Downieville Loft
Downieville, California

Originally built in 1867, the “Weaver” building, as it is known in the county, was completely remodeled from 2001-2005. Since its new paint job in 2004, the building is now often referred to as the “Boardwalk and Park Place” of Downieville.
The section of the building on Main St. that originally housed a dry goods store, is now home of Yuba Expeditions (http://www.yubaexpeditons.com) , Downieville’s host to the Downieville Classic.
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 and has spectacular river side and mountain views, a large dining room and kitchen area, two fireplaces and two full baths.
The downstairs basement is the “Yuba Lounge”, a central meeting point where mountain bikers catch the shuttle for the famous Downieville Downhill and rafters meet to attempt the Class V Maytag run. Overlooking the confluence of the Downie and North Yuba rivers on the Main St. of town, this building has been the center of activity since the Gold Rush Days. Opened as a vacation rental in the summer of 2005 after a 4 year renovation, the 2,500 square ft loft is a great getaway for the family or a group of friends looking to have every luxury of home while enjoying the beautiful Sierra Nevada.
