Bright and airy, tucked into the pines at Northstar, Sierra makes a Tahoe trip feel easy from the moment you unlock the door. A stone-trimmed fireplace anchors the living room, the kitchen has real space to work in with a breakfast bar alongside it, and two bedrooms keep the sleeping simple --- a king in the primary, a queen in the second, two full bathrooms so no one's waiting their turn on a powder morning. Out on the deck it's pines, ridgelines, and that high-altitude quiet, and a ski locker by the entry means boots and boards have a home that isn't the living room floor.
When the snow's in, you can ski out from the neighborhood, and a free shuttle loops the area to the lifts and The Village at Northstar --- outdoor ice rink, shops and restaurants around the plaza, and the Big Springs Express Gondola running up the mountain. Come summer the same terrain becomes a lift-served bike park and a web of hiking trails, and guests have access to the Northstar Property Owners Association Recreation Center for pools, hot tubs, saunas, a fitness center, and seasonal tennis. Best of all, you're sitting almost exactly between Historic Downtown Truckee and the north shore of Lake Tahoe --- fifteen minutes either way to brick-front main streets and independent shops, or to Kings Beach and a day on the sand.
Each home is provided with 2 guest passes which allow exclusive access to the Northstar Resort Community (a nominal charge may apply for some activities). This entails very easy access to the slopes (free shuttle available throughout the neighborhood), as well as, other amenities provided through Northstar Property Owners Association (pool, spa, tennis, fitness center).

Situated in the snowy Sierra Nevada Mountain range straddling the border between California and Nevada, Lake Tahoe offers stunning panoramic scenery and year-round adventure. Visitors flock here especially to ski and snowboard on dramatic slopes that seem to fall into the abyss of the lake's cobalt blue water. Whether you're looking for a day in the mountains or a booze cruise on the lake, you can have it all in Tahoe.
