Location: Tahoe Vista, Lake Tahoe North Shore CA, Lake Tahoe California, California, USA (Fabulous private house backs to open space Northstar 10 mins)
Accommodations: House, 4 Bedrooms + Convertible bed(s), 3 Baths (Sleeps 1-10)
Great summer space for family time together. Get away from it all!
This is just about the nicest and most relaxing rental in all of the North Shore. Quiet, charming and spacious custom home built in Old Tahoe style. We are always upgrading this property and just bought the lot next door to ensure that the fantastic peaceful views and feeling of the back deck is permanently protected. Wonderful hiking/cross country ski trails from back of the house to the bike path to North Tahoe Regional Park which has 5 lake view tennis courts, a large children's play ground, running and hiking trails, basketball, handball and sledding/cross country skiing in the winter.
Great Kingswood location between Northstar Ski resort and the Lake! Easy and short jaunt to the lake and the fun restaurants in Kings Beach, Tahoe Vista, Crystal Bay and Tahoe City. Truckee is less than 20 minutes away and has many excellent restaurants, great shopping and some interesting music venues! Lots of music at the Lake in the summer, year round at the Crystal Bay Club, 5 minutes away and in Truckee at Moody's Bistro on weekends, 18 minutes away. All season Ping Pong table provided for guests enjoyment. DVD, reading and CD library.
Dramatic river rock fireplace in great room. Master suite has fireplace, pine four poster bed and spacious bath/Jacuzzi Very private property backing to green belts and National Forest. High quality throughout. Tastefully decorated, lovely outdoor space and gourmet kitchen. Full sound system upstairs, whole house secure wireless internet.
We love the house in both summer and winter. Originally thought it would be more popular in the winter but have found that guests enjoy both seasons as well as the more quiet times with fall as a special treat.
This home has it all and is perfect for a family reunion, special time with friends and family. The kitchen/family room area is a natural gathering place for meals, to watch a movie, play games, listen to music and relax by the large fireplace. Many nooks and crannies throughout the property where you can curl up with a book (lots of books as well) In the summer enjoy the lawn on the side of the house where you can set up your chairs for afternoon cocktails or go to watch the kids play. Lot is mostly level with just enough of a grade for sledding. The double lot and National forest surrounding the house gives the property privacy and a real sense of being in the mountains and at the edge of it all.
