Welcome to Shangri-La!
Sierra Shangri-La is a small mountain resort featuring housekeeping cottages and lodging rooms dramatically perched right on the bank of the North Yuba River. We are located in the heart of the northern Sierra Nevada, surrounded by scenic beauty, gold rush history, and unlimited outdoor recreation.
Our housekeeping cottages feature fully equipped kitchens, fireplaces, large covered decks and dramatic river views. Our lodging rooms are graciously appointed rooms on the second floor of the Lodge. They feature a large common balcony overlooking the river.

Sierra Bridge House
Situated on 12 1/2 acres, the Sierra Bridge House has been built over one of the most beautiful mountain stream tributaries of the North Fork of the Yuba River. Designed by the distinguished San Francisco architect Francis Joseph McCarthy, this property has been situated so that there are beautiful views of waterfalls, pools and river foliage from every room. The history of the house includes featured articles in periodicals such as Sunset magazine and Redwood Homes. The three bedroom, 2 1/2 bath, 3400 ft.² house includes 400 feet of the North Fork of the Yuba River and over 1800 feet of the rushing year-round creek that runs under the house. The house also includes a detached recreation room and coming soon will be a reading/meditation/art room. Hundreds of acres of forest service land border the property giving the ultimate privacy yet only three miles from the beautiful historic town of Downieville.
High Water!
We had some high water at the Bridge House in October of 2021. Check out the video below.
