Parks & Nature
The Bridgeport Covered Bridge, built in 1862, has the longest clear span of any surviving covered bridge in the world.
It is only 10-15 minutes away from the Cottage and the South Yuba River at this point is a favorite swimming spot in the summer and hiking all year. It can get crowded on summer weekends, but you walk further up the Buttermilk Trail to find a quiet spot for your play.
There are several trails that leave from there and features scenic vistas of fast water boiling over massive granite ledges, historic toll crossings and a small museum telling a story of day-to-day life during the Gold Rush era.
