Overview

Welcome to Falcon Ridge, your Truckee mountain escape. This handcrafted log lodge sits among towering pines, with a wraparound covered porch, a welcoming red front door, and mountain views from nearly every window. With 4 bedrooms and 3 bathrooms, it sleeps your whole group comfortably and works just as well for a long weekend as for a week of remote work.

Inside, the great room has soaring vaulted ceilings of warm tongue-and-groove pine, massive exposed log beams, and a floor-to-ceiling river rock fireplace with a rustic log mantel. Settle into the leather seating or curl up on the built-in window seat with storage beneath, and watch the light move through the tall gable windows. A hand-peeled log staircase leads up to the loft, where a pool table, a comfy lounge sofa, and skylights sit under the exposed rafters. The loft overlooks the fireplace below, so the whole group can stay together.

The fully stocked kitchen is ready for everything from quick weekday breakfasts to full holiday dinners, with a gas cooktop on a butcher-block island, double wall ovens, a stainless dishwasher, and a farmhouse-style faucet. A bay-window nook with built-in bench seating is a sunny spot for morning coffee. For bigger meals, the dining area has an extendable table, a leather bench, and a sliding door to the deck, so you can eat with a forest view.

Remote workers will appreciate the dedicated desk set-up at Falcon Ridge. You can trade your commute for pine-scented air, take calls with a view of the trees, and be on a trail or in downtown Truckee by the time you log off. When the workday ends, the fireplace and the game room are right there waiting.

Sleeping arrangements include a king bed in the primary bedroom, two queen bedrooms, and a bunk room with 3 twins that kids will love (and adults who never outgrew the top bunk). Three bathrooms mean no morning bottleneck, and one has a deep corner soaking tub beside a frameless glass walk-in shower, all in natural stone-look tile. It’s the place to unwind after a day on the slopes or the trails. A full-size washer and dryer in the laundry room make longer stays easy and take care of wet gear after snow days. Outside, the covered porch is a good spot for morning coffee or evening stargazing, and the backyard has plenty of room to spread out while Sierra views surround you.

The location puts a wide range of year-round adventures close by. In summer, Donner Lake and Lake Tahoe are a short drive away for paddleboarding, kayaking, swimming, and lakeside dining, and Donner Memorial State Park offers hiking, picnicking, and the Emigrant Trail Museum. Prosser Creek and Boca Reservoirs are quieter options for paddling and fishing. The Tahoe Donner trail network, the Truckee River, and the Tahoe Rim Trail cover hiking, mountain biking, rafting, and fly fishing, and the Alder Creek Adventure Center is a local hub for outdoor recreation in every season. Several mountain golf courses are nearby too, including Tahoe Donner and Old Greenwood. In winter, world-class skiing and snowboarding await at resorts like Northstar, Palisades Tahoe, Sugar Bowl, and Boreal, along with cross-country skiing, snowshoeing, and sledding. Historic Downtown Truckee, with its boutique shops, craft breweries, coffee roasters, and restaurants along an Old West-style main street, is a short drive away. Check current drive times and road conditions before heading out, especially in winter.

Falcon Ridge is a good fit for family getaways, friends’ ski trips, multi-generational gatherings, small team retreats, and remote workers who want a change of scenery.

- No smoking of any kind is allowed anywhere on the property, including porches, decks, and outdoor areas.
- No pets are allowed unless authorized in your reservation. Bona fide service animals are permitted as required by law. Emotional support animals are not permitted unless authorized as pets. A no-pet policy does not guarantee that animals have never been in the property or that it is free of pet allergens.

- No illegal activity is allowed on the property or its internet service, including unlawful downloads.

Fees and Charges

Subject to the booking channel’s terms, you authorize Avari to collect the following through the booking channel or the payment method on your reservation, where applicable:

- any damage or loss during your stay,
- up to $1,000 for pet policy violations, including extra or different pets than authorized,
- up to $500 in additional cleaning (or the actual cost, if greater) for rule violations or excessive mess,
- any fines from police, government agencies, utilities, or HOAs, plus related damages, and
- a late departure fee of up to one night’s rental if you don’t check out on time.

Rule violations may result in termination of your stay and removal from the property without a refund.

Property Conditions

- Please report any maintenance, housekeeping, or safety issue to Avari right away and allow reasonable time for us to fix it. We may enter the property with reasonable notice, or immediately in an emergency.
- The property is provided as is. Shared amenities such as pools, hot tubs, parking areas, and fitness centers are outside Avari’s control.
- Properties may have features with inherent risk, such as stairs, docks, hot tubs, or wildlife, and guests use them at their own risk. Adults are responsible for supervising any minors at all times.

Check-In, Check-Out and Travel Insurance

- Early check-in and late check-out may be available for an additional charge.
- We recommend travel insurance to protect against financial loss if you need to cancel. Coverage may be offered through your booking channel at checkout, or you can purchase a policy from an insurer of your choice. Please review any policy for eligibility, benefits, and terms.

Cancellations and Unavailable Properties

- The cancellation policy shown on your booking channel at the time of booking applies.
- Avari is not liable and no refund or compensation is owed if the property is unavailable or unusable for reasons outside our control, such as severe weather, natural disasters, mechanical failures, evacuation orders, or utility outages.
- If the property is unavailable for another reason (such as an ownership change, removal from the rental program, or extensive repairs), Avari may substitute a comparable property. If none is available, you may choose another available property (paying or receiving any price difference) or receive a full refund. Substituted properties are subject to these terms and any Unit-Specific Terms for that property. All of this is subject to the booking channel’s terms.

Legal

- To the maximum extent permitted by law, Avari and the owner, and their affiliates, officers, directors, employees, and agents, disclaim all warranties and are not liable for indirect, incidental, consequential, special, or exemplary damages, or for personal injury, illness, emotional distress, or property damage related to your stay. This applies to all claims, including those based on warranty, contract, negligence, or strict liability. You agree to indemnify Avari and the owner for claims arising from your or your guests’ actions.
- These terms are governed by Oregon law, unless your Unit-Specific Terms or local law require otherwise. Disputes will be resolved through individual binding arbitration administered by the American Arbitration Association, except for eligible small claims. Class actions and jury trials are waived. See the Avari Vacation Rental Agreement for full dispute resolution terms.
- Avari may assign these terms without your consent. ā€œAvariā€ means the entity named in your Unit-Specific Terms or, for U.S. properties without one, Avari LLC.
- In certain U.S. markets, Avari is required to run a sex offender registry check through Guest Ranger LLC, a third-party consumer reporting agency, and by booking you authorize this check. California residents may request a free copy of their report from Avari. Washington residents may request a summary of their rights under the Washington Fair Credit Reporting Act from the reporting agency.
