About this property
Ahwahnee Hotel Inspired Design in Homewood
Kamp Knobcone was built by a master builder as his family's West Shore Tahoe retreat. It is in the perfect West Shore location 6 minutes from Homewood Mountain Resort and a short walk to Chambers Landing Beach. High speed Suddenlink WIFI and a full cable channel lineup is available on the Bose Surround Sound Entertainment system. Enjoy music from around the world on the Yamaha MusicCast stereo. Relax in the Swedish dry sauna after snowboarding or hiking!
Luxuriate in the home's fine attention to detail. The hand-crafted details bring you back to an age where life was slower, focused on leisure time with family and friends in sumptuous surroundings.
Celebrate life with family at the massive single slab mahogany dining table adjacent to the well equipped chef's gourmet kitchen with a forty-eight inch commercial range, two sinks, and sharp knives.
When it's time to turn in, you'll find the bedrooms richly appointed with high-end mattresses, top quality linens, and comforters. The linens are professionally laundered by J D Linens.
The top floor contains a reading loft and two master bedrooms with ensuite baths, each with original oil paintings. On the lower level there is a well equipped exercise/entertainment room, two bathrooms, and two bedrooms with three beds each.The third master bedroom is in a private detached studio with soaking tub, separate shower, fireplace, and kitchen. An original oil replica of Bougereau's controversial painting "The Nymphaeum" 1873 is featured above the fireplace in the luxurious bathroom and a full size copy of Albert Bierstadt's "Moose" 1880 is above the mantel in the studio. The originals of each painting are hung in the Haggin Museum in Stockton, California.

Frequently asked questions
About the host
Hosted by Maclyn Morris

Kamp Knobcone was designed on a placemat while having breakfast in the grand Ahwahnee dining room. I have been a builder of fine art homes all of my life and built this home for my family retreat. We love to snowboard, hike, bicycle ride, and we created a kitchen where we all can cook together. The kitchen and Great Room with its massive fireplace are the entire main level of the home. It is where our four generation family spends time together. The heating is very comfortable in-floor hydronic.
Why they chose this property
Location, location, location. After working on Fluer de Lac in Tahoe Pines over several years, Maclyn fell in love with Lake Tahoe's West Shore and set out to find a quiet neighborhood to build his own West Shore home for his family. Kamp Knobcone backs up to trailheads into Desolation Wilderness and is a short walk to Lake Tahoe
What makes this property unique
There's really no place like Kamp Knobcone, especially when it combines all the modern amenities with timeless elegance and exquisite craftmanship. The architecture soars and the professionally furnished interior with huge original oil paintings dazzle and entice the senses!
