About this property
Squaw Valley Truckee River Estate
Just 2 miles from Squaw Valley Ski Resort. Over the bridge and down the river from Squaw Valley is a beautiful example of an 'old style' Truckee River home, located at river's edge. Go to sleep to the sound of the river and awaken to start your hike, bike or run from right outside your door. From the kitchen and dinning rooms, one gazes up the river canyon, scouting river activity. The deck and hot tub are perched above the river. Imagine soaking under the stars while listening to the sounds of the raging water? The living room is large, perfect for a gathering around a wood stove. There are two cozy master suites downstairs one with a king size bed, the other with a queen, three charming bedrooms upstairs with flexible bedding arrangements and three and a half bathrooms. The neighborhood is private and quiet. Perfect for long walks in the woods. 'The River House' is a unique mountain experience! The generous farmhouse kitchen has a cozy breakfast nook, skylights, wood floors and an adjoining formal dining room overlooking the river, perfect for casual family style dinners or elegant affairs. There's a private washer/dryer accessible through a covered walkway. Parking for 5 cars, including the attached carport. Oh, and the fly fishing is outstanding...but don't tell anyone :)

Amazing place. We had fun and enjoyed our stay at this property. It’s so close to Palisades but yet so quiet and secluded. Has everything you need. Thanks!!
Great location for a family vacation. The house had a cool, old school cabin vibe. The river views, space to spread out, hot tub, wood burning stove stand out. Great proximity to Palisades ski area, Truckee and Tahoe City. Kitchen was spacious and well equipped. I would definitely rent again.
Our second stay at this property. Great house for our group of 9 adults skiing at Palisades. Has well stocked kitchen for cooking group dinners and easy drive to mountain.
We had a wonderful stay at this house! It’s incredibly spacious and perfect for relaxing. The kitchen is fully stocked, which is ideal if you enjoy cooking. One of the highlights was falling asleep to the peaceful sounds of the river—so calming.The hot tub was very clean, roomy, and a great way to unwind after a day out. The location is also super convenient, with easy access to Palisades Ski Area and the nearby lake Tahoe and quick trip to Reno airport.We highly recommend this place and would absolutely love to come back, especially in the summer!
This was exactly the kind of Tahoe cabin we had hoped it would be: Charming, historic, light-filled, right on the river (with a deckside hot tub) and incredibly close to Palisades skiing and the Tahoe River Trail. It was the perfect size for our group of 10 (4 adults and 6 teenagers); we had plenty of room to read, play games, make big communal meals and eat them together, and star gaze on the deck. The whole crew agreed we should come back again.
This beautiful home was a perfect getaway for our family. The kitchen is very well stocked. The dining room sat all of us, the living room was so cozy and all of the beds were very comfortable. It is a beautiful home and everyone loved having their own room and it was a beautiful view out the window of the river. Bonus that it was snowing almost the whole time! Jim is very friendly and helpful and we look forward to visiting again soon!
The owner was responsive and the house was great! You can't beat the rental price given the amazing location next to the river and close to Palisades Olympic village.
The property is as close to the mountain as you would want with a beautiful view of the river and amazing home. The amenities are great and the rooms/beds are perfect for large groups. If you have the chance to stay here you should!
The property was perfect for our family’s annual ski trip. It has a big, well-stocked kitchen, comfortable bedrooms and a great spa overlooking the river. The VRBO photos are accurate. Don’t miss this jewel of a mountain cabin.
Very cozy house with a wonderful location near Palisades Tahoe. Allowed our group to ski very easily without a long drive in the morning. Loved the kitchen and dining room that wrapped around the large family room — all these spaces made for great environments to hang out and make memories!
Perfect house for party of 10 adults. Large living space, excellent kitchen layout and well sticked with pots pans dishes and utensils.Sutuated in scenic river
