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. Kids need to burn energy after a day on the slopes? Also perfect.
✓ Hoop Fever ✓ Foosball ✓ Shuffleboard ✓ Air Hockey
BEDROOMS: COZY, COMFORTABLE, VIEWS INCLUDED Two bedrooms plus a bonus room give this cabin serious flexibility for families and mixed groups. The primary suite is on the main level for easy access, while the upper floor has a Jack and Jill bathroom shared between the guest bedroom and bonus room.
Primary Suite (Main Floor): Queen bed, twin bed, trundle bed, 55" Smart TV, en-suite bathroom with walk-in shower and dual vanities Bedroom 2 (Upper Floor): Queen bed, access to upper deck, Jack and Jill bathroom Bonus Room (Upper Floor): Two twin beds, two trundle beds, access to Bedroom 2 and Jack and Jill bathroom
The upper living area is its own retreat as well, with a 55" Smart TV, card table, and sofa bed. Great for a movie night separate from the main floor.
The home also includes a full bathroom on the main level and an in-unit washer and dryer.
Note: Maximum occupancy is 6 guests, excluding children under 12.
KITCHEN AND DINING The well-appointed kitchen features granite countertops, stainless steel appliances, and everything needed for real home cooking. Whether it is a big group breakfast before the lifts open or a slow dinner after a long day on the trails, this kitchen handles it comfortably.

LOCATION: OLYMPIC HEIGHTS, TRUCKEE Olympic Heights is one of Truckee's most peaceful residential neighborhoods, sitting above the Truckee River with quick access to everything without any of the noise. Downtown Truckee, Donner Lake, and multiple ski resorts are all within easy reach.
Nearby Highlights: 4.4 miles: Downtown Truckee and Bar of America 7.1 miles: The Village at Northstar (approx. 15-minute drive) 12 miles: Kings Beach 15.5 miles: Palisades Tahoe 19.7 miles: Diamond Peak Ski Resort 24.6 miles: Homewood Mountain Resort
Nearby Golf: 3.4 miles: Ponderosa Golf Course 8.6 miles: Coyote Moon Golf Course 11.8 miles: Old Brockway Golf Course 14.8 miles: The Links at Everline 19 miles: Tahoe City Golf Course
GOOD TO KNOW The home is exclusively yours for your entire stay. No shared spaces, no interruptions. Come and go as you please.
Winter Access: A 4WD vehicle and chains may be required during or after a storm. Northstar is about a 10-minute drive, so you will be glad you came prepared. Parking: Up to 3 vehicles in the driveway. Garage is not available for parking. No A/C, but ceiling fans in every room plus window fans, tower fans, and cooler nighttime temps keep things comfortable year-round. No smoking anywhere on the property. No open flames. Tahoe's forests are highly fire-prone. No parties, events or commercial shoots. We keep things low-key. Shoes off indoors, please. Two floors. Stairs are part of the charm. Cancellations: Our policy is firm. We strongly recommend travel insurance for weather, road closures or air quality events.
Tahoe is wild and wonderful, and occasionally unpredictable. Thanks in advance for your patience if nature has other plans. We're thrilled to have you. Take care of this place, and it'll take care of you.
