Great for skiers: This property is just 2 miles from Homewood Ski Resort and 10 miles from the Alpine Meadows’ Sherwood Express chair lift on the West Shore. Olympic Valley, home of the 1960 winter Olympics, is just 15 miles away.
Great for hikers: A serene forest is just a few steps down the road with incredible hikes and views. If you prefer to hike to the lake, Chamber’s Landing public beach is just one mile away.
Great for families: There is lots of room for the kiddos to play in the yard, inside, or on the back deck. The main floors are hardwood, and the bedrooms have carpet. The cabin is on a large wooded lot with sunny exposure. Open the windows for some of that crisp, fresh Tahoe air.
Each bedroom features something special: The large downstairs California King bedroom has its own private deck, walk-in closet, washer/dryer, office area with interesting reads, and an updated en suite bathroom. Crate and Barrel linens and a down comforter and pillows make for that rest and recovery you’re looking for. The comfortable mattress is new and from Avocado Green Mattress, made with natural and organic materials that are sure to leave you feeling well rested.
The upper-level bedroom offers another comfortable California King bed with a down comforter and pillows in addition to a TV opposite the bed for that late-night movie or morning news. Opposite the top-level bedroom is a bunkroom your kids will love, featuring two sets of bunk beds, a TV, and a closet full of kid’s books, games and movies.
The top floor features another large deck, a recently remodeled kitchen with a 6-burner gas stove and oven, and a lovely dining room with eight chairs around an Austrian plank table, or bar stool seating for your friends or family to enjoy. The living area has recently been furnished with a new, cozy plush sofa and chairs, a high-definition flat screen with Cable TV, Wi-fi, a Blu-Ray DVD player, CD player, stereo, and fast-broadband internet.
A wood burning fireplace adds to the ambiance and the sunny deck is complete with a propane BBQ, a table with umbrella and seating for six, and two lounge chairs to bask in the sunlight.
The second level also has a recently remodeled full bathroom with a jetted tub, two sinks, and a separate well-lit vanity area. For winter months, use the downstairs entry with a quartz-tiled mudroom with plenty of room for your ski gear and coats. This home is not suitable for large groups or parties. 1 dog allowed.
