About this property
All-Season Retreat -- Unobstructed Panoramic Vistas; quiet, 4BR-3 1/2 BA,
We delightfully rent to extended families -- but not for events or "partying." Enjoy significantly reduced pricing when your party is small (4 or fewer people).
Alta Vista is Ideal for winter and summer vacationing. 7300 feet elevation, stunning top-down panoramic vistas.
Views are optimized from every room and large wrap-around decks with glass railings.
4 bedrooms (two of them master bedrooms), 3 full bathrooms and 1 guest bath; approx. 2100-square-foot living area. You simply feel "at the top of the world!"
Nearby attractions in winter include two famous cross-country skiing resorts (Tahoe/Donner - 2 miles from Alta Vista, and Royal Gorge -15 miles), a nice family ("Tahoe/Donner") downhill ski area within 2 miles (Ski-in possible), and famous Tahoe-Area ski resorts nearby (Palisades-Alpine Meadows, Sugar Bowl, North Star, and others).
Attractions in summer include Tahoe/Donner resort recreational facilities (golf, tennis, two pools, hiking trails, boating on Donner Lake and Lake Tahoe, rafting, kayaking, rock climbing, swimming in the lakes, mountain biking on endless trails and various degrees of difficulty, major trail head nearby, etc).

About the host
Hosted by Jan Michael Heinemann
We had been looking for a place in the mountains that would work well both for summer and winter vacations. Views and privacy were on the wish list. At the end of a showing tour, our agent remarked something like ' ... and there is one more place that came on the market just today, I haven't seen it myself.' Well, already when we drove into the driveway, we both knew instantly that this was the one! The views were out of this world -- and our minds immediately started spinning how one could remodel the house to maximize the views from each room! When we stood in the living room, we were literally taken away by the views. We had our offer in within the hour ...
Why they chose this property
We then embarked on a fairly extensive remodeling activity, converting conventional railings to tempered glass railings that would not break up those stunning views; adding another wrap-around deck on the garage level; enlarging the small windows of the two main floor bedrooms to expansive sliding glass doors, leading to the new deck and opening up to the same stunning views from each bed; and converting the dead space underneath to another master bedroom suite, with its own view deck.
What makes this property unique
Attractive low pricing for small groupings; private setting; no power lines intersecting the views; dry sauna with view window; level street access to three garages; free Internet and phone (incl. free LD and international LD).
