Birchwood - Remodeled 3 BR- Wood Fireplace- Private Hot Tub- Ski Shuttle
Welcome to Birchwood Retreat, an enchanting Lake Tahoe vacation rental nestled in an unbeatable Alpine Meadows location. This recently renovated 3-bedroom, 2-bathroom mountain oasis is just a 10-minute drive from Tahoe City and minutes from the Truckee River Bike Path and the slopes at Palisades Tahoe, making it the perfect choice for active families and adventure enthusiasts.
Situated in a quiet cul-de-sac, this exquisitely designed Alpine Meadows getaway features an open floor plan with a stunning wall of windows that showcase the surrounding forested landscape. The main living area boasts lofty vaulted ceilings with exposed beams, a warm wood-burning fireplace, a flat-screen TV, and an artisanal wooden dining table that seats 6. The brand-new chef's kitchen is a culinary haven, boasting granite countertops, a huge island, and top-of-the-line stainless steel appliances, including a 6-burner gas range stove.
On the main floor, you'll discover a cozy guest bedroom featuring a queen-size bed dressed in plush bedding. The guest bathroom conveniently doubles as a laundry room and offers easy access to the backyard. Step out onto the large back deck from the main living area, where you can savor the fresh mountain air and relax in the private hot tub after an exciting day hitting the slopes or exploring Lake Tahoe.
The upstairs loft is dedicated to the Primary Bedroom, offering a king-size bed and a luxurious ensuite bathroom. Additionally, there's a guest bedroom with two bunk beds that the little ones will adore! This home features a detached two-car garage and a level driveway, ensuring easy access to and from all of your Lake Tahoe adventures.
