Alpine Condo on the River

Located just five minutes from Alpine Meadows resort and ten minutes from Olympic Valley, guests can enjoy out the door access to four seasons of recreation (there is even a seasonal, communal pool and tennis court nearby).

Cozy up with friends for a fun weekend away or pack up the kids for a simple weekend away by the river! Situated near the Truckee River, with miles of bike paths and hiking trails just steps from your front door, you'll also be delighted to find the Alpine Meadows Equestrian Center at your fingertips. Step out onto the balcony with river views in the morning, hop over to The River Ranch, and Crest Cafe for a hot coffee to start your day or brunch on the deck. Since the Truckee River Condo is located on the valley floor you can easily pedal into Tahoe City, even down the West Shore for miles of exploring!

Though a traditional one bedroom with a queen bed, there is also space available for two more on the living room sofa sleeper. The dining room seats four with bar seating at the kitchen for two. Equipped with a flat-screen TV, HDTV, and high-speed Free WiFi, the condominium also boasts a covered entry for when it dumps snow, a full kitchen, and a fireplace. Duralogs only should be used in the fireplace and you will want to pick some of these up on your way into town.

Association Rule Disallowing EV Recharging from Phase I Outlets
The increase in Electric Vehicle (EV) sales and their increased presence in the Tahoe area
has raised concerns about safe recharging procedures. River Run Phase I was built prior to
1982. Research into the risks associated with residential charging in older, multi-family
structures reinforces the concerns as follows:
Charging an electric vehicle from a standard residential outlet (Level 1 charging,
typically 120 V) is generally safe when the electrical system is modern and properly
configured. However, older multifamily buildings—especially those built in the 1980s or
earlier—can present several technical and safety risks. These risks mostly stem from
the fact that EV charging is a continuously high electrical load, and many residential
circuits were not designed for that duty cycle.
The main categories of risk are:
1. Continuous-load stress on circuits and outlets
EV charging draws power for many hours continuously, unlike most household
appliances. A Level-1 charger typically draws 12–16 amps for 8–20 hours.
Electrical codes treat loads that run for more than three hours as continuous loads, which
require circuits sized accordingly.
If the outlet or wiring was not intended for this outlets can overheat or melt wiring
insulation can degrade, breakers may trip repeatedly and in extreme cases electrical fires
can occur. Even newer houses can have problems if the outlet is shared with lights or
other outlets.
2. Aging wiring and connection degradation
Buildings from the 1980s are now 35–45 years old, and several electrical components may
have deteriorated. Typical problems include loose or corroded terminals, aging
receptacles with worn contacts or degraded insulation or conduit. These conditions
increase electrical resistance, which creates localized heating under sustained load.
3. Overloaded electrical panels and service capacity
Many older buildings were designed with 60–100 A service panels, which may already be
near capacity from modern appliances. Adding EV charging can push the system past its
load calculation limits and cause breaker trips or overheating. In multifamily buildings
this risk is amplified because multiple residents may charge vehicles simultaneously.
For these technical reasons and due to the liability associated with the risks, the Board has
determined that charging EVs from Phase I electrical outlet is prohibited. Violators,
including renters or visitors, will incur a $500 fine to the Unit’s owner. Repeated violations
will result in escalating fines as determined by the Board. All owners using Short Term
Rental (STR) platforms are required to add notice of the restriction to their listings.
