About this property

Tahoe Mountain Retreat

Retreat to this wonderful lakeview home with breathtaking panoramic views!

Enjoy relaxed living on a bluff above Lake Tahoe. Nestled in a hollow out of the prevailing wind, every room in this home looks out over the lake, with views across Crystal Bay Point and along the beautiful east shore. Be amazed by every mood the lake has to show, from the sun line rising on the Eastern Sierra to spectacular full moon nights which can be enjoyed from the private hot tub on the deck. Each room is tastefully decorated and the beds have high thread count linens, down comforters, and lots of soft pillows.

Our open floor plan has a master suite with queen bed upstairs off the living room/great room. The remaining bedrooms (second master suite with queen bed, and two queen bedrooms) are downstairs off the family room. We have a wonderful wood stove in the family room that heats the whole house and firewood is provided. The attached apartment has 1 queen bed in the bedroom with interior access to the apartment from the main house, as well as from the garage.

With 3500 sq. ft. of total living space there is room for everyone. There's a two car garage and plenty of off street parking. Enjoy High Speed Internet/Wi-Fi and Cable TV through out the home. We are located just one block from the lake, close to ski areas and casinos, Garwoods and 7-Eleven are just down the road.

Another wonderful stay at this beautiful Carnelian Bay home

This is our second stay at this property and it was just as wonderful as our first time. The accommodations were perfect for our extended ski weekend with our family. We had a comfortable stay with an outstanding view of the lake. The owners were quickly responsive to any questions we had and we will likely come back again in the future!

Perfect space, magical view

This is a perfect house for multiple things to be happening at once. Our son’s family was in the apartment with the littles that have their special needs. The teens loved the downstairs and downstairs he adults loved the upstairs. It’s so well appointed with spices and kitchen equipment. We wanted for nothing! Loved our stay. Oh, everyone said their beds were comphy!

The home was very beautiful. It had so much room for family. Enjoyed the evenings sitting on the deck looking at the water or sitting in the hot tub. Waking up and going to bed every day looking at Lake Tahoe was the highlight of our stay.

Great place for vacation!

This was the perfect house for our family vacation. Great gathering space and fantastic patio with breathtaking views of Lake Tahoe. Owner is easy to contact if needed, but all the right information was provided in advance. Would stay here again if the opportunity was available.

The pictures don’t do the view justice

The view of the lake was much wider and better than I expected from the listing. Sleeping setup was perfect for 10 people. There is a 6th queen bed but it isn’t in a private room ( shares a common space ) in “the apartment. Our priority was a large house with a good view and this was better than I could have hoped for. I would go back.

Family gathering for 8 to celebrate our 50th Wedding Anniversary.

The house was perfect for our three small families, ranging in ages from 6 to 70. The view of the lake is spectacular and the location of the house on Carnelian Bay in North Tahoe is great. We have stayed in South and North Tahoe and prefer the latter. If you love wooden boats, be sure to visit Sierra Boat Company.

About the host

Hosted by Dave Jones

Host profile image
We were very lucky to find Tahoe at a young age. We fell in love and were married, raised three kids who now have pursued careers outside of the Tahoe basin. While we have loved this home and lived in this home we have found that it is time to share it with others. You will find our place to be a comfortable, quiet space, perched on a bluff away from the prevailing winds. Be sure to watch the sunline rise on the eastern Sierra opposite us until evening arrives. Our home has hosted many family gatherings so we know that whatever your event is you will be comfortable and cozy, together but not crowded,

Why they chose this property

What makes this property unique

Our house is centrally located with ski areas located to the east and west of us as well as the best beaches only 10 minutes away. We have walking and biking trails that leave right from our house.
