Tahoe Mountain Retreat

Retreat to this wonderful lakeview home with breathtaking panoramic views!

Enjoy relaxed living on a bluff above Lake Tahoe. Nestled in a hollow out of the prevailing wind, every room in this home looks out over the lake, with views across Crystal Bay Point and along the beautiful east shore. Be amazed by every mood the lake has to show, from the sun line rising on the Eastern Sierra to spectacular full moon nights which can be enjoyed from the private hot tub on the deck. Each room is tastefully decorated and the beds have high thread count linens, down comforters, and lots of soft pillows.

Our open floor plan has a master suite with queen bed upstairs off the living room/great room. The remaining bedrooms (second master suite with queen bed, and two queen bedrooms) are downstairs off the family room. We have a wonderful wood stove in the family room that heats the whole house and firewood is provided. The attached apartment has 1 queen bed in the bedroom with interior access to the apartment from the main house, as well as from the garage.

With 3500 sq. ft. of total living space there is room for everyone. There's a two car garage and plenty of off street parking. Enjoy High Speed Internet/Wi-Fi and Cable TV through out the home. We are located just one block from the lake, close to ski areas and casinos, Garwoods and 7-Eleven are just down the road.

We had the MOST wonderful time at this extremely spacious cabin and well-stocked kitchen. The owner always replied promptly to every question and the whole process was seamless. The views from the hot tub and EVERY bedroom was spectacular. We couldn't have had a better time (except if there had actually been snow!) Ha! I highly recommend this cabin and look forward to coming back again!

Everything about our stay was perfect! The house is stunning and the views are unmatched. The home is well stocked, very comfy beds and the the hot tub overlooking the lake was a great way to relax after skiing. The hosts communicated extremely well.

What an amazing house! This was honestly one of the best rentals we’ve ever had. Our family gathered for a family reunion, and this beautiful home had every amenity possible. It was spacious, clean, well equipped, comfortable, and to top it off, it had one of the most amazing views of Lake Tahoe we’ve ever seen. The hosts were communicative, very kind, and responsive. We can’t wait to book this amazing home again and again and create more incredible family memories!

This property's highlight was the view of the entire Lake Tahoe. Next was the layout of the house which includes three levels each with a seating area, bathrooms in all areas some with two, two kitchens. Could not ask for more! Everyone was delighted with our stay at the Tahoe Mountain Retreat.

Very impressive home with awesome views of Lake Tahoe from almost every window. Our 20 year old twin granddaughters enjoyed the hot tub with a beautiful setting. The kitchen was well supplied with everything you could need. It was a three story house so had lots of stairs. The owners are lovely people!

This is our second stay at this property and it was just as wonderful as our first time. The accommodations were perfect for our extended ski weekend with our family.
