , this spacious, remodeled loft occupies the top two stories of the building and has spectacular river side and mountain views. The bottom floor is home to Yuba Expeditions, host to the Downieville Classic and where mountain bikers catch the shuttle for the Downieville Downhill.

The space
Originally built in 1867, the "Weaver" building, as it is known in the county, was completely remodeled in 2005. The third story, originally storage for the store, was remodeled into rental loft accommodations complete with hand made furniture and trim salvaged from Kezar stadium bleachers in San Francisco.

The loft sleeps up to eight guests in three queen size beds and three trundle beds in a loft style space -- not great for romantic couples but GREAT for large groups of friends or bike buddies.

Lives in San Francisco, California
My friend Jeff and I got this building together and plan to use it ourselves with our friends when we can and rent it out when we can't. He is a lab scientist guy and I am a financial analyst, both in San Francisco. We are pretty hands off hosts, as we are located in San Francisco, but we are really happy to be able to share this gorgeous place with everyone. Seriously, it's beautiful up there. The first night we ever arrived in the town.. within 5 minutes a bear casually strolled by in the parking lot - yay!
