What a dreamy space!! The Parsonage has been brilliantly restored. Every detail is highly considered for the absolute comfort and enjoyment of the guests. The people behind this space are as lovely as the space itself. My little business, The Sunroom, had the great pleasure of collaborating with other local businesses at an event hosted and curated by Bri at The Parsonage - I've never participated in a more lovely event. Much thanks to Bri and her incredible mind and vision. Please do yourself a favor and book your next stay at The Parsonage! read more

Overall, this was a lovely place. Location was awesome, the host responsive and the property was cool and quaint. I am giving it 3 stars because we rented a room for 3, and what we got was something barely big enough for two. Our room had two beds(one was tucked into the wall) with no closet, one small hook on a door and one luggage stand. Nowhere to store 3 people's stuff at all. There was a single chair, and two tiny bedside tables. No issues with the bathroom, which was spacious and nice. I was told it was "like a hotel room", but I don't agree. Awkward and cramped for 3 humans. Besides sitting outside, there was no literally nowhere for us to play cards, or eat takeout food. Nice place overall, but I felt a bit duped. We were literally instructed to not post to yelp unless it was five stars and to write them directly, but when I saw another review echoed my experience I just had to. read more

We booked Room 2 at The Parsonage expecting a traditional bed-and-breakfast stay in a historic home. The property is listed as a B&B on several platforms, the website features breakfast imagery, and the booking form asks for dietary restrictions, so we reasonably assumed breakfast and access to common areas were part of the experience. Instead, Room 2 functions more like a small private room rental with limited access to the house. We were surprised to learn upon arrival that we did not have access to the main house common areas. For us, shared spaces are a major part of what makes staying in a bed and breakfast enjoyable. The room itself was also extremely small. With a queen bed and a twin bed in the room, there was essentially no space to move around comfortably and no seating area at all. For three guests, there was nowhere to sit except on the beds, and simply walking around the room was difficult due to the tight layout. Breakfast was also not served. Two muffins were left for us despite the reservation being for three guests, and despite the booking form asking for dietary restrictions. We have stayed at many bed and breakfasts over the years throughout California--both coastal and wine country--and the experiences we've loved have always included warm hospitality, welcoming hosts, shared spaces to relax in, and memorable breakfasts. The common thread in these stays is that guests are encouraged to enjoy the home itself, interact with hosts, and relax in shared spaces. That sense of hospitality and atmosphere is the reason we choose B&Bs. While the building at The Parsonage is historic, Room 2 itself felt very modern and generic rather than reflecting the character of a historic inn. To be fair, the owners later pointed out that the website includes a detailed description and a floor plan showing the limited access for Room 2. However, we found the wording easy to misinterpret when booking, particularly given the B&B categorization, breakfast imagery on the site, and the dietary restriction field in the booking form. At approximately $280 for the night (including a $50 fee for a third guest), the experience did not match what we personally expect from a bed-and-breakfast stay. This room may work fine for travelers who simply want a small private room and plan to spend most of their time out in town. However, for guests specifically seeking the hospitality, shared spaces, and atmosphere that typically define a bed-and-breakfast experience, Room 2 may not meet those expectations. read more

My family stayed here together. 12 of us. It was a great introduction to the charm of Nevada City. You're in the heart of it's small town bustle. Close to Three Forks with great food and the Golden Era bar. The Parsonage is beautiful. A gorgeous fresh new face. Everything we needed. Especially loved the modern kitchen. And BBQ. read more

We had the pleasure of staying at this cute Victorian this week in Nevada City, CA. The Parsonage is an 1800's house that has been perfectly restored. This adorable 6-bedroom sits right at the end of a main street that looks like it's out of a hallmark movie. If you are looking for a great girl's getaway place, highly recommend! read more

See all

Everything about this home is wonderful! From the moment you walk in the door the historic, but modern, home was redesigned to accommodate the needs of intimate or large groups. There was nothing else located on Broad Street that would allow me to stay in a large single space with friends/couples from afar. I love that my time here was spent in conversation, playing music and exploring the city. The high speed internet allowed me to work and stream with ease, and the owners provided a luxurious experience. I will definitely be back with friends and can't wait for another stay at the Parsonage 1865. One night, my group had a private chef cook for us in the full kitchen. Wow. The whole night was impeccable. My group also appreciated the flexibility of multiple coffee/tea bars. read more

Had so much fun celebrating Halloween sitting on the porch and listening to music. Lovely private room with private parking and the croissants were delicious. My only complaint was that my husband couldn't use the shower because it was in a claw foot bath tub and he has knee problems. I, however, enjoyed a lovely bubble bath. Our host and hostess were very accommodating. read more

We rented out the entire house for a ladies night. We had the best time connecting in this beautiful home. No detail is left undone. Every single thing was beautiful and amazing! We had so much fun, eating dinner and cooking in the beautiful kitchen and socializing in the parlor. We went out on the town and danced the night away and then slept like queens in the comfy beds. We highly recommend renting this beautiful space for an event or just a night or two away. We all live in town and treated ourselves to this staycation and look forward to doing it again and again, and again! Thank you so much Bri for your hospitality and for creating such a beautiful space for our amazing community! read more
