Spring Discounted rates! Escape and explore America's year-round playground, the Lake Tahoe Basin. Explore so much right from the front door of your own Tahoe getaway at Muskwaki Pines, situated off the beaten path, yet conveniently close to all that Tahoe has to offer. Perfect for those traveling with their four-legged friends.

When privacy, tranquility, and getting back to nature are the qualities you are searching for in your next getaway, then look no further. From the moment you step through the entry door, you will feel that you have found your mountain home away from home. Muskwaki Pines is nestled in one of South Shore Lake Tahoe’s best kept secret neighborhoods. No crowds, no traffic, no noise, a peaceful setting.

During the winter and spring months, explore the Upper Truckee River meadow on snowshoes or skinny skis. Right out the front door, this hidden jewel of natural beauty and tranquility is used primarily by neighborhood locals. Or head off to one or all of the three world class ski resorts nearby: Heavenly 15 minutes, Sierra-at-Tahoe 20 minutes, or Kirkwood, 30 minutes.

Conveniently tucked off of Pioneer Trail, this quiet area fronts the Upper Truckee River and meadow, which is a ten-minute walk from the house. The home’s peaceful setting has meadow, forest and mountain views. There is open space surrounding the property with both forest and meadow. Even though it is just fifteen minutes in any direction to Lake Tahoe’s attractions, you may not want to leave. Do not be surprised to see bears, coyotes, migratory birds, and even an occasional raccoon cruising the area.

Of course, nothing compares to Tahoe summers and winters. But , do not overlook the shoulder seasons of spring and fall, our personal favorite times of year. With spring brings the snow melt when the rivers and creeks are brimming and the meadows are verdant with grasses and wildflowers. The birds are on their migratory path north. In the fall months, the crowds have left, the weather is a little cooler. The hiking and biking trails are at their best. The fall colors start popping. Those migratory birds are now stopping in Tahoe on their way south. There is a special sense of calm during this time of year.

Not to be overlooked are the night skies. As the city of South Lake Tahoe is obscured by forest and elevations, there is minimal light pollution. The hot tub is the perfect spot from which to gaze up at our amazing universe.
