Private Beach Park, Sauna, Hot Tub, Dog & Family Friendly

LOCATION: This 3 bedroom, 2 bathroom home is in the hillside neighborhood of Talmont estates in Tahoe City, about a mile above the lake at elevation 6900'. From this West Shore location, it's easy to get out and explore the beautiful scenery, outdoor activities and landmarks that make Lake Tahoe famous. The house is just one block away from a trail system that leads to Page Meadows, and eventually the Tahoe Rim Trail and Pacific Crest Trail. This trail system is great for hiking/biking in the summer, or snowshoeing/cross country skiing in the winter. This open-concept, comfortable vacation home with sauna and hot tub, and quick access to year-round activities makes it a good choice for a relaxing stay.
