In the wintertime, you can watch skiers short cut home from Alpine Meadows through the front yard, and in the summertime you can watch squirrels climb the trees. Down the hall is laundry home, full bath, sauna area and another bedroom with queen bed,TV and twin. The sauna is the size of one you’d have a gym: 2 levels with enough room to spread out in. Next to the sauna is a changing area and with a ‘Finnish’ touch. Cool off in the shower room with four shower heads and glass atrium that looks out into the forest. It’s a great way to end a non stop day. The changing area is also connected to a full bathroom. There are bathrobes in the bedrooms and in changing area for your use during your stay here.

The second level is the ‘Great Room’ and that it is. With 22 foot cathedral ceilings with floor to ceiling windows you won’t be able to keep your eyes off the beautiful views of Twin Peaks . Bring your binoculars to view the occasional extreme skiers who snow mobiles up the mountain range and ski’s down, and the incredible sights of wildlife year around. Two sliding glass doors exit out to a sunny wrap around deck with a barbecue, and patio furniture which is used in summer and winter. This level has the kitchen, living area and dining area all looking out to the views. The granite countertop kitchen is fully stocked and overlooks the living and dining area. The living area has a leather sectional and faces a large stone fireplace and 55″ HDTV. The crackling sound of wood burning is a treat. The dining area is 1/2 nook with pillows, and 1/2 chairs. You can eat here, or relax here. It all faces an entertainment center with TV. DVD, stereo, IPod dock, and some games. From all areas in the main area, you can watch TV, enjoy the fireplace and views, or socialize with the rest of your group.

Off the living area is another full bath attached to a bedroom with queen bed and TV. Next to that room is the Master Bedroom. There is a King-size sleigh bed with TV, half bath off a changing area, and walk in closet. Indirect lighting and views of the forest make this room a bonus.

Beautiful Views, Great Amenities, Great Location
My family and friends stayed here for 1 week in March. We walking into the “the Great room” and was amazed at the views from the deck and the whole room!. The bedrooms were comfortable, the kitchen stocked with all the kitchen gadgets we needed, and the sauna and hot tub were a real plus. We skiing all day and it was bliss to chill in the tub. The skiing was fantastic. There is a homeowners parking lot that we had a pass for when we didn’t want to walk to the lifts. We could just park the car and walk right across the street to get on the lift. There is also a warming hut with bbq and beer at lunch, but some of our non skiers enjoyed having coffee there in the morning and just watching the skiers.
It is located in Tahoe City, on the back side of Alpine Meadows, so it was a lot closer to the lake and downtown Tahoe City. The house was super quiet with all the house in this area divided by forest land. We really felt like we were in Lake Tahoe with all the pines, yet close to stores and restaurants. We plan on coming back this summer to enjoy the Lake. It is 3 miles from the Lake on the West Shore, and close to Chambers Landing which is our favorite beach. It is also close to the bike paths so we’re bringing our bikes.Great home, can’t wait to come back to this.

Thanks for sharing your home
I can’t tell you how much we enjoyed your home. The location, the amenities, and the decor was perfect for us. We wanted a place to celebrate my dad’s birthday and just hang out. We really enjoyed the deck and the beautiful views from the deck and great room. There was plenty of room to spread out but still be as family. It was nice being so close to the Lake, yet in such a quiet neighborhood that really felt like Tahoe. We also enjoyed the hiking and biking trails in the neighborhood. We used the homeowners tennis courts once, and we all realized we were too bad to attempt it again. Thank you so much for the opportunity to use your home. We will look forward to coming back here.
