Great Family Stay

Our family truly enjoyed our stay in this house. Nestled among the pine trees near Lake Tahoe, this cozy chalet-style house offers a perfect retreat from the hustle and bustle of everyday life. The interior exudes warmth with its wood paneling, stone fireplace, and charming rustic decor. The bedrooms are comfortable, and the kitchen is well-equipped for preparing meals after a day of outdoor adventures. A truly relaxing and memorable getaway!

About the host

Hosted by Dan and Heidi Thomas

Host profile image
It has been our privilege to host guests at our home from all over the world. Fortunately, we found the area where our home is located, Montgomery Estates, after much searching for a home at Lake Tahoe. It was a perfect blend of a serene area and close to great trails. Centrally located to the lake, town and Heavenly Ski Resort makes it the perfect location. Having vacant space behind us and to one side (conservancy property), affords more privacy. We love the relaxation the mountains and forest provide, along with the beauty of Lake Tahoe to enjoy year-round.

Our favorite thing to do in the summer is boating on the Lake. Also, we love utilizing High Meadow Trailhead, a short walk from our home, for hiking. There are many great bike trails that we love within a short drive. If you like mountain biking, there are trails just a few blocks away from our home. During winter we love to snow-shoe at High Meadow Trailhead. Family members enjoy skiing at nearby Heavenly Resort, 3.5 miles away.

Once you experience Montgomery Estates, you will fall in love with it too!

Why they chose this property

After vacationing in beautiful Lake Tahoe for many years, we decided that Tahoe was always going to be a special place for our family to enjoy for years to come. We started by staying in hotels, then purchased a timeshare at the Ridge Tahoe that we used throughout the year. Finally, we decided to find a home in a quiet, forested neighborhood, away from city noise, but close enough to enjoy the great Lake Tahoe amenities: Lake activities, casinos, shopping and skiing, without having to drive very far. Montgomery Estates was the answer, and we have loved vacationing here ever since. Check it out, and you'll see why this is such a special place at Lake Tahoe!

What makes this property unique

>Close to the Lake and Heavenly Ski Resort, a great central location
>Short walking distance to High Meadow Trailhead for hiking and snow shoeing
>Great hiking to Star Lake and Armstrong Pass from High Meadow Trailhead
>Established Off-road ATV/mountain bike trails nearby
>Large conservancy property behind and to one side of the cabin (no houses!)
>Small sled hill that runs behind our property-loved by kids
>Quiet neighborhood with minimal traffic
>Close to miles of paved biking paths throughout South Lake Tahoe
>CENTRAL AIR CONDITIONING, which is rare at Lake Tahoe!
>Well equipped kitchen
>Spacious garage
>Heated downstairs bathroom floor
