Perched above the Truckee River with views of the Carson Range, Mount Rose, and Northstar, this classic A-Frame cabin does something most mountain rentals can't. It delivers genuine rustic charm without asking you to give up a single comfort. Beautiful wood finishes, a wall of windows framing the peaks, a wood-burning fireplace, and a full game room waiting in the garage. This is the mountain cabin people actually picture when they start dreaming about Truckee.
Located in the quiet Olympic Heights neighborhood, you are minutes from downtown Truckee, Donner Lake, Northstar, Sugar Bowl, and Palisades Tahoe. Everything is close. Nothing feels crowded.
THE VIEW AND MAIN LIVING SPACE
The great room earns its name. An expansive wall of windows pulls the Carson Range, Mount Rose, and Northstar directly into the living space, filling the room with light and scenery from morning through sunset. A wood-burning fireplace anchors it all and the kind that makes a cold Truckee night feel exactly right.
Flow from here into the dining room and fully equipped kitchen, or step out to the lower patio for a morning coffee with the mountains as your backdrop.

UPPER DECK AND OUTDOOR SPACES
The upper deck is the crown of this cabin. Protected from the elements and perched above the river, it is the perfect spot for morning coffee, afternoon reading, or a glass of wine as the light fades over the peaks.
The lower patio offers a more tucked-in setting with Adirondack chairs, an umbrella, and a gas BBQ for easy outdoor dining.

GAME ROOM: FOUR GAMES, ZERO BOREDOM
The converted garage is a legitimate game room and not an afterthought.

GOOD TO KNOW
The home is exclusively yours for your entire stay. No shared spaces, no interruptions. Come and go as you please.
Winter Access: A 4WD vehicle and chains may be required during or after a storm. Northstar is about a 10-minute drive, so you will be glad you came prepared.
Parking: Up to 3 vehicles in the driveway. Garage is not available for parking.
No A/C, but ceiling fans in every room plus window fans, tower fans, and cooler nighttime temps keep things comfortable year-round.
No smoking anywhere on the property.
No open flames. Tahoe's forests are highly fire-prone.
No parties, events or commercial shoots. We keep things low-key.
Shoes off indoors, please.
Two floors. Stairs are part of the charm.
Cancellations: Our policy is firm. We strongly recommend travel insurance for weather, road closures or air quality events.
Tahoe is wild and wonderful, and occasionally unpredictable. Thanks in advance for your patience if nature has other plans. We're thrilled to have you. Take care of this place, and it'll take care of you.
