The Neighborhood:
Conveniently situated between the town of Kings Beach and Northstar Ski Resort, this home places you in the perfect location for year-round fun. In the winter months, you’re less than 10 minutes away from the slopes at Northstar Resort, offering fantastic ski terrain for all ability levels. Northstar is also a family-friendly destination with an ice skating rink and a movie theater to keep everyone entertained. In the summer, Northstar transforms into a hiker's paradise, featuring numerous trails for all skill levels and a world-class mountain biking facility. For even more hiking options, you’re just a 5-minute drive from the Brockway Summit trailhead, part of the famous Tahoe Rim Trail, which provides stunning views of Lake Tahoe. When you're in the mood to unwind, a quick 6-minute drive will take you to Kings Beach, where you can relax on white sand beaches, rent a variety of watercraft, or explore local supermarkets, boutique shops, spas, and an array of restaurants. Be sure to check the Kings Beach community calendar for free summer outdoor concerts and the farmer’s market schedule during your stay. If you’re looking for more entertainment, you’re just 10 minutes from the Nevada state line, where you can find concert venues and several casinos.
Getting Around:
Those wanting to utilize Tahoe's FREE transportation bus services (TART) will find the nearest bus stop just under 2 miles from the home at Hwy 28 at The Sands. Alternatively, you can take a short drive down to Kings Beach and use the FREE park-and-ride service to reach popular destinations like Olympic Valley and Northstar California Resort. With both Hwy 28 and Hwy 267 just minutes away, you can easily make day trips to the stunning surrounding areas around Tahoe City. Northstar California Resort is just a 9-minute drive away via Hwy 267. Continue on this highway to reach the historic mountain town of Truckee, or stop for a hike at Brockway Summit, one of the trailheads for the famous Tahoe Rim Trail, offering breathtaking views of Lake Tahoe. You can also take a day trip into Nevada, as the state line is just a 5-minute drive away, and the town of Reno is a 45-minute drive from the home. Head south on Hwy 28 to arrive in Tahoe City in 24 minutes, or reach the popular Olympic Valley within 30 minutes to enjoy the slopes at Palisades Tahoe ski resort. Additionally, this area is serviced by Uber, Lyft, and several local taxi companies, making transportation convenient throughout your stay.
Other Things to Note:
Please note that like most homes in the area, this home does not have A/C.
Charcoal grills are strictly forbidden in this county and will result in a $1,500 citation if used.
4-wheel drive or 2-wheel drive tires with snow chains may be necessary for safe travel to this property, even if it hasn’t snowed in a few days.
BBQ is only available during fall/summer months due to Tahoe fire regulations. All BBQs must be on a non-flammable surface and not have anything overhanging it. The BBQ will be on an installed metal surface on the rear deck during months where there is no snow accumulation.
There is an electric bear fence to deter bears from entering the property. Instructions located in the house manual.
Please note that the grill is only available in the summer months.
No garage access sorry.
