TahoeTarns Pictures

This 5-bedroom Lake Tahoe vacation rental home sleeps 14 comfortably & is located close to the lake, in a quiet residential area on a cul-de-sac street. The home is in Nevada, about one block from US Highway 50, 15 minutes from the Heavenly ski area, 4 miles north of the Stateline casinos, 1 mile from Sam's (a favorite for beer and pizza), and a 3-minute walk to the Zephyr Cove Resort public beach. Below are pictures of the home exterior and interior.

External Views

These views show the front deck and two-car garage (with automatic garage door opener). The street level entry will mean easy loading and unloading of your personal belongings. The neighborhood association provides snow clearing of the street, which assures access to the house and garage (but chains and/or four wheel drive are recommended in winter). There is room to park a maximum of three additional vehicles in front of the house (depending upon snow conditions). Additional parking is available at the Zephyr Cove Lodge.

These views show the two large decks. The big hot tub is built into the upper deck, hidden behind the trees in the view on the left.

In the spring we put out the upper deck patio furniture, and put it away for the winter (after Thanksgiving). The propane barbecue is available year-round.

The gas heated Hot Tub is "sunken" 10-inches into the deck, and is always ready for your enjoyment (104º F maximum temperature). An airswitch controls the pump speed and air bubbles from in the tub, and the rest of the equipment is hidden away in the basement, so you won't hear it while you're enjoying the hot tub! The Hot Tub cover can be locked in place to prevent access without adult supervision.

The TV in the Master Bedroom can be viewed from the Hot Tub. In the picture on the right, the proper technique for watching your favorite sporting event while enjoying the Hot Tub is demonstrated. The sports fan in the picture is imbibing a refreshing non-alcoholic beverage.

Upstairs Rooms

The top floor is at street level, with an attached two-car garage. This level has three bedrooms (all with queen-sized beds), two bathrooms, kitchen and dining area, living room, laundry room, and a large deck. The deck has a nice big Hot Tub, with awesome air and water jet action! There is also patio furniture (seasonal - we put some of it away for the winter) and a propane barbecue (year-round).

The living room has comfortable furniture, a woodburning fireplace with gas firestarter, a large console TV w/Cable-DVR, and CD/DVD/Stereo system.

The kitchen is fully equipped with quality appliances (Jenn-Air oven & range, Fidgidaire refrigerator, Bosch dishwasher), microwave oven, coffee maker, cooking utensils, dishes, coffee mugs, etc.  The photo on the right shows the new hardwood flooring (installed October 2008).

The dining area includes seating for eight at the large table (two extra chairs can be fit at the large table for a total seating of 10), a smaller table for four, and two stools at the kitchen counter. There are also eight TV trays for use on the deck. A variable-speed ceiling fan is installed above the large table. From the dining area, a sliding glass door opens to the upper deck, and a spiral staircase leads to the downstairs rooms.

We've set up a small "business center" in the laundry/mud room. Here you can conveniently check up on email, find places you want to visit on the web, and even print your boarding passes on the new HP Officejet printer/scanner/fax. With the wireless Internet available everywhere in the house, all you need is your laptop with a wireless network adapter.

All bedrooms are furnished with queen-sized beds, linens and towels, dresser, closet, lamps and clock radio. The Master Bedroom (left) has TV/VCR/cable, a private bathroom, and a sliding glass door to the upper deck & hot tub. Bedroom #1 (right) is closest to the living room, kitchen, front door, and hallway bathroom. Bedroom #2 (far right) is across the hall from the Master Bedroom (Bedroom #3).

Downstairs Rooms

The lower level has two more bedrooms (with queen-sized beds and ceiling fans - installed May 2010), a full bathroom, and a large family room with 4 twin beds and comfortable sofa, loveseat & over-sized chair/ottoman. An outside deck with patio table and chairs (all seasons) accesses the forest area below the house (great little hill for sledding in the winter!) and an exterior stairway that leads up to street level.

Bedroom #4 (left), is at the base of the stairs leading up to the upper level. Bedroom #5 (right) is closest to the downstairs bathroom and family room.

The family room has two sets of bunk beds, comfortable sofa, loveseat & over-sized chair/ottoman (right photo), console TV w/VCR/cable, and a junior pool table. Topographic maps of the Lake Tahoe area that are mounted on the walls, and if you're planning to spend some time reading, help yourself to the paperback books available in the bookshelf.
