Ask a questionAbout Greg
My wife and I spent our honeymoon in Tahoe in 1974 and we started renting homes in summer and winter. We soon realized it was time for us to purchase our own vacation home as our "getaway from L.A." . In 1978 we purchased an A-frame cabin and exchanged it for our condo in Bavarian Village in 1993. We have put our 'heart and soul' into making the "Ripke Retreat" just like home. Our latest addition is a new master bedroom LCD HD 26" LG TV and new cellular blinds completing our picture window wall. We love "extra touches" like our 'cool' Limelite nite lights, car key hooks, and cable TV channel listing frames. We even installed an emergency 'power failure' light above the hallway entrance. You'll appreciate our hotel security safe in our MB for securing your valuables. Clothing valet stands in each bedroom are are great for organizing your wardrobe. Relax by the warm (turns on with the flip of a switch) gas fireplace in our spacious living room. We are in our condo at least three times per year adding and upgrading amenities (like the giant 60" Samsung TV above our fireplace) assuring you enjoy your stay as much as we do. Please let us know if you have any suggestions to make the Ripke Retreat even more "guest-friendly".
Greg purchased this Condo in 1993
Why Greg chose South Lake Tahoe
We wanted to be close to all area attractions and not feel like we were "trapped" in a casino hotel room. The Ripke Retreat in Bavarian Village is three blocks from highway 50 and Ski Run Blvd. and the brand new "Whole Foods Marketplace" . Minutes and walking distance to the the Ski Run Marina, beaches, and Heavenly skiing! Bavarian Village is in the middle of all SLT venues which makes our RETREAT perfect for in-season biking. The South Lake Tahoe bike path runs by the BV entrance. We enjoy riding our bikes to breakfast to our favorite local restaurants like "Ernie's" and the "Bear Cafe". We boast a rental agency (Pinnacle) that carefully looks after our condo. You'll love our secluded location in the middle of a grove of pine trees. Enjoy the stunning skyward view while you are at the pool or lounging in the year-round complex hot tub. Summer dinners make the food taste better on our balcony table. Take in pine-scented fresh air while listening to the Blue Jays sing. In winter catch the Heavenly Ski Water Shuttle at the Ski Run Marina. The Ripke Retreat is located 50 minutes (depending on road conditions) from fifteen major ski areas like Sierra At Tahoe, Squaw Valley, Kirkwood, Northstar, and Alpine Meadows.
What makes this Condo unique
Our master bedroom picture window view of Heavenly is stunning! We are only one of only three BV buildings boasting this view! We take pride in all our room remodels, especially the kitchen and dining area. Granite countertops extending to the dining room window. Experience true "Tahoe ambiance" with golden pine cabinets trimmed in forest green. We placed an extra table on our balcony so you can enjoy some of your meals outside during warm summer evenings. When the weather turns cold flick the wall switch to light our gas-log fireplace. Then sit back and relax and enjoy DVD movies on our new living room 60" Samsung HD TV. For longer stays the BV community laundry is perfect. Unique to Bavarian Village is the luxurious, spacious heated pool (in season) and new 8-person, year round hot tub. Enjoy the hot tub while looking up at tall pines surrounding you. You cannot do this at stateline when you're stuck in a stuffy hotel room. Don't forget to bring the briquettes in summer to enjoy barbecues right in front of our condo on with adjacent picnic table.
