Rocky Cliff Retreat at Davis Lake

Escape to the Lost Sierra away from the hustle and bustle of the city. If you're looking for rejuvenation or quality family time, this is the place! Cozy up around the fireplace, play some games, read a book or simply disconnect and enjoy the silence. This roomy 2,800 sq. ft home has been recently updated with our guests needs in mind. Located within 1 mile of Davis Lake where you can spend a lazy afternoon fishing, kayaking or paddle boarding. If it is golf you prefer, Grizzly Ranch Golf course is just 7 minutes away and is ranked in the top 100 greatest public courses in the nation in 2021 Golf Digest. Not to mention 4 other golf courses in close proximity! Maybe you want to explore Graeagle? It just a short 1/2 hour drive away. Or sip a craft beer at Brewing Lair in Blairsden. For those people that want to explore what Plumas County has to offer, there are many great places to see such as Frazier Falls, Lakes Basin or Sardine Lake.
Hiking, biking and wildlife viewing is plentiful in the area during spring, summer and fall. In fact near the Davis Lake dam you will notice the bald eagle nest. During the winter months at the lake, you can spend a peaceful afternoon ice fishing or snowshoeing. For the adrenaline junkies bring your snowmobiles - there are plenty of places to go nearby!

Beautiful, spotless, welcoming home
The property is well kept, the decor is absolutely beautiful and welcoming. We had a great time during our stay, the house is located in a very dusty road but is really close to great hikes, lakes, stores, restaurants. We would absolutely stay here again. The managing company was very attentive to our needs, they responded very quickly.

Beautiful Cabin with lots of space and great atmosphere
Our party of 5 absolutely loved our stay here! It was clean, had all the amenities necessary, and even had a large collection of games to play. There were a handful of appliances including a blender, panini maker. The kitchen also had plenty of pots and pans to cook with, as well as plenty of utensils. We even made friends with one of the neighbors! Overall a great experience and a lovely location.

Cozy Retreat
Rocky Cliff Retreat was perfect for what we needed. It was a cozy, comfortable place for family from different states to meet up and relax for a few days. It was beautifully decorated and had lots of nice gathering spots within the cabin and on the deck so would work well for a larger group. The claw foot tub was popular with our crowd! Owners were responsive when contacted.
