Timberline by AvantStay | Stunning Chalet Cabin w/ Hot Tub & Home Theater!

Welcome to Timberline, an AvantStay home!

Soaring vaulted windows, modern architectural design, and a spacious deck surrounded by trees transform this moody, chalet-style home into an elevated mountain escape. Overflowing with style, Timberline also comes with a unique suite of amenities sure to keep your entire group entertained no matter how long you stay. Enjoy the fresh air while soaking in the hot tub, or gather around the firepit for a stargazing experience you won’t find anywhere else. The deck has an outdoor dining table and seating area with treetop views, which can also be seen from the massive windows which let natural light flood inside. Along with five chic bedrooms and six contemporary bathrooms, you can spread out between the rec room (with a pool table), the theater room (with a projector screen and theater seating), and the upstairs common area. Minutes from the shores of Lake Tahoe, there’s enough space, entertainment, and style here for everyone!

Overall we had a great stay. Some hiccups but Avantstay made the overall stay better. They were very communicative and I felt like I always had someone there to help. The home does need updates but overall good for a bigger group.

New Years Family Ski Trip

The house was located in a great neighborhood with a 20 min drive to Palisades ski resort. Overall the house was nice, but its ready for some updating. My biggest complaint was the wifi, it would come and go and the TV Theater room never worked because of it. We also cooked often, but sadly the cookware was in bad shape. If they fix the wifi and freshen up the house furniture and cookware it would be a much better property and inline with the rate charged.

Majestic Cabin

The cabin was awesome for our group. However being a luxury cabin there were certain elements that were not to standard given the price to stay here. All showers are backed up, game room and theater room needs a refresh, thrashed. Dishwasher was disgusting, put or order and had mold growing in it. Other then that, we enjoyed our stay.
