Unlike a lot of homes in Truckee, this home has a flat street, driveway, and EASY entryway, *without* a huge flight of stairs leading up to the home. This allows simple access year round without having to shovel stairs to get into the home, or haul groceries up big flights of stairs.
Winter in Tahoe is icy and snowy! Strongly recommend AWD vehicles during winter months, and keeping an eye on the weather.
The street and driveway both get plowed. The driveway accomodates 3 cars.
The cabin is heated and features a kitchen and a balcony, and there's space to spread out with 2 bedrooms and a dining area. Other standard amenities include a washing machine, a coffee maker, and an ironing board.
