Just a short drive from Tahoe City, Palisades Tahoe, and Northstar, as well as the lake itself, this retreat offers prime access to hiking and biking trails within minutes. The layout is thoughtfully designed for privacy and convenience. On the lower level, a spacious studio-style primary bedroom awaits, featuring a California king size bed, complete with its own private bathroom and a mini kitchen area. This suite provides a cozy yet private space and is never rented separately from the main house, ensuring complete privacy for your group. Upstairs, the open-concept living area invites you to unwind, complete with a fireplace, an 85-inch TV, and a fully equipped kitchen ideal for gathering.

During the summer, take full advantage of the deck for grilling and dining al fresco with mountain views as your backdrop. With easy access year-round, you'll find room for two cars in the driveway and another two in the garage, making this home as practical as it is beautiful. In winter, this home transforms into the perfect cozy retreat.

The home is praised for being “very clean, spacious, and cozy,” with many saying the photos truly reflect the space. The layout is appreciated especially by multigenerational or mixed groups: the downstairs suite gives extra privacy, while upstairs brings everyone together with the open-concept living, kitchen, and dining area. Outdoor living is also a winner—guests enjoy the deck for grilling, morning coffee, or evening wind-down. Another frequent highlight is the location: close to trails, skiing, Tahoe City, Kings Beach, and just minutes from lake access, making it easy to mix nature and convenience. \*\*\* This home is dog-friendly.

As a small, family-run business, we take pride in offering a personalized, hands-on approach to hospitality. Our homes are carefully selected and located in the quieter, more scenic areas of Lake Tahoe, including the California North Shore, Olympic Valley, Alpine Meadows, the West Shore down to Rubicon Bay, and the Palisades at Tahoe ski area. What makes our company stand out is our dedication to being here for you. As long-time locals (thirty plus years), we are always available to assist with your stay, ensuring a seamless and memorable Tahoe experience from booking to check-out. Whether you're here for adventure, relaxation, or a bit of both, we're committed to making your time in Tahoe truly special. REQUIRED COUNTY STR PERMIT INFORMATION: STR 23-7756 | TOT #83141 | Max Occupancy is 6 | 4 Parking Spaces. Parking on the street is strictly prohibited. All vehicles must be parked in the driveway and/or garage at all times. Guest must agree to read and comply with Placer County's Good Neighbor Policies. County Rules As part of the Short-Term Rental Permit for this home, the county asks that we share the important rules and regulations with you. We appreciate your cooperation in following the guidelines listed below, also included in your signed Vacation Rental Agreement. Maximum Occupancy: There shall be no gatherings, events, weddings or other group functions on the Premises with more people than the number of persons stated on the Agreement. Parking: Parking on the street is prohibited at all times. All cars, boats, and trailers must be parked in the garage and/or driveway. Quiet Hours: Quiet hours are 9pm-8am, seven days a week. Per the County: No sound may be audible from the property line during quiet hours. Amplified sound (such as speakers) shall not be used outside or be audible from the parcel line of any short-term rental at any time. Lights Out: All exterior lights must be turned off that are not needed for safety or other outdoor use to the extent that such other outdoor use is not an unreasonable nuisance to neighbors at night. Red Flag Warnings: Due to high risk of wildfire in our area, bonfires, charcoal barbecues, and wood-burning fire pits are always prohibited. On designated Red Flag Warning Days—when fire danger is especially severe due to dry conditions and high winds—all outdoor fires are prohibited, including gas grills and gas fire pits. These restrictions come directly from the North Tahoe Fire Protection District and must be followed for everyone's safety. It is each guest's responsibility to stay informed about Red Flag Warnings. They are announced on local news, radio, and social media, and you'll also see signs posted at fire stations throughout the area. Winter Driving: Many highways, access roads, and driveways in the Tahoe area can become icy during the winter. For your safety, it's essential that between November 1st and April 30th your vehicle is winter-ready. Make sure brakes, windshield wipers, defroster, heater, and exhaust system are in top condition. Tires should be properly inflated with excellent tread, and you should always carry tire chains—even if you have an AWD/4WD vehicle. Double-check that your chains fit your tires and are in good working order. On many state highways and county roads, four-wheel drive and snow tires are required for safe travel. Please be prepared for winter conditions: dress appropriately, stay in bounds at ski resorts and if you get lost, remain in place. Garbage & Bears: Please do not feed the bears. Black bears are very common in this area and, over time, many have become used to human food and trash. Because they no longer have a natural fear of people, you may see them during your spring, summer, or fall stay. Feeding bears is illegal, and leaving food outside, trash unsecured, or doors and windows unlocked can lead to serious property damage to both homes and vehicles. To help prevent this, all waste must be placed in bear-proof bins or dumpsters and the latches secured. Placer County sorts recycling from the waste for you at our materials recovery facilities. Office Holiday Hours The TTVR office is closed on New Year's Day, July 4th, Thanksgiving, and Christmas. Therefore, we are unable to accommodate check-ins and check-outs on these dates.

We really loved the helpful notebook with local details. The property does get incredibly hot during the day, partially due to no shades on the East side of the house. Carpet is also very much in need of replacing. However, those are really the only “complaints” - everything else was what we expected! ##### Terra M.

All appliances worked as expected. Location is nice, close to grocery stores, pharmacy, rentals (skiing bicycles, etc. ). I have a Ford Explorer which is difficult to get into the garage, though I parked outside with no hassle. ##### Fernando P.

My family really enjoyed our stay at this centrally located property which is close to grocery stores, shopping, restaurants and activities. The property is exactly what the pictures reflect. The home information and instructions received prior to check in are very detailed and extremely helpful. The home was stocked with basic necessities so we didn’t need to stress going to the grocery store on our arrival day during a winter storm. This made our stay even better. The property was very clean and had plenty of dishes, cooking utensils and pots and pans. The beds were so comfortable and the water pressure was great in the showers. And the rooms, besides the dining room, had blinds/shades so you weren’t awaken by sunlight too early. Being on vacation, this matters and this is rare in Tahoe, from my experience. We were welcomed with a personalized card and treats and a Tahoe grocery bag along with a treat for our furry family member. The home was stocked with great board games and other family games, Kleenex, warm blankets and the little things which makes a difference. We loved that it was pet friendly but also very clean. We didn’t even notice any signs of any pets prior to our stay. I would definitely recommend this property to anyone and would return back again. ##### Monique M.

Our group included my older parents, husband and two daughters (ages 3 and 5) as well as our dog. The room setup is nice for multiple generations since my parents were able to escape to their own space downstairs when they needed a little break from the commotion. The pictures are very accurate, and the positives were the very comfortable bed with nice pillows and sheets as well as a fully stocked kitchen with all of the needed kitchenware for having family meals. Everything was very clean and seemed recently remodeled. The two TVs are both smart TVs so we could use our streaming accounts easily. We did lose power briefly at one point during our stay (the entire neighborhood did) and I was pleased to find a very equipped emergency box with candles, flashlights, etc. Luckily it only lasted for 30 mins :) Overall this is a very solid choice for a smaller group with a pup in tow. ##### Jessica D.
