Welcome to Bear River Ranch
"A Great Vacation Rental"

Whether you want lots of action or lots of relaxation,
Bear River Ranch Vacation Rental offers the perfect combination
for your short or long-term vacation getaway

Bear River Ranch Vacation Rental combines comfort and conservation by offering guests the opportunity to experience nature first-hand while enjoying the comforts of a stylish, unique ranch setting. Bring your horse to this private equestrian center - a safe and fun place for children, horses, and dogs to romp and play freely - or enjoy a romantic getaway for two. Bear River Ranch Vacation Rental is ideal for the business traveler, corporate retreats, or for a beautiful wedding setting.

Tucked away on 30 acres in the heart of Northern California Gold Country and the Sierra foothills - the endurance capital of the country - Bear River Ranch Vacation Rental provides breathtaking views and nature trails that are sure to please. Enjoy easy access to many scenic trails (including training for Tevis trails and other endurance/XP events), canyons, and rafting on the American and Yuba Rivers. Bear River Ranch Vacation Rental is close to the Western States Trail, which is great training for endurance riding.

Bear River Ranch Vacation Rental now offers a variety of individual, family, and group vacations, both self-guided and guided: hiking, road and mountain biking, horseback trail riding, walking, cross-country skiing, snowshoeing, and just plain old vacationing.

Our guests are honeymooners, those celebrating special occasions, and outdoor adventurers who love hiking, horseback riding, road and mountain biking, and bird watching. An appreciation of our blend of a mountain setting with luxury accommodations brings our guests back quite often.

Spend a day trail-riding, hiking, mountain biking, cycling the backroad regions, fishing the bountiful area lakes, rafting the American River, exploring or just relaxing beneath a star-filled sky at this unique ranch setting.

Nearby are championship golf courses, historical museums, cultural events, antiquing, wine tasting, art galleries, specialty shopping, and five-star dining and entertainment.

Consider Bear River Ranch Vacation Rental for your extended stays: when you're relocating, renovating, retreats, family gatherings, in escrow, or as just a nice gift for you and your family, friends, and horse lovers.

The beautifully-decorated guest rooms offer king and queen-sized beds, full baths, and all the comforts of home, including WIFI internet access, TV, or just lounging on one of our many picturesque decks to embrace the tranquility and panoramic beauty.

Cancelation Policy
Refunds are dependent upon our ability to find a substitute tenant. If a cancellation is made prior to receipt of any of the payment, your deposit would be refunded only if we can find a substitute tenant.
For cancellations made after payment of any portion of the rent, forfeiture of the rent received would result if we are unable to find a substitute tenant, but the deposit and city tax would be returned. If we should need to re-advertise in order to fill your cancellation, we would deduct any expenses incurred in trying to re-rent the condo from any monies due to you. (This generally would only occur if a cancellation is made within 1-3 weeks of the arrival date.)
If you should need to cancel, we will make every effort to find a substitute tenant. (For the few people who have canceled to date, we have been able to find other renters.)

Bear River Ranch Vacation Rental is a non-smoking facility. All rates subject to 10.0% Transient Occupancy Tax.

Pets Are Welcome

We are happy to accommodate house-trained, good natured pets. We also accpet well-behaved pet owners, particularly if their pets can vouch for them. Our pet fee is $25 per pet/per night.

If you plan to bring your pet(s), you must notify us at the time you make your reservation, as pets are not allowed inside. We have arranged designated "Pet-friendly" areas outside. We ask that our guests follow these pet guidelines:

  • You are responsible for your pet's behavior. We have an outdoor grassy area and trash receptacle available for your use. Pets must remain on leashes or under your command at all times while on ranch property.
  • Feel free to bring your pet's favorite blanket or bed.
  • We like that pet owners use Frontline for pest control so their animals are more comfortable.
  • Aggressive dogs are not accepted, nor are young pups. Your loving pet must be good around other people and like all dogs. We ask that larger dogs be restricted to 90 pounds. Pet owners will be responsible for any damages, injury or lost revenue that may be caused by your pet.
