About the host

Hosted by Charles Russo

Host profile image
Heather and I are from the Northern California and Nevada area. We loved the outdoors since we lived near Lake Tahoe. The mountains, the water, and the peacefulness that it has brought us. This was our vision for the Red Door Cottage: a piece of mind for us both and a hope for others to find respite.

Why they chose this property

We wanted to be near water again and have a place to "just get away" from it all.
