Alpine Retreat by Hauserman Rentals

// This home is a short term rental only \\

**DOGS CONSIDERED**
This beautiful home is located in gorgeous Ward Valley, in breathtaking surroundings. The setting is unlike any other Tahoe experience; amazingly secluded with greenbelt and mountains all around, on the backside of Alpine Meadows and set in dense Tahoe National Forest area. A terrific year-round spot, this home makes your Tahoe visit feel special and unique.

Great for skiers: This property is a five-minute walk to Alpine Meadows’ Sherwood Express chair lift. (Important note: You MUST either have a season pass or 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. The Sherwood chair may not be open, depending upon snow conditions.)
Great for hikers: There's boundless hiking access directly from house, including Tahoe Rim Trail and Pacific Crest Trail.
Great for families: Lots of room for the kids to play and highchair and Pack-n-Play available upon request.

Each bedroom features something special: The Queen bedroom located on the 1st level has a wonderful valley view of Lake Tahoe. Also on the 1st level, the west bedroom offers two twin beds, a table and chairs and doors out to the hot tub with views overlooking the valley. The third bedroom on the 1st level, the west Queen bedroom has a private entrance connected to the front stoop and covered stairs that lead to driveway/garage. The Queen master bedroom, located on the 2nd level of the home, provides lovely views of Twin Peaks.

The second floor offers a fully equipped kitchen and two dining areas. Just off of the kitchen, the living area has cozy plush furnishings, a high definition smart TV, a Blu-Ray DVD player, and satellite broadband internet. YouTube TV and Netflix are provided; guests can access all other streaming services with an account. The second level also has a full bathroom off of living/dining/kitchen areas.

The sunny deck offers amazing views, a propane BBQ, and deck furniture for outdoor dining during the summer months. Use of the 2 car garage is included.

*PLEASE NOTE: The loft above the kitchen is accessed by a ladder, which is NOT TECHNICALLY PART OF THE RENTAL: USE AT YOUR OWN RISK. There are many stairs between the driveway and the front door at this home. Call us if you need more information about access to the property.

Spectacular property in a spectacular location

This property is excellent - well maintained, well laid out, great light and has an awesome mud room in the entry way. Equally excellent is the location - so beautiful, and with an unexpected direct view of Lake Tahoe from the deck. Property group who manages the property were responsive, gracious and very accommodating. We will be back.

Alpine retreat getaway

Loved this stay in the mountains with beautiful views of Lake Tahoe. House was perfect for 8 of us (2 families). Plenty of space and a cozy main room to hangout. Really enjoyed that the house was set away from the lake and ski resort. It felt very isolated and quiet with a quick walk to be in the forest. Convenient drive to get to Palisades or Tahoe city for skiing and dining. Seamless check in and overall experience. Would highly recommend!

Beautiful location

We stayed here with 2 families with teenagers on ski trip. Loved the home and location. Nicely appointed house in remote great secluded location. Only problem was not enough snow to have back side open so had to drive all the way to front side. Beware this takes 40 minutes! Would love to come back when more snow!

GREAT SPOT

We had a wonderful stay at this house as it was near the Sherwood Lift even though it is in a remote neighborhood far from the Alpine resort itself. With the new gondola from Alpine to Pallisades it was fun to access the two resorts from the lift down the street. Great kitchen, bedrooms and loft space and a fun main area and deck. Hot tub was great to have as well. Loved this home and will definitely return.

Great cabin outside of Tahoe City - Great access to Alpine Meadows

A nice, big cabin that can comfortably fit 8-10. Incredible access to the backside of Alpine Meadows. Not quite ski in/ski out, but an easy walk to the end of the road to get to the Sherwood express lift. A dream for a group with folks focused on skiing. Some other highlights: -Great hot tub -Good amount of bathrooms -Nicely appointed kitchen. Nothing super fancy, but really practical and usable. We cooked some great meals. -Good access to outdoor areas (lower patio with hot tub, upper deck with grill and views) -oh yeah did I mention the view. Can see beautifully down the valley and a small piece of the lake. Fantastic -easy to work with the property manager. They were communicative, well prepared, and professional Some things to be aware of: -15 minute drive into town. If your trying to be walkable to the “downtown” area, maybe not the right fit -if the Sherwood lift wasn’t open, would be more of a challenge to get to the ski base area, would need to drive 30 mins and park -Similar with many houses around Tahoe, lots of stairs. Might be hard for someone who struggles with stairs, although there is a master on the main floor Overall fantastic. Would book again!

Christmas Family Vacation

Our stay was absolutely magical. I can’t say enough about this lovely home. It was spacious but also felt very cozy. The bedrooms were all quiet lovely with soft pillow tops and warm comforters. We were thrilled to find the garage well stocked with firewood and the kitchen was also quite well equipped. And we had a stunning view of the lake from the balcony. Best of all was the location. Our sons could walk up the street and catch the Sherwood Express chair lift. They went snowboarding almost every day 😊.

Ward Valley is amazingly beautiful

Located near Tahoe City, the property is nestled in the beautiful and remote Ward Valley with a view of Lake Tahoe in the distance. This house is a 5 minute walk to the Sherwood lift on the backside of Alpine Meadows. When there is enough snow to open the backside, this is an amazing spot for skiiers. Would definitely come back.
