About this property

Peaceful Cottage Between Lake Tahoe & Sacramento

Ponderosa Pines Cottage of the Sierra Nevada Foothills

COVID Safe! We are OPEN and are following the CDC guidelines for vacation rental units (as well as Placer County guidelines for cleaning.) BOOK WITH CONFIDENCE!

Stay among the Ponderosa Pines, seemingly far, far from civilization, yet you’re only 2 minutes from Interstate 80 freeway, and only 45 minutes from the state capitol and an hour from Lake Tahoe.

Newly renovated from roof to the hardwood floors, this charming cottage will offer comfort, peace and tranquility, convenience and a bit of that laid-back country vibe.

Minutes close to historic gold country where the gold rush exploded back in the mid 1800s, fishing, skiing in the winter, river rafting in the summer, zip line tours, boating, wineries and so much more. This cottage will keep you comfy while you rest up, in between all the fun adventures you will have in the area. And, there is plenty of wildlife passing right outside your windows, such as deer, foxes, raccoons, wild turkeys, plenty of birds, squirrels, along with the occasional bear.

About the host

Hosted by Patty or Rene

Host profile image
My husband and I are retired now and recently moved to the area of Colfax. Both of us being amateur landscape photographers makes this area the perfect location. We love the quiet and peaceful life here which makes it possible to garden edible and flowering plants. Sharing this peaceful property with guests who appreciate nature is our goal. Being grateful everyday for good friends and happy moments is what we love.

Why they chose this property

This is the best neighborhood, quiet and rural. The minute we saw this property we knew we had to buy it. It is like being on vacation everyday here. There are so many wild animals all year round and wildflowers all Spring and Summer.

What makes this property unique

Mature forest trees and two meadows. Every season some tree or plant blooms or leafs-out changing the look 4 times a year. Our climate is very neutral ranging from high 90's in the summer and low 30's in the winter. If you want to see really deep snow in the Winter Lake Tahoe and the surrounding ski areas are just an hour away, or in the Summer we have the American and Bear rivers and Lake Tahoe for all your water sports or even gold panning.
