I found this place by chance as I was driving through the historic district of Nevada City and I was charmed by its location and cute landscape. I arrived after hours and the owner/manager still made me feel very welcomed. Within minutes I was given a key. I liked the fact I could park my car right next to my... More

My husband and I stayed in the Creekside Hideaway the night of our wedding. It was gorgeous and perfect, because it was set away from all the other rooms, on the other side of town. Most of our guests also stayed in rooms at the Outside Inn, and I didn't hear even one complaint. The service was wonderful, the prices... More

My wife and son stayed here for two nights, three days while attending our older sons wedding. Most of the wedding party stayed here as we'll. The staff handled all of our requests from irons and ironing boards to hair dryers without pause. They were polite and accommodating. All the rooms have names and the room decor followed the name....

Back again this year -such a great place for a short getaway with the poopies... We've been coming every year for at least five years running, and enjoy it the same everytime. Hiking/biking trails right out the back door, great food/shopping only two blocks away. Three days without getting in the car to drive anywhere. Heaven.

My husband and I just returned from a four day weekend in Nevada City. The stayed in The Cabin at The Outside Inn and had an amazing time. The unit is much larger than it appears from the outside. The king-sized bed is so incredibly comfortable and the lines on the bed came from a high end company and are... More

Second stay at Outside Inn! Adorable motor court inn - loved walking to town for tea, dinner & to check out the shops. A couple of summers ago, we rented "The Cabin" --- loved taking dips in the pool (crystal clean, BTW), rinsing off the hiking dust in the outdoor shower, & swinging on the chairlift swing! In March 2013,... More

This is a modest motel with only a few rooms, but is very comfortable. It feels very homey, more like staying in a friends guest room rather than a motel. Each room is unique and artsy, not commercial. It is close to the historic downtown in a quiet residential section. The staff is friendly and accommodating. It is perfect for... More

My wife and I took an anniversary trip to Nevada City. We stayed at The Outside Inn and were impressed with how "cool" it was. It is a renovated 1940s style motor court. It is clean and has many "fun" amenities. We stayed in the Wild Flower Room (pictured) and the bed was surprisingly comfortable. The staff is very pleasant... More

We enjoyed our stay for a birthday night away. We stayed in the Celestial Room and loved the decorations, especially the glow in the dark stars on the ceiling. The bed was a bit uncomfortable, but the location of the Inn and how clean it was, was worth it. A helpful tip, make sure you make reservations at a restaurant... More
