About this property

Honeymooner: Studio, 1.5 BA Townhouse in Carnelian Bay, Sleeps 4

Settle into your recently updated townhome with new granite, fixtures, and wood flooring. The Honeymooner sleeps up to four guests—the perfect place for a small family or a couple’s romantic getaway. Located in Carnelian Bay, make yourself at home in the vacation spot near everything!

On the entry level you’ll find a cozy space with a large slate wood-burning fireplace and flat screen TV. Beautiful, rustic décor, updated furnishings, and plenty of natural light add to the ambiance and charm. Put your feet up and listen to tunes on the stereo. Catch up on email or book your next stay with us on the Wi-Fi. The Queen bed is located in this space.

Breathe easy as the wind whispers through the pines while you relax with your favorite beverage on the balcony, marveling at the filtered lake views. Prepare dinner in the well-equipped, updated kitchen, featuring granite countertops, slate backsplash, and stainless-steel appliances. There’s plenty of seating to enjoy your meals at the breakfast bar or nearby dining table.

For your convenience, there’s also a half bath and laundry area on the main floor.

When you’re ready to turn in, the sofa transforms into a comfy full-size sleeper. There’s an accordion partition for privacy. Wake up refreshed and enjoy a quiet morning with coffee and a book on the side chair. This level includes a full bath with a tub/shower combo and plenty of bath linens.

When you’re ready to venture outside, you’ll love this perfect vacation setting. The Recreation Center / Lodge features a swimming pool, two outdoor hot tubs, locker room saunas, billiards, tennis and bocce courts, and a fitness trail. The complex backs up to Tahoe National Forest, offering miles of hiking, biking, cross-country skiing, and other activities year-round.

The Honeymooner is in Carnelian Bay, where all North Lake Tahoe is right at your doorstep! Stroll down to Magic Carpet mini golf or check out Waterman’s Landing, located at Patton Landing Beach, a 3-acre, pebbly beach known for stand-up paddling.

To experience Lake Tahoe gambling and nightlife, Incline Village and Nevada's historic casino Crystal Bay are a short drive away, just across the state line.

Closer to home, you'll find superb dining options right in town like Gar Woods Grill and Pier for steaks and fish, the Old Post Office Coffee Shop for hearty breakfasts, and CB's Pizza for hand-tossed pies and beer.

You're only 10-12 miles from three great ski resorts—Northstar, Alpine Meadows, and Squaw Valley. Whether you prefer to downhill or cross-country ski, snowboard, snowshoe, or go sledding or ice skating, North Tahoe is the place for winter fun.

At Squaw Valley, after conquering the slopes, go tubing with the kids or try out the mini snowmobiles at SnoVentures Activity Zone. There are dogsledding tours too!

In every season, the Village at Squaw Valley offers dining, shopping, the Squaw Valley Aerial Tram, and a variety of activities.

In the summer, ride the Aerial Tram to High Camp then choose a scenic trail and walk or hike in one of the most breathtaking places in the world! At 8,200 feet elevation, admire the beauty of the Sierra Nevada Mountains with views of Lake Tahoe and Squaw Valley's legendary granite peaks. In the Aerial Tram building lobby, kids and grownups can have a blast climbing the variety of routes on the 30’ simulated Headwall Climbing Wall. If you dare, learn how to do a front or back somersault at Skyjump; all ages are welcome.

NOTE: Carnelian Woods Amenities: Hot Tubs are Typically open daily in summer and winter, Saturdays only in spring and fall. Pool and Tennis open summer only. Amenity access never guaranteed. Please check website for availability: carnelianwoodsorg

Absolutely magical
The property is just perfect for two people on a romantic getaway. The fireplace is amazing, the kitchen is more than suitable, and there are restaurants and bars within a mile drive that are beautiful, convenient, and gorgeously scenic. Highly recommend!

Reminds Me of My Grandfather's Tahoe Townhouse
This is a very comfortable property on the edge of town. Lots of trees and a clean, cozy atmosphere. It takes me back to visits to my grandfather's place at Incline.

Nice stay
We loved the sofa bed in the living area to watch tv etc. tv operation was a bit challenging. Burnt out lightbulb in master bath. The heater blasted us out especially upstairs. All in all a wonderful stay

Great spot for our snow trip
Everything was as advertised. Our family of 4 had a great trip to Palisades Tahoe. The location would also work for Northstar. Either way leave plenty of time for weekend traffic. Property was clean and cozy.

Cozy, comfortable stay
Nice place with plenty of warm blankets and pillows for comfort. Easy parking and very drivable to ski mountains. Sometimes the roof makes it sound like it's raining, but it's just trees or small animals on it. Also the loft is open to down below, but we didn't mind.

Good
My husband and I enjoyed our stay here. The condo unit was homey, the location was great, and Carnelian Woods had fun things to do. My only complaint is that the rental agency required additional details and signing a rental agreement through email, which made it more of a hassle to rent.

Good getaway!
Our stay in Carnelian Bay was just what the doctor ordered. The place was clean, spacious, and as advertised. The property manager was excellent and went out of his way to answer questions that I honestly should have known if I read the directions more carefully, and he even stopped by to show use how to use the TV remotes. I would say that the walkability of the place isn’t as good as it appears on the map because it sits on a large hill. However, that’s likely true of a lot of places in Lake Tahoe. All in all, I would definitely stay here again!

Stay at Onyx Gem
We had a great experience overall. We enjoyed the spaciousness of the home and the amenities for two people. However, we encountered 5-10 bugs that looked like large ants that had entered the home, in various places (bedroom, in the hall, on the stairwell). This slightly detracted from our experience because we were worried where more would come from, and if this was an infestation that would affect our enjoyment of spaces such as the kitchen, e.g.

First time at Lake Tahoe
Nice townhouse accommodation. Property maintained well, but was basic with no frills. Access code I was provided did not work, but a call to management provided a code update. (They were able to update code remotely.) I’m not sure how this might have worked if arriving after office hours. Other than this glitch, great stay. Would stay again if visiting the area.

Rating Details: The property manager was adequately helpful. The vacation rental was very clean. I was very happy with the location. I was more than satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: The good: Great location, beautiful setting, nicely appointed condo and very clean.The not so good: Condo was not cleaned until an hour after our 4:00 p.m. arrival time. The clothes washing machine malfunctioned and would not drain properly, though we eventually got it to work after several attempts. Left a note for management company to repair as we checked out.All in all, it was an enjoyable experience.
