Overview

Make your way to the beauty of Carnelian Bay and soak in some lake seclusion at this fully updated and beautifully renovated home! With a bright interior with a fully equipped kitchen, cozy fireplace, all the amenities you could need for a breezy stay, and high-end finishings, there will be no need to sacrifice any comforts of home while away. After a dreamy day on the lake swimming, boating, kayaking, or fishing, returning home for a homecooked meal will be just the way to reminisce with loved ones about the fun that was had. The chef of the group will be in paradise with all new appliances and spacious countertops. Piney Retreat offers guests the convenience of a great separation between the bedrooms and the family area, providing even more privacy within the home. Not to mention, the furnished deck will be just the place to breathe in some fresh summer air with a favorite drink in hand.

WHAT’S NEARBY
If easy lake access is what you are after, this location is hard to beat, as the water is a block from your front door. Walk the opposite direction and you will find the trailhead to an extensive trail system that will be perfect for the hikers and bikers of the group to explore the surrounding area! Come winter, skiing is a short 12-mile drive away at the famous Northstar California Resort! Plus, when you want to check out the local restaurants and shops nearby, both Kings Beach and Carnelian Bay have their own unique places! Gar Woods Grill & Pier is a great dinner spot mere minutes from your front door.

Clean, peaceful, and clear instructions.

This was great and convenient with a well stocked kitchen. I do recommend adding one dishwasher pod for each day of the rental and a few more dish towels! We were a group that cooked every meal and it was very well equipped but lacked a few things to be able to keep it as clean as we would have liked! A washer and Dryer would also be an amazing addition

Loved the location, great place, nice patio, close to the beaches. Around 35 minutes drive to Sand Harbor Beach only make sure to make reservations weeks before.

Avari response:

Thank you, Marijana, for sharing your experience with us. We're thrilled to hear that you loved the location and enjoyed the nice patio during your stay. It sounds like you made the most of your time at the nearby beaches, and we appreciate the tip about Sand Harbor Beach reservations—it's definitely a popular spot!

At Avari, we strive to provide a comfortable and welcoming environment, and it’s wonderful to know that you felt at home. We would love to welcome you back for another stay whenever you're ready to explore more of Carnelian Bay.

Lovely home! The open kitchen and living room was great for entertaining and conversation. The rooms were comfortable and quiet (I’m obsessed with the pillows!) and the back patio is serene. Close enough to the main road around Tahoe so going to the beach or the grocery store is only a short drive. I would absolutely stay here again!
