When the snowflakes gently fall around this beautiful cabin, it creates a feeling of being in the center of a snow globe. The soaring windows of the cabin offer amazing views of the surrounding forest. Additionally, the cabin is conveniently located near hiking and biking trails, providing ample opportunities for summertime fun.
This wonderful home is located in the Alpine Peaks neighborhood on Lake Tahoe’s West Shore and makes a great year-round destination. In winter, hop on the Sherwood Chair* at the back side of Alpine Meadows ski resort with your car parked nearby at the private HOA lot. In summer, enjoy the tennis courts which are a mere 3 minute walk away or head out for a stunningly scenic hike in the surrounding mountains. Trailheads for the famous Tahoe Rim Trail and spectacular Paige Meadows are easily accessible.
Enter on the bottom floor of this tri-level home to find the recreation room and laundry facilities. The rec room has a flat screen TV with DirectTV satellite, streaming on Apple TV, BluRay DVD, plus Game Cube and PS3; table for games; cushy sectional couch; separate memory foam Queen sofa sleeper; and a full bathroom.
Mid-level has the living room with wood fireplace, Sonos sound system and those great big windows; dining area with expanding table; well-equipped kitchen; bedroom with a New Queen bed; the Kids’ bedroom with one Twin bed and a set of Twin bunkbeds; and full guest bathroom in the hall. The living room is stocked with lots of games, puzzles and books, including local trail and nature guides. Exterior deck offers a gas grill for use during summer.
Top level has the spacious Cal King master bedroom with Sonos sound system and bathroom with jetted tub and separate shower. Heated floors throughout keep you toasty warm.
The Alpine Peaks area is delightfully secluded a few miles up Ward Canyon, but it’s still conveniently close to Sunnyside, Tahoe City and all the awesome adventures the West Shore offers.

Snowglobe Vacation House Review
We had an incredible stay at Snowglobe, a spacious and cozy cabin nestled in Ward Canyon. The house was perfect for our family getaway—quiet, inviting, and very dog-friendly, making it ideal for both kids and pets. The neighborhood was peaceful, with friendly neighbors, and the location offered easy access to nature right out the back door. The cabin itself was well-equipped with great amenities, ensuring a comfortable and relaxing stay. Whether we were lounging inside by the fireplace or exploring the surrounding outdoors, Snowglobe provided a wonderful escape. Highly recommend for anyone looking for a tranquil and family-oriented retreat!

Reviewer Comments:
This is our fourth time in 4 years renting the snowglobe as a family and we love it more each time we go. It is the most perfect home in the most perfect location! One thing I would say, and this is not a knock on the home, is that the drainage needs to be fixed in the garage so that when snow melts from the driveway into the garage, it does not collect on the inside of the garage. This has been an issue for a couple years with this house as far as we can tell.

Uniquely beautiful home + location.
The Snowglobe is a beautifully designed and built home in a wooded area with generous spacing between homes and wide open space behind it. The natural light and views are great. The kitchen is very well appointed (quality pots/pans/knives/etc). If you have a ski pass or pre-purchased tickets, you are just a two minute drive from the Sherwood lift at Alpine Meadows/Palisades. Stunning architecture. Great fireplace. Jacuzzi bathtub + separate shower in master. Two other nice full bathrooms. Comfy bedding. Garage for your car. Recommended!

La casa fue lo que esperábamos para una escapada de invierno, contaba con todos los utensilios de cocina que puedas imaginar, cuartos agradables y todos climatizados, la chimenea, y el gran patio trasero para disfrutar de la naturaleza. Cercana a los ski resorts más importantes, supermercados, restaurantes. Los administradores siempre atentos de cualquier solicitud. Este fue un viaje familiar y lo disfrutamos muchísimo. Sin duda alguna nos gustaría repetir.

We rented this house for the MLK 2024 weekend; it was our second time staying here. House is great - very comfortable, well-stocked, clean and the light in the main room during the day is great. Layout is good too - one main bedroom + full bath on the top floor; two bedrooms and full bath on second floor; and TV room and full bath on the ground floor. For skiers, location is great when Sherwood chair is running at Alpine, but even when it isn't, easy drive to both Alpine and Palisades.

We came here for the weekend with our dog and it was our first time staying in this neighborhood in the summer. Amazing! We felt like we were in a tree house, with gorgeous forest views, and stars we could see from our bed at night. We enjoyed walking to Alpine Meadows for a mellow hike. And yet we were really close to the lake, Fire Sign, West Shore Market, etc. The home was in beautiful condition - extremely well maintained, clean, spacious. We will definitely be back! Thanks for such a wonderful stay.

The snow globe is in the woods with very quiet neighbors. It was well stocked and made you feel at home. The windows,

Delightfully colorful getaway
Magically like being inside a snowglobe when it's snowing with endless forest and burbling brook outside. Well stocked and close to both Palisades skiing and Sunnyside on Lake Tahoe. Only the small size (a double in the second bedroom) and location of the beds for adults was a problem. Two of the six slept first in the kids room then in the family room pull-out. On the whole one of our absolutely best ski rentals in 38 years of renting and the owners even welcomed our dog!

Everything about this house was great for our family. The little things lacking in other places were in abundance here and very comfortable. Blankets everywhere, items for kitchen to be able to cook good meals, access to areas of house.
The view is amazing and the neighborhood was great to walk in. Very close to the slopes!
