About this property
Sherwood Chalet - Quiet 3 BR in Ward Canyon, Private Hot Tub
Welcome to Sherwood Chalet in Ward Canyon—a hidden gem in a quiet mountainside setting that backs to National Forest lands. This private West Shore vacation rental is an ideal haven for those seeking relaxation and outdoor adventures, including fishing, hiking, and skiing. Enjoy exploring acres of backcountry trails and easy access to the Sherwood chairlift at Alpine Meadows, less than a mile away!
As you step inside this Lake Tahoe vacation home, you'll be greeted by 1,824 square feet of inviting spaces that include 3 bedrooms and 2.5 bathrooms, making it a true mountain escape. The open great room features soaring wood-beamed ceilings and rustic finishes, seamlessly connecting the living, kitchen, and dining areas. The living room invites you to sink into a plush couch by the crackling wood-burning fireplace while enjoying a homemade pizza cooked in it, all while taking in the spectacular alpine scenery through the floor-to-ceiling windows. Work remotely at the convenient desk area or unwind in front of the large flat-screen TV.
You'll love sipping your morning coffee and taking in the fresh mountain air on the sundeck just off the living room, which offers gorgeous views of Twin Peaks. The beautifully remodeled kitchen, featuring stainless steel appliances, granite countertops, and a large island, flows into the spacious dining area where you can enjoy delicious meals before hitting the slopes and embarking on outdoor adventures around Lake Tahoe.
On the lower level, you'll discover the home's three bedrooms: one with a king-sized bed, one with a queen-sized bed, and one with two bunk beds—a delightful space for the little ones. Two full bathrooms on the lower level ensure everyone's comfort and privacy. An additional sleeping space with a futon adds flexibility to accommodation options. Cap off your day of Lake Tahoe adventures in the private hot tub, a blissful spot to unwind and enjoy the views of the sprawling forested backyard.

• Big Mountain Views
• Wood-burning Fireplace in Great Room
• Enclosed Private Hot Tub

ABOUT THE AREA:
Located on the West Shore, halfway between Homewood and Tahoe City, lies a little-known area of the West Shore, the Alpine Peak and Ward Canyon subdivision. Located about 5 miles from the lake in Ward Canyon, homes in this area offer seclusion, and easy access to Sherwood Chairlift on the backside of Palisades Alpine. This area is great for the wilderness enthusiast, mountain adventurer or someone truly looking to just escape from it all.
In the summer, you'll find Sunnyside Resort and Marina and William Kent Shoreline are about a 5-mile drive away. William Kent Beach is situated in a wooded setting and offers picnic tables and grills with views across Lake Tahoe of the eastern shoreline. Next door, Sunnyside Resort is a favorite year-round lakeside dining option. However, guests won't need to venture far to enjoy the outdoors as great trails for hiking and mountain biking may be found just outside your door!
POLICIES & DISCLOSURES:
1. Maximum Day Time & Night Time Occupancy is 8, excluding children under twelve (12) years of age.
2. Parking for 4 vehicles. Street parking is prohibited year-round.
3. This property is in a high snow load area, 4WD is highly recommended.
4. There is no guarantee the Sherwood chairlift will be open early in the season and parking is restricted. Alternate access to Alpine/Palisades is available via the main base area which is a 13-mile drive (which is a shorter drive than if staying in Truckee or North Lake in King's Beach/Tahoe Vista). Homewood Ski Area is 7.5 miles away.
5. The use of ANY outdoor firepit or outdoor fireplaces is strictly prohibited at all our rental properties. We appreciate your understanding and cooperation in helping to keep our community safe from wildfires.
