Empire Mine State Historic Park protects the largest, deepest, and richest mines in the California Gold Rush period and operated from 1850 - 1956. It produced 5.8 Million ounces of gold that was extracted from 367 miles of passages. It also houses the exquisite "Cottage" built between 1898 and 1905 with beautiful extensive stately formal and informal gardens with fountains surrounding the home. Although the grounds, Cottage, and Mine are impressive, the picture shown stands out in the photos of the garden.

"I loved our stay in our cottage. The grounds were beautifully maintained, cute and so comfortable. Our room was so nicely set up everything you could need. The whole place was beautifully decorated. You can tell the person that owns the place really loves what they're doing. We received great information on what to do in town. We loved downtown grass Valley, the shopping the food, especially the ice cream. I'm already planning a trip to go back for a girls weekend. This is the type of place if you wanted to run away and hide out for a couple days just to relax and find peace. You would come here."
