Map & Owner's Profile
Miller's Carnelian Bay,10-15 Min to N'Star & Squaw,Hot Tub,Pet
Year Purchased: 2003
Why the Owner Chose Agate Bay
The Agate Bay neighborhood in Carnelian Bay is a peaceful, quiet area, and our lot is a huge flat 1/3 acre. The extra space between the homes gives our house a lot of privacy,made even more private by our beautiful fully fenced back yard.
The Unique Benefits at this House
The Lake and the beach are only a few blocks away, and Patton Beach is pet-friendly too. Gar Woods Restaurant is a short walk, and we always enjoy the lakeview deck and their signature "wet woody" drinks in the summer, along with the Coconut Shrimp appetizers.
In the winter, Gar Woods has live music on the weekends.
For the Winter Ski season, Agate Bay is right between Squaw Valley and Northstar, so it's a quick trip up to the slopes.
Our Miller's at Carnelian Bay home is a big 4 bedroom home with 2 living areas, so it is a perfect place for a big family to enjoy without being on top of eachother all week. The back yard is huge, and we have recently added over $35,000 in upgrades to the patio area and back landscaping.
We have bikes to use, a volleyball/badminton net, basketball hoop on the driveway, and beach gear at the house.
Patton beach is the local neighborhood beach. It is DOG-FRIENDLY, too!
Gar Woods Restaurant. Home of the "Wet Woody" blended drinks. Enjoy Coconut Shrimp on the Lakeside deck
Owner's Map of Agate Bay
My husband and I live in san Jose, and have been renting our vacation rental homes in Tahoe since 2000. We often have our guests tell us that staying in one of our homes is more like enjoying a friend's Tahoe Cabin than a rental house. I make it our policy to have a beautifully clean, nicely decorated Tahoe Style home for your mountain vacation, winter or summer.

This was the first time our family rented a vaction home and it was a wonderful experience. The home is well kept and homey. We spent Thanksgiving week here and really had a relaxing, enjoyable time. The location is ideal. Its a less then 20 minute drive to Northstar and Squaw valley, grocery stores were a short drive down the road and we were able to attend mass at the Catholic church in nearby Tahoe City. Had an amzaing stay. Owner was prompt and pleasant to deal with.

We had a boisterous crowd for dinners, plenty of teens, but the separation of den from kitchen-dining-living gave us a sense of peace. It was especially quiet when the boys stayed in the great big hot-tub!! There was plenty of room to spread out on the very comfy sofas and chairs, and the lighting was excellent. Very clean, Beds were comfy, plenty of closet space too. The kitchen had plenty of large cooking and serving equipment., and enough of everything. Loved that we could park in the garage. Less than 15 mins to Northstar, and we had a fabulous time. Many thanks, you made it so easy. Robin

Hello Joyce - Thank you for the email and update on the deposit. We had a GREAT time at the house. It was the perfect spot for everyone, especially the dogs who were endlessly entertained by the chipmunks in the yard. Thankfully, there were no fatalities. I'm still adjusting to being back at work and will happily post on your guestbook. I was heartbroken to leave the lake and am hoping to make this trip a family tradition. We will definitely keep you in mind for our next tahoe trip whether it's snowboarding or wakeboarding. Thanks again. Clare

My husband, son, his friend, and I had a terrific weekend at the cabin. We took quite a few hot tubs, went skiing and explored the lake. The house was wonderful - spacious, convenient, and well appointed.

What a great house! Our group of 7 adults loved the spacious kitchen and common areas -- there was more than enough room for everyone. The house is close to many ski resorts and the after ski soak in the hot tub was fantastic. The bedrooms were great too. We will definitely be coming back!

I was a great retreat to find a much needed relaxation over the weekend. We, two couples, with two toddlers love the house, that offers something for everybody, the kids loved the bunk beds, and parents the Jacuzzi and Fire place. Very conveniently located, close to the Lake, Save Way and North Star. Definitely try to come back!

We had a great time as always during our stay at the Miller's Carnelian Bay house. The house has everything we need, is close to skiing, and is very kid and dog friendly. We always come back every year because the house is so convenient and comfortable.
