Carnelian Bay Getaway
Summary:
A serene slice of paradise along the shimmering north shore of iconic Lake Tahoe, the destination of Carnelian Bay is complete with everything you could possibly desire in a vacation destination – breathtaking lake views, crystal-clear waters, endless outdoor activities, and luxurious accommodations to serve as your home base between it all.
The Space:
Enter the enchanting home of Carnelian Bay Getaway, the ideal stay for your upcoming escape to this vibrant destination!
This charming retreat is nestled in a serene, pine-lined neighborhood, providing stunning views of the wooded surroundings from its multi-level decking. Start your day with a peaceful cup of coffee or unwind in the evening with a glass of wine, savoring the fresh air and abundant California sunshine. Dine al fresco at the outdoor table and plan unforgettable adventures with your loved ones.
When you’re ready to take full advantage of the lake, head into the city for a day at the beach or by boat for all manner of water sports and exploration of the expansive shoreline. Popular among anglers, this area also offers excellent opportunities for fishing, especially for lake trout. For those who prefer land-based activities, there are numerous hiking and biking trails with spectacular views of the lake and the surrounding Sierra Nevada mountains. Of course, in the winter months, you’ll want to set your sights on the numerous surrounding ski areas, each offering their own unique blend of challenging runs and cozy lodges.
Between expeditions, head back to the home to relax in comfort and style in spaces designed to maximize connectivity and entertainment. The living room includes plush sofa and chaise lounge seating to stretch out in while you stream all your favorite shows on the smart TV, the wood-burning fireplace creating the perfect ambiance for a cozy movie night. Large picture windows illuminate the room in natural light and keep the great outdoors front and center as you occupy your mind with a strategic game of chess or amp up the competition with an energetic match at the foosball table.
The stylish kitchen showcases stainless steel appliances, a farm sink, wine cooler, and sleek white cabinetry stocked with cookware and dining ware for all your mealtime ambitions. Gather together for formal meals at the elegant table with seating for 8 or snag a high-top stool at the kitchen counter for more casual bites or a breakfast on the go.
This home comfortably sleeps 10 guests between 5 private bedrooms.
Bedroom #1 includes a queen size bed, smart TV, and ensuite bathroom with a walk-in shower.
Bedroom #2 includes a full size bed and deck access.
Bedroom #3 includes a California king size bed, wood burning fireplace, dedicated workspace, and private balcony.
Bedroom #4 includes a queen size bed.
Bedroom #5 includes a queen size bed, dedicated workspace, and smart TV.
The home also includes 2 additional full guest bathrooms, each with a single vanity and shower/tub combo.
THINGS TO NOTE:

• Garage and driveway parking available for 3 vehicles.
• Pets are not allowed.
• This home has a very steep driveway. 4WD are necessary during winter months.
Carnelian Bay is a paradise for nature enthusiasts and adventure seekers alike. In the summer, the pristine beaches beckon visitors to indulge in a variety of water activities. Kayak across the tranquil lake, paddleboard along the shoreline, or simply relax on the sandy beaches soaking up the sun. For those with a penchant for hiking, the area offers an array of trails that meander through lush forests, providing panoramic vistas at every turn. When winter blankets the region in a powdery white, it transforms into a winter wonderland. Skiers and snowboarders can carve their way down world-class slopes at nearby Northstar California Resort and Diamond Peak. Cross-country skiing and snowshoeing trails offer a serene escape into the snowy wilderness, where you might even spot local wildlife against the snowy backdrop.
