Awesome! There is no other way to describe this beautiful home in Christmas Valley with its breathtaking mountain views. This home, designed for a king, is on one-point-eight acres with national forest on three sides. Enjoy beautiful views from the living room and front deck. Watch for shooting stars from the very private spa on the back deck.
From the moment that you enter this mountain home you feel as though you have come home. Start winding down the minute that you step through the door. A river-rock fireplace greets you as you walk into the living room. Ten-foot-high picture windows encourage you to sit by the fire, relax, and take in the views. Step up to hardwood hickory floors, gourmet kitchen, log and rock accents, a large pine dining room table that seats eight,custom breakfast bar seats 2 and a mother-in-law room that adds a second full kitchen, games, television and foosball table.
Walk to beautiful meadows and see beaver dams on the Upper Truckee River. Hike along the river shore or fish and bring home native brown trout for dinner. For the more adventurous, hop on your mountain bike and choose from several single track trails such as "Mr. Toad's wild ride, Round Lake trail, Hawley Grade, or The Tahoe Rim Trail." Snowshoe or cross-country ski in the open meadow around the corner. Heavenly, Kirkwood, and Sierra Ski Lodges just minutes away.
Close enough to town but a lifetime away in serenity. This is what you have come to Tahoe for! Come see Tahoe in all its grandeur!

Map & Owner's Profile
Tahoe Wolfs Den - 4 BR W/ Loft & Game Rm - 3 BA - Hot Tub
Year Purchased: 1997
Why the Owner Chose Christmas Valley 1
We chose to buy the Wolfs Den because of its location and view. The home is at the end of Christmas Valley where all of the homes have 1-2 acres and are more spread out. It is on a very quiet street with less than 10 cars passing in a day. The mountain view is spectacular and it is only a couple minute walk to the Upper Truckee River and several trailheads. We wanted to be on the outskirts of town to enjoy the peace and quiet of the mountains and not have to listen to city traffic.
The Unique Benefits at this Single-Family Home w/ Hot Tub
We have set up the home with ski, road and trail maps for our guest to best experience Tahoe. You will enjoy quiet and get the rest that you deserve. There are hiking and biking trails available right out the front door and a beautiful meadow along the river. The home backs up to a mountain so sledding is out the back door.
Big Meadow trailhead, Tahoe Rim trailhead. Hike along the Tahoe Rim Trail or to Round Lake or Lake Dardenelles.
Winter- Rent snowmobiles, snowshoe... Summer- Beautiful drive, fish, atv, bike ride....
Owner's Map of Christmas Valley 1
Teresa and I love Tahoe. It is an amazingly beautiful place with so many activities possible. In the Winter I ski, snowboard and take my snowmobile to Blue Lakes and in the Summer I hike, backpack, fish or take my mountainbike on many of the local trails available right out the front door.....We have owned the Tahoe Wolfs Den since 1997 and enjoy meeting guest from around the world.

Dana and Teresa, I just wanted to say THANK YOU for making our trip wonderful. The home was warm, comfortable, and plenty of room for the 8 of us. I would 100% recommend your home to anyone. We had no problems getting there, getting into the house, or finding anything in the house, except the outdoor stereo but we eventually found it the last day. Everything was great, and I would come back again. Thanks again for all your help. I can tell you both really care about your home and want everyone to be comfortable and happy with their stay. I can not say enough good things about my experience with you and your home. Thanks so much! April
