About this property
1 Block to the beach, Sleeps 10, hot tub, and new kitchen finished in '22
Dollar Point Family Retreat is in a fabulous location, only 500' from the beach as the crow flies, on a very quiet street with filtered lake views and a greenbelt on the north side of the house. (VRBO is working on correcting the erroneous statement that appears during a search that the house is an 11-minute drive to the beach.) This home is perfect for the family getaway with four bedrooms, two baths, and an outdoor hot tub. Within a 5 - 20 minute drive from this home, you will find fabulous restaurants, shopping, world-class ski areas such as Palisades and Alpine Meadows, and a championship golf course at The Resort at Squaw Creek. (Please see the link at the bottom for more photos.) Though most homes in the Tahoe area do not have air conditioning because it is usually not needed, we have a unit in the living room for those all-too-warm days.
>This home is not suitable for ten adults. Suits 1-8 adults and up to six children well.
>The Dollar Point facilities (pool, beach, and tennis courts) are available to short-term renters if they are friends or family of the owners.
The living room has a wood-burning gas fireplace, designer furnishings, and a 46-inch Sony LCD with Apple TV and a PlayStation 3/Blue Blu-ray DVD player. The living room opens onto a large furnished deck, which has been set up for outdoor dining and grilling on the 2025 gas Weber BBQ.
The kitchen is very well equipped for those who enjoy cooking, complete with an espresso machine and All-Clad cookware. There is also a breakfast bar that seats three and is a great place to keep the cook company and enjoy a glass of wine. The attached dining room seats up to 10 and is the perfect place to relax with family and friends.
Just minutes from the home, there is outstanding bicycling on miles of paved bike trails that are separated from the roads. These trails traverse the West Shore to Rubicon Bay, and to Palisades and Alpine Meadows. There are also miles of mountain biking trails close by.
The ski areas of Palisades and Alpine Meadows are 12-15 minutes away. Northstar is about 20 minutes away.
Bedroom configuration:
Bedroom #1: Master bedroom with a king-sized bed
Bedroom #2: The 'Bunk Room' with four twin-sized beds- PERFECT FOR CHILDREN, NOT SO GREAT FOR ADULTS.
Bedroom #3: Queen-sized bed
Bedroom #4: Two twin-sized beds.
N.B. The Dollar Point beach, pool, and tennis courts are not available to short-term renters, but are available to friends and family. Skylandia Beach is about a 12-minute walk or a 5-minute drive from the house, though, and is open to the public without fees.
VRBO populates the cancellation policy. We would like to add that if a cancellation occurs within the two-week window before arrival, we will refund 100% if we can rent the house at the same rate or higher for the cancelled dates.

About the area
Tahoe City
Located in Dollar Point, a neighbourhood in Tahoe City, this holiday home is in the mountains and on a lake. Palisades Tahoe and Northstar California Resort are worth checking out if an activity is on the agenda, while those wishing to experience the area's natural beauty can explore Lake Tahoe-Nevada State Park and Sand Harbor. North Shore Parasail and Kings Beach Miniature Golf are also worth visiting. Make sure you get close to the area's animals with activities such as game walks and birdwatching.

Frequently asked questions
About the host
Hosted by Debbie Kelley

We are Larry and Debbie (but that's not Larry in the photo!) We've owned this home for 25 years and still love it and the neighborhood. We joined VRBO in June 2010. We have been "home exchangers" since 2005, and have donated the house to many charity auctions. We are striving to make it the house you want to come back to over and over again.
Why they chose this property
We love this property because of the location (tranquil street, away from the highway yet only a block from the beach). Having a greenbelt on one side of the property is a rare feature too. We also enjoy the floor plan with the livingroom slightly separated from the kitchen and dining-room giving a little separation from those watching movies or playing games from those cooking and chatting.
