The Great Escape_4 Floor, Hot Tub, Theater, Arcades, Sauna & Yoga Room, Heated Floors + Walk to Park

Sure to meet the high standards of the most discerning luxury travelers, this newly remodeled and truly exquisite 3,527 sq. ft. 4 story home offers you a taste of the high life from top to bottom with its progressive architecture, top of the line furnishings, luxury décor, over-the-top amenities, and overall impeccable attention to detail throughout that combined, leaves nothing further to be desired. Our Prime Location just behind Donner Pass Rd also allows you to walk to Meadow Park & plenty of Truckee's main stores and restaurants in 10 minutes or less! With so much to offer, there's no better way to describe how this is the perfect & extravagant vacation home that has it all, unless we take a moment to delve into the fine details and Grandeur floor by floor!

*Bottom Floor:

Shuffleboard Table, (3) Arcades, NES, SNES, PlayStation, PlayStation 4, and a Theater with a 120 Inch Projection Screen and Overhead HD 4K Projector, Surround Sound, and is a Roku Smart TV. (Straight forward TV Instructions Provided). Make use of the Kitchenette with a Mini Fridge, resting 1 of 3 SONOS WIFI Speakers (App Instructions Included) and a WIFI Booster. Choose to Workout, or Relax in our Yoga Room with provided Mats, Weights, Heated Floors, Bluetooth speaker, and a Full Sauna (Dry or Wet Stone) with a Large Shower to rise off. Instructions are provided for the proper use of the Sauna to ensure a safe sweat, including its desired settings, and 8 different lighting options for ambiance. Next to these 2 rooms at the bottom level, there is a room with twin couch if needed, and next to that is also a King Bedroom downstairs (Bedroom #6) with a tower oscillating fan for warm summers, a space heater for extra Winter comfort, a smart TV, GRACO Pack & Play #1, and of course a very comfortable mattress, down comforter and duvet cover inclusive of plush pillows allowing for your deep sleep. This room also has a 2nd kitchenette with fridge, plus a 2nd washer and dryer, pub table, and full bathroom. Know that this kitchen and bathroom also has adjustable temperature heated flooring for your comfort, and even a private side door entrance that takes you out to the right exterior of the home where the shed is, allowing you to head up to the garage and front of the house or left to the back deck and hot tub.

You will be delighted to see the shuffleboard table sanded and sprayed to perfection upon your arrival, ready for friendly competition, and the 3 arcades if you were curious are as follows. 1) Championship Addition Street Fighter with 4 versions of the game and WIFI capability for online competition, as well as another 8 entirely different games built in to cover all bases. 2) A thrilling compilation of 3 classic driving games, where you feel the thrill by using a steering wheel, manual gear changes, and use of both gas and break peddles. 3) Who doesn't enjoy an interactive shooting game? Dream Buck Hunter! With a wide variety of environments, you will have a Blast (pun intended) when you are pumping the toy shot gun and shooting at the screen targets including moving bucks, while trying to avoid the doe and other animals. Please play carefully.

*Middle Floor (Main):

Living Room, Dining Room, Kitchen with Island, Bar Top, 2 Fireplaces, Garage, Shared Bathroom, Laundry Room, and 2 Doors to access the backyard. Beginning with the Living Room, you will find the Honeywell Thermostat which will be set to a comforting 68 degrees upon arrival during Winter, but we encourage you to set your desired comfort setting. Here you may gather around the fireplace, and in front of the 65” Smart TV, either on the wrap around couch or in the two chairs next to the large picturesque windows and Infinity Game Table inclusive of a wide variety of board games such as Monopoly, Life, Trouble, or Connect 4 to name a few of about fifty, all playable electronically! We also hope that one of your guests can gently play our guitar to make for a fantastic fireside environment, and if not, enjoy using the 2nd of 3 SONOS WIFI Speakers which is actually the Soundbar under the Living Room TV. While you have access to the back deck and backyard from here, we hope that friends and family can enjoy your favorite show by the fire when dining at our large natural wood dining table between the living room and kitchen. Our kitchen meets the TAP Inventory List, so we will have all that you can expect at home and more, ensuring a lovely breakfast, lunch, and dinner for all. The Kitchen consists of top of the line BOSCH appliances, stone countertops, an additional bar table top and seating area, 2nd Fireplace, and access to both the back deck and the bottom floor.

Should you walk down and around the right side of the home, you can enter the bottom floor full kitchen, or continue around past the shed into the back where you will find an upper and lower patio. While the upper deck grants you access to the Kitchen or Living room, as well as the outdoor patio furniture and BBQ, the lower section allows you to tuck away and into the 8 person Hot Tub which will be set to 100 degrees upon your arrival and is complete with a built in waterfall, jets, and lighting. We do also have an outdoor shower, and we encourage you to rinse off prior to getting into the hot tub as this will ensure a more clean and purified water condition throughout the duration of your stay.

Great for large groups!
Being a large group, space was appreciated. This property do not disappoint! We had an amazing stay and it was all we expected and more! The location is perfect, with everything you need in a short drive including the lake! The amenities offered were more than expected, including the small things such as…beach chairs and towels, life jackets and a fully stocked spice rack. The game room provided entertainment for all ages.. along with the spacious outdoors! The adults enjoyed the sauna room and the peacefulness of the surrounding neighborhood! Would recommend it to all and definitely would love to stay again!

A great property but lots of mice.
The house was super nice and would totally recommend it but there were 3 dead mice and 2 live mice upon our arrival there. The house smelled from the dead mice and it definitely grossed us out.

Dream getaway
We truly loved this place! The property is so beautiful! Modern and homey at the same time. It's very well maintained, tip top quality with all the amenities I hoped for. It has plenty of room for everyone and was able to accommodate our big group. The kids enjoyed the snow outside and kept busy with arcade games inside. Chris (host) was easy to reach and very hospitable. I personally loved the yoga room with heated floors- didn't want to leave haha.. We didn't get to take advantage of the hot tub & sauna, but hopefully next time. I can't wait for the next trip back!
