Winter Driving
Many highways, access roads and/or driveways are steep in Tahoe/Truckee and may be icy in the winter. To ensure your safety, it is critical that during November 1st - April 30th brakes, windshield wipers, defroster, heater and exhaust system are in top condition. Tires need to be properly inflated and the tread must be in excellent condition. Always carry tire chains, even if driving an AWD/4WD vehicle.

Summer Patio Furniture
Patio furniture is available for your use during summer months only. All outdoor tables, chairs and loungers are put into storage in the fall, in order to protect the furnishings from winter weather. Barbecue grills, however, do remain outside for your enjoyment.

Be Bear Aware
Black bears are very common in this area and have become habituated to human food and garbage. Because bears no longer have a strong fear of humans, you may encounter bears during your spring, summer and fall stays. Feeding bears is illegal. Leaving food outside, trash accessible, or doors and windows unlocked is likely to cause significant property damage to homes and to vehicles. Please take a moment to learn how to be Bear Aware, so that we can continue to live in harmony with our wildlife.

Office Holiday Hours
The TLUXP office is closed on New Year’s Day, July 4th, Thanksgiving, and Christmas. Therefore, we are unable to accommodate check-ins and check-outs on these dates. Thank you for understanding.

Escape to this beautiful luxury retreat tucked among the towering pines of Tahoe Vista, where forest stillness, the brilliant blue waters of Lake Tahoe, and the boundless recreation of North Lake Tahoe come together. Surrounded by Tahoe National Forest, this spacious mountain home offers a rare sense of seclusion while remaining close to the lake, beaches, restaurants, ski resorts, and year-round activities of the North Shore. Sugar pines, ponderosa pines, and Jeffrey pines frame the home, creating a peaceful woodland atmosphere. Wake to sunlight filtering through the branches, listen for chickadees and Steller's jays, and begin each morning with the calm of the Sierra Nevada.

The forest isn't just something to admire, the trails lead directly from In the Wild Woods into the surrounding landscape, inviting guests to explore on a morning hike or a full day of mountain adventure. Nearby North Tahoe Regional Park, within hiking distance, adds hiking and mountain-biking trails, tennis and pickleball, disc golf, a children's playground, expansive playing fields, and the Tahoe Treetop Adventure Course. In winter, the park's trails become a beautiful setting for cross-country skiing and snowshoeing.

Inside, more than 3,000 square feet of thoughtfully designed living space is built for gathering and relaxing. The main living area sits upstairs with forested views, soaring vaulted ceilings, polished wood beams, and floor-to-ceiling windows which draw in natural light and frame the surrounding pines. Settle onto the sofas by the gas fireplace and recount the days adventures, grab a book and cozy up on oversized chairs by the window or challenge each other to a game of foosball in this contemporary mountain lodge. The open layout lets living, dining, and kitchen spaces flow together nicely. Nothing is more delightful than a large breakfast at the farm table seating 10 comfortably before a morning at the lake or a celebratory dinner after a day at the ski resort.

With four bedrooms across two levels, the home comfortably sleeps up to 10 guests, balancing shared gathering space with private places to recharge. The upstairs primary suite features a king bed plus a twin sleeper sofa. Two additional bedrooms on the entry level each offer king beds, ideal for couples traveling together. The large lower level family room is ideal for the kids' to enjoy their own space along with the fourth bedroom with a twin-over-queen bunk bed that kids will love.

Outdoor living is just as appealing. Step onto the back deck to fire up the barbecue, relax with a drink, or simply listen to the forest. As evening settles in, slip into the private hot tub beneath the pines to soothe tired muscles after hiking, skiing, or paddling. In warmer months, take the home's stand-up paddleboards to the shoreline, spend an afternoon at a nearby beach, or explore the charming communities of Tahoe Vista, Kings Beach, Carnelian Bay, and Tahoe City for waterfront dining, coffee shops, and boutiques. Despite its peaceful forest setting, In the Wild Woods keeps guests close to everything that makes North Lake Tahoe extraordinary, hike beneath the pines in the morning, paddle the lake in the afternoon, and dine in Tahoe City or Kings Beach by evening. More than just a place to stay, In the Wild Woods offers towering trees outside the window, mountain air on the deck, adventure just beyond the door, and quiet evenings under the stars, the quintessential Tahoe experience.
