Wireless Internet Connection

We've finally done it! Deer Creek Inn, that grand old Victorian lady, has ventured into the 21st century. Now, our guests can log onto wireless internet in the comfort of their room or in the parlor. It's high speed DSL connectivity with our compliments. Now you can check your e-mail or surf the net whenever you want.

Boosted Cell Signal

By June 2005 we will have installed a new system that will enhance the following Cellular providers: Verizon, AT&T, Cingular, AllTel, Cellular One, CricKet, Qwest, Opex, Sure West, T-Mobile, Western wireless, and U.S. Cellular. At that time, guests with the "right connections" will be able to speak with their admirers.

Runner's Delight

Ken is a runner and has put together a number of fun runs and walks beginning and ending at the Inn. They range from an easy walk up through town to the more difficult Deer Creek Challenge. We will give you a map so you don't get lost.

For a short nice walk, I recommend starting with the Miners Trail and then walking up through town and then finishing by way of Coyote Street. This walk could be anywhere between ¾ of a mile to 1 ½ miles. An added feature to this walk is the opportunity to view the historical architecture of Nevada City. It is quite interesting.

For an easy run there is a 3 mile loop with only minor elevation changes. It begins with the Miners Trail that runs along Deer Creek for about a ¼ of a mile. The run continues for approximately 1 ¼ miles across the Pine Street Bridge and along the old tree-covered road that was once the main through fare into Nevada City before the freeway was built. Then it is back across the freeway along more tree-covered streets and home for another 1 ½ miles.

The Deer Creek Challenge is a circle run that climbs about 750 feet and is about 7.5 to 8 miles long. It starts with about a 2 ¼ mile up-hill climb along a tree-covered road to the Deer Creek Park Canal Trail. From there the run meanders along the canal for approximately 3 ¼ miles. The canal run is covered with trees and provides great views of Nevada City and the surrounding area. When you again reach the road it is 2 ¼ miles down-hill to the inn.

Flying to the Nevada County Airport?

Why rent a car that will sit idle in our lot while you stroll around town. Simply let us know your itinerary and we'll arrange ground transportation to the inn.
