About this property

Modern House Ski Lease or short term, New Hot Tub&Gas Insert, by Nordic Center

This is a great location, just 2 miles north of Tahoe City. The Alpine center is just up the street for cross country skiing and fantastic summer mountain bike trails.

Within 6-11 miles of 4 world class ski resorts, yet close enough to town for easy grocery shopping or fine dining. A convenience store with Redbox DVD rentals is just 7 houses away on North Lake Blvd. Paved bike trails to town, resorts and along Truckee River.
The house is broken into three distinct units. Shown rates are for main unit only. Inquire about renting apartment above garage/great room available for the holiday season at an additional cost of $175 per night and $60 additional cleaning. The lower unit has full time renters respectful, friendly and helpful to many renters.
A filtered lake view through tree foliage, really not much to see, but elevated living spaces provide lots of light and privacy for hot tub. Good view of mountains off above garage deck.
Pet Friendly. Primary renters must be 25 years or older.

Relaxing vacation home
A much needed vacation for the week! The property was just as advertised. Convenient to many local attractions and except for the summer heat wave, was a perfect week. Jim was a great host!

Great place
We loved our stay in Tahoe! The location is perfect, close to activities without being in the middle of everyone. It's very comfy and spacious, and the hot tub was the absolute highlight. The house had everything we needed. We were able to cook meals in the well-stocked kitchen, which saved us from having to deal with crowds at the restaurants. The beds were very comfortable, bathrooms were clean, and there was nice space in the living room to lounge and watch movies at night. We also loved being able to have our dog with us. There's a trailhead a short walk up the street that gave her space to run and explore. We all loved the big balcony to sit and read in the afternoon and of course soak in the hot tub each night. Jim was an excellent host and gave us great suggestions around the area. Can't wait to return!

About the host

Hosted by Jim Kunkel

Host profile image
I reside in Tahoe area now. I had a great career, and decided this was a great place to work from. Thus, it's well set up for an office or two for those that can't escape. I enjoy golfing, biking, rafting and fly-fishing...all things to do in this area and can share my toys to make for a more enjoyable, complete vacation. Would be happy to join in to your group should you want some interaction, helping with food and transportation.

Why they chose this property

Years ago, this simple house was bought as an investment by single roommates looking for a ski lease. It has evolved to a much larger place with all season benefits.

What makes this property unique

Sitting in the hot tub watching the stars or being snowed on. Sitting with a drink, listening to good music. Wine tasting and BBQing on the main upper deck, entertaining old friends and new. Mountains bike rides at the Nordic Center, just up the hill, is great especially in the evenings. The bike lake/river trail is a couple hundred yards away...paved to Squaw Valley, 8 miles away, mostly riding along the Truckee River where rafting can be a great summer adventure.
