Our team works hard to make Big Chief Retreat a quiet, private place to enjoy. From going skiing in 15 minutes, our hitting the town of Truckee. Also can't beat pulling out your fishing pole to catch some fresh trout in your back yard.

The house is well equipped with most essentials. Complimentary snacks and lots of spices, oils etc for cooking. Nice small beach accross the street. Great garage parking. Only down side would be only 1 shower.
