Proof that great things can come in small packages! This petite retreat offers 1 bed + loft and 1 bath accented with classic knotty pine interior, high ceilings, and true Tahoe Charm. Spacious loft makes a great primary escape with big windows for viewing the forest, peeks of the lake and skylights for stargazing. Enjoy a private back deck for woodsy enjoyment of the national forest parcel behind. Great sun exposure and easy proximity to restaurants, mini golf, and the shores of lake Tahoe less than 1/4 mile away. This spot is a perfect vacation getaway or starter home. Level access and plenty of parking and a large storage enclosure for seasonal toys and gear. Dreams happen here!
