About this property

Angora Highlands Updated Home, close to Fallen Leaf Lake, quiet location!

Stylish, updated home in a peaceful jewel box neighborhood. The Angora Holmes house is located in the stunning Angora hills and sits just above Fallen Leaf Lake. The home is surrounded by forest service land, with front door access to trails, biking, and just 20 minutes drive to Sierra-at-Tahoe and Heavenly ski resorts. 7 minutes to town, yet feels worlds away with very little traffic, noise pollution or light pollution. You won't believe how bright the stars are up here on clear nights.

This is the perfect spot for active guests, wanting stylish yet comfortable accommodations. We put a lot of love and thought into making this place a special find because we use it 50% of the year and don't list it often.

Our 1750 sq. ft. house is great for smaller sized families and friends to enjoy comfortable living right across from the open meadows and forests. The whole upstairs floors of the house (bathrooms included) have been updated with designer touches, fresh paint, new floors and doors. Also new beds, bedding, pillows, etc. She is fresh as a daisy!

We are 10 minutes from Raley's, restaurants breweries, shopping and everything you could possibly need.
Fallen Leaf lake is a 20 minute walk
Lake Tahoe beaches are 15 min drive or bike ride via a back road, you don't have to go back through town during the summer season either!

Overall Best Experience

This home was so cozy and beautiful. It is in a quiet neighborhood with a scenic drive and the most amazing views. The host was attentive and friendly. The home is not far at all from casinos, restaurants and Heavenly Mountain. The home had everything we needed for us to be comfortable and even had games for us to enjoy. I can not wait to book my next trip here. I highly recommend staying here. The host and home was lovely.

One of the best stays in Lake Tahoe

I don’t usually leave reviews, but I wanted to share our wonderful experience during our recent stay. We stayed for 2 nights and 3 days, and the property owner/manager was kind enough to accommodate an early check-in. The place was impeccably clean, and the layout of the house was incredibly well-thought-out. It was evident that the home had been recently remodeled, and it was exceptionally well-stocked with everything we needed—something that feels rare these days. Overall, we couldn’t have been happier with our stay!

Great house!

We stayed over Christmas and couldn't have been happier. Check in was super easy. The house has been updated very nicely (including heated floors and a heated bidet toilet in the master bath!). The upstairs was great for our son. He loved the game room and bunk beds! All the beds were comfy and had nice linens and bed spreads (which I find is rare in rentals!). The bathrooms and kitchen were all nicely appointed with everything we could have needed. We can't wait to stay again!

Diamond in the rough!

I have been coming up to Tahoe for the past 20 years and I can say this is one of the best homes I've stayed at. This isn't one of your cheesy mountain decor spots with enough rooms. You get a beautifully decorated lux feel while in the middle of nature. Oh, and you are surprisingly close to all the happenings in South Lake for both family and friends looking to have fun. Lastly, the host is extremely responsive and accommodating. She had a nice crib set up for our 11 month old daughter before we got there. We'll definitely be rebooking on our next trip!

Great spot in SLT!!

We had a fantastic time with our stay. We were up in Tahoe from Oakland with my brother’s family from out of state with their 1st trip to Tahoe with their young teenage kids. There was plenty of room for our crew of 8 includes our 2 young kids. The house had great access to Heavenly and Sierra. Our kids had a great time playing in the snow in the front yard and in the lot across the street for some beginner sledding.The only minor drawback is the memory foam mattresses on all of the beds other than the master. But if you’re a still sleeper and don’t have back issues, they aren’t a problem.The bidet, heated toilet seat and heated floor in the master was a particularly nice surprise.The hosts also did a great job of communicating. They checked in halfway through and even lined up a neighbor to clear the driveway after we got dumped on the night before our departure.

About the host

Hosted by Michele Holmes

Host profile image
We are a family of 3 who loves the Angora neighborhood so much. It has always been a dream to have a place in Tahoe. We spent 2 years updating this house for a comfortable place to land in between hiking, swimming, skiing, shredding and adventuring in the basin.

Why they chose this property

Angora Highlands is a jewel box neighborhood that sits 7 minutes above town. Its a super quiet peaceful spot, yet close to everything you could possible need or want to do.

What makes this property unique

Our property cozy, super clean and tastefully decorated. It is walking distance to many trails and walking/ biking distance to fallen leaf lake AND lake tahoe beaches. We have forest service land in front and behind us so very few neighbor interactions making this place super quiet and peaceful.
