サニー・シエラ・キャビン・イン・ザ・パインズ

Tai and I live in the beautiful coastal town of Santa Cruz with our 2 daughters and gentle giant of a dog, Kona. Before our move here, Tai lived in the Sierra Foothills and I lived in San Francisco. Our paths crossed in the Sierra moutains where we married in 2000 in a ceremony at a small cross country ski resort he had been managing, called Eagle Mountain. Although we live in a lovely beach community, a big part of our hearts is connected to the mountains of the Sierra. We were fortunate to buy a cabin in Tahoe Donner and have enjoyed many years of family vacations in both summers and winters up here. It has been a blessing raising our two daughters and sharing the beauty of both the coast and the mountains with them. We enjoy renting out our cabin so that we may give others the opportunity to savor the beauty and tranquility of our home away from home and the lovely natural surroundings of Truckee.

Not only were we married here, but Tai managed a cross country ski resort and white water rafting company in this area. We lived in the Sierra Foothills for awhile, but spent lots of time in the Truckee/Tahoe region. It was only natural for us to want to buy a place in this area as it has a lot of lovely memories and of course, we continue making many new ones. We knew that Tahoe Donner was the place we really wanted to be and grow. It has been amazing watching all the wonderful changes and improvements take place with this community.

This home was perfect! It was not too big and not too small. We had only a one year old at the time, but knew our family would grow and that this cabin would have all that we needed. We also love the space around us. We have an empty lot on one side and a small A-Frame home on the other. The south facing deck brings warmth and bright light into the upstairs where there is plenty of space for everyone to gather for happy hour on the deck, a board game around a crackling fire, or just some quiet reading time as a Sierra blizzard blows through or the warm summer breeze whistles softly through the pines. This little cabin has it all and you will feel refreshed and relaxed after a weekend or a week retreat any time of year.
