Neighborhood
If relaxation in the great outdoors is what you are looking for, this North Lake Tahoe gem has everything you need for an amazing Lake Tahoe vacation. The cabin is situated on a quiet street just minutes away from an endless network of National Forest trails. During the winter months, hit the trails and enjoy cross-country skiing and snowmobiling, and in the summer, these same trails turn into perfect areas for hiking, mountain biking, or dirt biking. You can even drive your car along the dirt road in the summers to access the famous Tahoe Rim Trail and hike to Watson Peak! This same trailhead also offers access to a paved bike path that can take you to Tahoe City and beyond. In the winter months, the bike path is well maintained for 3 miles, allowing you to easily snowshoe or XC ski out and back through the woods. The location of the home places you near some of the best skiing in the area, with Palisades Tahoe 18 minutes away and Northstar Ski Resort only 20 minutes away. If Nordic skiing is more your style, you are just 5 minutes from the Tahoe City Nordic XC Center. For those looking for a little less outdoor adventure, the beautiful town of Tahoe City is only 8 minutes away, where you will find large grocery stores, boutique shops, a wide variety of bars and restaurants, a movie theater, and in the summer, a farmer’s market and live music. Down the road in the other direction brings you to Agate Bay, where you will find the famous Gar Woods Grill and Pier as well as Watermans Landing, where you can rent a wide variety of watercraft.
