Rubicon Retreat-Spectacular-on the West Shore of Lake Tahoe

We spent ten days at Rubicon Retreat in September and were very happy with the house. Even though there are lots of houses nearby, it is situated in such a way that you don't notice them. The views of the Lake are spectacular and it is a very short walk to the beautiful white sand beach. I have been coming up to Tahoe since I was a kid and this is by far the nicest place that I have stayed.

Although there were only two of us on this vacation, it would be a great place for a three generation family or a couple of families. Lots of room and a really huge kitchen that can easily absorb "too many cooks".

It's on the West side of the Lake and an easy drive to Tahoe City and Truckee or South Lake Tahoe. Lots of places to hike within a few minutes' drive. Highly recommended. We will definitely be back.

My son and family enjoyed one week at Rubicon Retreat. One week was not long enough.

The home is perfect our two families each had its own floor offering privacy as well as comfort.

The views are lovely what a great way to wake up in the morning looking out at the many shades of Tahoe blue.

The house was built with great style and quality. This is the kind of place that was wonderful to come back to after a day out in nature. Bliss, Emerald Bay, and Sugerpine are just next door making trips out very easy.

We can't wait to return to Rubicon Retreat.

My husband and I visited over the Christmas holiday and we had a wonderful. Rubicon retreat was the perfect secluded place with a perfect view of Lake Tahoe. It was a very short drive to some beautiful hiking trails, even in the winter. If you wish to get away from all the activities on the East side of the lake, then this is the perfect place to stay.

We had an exceptional vacation at the Rubicon Retreat! Three weeks of bliss on the beautiful West Shore "Best Shore: of Lake Tahoe. The home is very well designed & appointed. Views from all three levels of the lake and easy access to the private beach. We can't wait to come back again!

Rubicon Retreat is an amazing home! The pictures online looked nice however when we arrived the home was much larger than it appeared and even nicer than the pictures. It has all ammenities you need for a vacation in Tahoe and everything was top notch! (Brand New/Truly High End) I have been coming to Tahoe since I was a child and usually stayed closer to Tahoe City. I had no idea how beautiful Rubicon Bay was until staying here. The water is crystal clear (Similar that of the Caribbean) and the views from the home were amazing! The beach at the HOA is a short walk from the home and was one of the best beaches on the West Shore. It was very private, uncrowded and great for swimming. We rented a Kayak for a couple days. The waters in the Bay were calm and the views from the water were amazing. As a child I thought Rubicon Bay was too far away from Tahoe City, however since staying there I have changed my mind. It's only 20 minutes from Tahoe City and there are restaurants, local convenience stores and equipment rental shops even closer....within 10 minutes away. In fact, it was much nicer to stay away from all of the hustle and bustle, having a very peaceful, serene home to come back to. I would definitely recommend staying here. And the owners Tom and Sharon were great. They were very helpful in answering questions before and throughout or stay. Provided Rubicon Retreat remains a vacation rental, we intend to come back each summer for a week getaway.
