Location: Kirkwood, Gold Country & High Sierra, California, USA
Accommodations: House, 4 Bedrooms + Convertible bed(s), 4 Baths (Sleeps 13)
Luxury mountain home. Enjoy floor to ceiling views from walls of windows looking out to dramatic, sunny, meadow and mountain vistas from every room. Beautiful, comfortable, clean living. A unique feature is the six level contemporary design (with original Gregory Hawthorne art), providing privacy and separate spaces for multi-family get-togethers.
Your group will enjoy cooking in a gourmet kitchen, equipped with brand new, top quality appliances. (Catering also available.) Lower level media/recreation room includes a big screen TV/DVD. The hot tub (with stereo) is sunken in the deck overlooking the meadow. Relax and star gaze after an active day on the slopes in the hot tub, which is just two steps out the back door!
Skiing... Some of the best skiing in North America. Kirkwood Mountain is renowned for getting the best snow in the Sierras due to its higher elevation. Not to mention the lack of lift lines. Base elevation of the house is 7300 feet, and the mountain goes up to 9500-10,000. For Cross Country buffs, step off back deck to FREE, groomed 5 K cross country ski trail. Or, across the road, there is 50K of groomed trails for a fee.
Sledding is plentiful--just minutes away, as various spots around the meadow. For those who want an more exotic sled ride--there are dog sled trips departing daily on the meadow.
Free Shuttle on demand to slopes—or walk short distance home.
Kids, young adults and adults will all enjoy this great family home and the excellent skiing at a higher elevation. Kirkwood is the best!
