About this house rental

Quiet Home in the Sierra Nevada Foothills. Enjoy your stay in this comfortable home, in the heavily wooded, small town of Alta, CA. Just a 5 minute drive, is a beautiful community pool in Dutch Flat. Fishing is great at near by lakes such as Fuller, Rollins and Spalding. Emerald Pools are a must visit, for hiking and swimming in the river. Ski resorts are just 30 min East on hwy 80. Tahoe is 60 minutes and Truckee is 35 minutes. Historic Colfax is also 15 minutes away on I80. Relax next to a cozy fire and read a book in this quiet home. We hope you will enjoy this peaceful mountain hideaway located on the edge of the Tahoe National Forrest.

********SNOW WARNING********
Seasonal unpredictable inclement weather would often require snow chains to get to this property. We are located above the snow line. MUD AND SNOW TIRES WITH ALL WHEEL DRIVE OR 4 WHEEL DRIVE VEHICLES ARE OFTEN REQUIRED BY CHP AND CALTRANS ON I80. BETWEEN THANKSGIVING AND MEMORIAL DAY UNPREDICTABLE AMOUNTS OF SNOW MAKE IT CHALLENGING TO GET TO THIS PROPERTY AND ALSO UP THE STEEP DRIVEWAY WITHOUT CHAINS.
We will work with the proper equipment to remove snow on the driveway prior to and during your stay as necessary. Placer County works to clear the local roads during these conditions.

Overall, excellent. We stayed 2 nights in winter. Roads were clear. A few other homes in sight but strong sense of privacy. Heating and cooking were good. Good tmobile data reception. Didnt try streaming. TV with DVD player and HDMI input. Driveway is between Bonnynook Rd intersection and american flag. Home is very clean and well equipped for your stay. Hosts are very accommodating and friendly. Top rating.

This house is awesome, has all the accomodations you could ask for. Close to snow play areas, we also had snow around the house. Sofa in the living room is super comfortable! Lots of parking and also there is a carport! My kids loved the house, especially looking for it at night!

Amazing place it is. Amazing people(humans) at heart & at action. if you are looking for a digital detox, this is the place. Strongly recommend. We had a good time with familily. 4 Adults - 3 kids Some suggestions. -------------------------- Picture of entrance view - will make it easy to identify once you enter the property. Can have Wi-Fi/Internet - Not an option if anyone needs to connect to work as the Cell Phone reception at location doesn't help. Can have an upgraded media player (not just a DVD player) Beddings - Beds can be Queen - not comfortable when you are 180 LBS - LOL. - Additional mattresses & Pillows can help ad the couch is an amazing recliner and makes it uncomfortable to sleep.

We were mostly gone during the day, but found it to be very comfortable and clean. There was a pretty view of the forest from the front room.

I was here for a few days, enjoying the seclusion and beauty of the foothills. The house is very well appointed, super clean, and they have thought of just about everything. It was very nice to arrive and find a few essentials waiting for me such as coffee, snacks, and even fresh eggs in the fridge! Great hosts and a great property! Oh yeah, Johnny was incredibly responsive any time I had an issue whether big or small.
