Hike and bike on trails leading to Sugar Pine Point, Bliss, and Emerald Bay State Parks with beaches, national forest, and the Desolation Wilderness. A meandering paved bike path makes its way to TahoeCity, down the Truckee River all the way to Squaw Valley. The house is on a quiet lane far from the main road, and bikes can be ridden there well away from traffic. Sugar Pine State Park also has tennis courts. Launch your boat in Homewood 5 minutes away, or rent boats nearby in Tahoe City or Meeks Bay. The golf course in Tahoe City is 7 miles away. Many other golf courses are nearby.

In the winter, alpine skiing and snow boarding are just five minutes away at Homewood Mountain Resort, known for its warm hospitality, groomed runs and spectacular lake views from its 56 runs. Go cross country skiing and snowshoeing on machine groomed trails near the house, and on the track used in the 1960 Winter Olympics in Sugar Pine Point Park. Call up our massage therapist for a private treatment at the house. Finish up with a soak in the bubbling hot tub by the lake!
