There are three restaurants all right in Town and one just up the road and one down the road. The Sierra City Hotel has nice dinners every weekend. The Mountain Creek serves breakfast, lunch and dinner all summer. The Red Moose cafe serves breakfast and lunch Thursday through Tuesday  and Herringtons offers fine dining and breakfast all summer. Just five minutes up the road is Bassett's which has all three meals, a store and gas, all the time. Finally, in summer Sardine Lake Lodge and Packer Lake offer excellent dining only 10 minutes from Town on pristine mountain lakes.

Extensive hiking for all skills all summer right up the street is the Pacific Crest Trail, and little hikes to waterfalls and such only minutes away. The hike to the Sierra Buttes Lookout over 8500 feet is directly behind the cabin.  In the summer months we drive our quad right from the cabin to this trail.  .

The general store is open every day offering every thing you could need including beer, wine and liquor. It also has a fine deli with great sandwiches. There is a Laundromat also attached.

The river is directly across Highway 49, below the cabin and you can get to it from many locations, a swimming hole included. There are many camp grounds within reach of Town that are right on rivers. There are  45 lakes, some  within 10 minutes of Sierra City, accessible by car or a nice hike that are full of trout. Gold lake is just up the road and will accommodate large boats. Sardine Lake rents fishing boats as well. If you four wheel drive or OHV, there are more OHV trails and plenty of parking at the cabin, which sits on 1/2 an acre.. If you fly fish, the North Fork of the Yuba and Salmon Creek are full of fish waiting for the knowledgeable angler.

Big Springs offers great wedding settings and meals and many wedding parties stay with us. The Kentucky Mine museum is wonderful and has music each week with professional venues. Sierra City sponsors Oktoberfest, has a Memorial Day all around Town yard sale, and the community host events throughout the summer. There is golf available in Graeagle only 25 minutes away. The Mountain Quail hunting is great in the fall.

Sierra City is the gateway to the Lakes Basin.  Highway 49 is plowed in the winter, is always open, and it is quiet after the sun goes down, unless the river and the birds are considered noise.  It is worth the drive, we are in the friendliest Town in Sierra County.
