In the summer, a community pool awaits within walking distance (half a block away). Town is a brisk 15 min walk down the hill the historic Dutch Flat Hotel which may offer a meal (check for current status), and the Monte Vista Inn offers a spectacular local watering hole and fabulous dining experience including breathtaking desserts.
Winter offers snow retreats, snuggling near the fire and maybe some cross-country skiing. Downhill skiing is about 45 min directly up I 80 at Borreal or a bit further into Tahoe country. With easy access off I 80, this is the perfect location for Sierra adventures.
Hiking, fishing and exploring old gold country haunts and antiquing are just part of the fun.
Come and renew yourself!

In summary: Great property, secluded and quiet location, and wonderful host. We had a wonderful time at Serenity Central with my wife and two 5 year old twins. The location is off of I80, and in good proximity to Lake Tahoe (45mins) and other outdoor winter places (skiing, sledding, tubbing, etc). Geri was a wonderful and accommodating host. We had to actually reschedule last minute because of incoming bad weather, but it worked out wonderfully. I highly recommend this property. We would love to check out the area during the summer as well. Thanks for everything, Geri! -Jules
Property as advertised, beautiful location, very helpful owner/manager. Well-appointed, lots of stuff to do in area. Would repeat.
Loved the location in the little history town of Dutch Flat. Close enough to the amazing cross country skiing in Soda Springs. The place was roomy with large windows. The kitchen had everything you need.
We had a really nice stay in Dutch Flat among the peaceful pines! Walking up the hillside to the house we were greeted by a statue of St. Francis and a deer, a sure sign that we would enjoy this home. Bring a flashlight if you arrive after dark. Geri, the owner was super communicative and wanted to make sure we could find everything her home had to offer. It was very well stocked. We cooked every night and the stove and oven worked well. There were many interesting books to read and myriad of interesting knick-knacks to muse over. I enjoyed that personal touch. She told us where to find local hiking, etc. Midway into our trip, a fire broke out 8 mi away, so sadly we needed to pack up and leave early. Geri promptly refunded the nights we missed, due to evacuating. She did an awesome job making sure we were well cared for while there. Thanks for everyting Geri! MC ;)
Overall was very easy. A wonderful place to relax and escape to a quiet place. Awesome place to walk and just enjoy the scenery. The host was informative and hospitable. Definitely will come back :)
The place is lovely and quite. A perfect getaway in the woods, you will wake up to birds chirping and we enjoyed our morning coffee on the deck overlooking the forest. The kitchen is fully stocked and we enjoyed making dinner one night we also appreciated the living room with TV and board games. We did have to sweep when we arrived and the instructions for using the house and checking out our quite confusing. Simple bullet points on the handout would have been much easier. Overall a five out of five and we loved our stay.
We had a really nice weekend getaway at Serenity Central. Initially we were looking for somewhere to stay closer to Truckee/Tahoe Donner for a ski weekend, but couldn't find anything available & dog-friendly for the holiday weekend. Luckily, we found Serenity Central! Although there was no snow down in Dutch Flat, it was quick and easy (~30 mins) to drive up to Donner Pass (Sugarbowl, Royal Gorge, Boreal, Castle Peak, etc.) for a day of skiing. The house was very comfortable for our group of 2 couples, and Geri was a very accommodating host. We really appreciated being able to bring our dogs along, too. The kitchen was fairly well-equipped for a rental house, and the living room was very cozy for hanging out in the evenings.
This was a lovely comfortable home for our family to stay in, very accessible from the Bay Area by car, and close to the ski resort we went in.
Geri was great! Everything was communicated very clearly and was gracious enough to let us check in early and use whatever was there at the house. Very unique place and the poll was near by. Town was a short walk and the neighbors were awesome.
What an awesome place! My husband and I have never felt so relaxed. The energy in this home is so good and positive - we wouldn’t hesitate to stay again. A quiet neighborhood with lots of trees and a great view of the stars. A cool little historical town to explore too. Cozy - rejuvenating - wonderful. Thank you for having us!
