About the host

Hosted by Kathleen (Kitty) Travnikoff or Lloyd Travnikoff

Host profile image
Lloyd is a retired General Contractor. Kitty is a retired primary teacher. We have 3 grown children and 4 grandchildren. We have been hosts for 15 years. We like it when guests have a great time and share that information with us.

Why they chose this property

I'm from Wisconsin and like to see snow a few times a year. We used to visit Tahoe before we built our cabin. Lloyd was working on a Safeway when I found our lots. We liked the area because it offered summer and winter sports that we liked. Tahoe is 2 hours away for us so a quick weekend getaway is possible. We like to go sledding, skiing, snowboarding, hiking, bike riding and gambling. Tahoe fits the bill.

What makes this property unique

I love the peace and quiet. No immediate neighbors. We own our side of the block and the neighbor across from us owns the whole block and his house faces the other street. Our cabin is at the end of our street and backs up to a greenbelt. This gives easy access to hiking and sledding. More hiking & biking trails start at the end of Gray Ave. I love the peace and quiet. No immediate neighbors.
