Our Story

Tucked away beneath towering pines on the edge of historic downtown Grass Valley, The Pines Inn & Cottages is a peaceful boutique retreat where rustic charm meets modern comfort. Thoughtfully renovated and surrounded by beautifully landscaped grounds, our intimate inn offers a relaxing escape for couples, solo travelers, families, and outdoor enthusiasts alike.

Whether you're visiting for a performance at the nearby Center for the Arts, exploring the shops and restaurants of downtown, or discovering the natural beauty of the Wildflower Ridge Preserve, you'll find the perfect place to unwind. Access two scenic trails that wind through the preserve, or simply relax on the property and enjoy the tranquility of the Sierra foothills.

At The Pines Inn & Cottages, every stay is an invitation to slow down, reconnect with nature, and experience the welcoming spirit that makes Grass Valley such a memorable destination.
