Oslo Haus by AvantStay | Cabin Retreat Near Northstar + Downtown Truckee

Nestled among the towering pines of Truckee, Oslo Haus invites you to unwind in a perfect blend of alpine charm and modern comfort. This three-bedroom, 2.5-bathroom cabin is your gateway to Lake Tahoe’s year-round adventures, offering a bright, airy retreat with soaring wooden ceilings and large picture windows that frame the natural beauty just outside your door.

Step inside and feel instantly at home in the inviting main living space, where plush seating surrounds a cozy fireplace, creating the perfect setting for fireside conversations, movie nights, or simply relaxing after a day on the slopes. Just steps away, the open-concept kitchen and dining area make mealtimes a breeze—whether you’re cooking a hearty breakfast before hitting the trails or sipping hot cocoa at the barstool-lined island.

At the end of the day, retreat to the serene primary suite, complete with its own TV and a spa-like ensuite featuring a soaking tub and a walk-in shower—ideal for soothing tired muscles after a day of skiing or hiking. Two additional bedrooms provide comfortable accommodations for family and friends, while the in-home laundry and ample parking add to the convenience.

Beyond the cabin, you’re perfectly positioned to explore Downtown Truckee’s charming shops and restaurants, the slopes of Northstar and Palisades Tahoe, Donner Lake’s tranquil shores, and endless outdoor recreation. Whether you’re here for powder days, summer hikes, or crisp autumn air, Oslo Haus is your home away from home in the mountains.
