This one bedroom plus loft end unit with mountain and filtered lake views offers a private, quiet location. With room to sleep four guests, it’s perfect for a small family or romantic getaway. Located in the Carnelian Woods townhome complex in Carnelian Bay—make yourself at home in the North Tahoe vacation spot near everything!

You’ll feel refreshed after a vacation at this Relaxing Retreat! Inside or out, enjoy all the views—filtered lake, mountain, and forest—from your living room, balcony, and loft master suite.

Put your feet up and rest on the comfortable sofa while you watch TV by the cozy gas fireplace. Wi-Fi keeps you connected. Or go outside and take in views as you barbeque on the covered balcony, located off the living room.

The well-equipped kitchen has everything you need to prepare a hearty breakfast, a quick snack, or a home-cooked dinner and the dishwasher makes clean up a breeze. There is seating for two at the breakfast bar and four chairs at the dining table.

The washer and dryer are around the corner, along with a half bath. The main-level bedroom has a trundle bed—two twins—with linens to keep your dreamers snug all night.

Upstairs on the loft, the master suite has a comfortable queen bed and a full bathroom with plenty of bath linens. This is a great vantage point to admire the views from your Relaxing Retreat!

When you’re ready to venture outside, keep everyone entertained in 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.

Your home away from home 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. Pool and Tennis open summer only. Amenity access never guaranteed. Please check website for availability: carnelianwoodsorg

    Lovely cozy cabin. From the porch you could actually see Lake Tahoe on a clear day. You have to drive to the community hot tub (also includes a game room and sauna) but we didn’t mind.

    This unit is comfortable for 3 adults. There is a lovely lake view from the balcony. The recreation center is very nice. Walking there with much swim equipment would be inconvenient.

    Check-in was smooth and hassle-free, with clear and timely communication throughout the process. The space was spotless, airy, and perfectly sized—ideal for the two of us, and it would easily accommodate a family of four.The kitchen was well-equipped with everything we needed, including a coffee maker, dishes, silverware, and a spacious refrigerator. The Wi-Fi worked flawlessly for streaming Netflix and casual browsing.One of our favorite parts was sleeping with the windows open, surrounded by the peaceful trees of and near Lake Tahoe. It created the calm, relaxing atmosphere we were hoping for—exactly what we needed to recharge.

    The space was incredibly quiet and cozy, perfect for unwinding after a day on the slopes. It was warm and inviting, making it easy to relax. The location was unbeatable—just a short drive to ski resorts which made getting to and from the slopes so convenient. Overall, it was a great place to stay, and I’d definitely recommend it to anyone looking for a peaceful, comfortable spot.

The area is not as developed as Tahoe City or Incline Village, but that’s why I like staying here.

Overall, I do not recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: The property is OK, but for the price you can get better locations around Lake Tahoe. I would not rent the property again.

    Loved staying here. It was my partner and so it worked out great. It’s a loft with a twin bed in the second bedroom and a pullout couch. The loft had a queen bed and master bathroom. Lovely area and close to everything. We have a slight view of the lake from our balcony.

    Condo was very clean especially the kitchen and bathrooms. However it needs a new paint job and a little updating in the bathrooms. Furniture very comfortable. Could use a fan either from the ceiling in loft bedroom. This June it was very hot and a fan would have been lovely. Also the noise from both bath fans was very annoying. It came on every time you turn on the bathroom light. I'm sure this can be fixed.
