Location: Tahoe Donner, North Shore CA, Lake Tahoe California, California, USA (In Truckee - 45 minutes from Reno, 2 hours from Sacramento.)
Accommodations: House, 2 Bedrooms + Loft, 2 Baths (Sleeps 6-9)
Behind the street-side flat driveway and garage you'll enter the bright A-frame house from the western front deck (there is another deck off the back of the house which gets great morning light). The environmentally friendly pellet stove and central gas heat will warm you in the cold months, while the house stays cool naturally all summer long.
The loft covers over half the floor plan, allowing for good air flow and a feeling of spaciousness downstairs where the living room, dining room and kitchen are open to each other. For those who like to stay up late, or wake early, you can expand upstairs in the 2 twins and futon. The entrance-level bedrooms face south and comfortably accommodate 2 people in each, the queen master bedroom on the west, and 2 twins on the east.
You’ll feel connected to your friends and family in the warm and social atmosphere of the house’s layout. Whether you’re cooking, relaxing on the couch, watching a movie (many videos are available at the house), reading (many books are available to peruse during your stay), eating, or stretching after a long day out on the mountain, you’ll have the space to do it. If quiet privacy is what you’re after, simply hide away.
The house is easy to get to even in bad weather - it is on Northwoods BLVD, the main Tahoe Donner road, which gets plowed well, and since it is at the far end of the road’s loop, there is little traffic. Also, the driveway and front deck are plowed for you on heavy snow days, so you can get in and out of the property without hassle.
Well-stocked but not excessive, you’ll find what you need to be comfortable, relax, and enjoy your vacation no matter what the season. We are looking forward to working with you.
Ama Greenrose, Mgr.
