A-Frame w/Game Room, Close to Downtown, Mtn Views
🌲 Cozy A-Frame with wood-burning fireplace 🌲 Centrally located for shopping or exploring downtown Truckee 🏔️ Stunning mountain views 🌲 Game Room with Hoop Fever, Air Hockey, Shuffleboard & Foosball 🏔️ 15 mins to Northstar Ski Resort 🚴♂️ Close to Truckee River
Perched above the Truckee River with views of the Carson Range, Mount Rose, and Northstar, this classic A-Frame cabin does something most mountain rentals can't. It delivers genuine rustic charm without asking you to give up a single comfort. Beautiful wood finishes, a wall of windows framing the peaks, a wood-burning fireplace, and a full game room waiting in the garage. This is the mountain cabin people actually picture when they start dreaming about Truckee.
Located in the quiet Olympic Heights neighborhood, you are minutes from downtown Truckee, Donner Lake, Northstar, Sugar Bowl, and Palisades Tahoe. Everything is close. Nothing feels crowded.
THE VIEW AND MAIN LIVING SPACE The great room earns its name. An expansive wall of windows pulls the Carson Range, Mount Rose, and Northstar directly into the living space, filling the room with light and scenery from morning through sunset. A wood-burning fireplace anchors it all and the kind that makes a cold Truckee night feel exactly right.
Flow from here into the dining room and fully equipped kitchen, or step out to the lower patio for a morning coffee with the mountains as your backdrop.
✓ Wood-burning fireplace ✓ 65" Smart TV with streaming services ✓ Dining table with seating for 8 ✓ Kitchen island bar with seating for 4 ✓ Views of Carson Range, Mount Rose and Northstar
UPPER DECK AND OUTDOOR SPACES The upper deck is the crown of this cabin. Protected from the elements and perched above the river, it is the perfect spot for morning coffee, afternoon reading, or a glass of wine as the light fades over the peaks.
The lower patio offers a more tucked-in setting with Adirondack chairs, an umbrella, and a gas BBQ for easy outdoor dining.
✓ Upper deck with panoramic mountain views ✓ Gas BBQ on lower patio ✓ Adirondack chairs and umbrella
Note: Patio furniture available May through October, weather permitting.
GAME ROOM: FOUR GAMES, ZERO BOREDOM The converted garage is a legitimate game room and not an afterthought. Hoop Fever, Foosball, Shuffleboard, and Air Hockey under one roof means there is always something going on, whatever the weather outside. Rainy afternoon? Perfect.

✓ Hoop Fever ✓ Foosball ✓ Shuffleboard ✓ Air Hockey

GOOD TO KNOW The home is exclusively yours for your entire stay. No shared spaces, no interruptions. Come and go as you please.
