Mountain Rustic Ski House Tahoe-Reno Mt Rose-Snow Resort 1.5 Miles

We have come Skiing from San Diego, CA to Mt Rose for many years and loved it. So, when we learned of the opportunity to buy this home so close to the Ski Resort, we jumped at it. This is a one of a kind Home hidden in the Mountains above Lake Tahoe off the Mt Rose Hwy 431 with views to Reno, a short distance up an unpaved road about 200 yards from Main Hwy and only 1.5 miles to Mt Rose Ski Area. At about 7600 feet, there it is always nice temperature on the hot Reno Summer Days. Besides being a wonderful vintage home, the views are incredible. Did I say the Views from this home are incredible. Well it is certainly worth mentioning more than once. This house was built in 1950 by the first Ski Area Developer in all the Sierras. We are the proud new owners, and everyone tells us that this is the best built house anywhere around. We love it and want to share it. The first renters said they loved it and felt like they were in a museum. I would not call this a Luxury Home, but a very comfortable place to stay. One really feels at home at our home in the mountains. The Home is located right next to Sky Tavern Ski Area, which the builder of this home also Built. There is so much history for the area and Ski resort. Sky Tavern was the first Ski resort in all of the Sierras. We Love to speak to future guests. During and right after winter storms you may need 4 wheel drive and/or chains to reach our parking. There is parking below about 200 yards near the main highway where you can park and walk up. Our private road is not always cleared regularly after a large snow storm, and many of the people who live on the road ( just 10 houses) leave their cars below by the main highway during large storms. Situated half way between Incline Village, Lake Tahoe and downtown Reno, NV is Sky Tavern. A unique mountain top community that’s surrounded by wilderness and is only 1.5 miles from Mount Rose Ski Area.

Our home is a comfortable and spacious home designed for those looking to enjoy a mountain home with easy access to skiing, hiking, mountain biking or everything Reno and Tahoe have to offer.

The home has a dramatic fireplace in the living room on the main level, along with the kitchen, master bedroom, a full bathroom, and a bedroom with a great Queen platform bed with the newest type memory foam Mattress.

Downstairs, you will find 2 bedrooms & the Den bedroom plus a full Bath Room.
The house is very comfortable but not “fancy”. Its warm and cozy during the winter and is the perfect home base for ski days at Mt Rose or exploring the greater Reno/Tahoe area.

The house is less than 25 minute drive from Reno-Tahoe International Airport and downtown Reno. It’s 20 minutes to Incline Village and Lake Tahoe .

Mountain Rustic
Great place with wonderful views! We stayed three nights skiing Mt. Rose during our stay. Check in was super easy, talked with the owner and had no issues. We were even allowed to check in early. The house was very clean with everything working and items we needed. The house has older furniture, but it was like going back in time, we even played an 8 track for music at night. Very cool and unique property. Curtis who owns the local ski shop just next door helped out with rentals and told us the history of the area. Everyone was super nice!

Great Place for the Family
The host was more than kind and welcoming. We were having issues with the booking and the host helped us greatly. There’s a sledding place nearby for kids and it was perfect for the whole family. I would love to come again !

Great city views
Large older home with lots of beds. Kitchen well stocked. Living room had comfortable recliners & couch with big screen TV. Easy to find location, just off hwy. Appreciate being able to take my dogs with me. Easy drive to Reno, Virginia City, or other way to Incline. Big window in LR faces Reno with views that get better at night when city is lit up!
