​​​​​Why You’ll Love This Tahoe House

Year-Round Outdoor Fun
Whether blanketed in snow or basking in sunshine, Alpine Meadows is a breathtaking destination in every season. In winter, enjoy world-class skiing, snowboarding, or sledding just minutes away at Tahoe Palisades (formerly Squaw Valley). In summer, the adventure continues with hiking, biking, and rafting right out your back door. Our family loves it here all year and we think you will too.

Please Note: The home is built into the mountainside and includes a main entry staircase and three short interior stairways. Guests should be comfortable with stairs.

The Neighborhood – Quiet, Scenic, and Ideally Located
Alpine Meadows is a peaceful alpine valley just minutes from both the Alpine and Palisades bases of the Tahoe Palisades Resort. You'll be:

5 minutes to the Alpine side
10 minutes to the Palisades side
15 minutes to the lakefront in Tahoe City

The area is home to both full-time residents and vacation homes, offering a quiet escape with easy access to adventure. ​In warmer months, hike to Five Lakes right from the house or explore nearby trails like the Tahoe Rim Trail and Pacific Crest Trail. On hot afternoons, head to Tahoe City to enjoy the beach, live music, family-friendly parks, or a leisurely float down the Truckee River—ending at the River Ranch Inn for a meal with a view.

Back at home, kids can safely roam, sled, or play in the forest behind the house. In spring and summer, hours fly by exploring the creek or soaking up the mountain sunshine.

Extras to Enhance Your Stay
To help you make the most of your time in Tahoe, we provide a detailed welcome binder filled with local insights:
- Ski and hiking trail guides
- Restaurant reviews
- Spa and activity recommendations
- Insider tips from our family


**Getting Here**
50 minutes from Reno Airport

Let us share our special place with you. Whether you come for the powder days or the mountain sunshine, this is the perfect home base for your year-round Tahoe adventures.
Located in Olympic Valley, this vacation home is in the mountains. Palisades Tahoe and Northstar California Resort are worth checking out if an activity is on the agenda, while those wishing to experience the area's natural beauty can explore Donner Lake.
