Space
ARRIVAL & FIRST IMPRESSIONS
The home opens into a bright, open layout with expansive windows that bring the lake setting indoors from the moment you arrive. The connected living, dining, kitchen, and game room spaces give the group room to spread out while staying close together.
THE LIVING SPACES
The main living room centers around a 55″ smart TV, an indoor fireplace, and a large plush sofa, with the open floor concept extending naturally into the kitchen, dining, and game room. It’s a layout built for a full house without ever feeling crowded.
THE KITCHEN
The kitchen is fully stocked and built for serious use — high-end appliances, a large island with bar seating, and a dedicated bar space with a beer and wine fridge. Ample cabinetry and a separate dining area make hosting the full group genuinely easy.
THE SUITES
The home offers five bedrooms sleeping up to 16 guests.
Bedroom 1: King bed, dedicated workspace, expansive windows, ensuite bathroom with dual vanity
Bedroom 2: King bed, dedicated workspace, expansive windows, ensuite bathroom with dual vanity
Bedroom 3: King bed, ensuite bathroom
Bedroom 4: Two twin-over-queen bunk beds, cozy reading nook, board games
Bedroom 5 (Lower Level): Two twin bunk beds, beanbags
Three of the five bedrooms include private ensuite bathrooms with dual vanities — a detail that meaningfully eases mornings when the house is full.
WELLNESS & RESTORATION
A dedicated home gym with a Peloton and full weight system gives guests a real option to keep up a routine, even on a lake getaway.
ENTERTAINMENT
The game room is genuinely stocked — a full selection of arcade games, skee ball, and a wet bar with its own sink and beverage fridge, all opening directly into the main living space.
YOUR PRIVATE GROUNDS
The outdoor space takes full advantage of the lakefront setting — a year-round hot tub, a gas fire pit, and a built-in BBQ grill anchor the patio, with direct lake access for swimming and kayaking when the season allows. Please note that outdoor furniture and lake equipment are offered seasonally and may not be available outside the warmer months.
THE SURROUNDING AREA
Donner Memorial State Park and Sugar Bowl Resort are both close by, offering everything from lakeside hiking to world-class skiing depending on the season. Downtown Truckee is a short drive for dining and shopping, with Moody’s Bistro and Trokay standing out for a proper dinner out.
