Perks for the Parents
Escape to a tranquil family home on 1.5 acres, nestled in the peaceful landscape between Sacramento and Lake Tahoe. It sleeps 8. Set over 2100 sqft, this stylish contemporary home is tucked away off the main county road, adjacent to a calming water canal and surrounded by large pine trees. Sit on the spacious back deck and watch the flowing water by or discover the clearest of skies at night for stargazing. They even have a large concrete pad for parking RVs or boats, so you can explore the region’s lakes and mountains with ease.
Why Kids Love it
This is the perfect home for kids who love to explore outdoors. There’s a large outdoor deck that’s surrounded by nature, with an open-top treehouse that you can climb up and overlook the woodland scenery or gaze at the dazzling stars at night. There’s a community swimming pool in nearby Dutch Flats (5 minutes), plenty of hiking trails around and a waterfall at South Yuba (30 minutes).
Things to Know
The property is managed by a professional concierge company who can assist you 24/7 with any customer service requirements. Rates include a complimentary coffee & tea starter pack, entertainment channels (including Netflix), WiFi and parking for 2 cars in a private garage (plus additional parking on the driveway). Car rental is essential in this rural area.
About the Location
This home is located on the edge of the Tahoe National Forest, 1.5 hours from Lake Tahoe and just over 1 hour from Sacramento. The ski resorts surrounding Lake Tahoe are around 1 hour away (Soda Springs, Boreal Mountain and Sugar Bowl). You can hire boats or swim in Rollins Lake (20 minutes) or explore the challenging trails in the surrounding rural areas. Sacramento airport is around 1 hour away.
Accommodation Details
The property has 3 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms, all set over 1 floor. The main living area boasts plenty of seating, a 58” Smart TV and a double sofabed, sharing the hallway bathroom. There’s also a second living room with a cozy fireplace, as well as a separate kitchen and dining room which features sliding doors leading out on to the terrace. The primary bedroom features a kingsize bed and ensuite bathroom; bedrooms 2 and 3 both have queensize beds and share a bathroom (with shower-over-bathtub).
Style Notes
Modern cabin. The hosts have decorated with a neutral, calming color palette, punctuated with striking black furniture and black hardware to add an industrial feel. The cozy wood burner creates a modern take on a classic look, while the use of natural wood in the kitchen and bathrooms references traditional cabin materials. We love the exposed stone wall in the dining room, the contemporary wishbone dining chairs and the nature-inspired wall art.

Lake Tahoe and Truckee, California
Ski slopes and secret beaches
America’s best lake, where Nevada and California meet, is an escape from city living and a return to outdoors fun, surrounded by pine forests and rugged mountains. In the summer, play on the beach, go pleasure boating or take to the lake trying any number of watersports activities - scuba diving, jet skiing, waterskiing and more are on offer. Simply swimming in the clear water is the best fun. And in the winter, the ski stations nearby offer so much for families: tubing, skiing, skating and sledding, plus daycare for kids from two months old.
