Summary: Great place, lots of fun. Would recommend.
Mike M. Jul 12, 2024 06:28:48 AM
Summary: We had a great stay. We visited when avg hi temps were 100+, but Kathryn was extremely helpful with suggestions for paces to go that were cooler. It was great to walk right out back and use the canoes, row boats, kayaks & sup on the lake. By this time in summer (July) the lake was a bit low, quite warm and somewhat clogged with lily pads & other growth so we opted to swim elsewhere. So great to have all the gear we needed right there, too. Thanks, Kathryn!!

Summary: Fantastic week of swimming and relaxing.
Mary H. Apr 13, 2021 10:51:25 PM
Summary: We had such an amazing time this past week for spring break. Pictures don't do it justice, lodge was very well appointed, beds were amazingly comfortable and the property was just beautiful. Can't beat a fire by the lake. It was fun because we were there the week the lake was filling up so everyday our paddling experience on the lake was different! Loved the wildlife - saw several types of birds, a couple of turtles, and heard the frogs. Great hikes in the area, we easily found a few that worked for our 4 year old and dog. We liked to go for a hike in the am and then come back to the lake to relax in the pm. Kathyn's communication was top notch - responsive and proactive. We hope to come again.

Summary: The location was easy to get to and you're close to any amenities in Nevada City. It was nicely tucked away and perfectly secluded. The inside of the lodge was clean and tidy, and the bed was super comfortable. Very large grassy area was great for our two dogs. Definitely plan on bringing anti-tick topical treatment for your dogs; we dealt with at least 4 to 5 ticks on our golden retriever. He's also on combo-guard but we got a nice routine of always double and triple checking the dogs after any walks or play time. The internet is definitely slow but we didn't mind. We used the time to play lots of board games and watch movies. It's been a long time since I got to watch a VHS! (But they had a nice collection of DVDs too)

Summary: This was an excellent place to visit and stay. Great communication, cleanliness, amenities, the pictures don't do it justice. Will definitely be back!!!
Christine B. Oct 23, 2020 04:28:54 PM
Summary: We found the place relaxing. You can see lots of stars including the Milky Way and a shooting star. There is a lot of land to run around. It is about 45 minutes from Malakoff Diggins, which was great family excursion for hiking and social distancing. The price is a bargain compared to a hotel. It only has one bedroom, but the kids can sleep in the bunks in the living rooms and we moved a twin mattress from the bedroom to the living room to accommodate them. The kitchen is big. It is fairly clean, almost like as a hotel. An added bonus for us is it was not booked for 5 days, which gave us added assurance it was safe. We rather it been vacant for a few days, and know we can’t get COVID-19. All high-touch surfaces looked very clean. I highly recommend it!!!

Summary: We rented Watanda for a birthday celebration in early September and we really enjoyed everything it had to offer. The lodge was even bigger than the photos let on - giving us plenty of room for air conditioned sleeping and lots of cooking space for our large group. Our favorite part was the big fire ring and stage. The lake was dry for our visit but Kathryn was very communicative up front (weeks in advance) letting us know the likelihood of it being dry. In lieu of no water in back, she provided me with several swimming options nearby that we were able to enjoy. We went to Bridgeport on the Yuba River which was perfect. Would highly recommend and would love to return!
Danielle C. Jul 28, 2020 08:26:29 PM
Summary: This was a nice little get away from the huddle and bustle. The lake has turned already as of July 22nd.
Nathan W. Jul 23, 2020 11:34:39 PM
Summary: The property is well equipped, lots of land, and quiet. It’s also close to the south Yuba River which is highly recommended in the summer! The owners are very responsive and helpful. Look foreword to coming back sometime!
