Location: Twin Bridges, Sierra at Tahoe, South Shore CA, Lake Tahoe California, California, USA (Hwy 50 - Next to Sierra at Tahoe;12 mi. to South Lake Tahoe)
Accommodations: Mountain Home, 3 Bedrooms, 2 Baths (Sleeps 8)
We invite you to share the wonder of the high sierra's of California in the comfort of our modern mountain home located in the small community of 50 homes tucked into the woods along the headwaters of the American River. The soaring windows in the great room and the expansive deck showcase the beauty of the alpine environment - rugged mountains and tall trees surround this peaceful retreat.
The home, which is at 6700 feet elevation, is conveniently located off Highway 50 close to the entrance to Sierra at Tahoe Snowsport Resort in Phillips, CA. South Lake Tahoe is a short 12 miles east and we're about 85 miles from Sacramento.
Our location, close to Lake Tahoe, offers a special environment away from the crowds with lots of open space to explore. The alpine setting located high in the Sierra Nevada mountains places our guests in a unique setting: enjoy the freedom of walking through wildflower meadows, setting out along the river to fish, heading out to the Pony Express Trail to hike down to Strawberry, venturing over to Echo Lake to take the boat taxi up to the second lake for a day hike into Desolation Valley, reading that book you haven't picked up because you've been too busy or just taking a nap on the deck. Plus, you'll only be minutes away from South Lake Tahoe so you can easily enjoy all Tahoe has to offer: spend the day at the beach, rent kayaks to explore the clear waters, take a sunset cruise on a sailboat, visit Emerald Bay, go sailing or fishing, play golf, ride ATV's or stop by the casinos.
Whatever your pleasure - hiking, biking, fishing, boating, ATV riding, rock climbing, golfing - you'll have it all....Desolation Valley, Echo Lake, Lake Tahoe, Pacific Rim Trail, high alpine lakes and streams.
Winter, Spring, Summer and Fall - there's plenty of opportunities for recreation, relaxation and rejuvenation.
Just pack up your personal items and food.....our home is ready for your visit.
If arriving by air, we are approximately 95 miles from the Sacramento airport. Flights are also available into Reno and San Francisco.
