Snowglobe

You’ll feel like you’re in the center of a snow globe when the snowflakes are gently falling around this beautiful cabin. The soaring windows provide amazing views of the surrounding forest, drifting snow or shimmering stars. Cheerily decorated with pops of vibrant color throughout, this wonderful home is located in the Alpine Peaks neighborhood on Lake Tahoe’s West Shore and makes a great year-round destination. In winter, hop on the Sherwood Chair* at the back side of Alpine Meadows ski resort with your car parked nearby at the private HOA lot. In summer, enjoy the tennis courts which are a mere 3 minute walk away or head out for a stunningly scenic hike in the surrounding mountains. Trailheads for the famous Tahoe Rim Trail and spectacular Paige Meadows are easily accessible. Enter on the bottom floor of this tri-level home to find the recreation room and laundry facilities. The recreation room has a flat screen TV with DirectTV satellite, streaming on Apple TV, BluRay DVD, plus Game Cube and PS3; table for games; cushy sectional couch; separate memory foam Queen sofa sleeper; and a full bathroom. Mid-level provides the living room with wood fireplace, Sonos sound system and those great big windows; dining area with expanding table; well-equipped kitchen; bedroom with Double bed; the Kids’ bedroom with one Twin bed and a set of Twin bunkbeds; and full guest bathroom in the hall. The living room is stocked with lots of games, puzzles and books, including local trail and nature guides. Exterior deck offers a gas grill for use during summer. Up one more level to the spacious Queen master bedroom with the sonos sound system and beautiful bathroom with jetted tub and separate shower. One side of a two car garage is available, along with 2 spaces on the paved driveway. Although the Alpine Peaks area is delightfully secluded a few miles up Ward Canyon, it’s still conveniently close to Sunnyside, Tahoe City and all the awesome adventures the West Shore offers. Snow Globe is the perfect all-season retreat for up to eight guests and one well-behaved dog. Heated floors throughout keep you toasty warm, whatever the weather may be. *Important note: You MUST purchase ski lift tickets in advance at the main lodge at the front side of Alpine Meadows; tickets are not for sale at the Sherwood Chair. | Chains or snow tires are often required in winter.
