If, after visiting Yosemite or Bass Lake you still need something to do, you can check out North Fork and Bass Lake’s local attractions. Just down the road from Fine Gold Retreat is beautiful Manzanita Lake. It is a perfect little lake with the most peaceful setting for fishing, swimming or just hanging out to feed the ducks. It even has built-in grills so you can BBQ a few hamburgers. Manzanita Lake is one of my favorite places. Trust me; you will not regret taking the time to visit this special place. There are numerous hiking trails you may ask us about. North Fork is also home to the Mono Indian Museum and an art gallery that hosts local mountain artists. North Fork has the best pizza and Mexican food restaurant you could ask for. It also has a family owned market. The Knarly Carrot is our local organic store hosting beautiful produce from our local farmers. Millers Landing at Bass Lake has an amazing menu of breakfast, burgers and fish tacos and much more... not to mention a beautiful view of Bass Lake. They also rent boating and water toys.

Beware, if you are a musician, you may get pulled in for a jam session:) Nielsen Road is a public access to a small neighborhood. The neighbors are very generous and friendly. To keep it that way, we ask that visitors respect the 15 mph rule while driving on the road. Rural area so no public transportation. Sorry:( Dogs live on the property. Also we live in a high fire danger area. Please be extremely cautious and abide by all fire restrictions as they change according to the particular fire seasons. Be advised we are in construction mode around the property. The back yard is undergoing a huge landscaping project. This will not affect you In anyway. It just isn’t as pretty😊
