Joy on the River – Stunning Waterfront Home for 10
Summary: Amid the breathtaking Sierra Nevada Mountains, Tahoe City is a year-round destination that seamlessly blends natural beauty with outdoor adventure.
The Space: Known for its stunning alpine scenery, world-class ski resorts, and a laid-back mountain vibe, visitors come from all over to embrace the great outdoors in every season. This tranquil 4-bedroom home is a luxurious paradise with room for the whole family, set within the pine-lined forest alongside the picturesque Truckee River. You’ll quickly find your inner peace spending moments outdoors, listening to the sounds of the water as it steadily flows by. In the winter months, snow-covered slopes and crisp mountain air create an idyllic setting for sports enthusiasts of all levels. As the snow melts, the area transforms into a summer utopia where hiking and mountain biking trails crisscross the landscape, offering breathtaking views of Lake Tahoe and the surrounding mountains. Speaking of Lake Tahoe, you’ll be just a short drive away from this iconic landmark where visitors can enjoy a myriad of water activities including kayaking, paddleboarding, or simply relaxing on the pristine beaches.
Stepping into the home, modern architecture makes a statement as it blends seamlessly with elevated furnishings and stylish décor, providing sophisticated spaces for relaxation and connectivity. The living room offers a plush sofa and armchair seating, a smart TV, and a showpiece fireplace to keep you surrounded by warmth and ambiance during the colder months. Floor-to-ceiling picture windows illuminate the room in natural light and offer stunning views of the river, providing the perfect environment for catching up on a good book. From here, make your way into the stylish kitchen, a chef’s delight with professional appliances, stone countertops, and ample cabinetry stocked with all the comforts of home. The island offers stool seating for 3 for assisting with meal preparation or enjoying a spread of afternoon hors d’oeuvres. Gather inside the booth seating for a quick breakfast or cup of coffee with a view, while formal meals can be taken together at the elegant dining table with seating for 8.

Amazing place and lovely neighbors
We had a fantastic weekend stay. The house was very clean, spacious, and the kitchen was very well stocked. The neighbors even came over to say hello when we were out on the porch and gave us all kinds of recommendations. Host was super responsive as well. Couldn't recommend more. Will hopefully be back again!
