Treat yourself, and enjoy your vacation in our cozy river retreat!
This home and its location are magical, plain and simple. Experience nature at its finest, and take pleasure in the endless recreational outdoor opportunities. Peace and tranquility is what you will find at River Retreat: Winter, Spring, Summer, or Fall.
The home rests on one of THE most prime real estate locations on the entire Truckee River. Located just 300 yards from River Ranch, the house is the last house you pass on your right while slowly rafting down the river in summer. Remotely set hundreds of feet from Hwy 89, the location is one of the most coveted spots on the entire river.
The home boasts a very large deck on the river that over looks the rapids in spring and summer, yet is as quiet and peaceful as the mountain air that fills your soul in fall and winter. You could not be in a better spot to reach Alpine or Squaw while enjoying compete privacy.
The home is modest in size and a bit rustic, yet perfect for up to 7 people. And the location can not be beat for winter or summer fun. Located just 5 miles from Lake Tahoe, a short car ride from Alpine Meadows Ski Resort, and just a few miles from Squaw Valley, this location is prime real estate with a capital “P”.
With 2 bedrooms and 1 bathroom along with a sofa-bed, this home fits the words “warm and cozy” to a “T”. And whether you’re enjoying the home's quiet location (private driveway with only 2 other homes), 42" TV with dish network and DVD, this is the place where family fun takes place and memories are made!
Located perfectly in one of Tahoe's premier year-round recreational areas, Tahoe City/Truckee River amenities are out of this world! Tahoe City offers fun for the entire family! Our home is lucky enough to be nestled just a few short miles down river from Tahoe City’s incredible dinning and majestic beauty.
And with all that Lake Tahoe has to offer at your fingertips, this will be one vacation you won’t forget. (Amenities below are not included in the rental fee)
