Homes don't come much more in tune with nature than this one. Situated just below South Lake Tahoe, you'll feel truly immersed in the natural environment. From waking up to views of beautiful pine trees and the peaceful sounds of birds chirping to feeling like you're staying in a luxurious treehouse fortress no matter what room you're in.

Located in the quiet area of Meyers, just outside of Echo Lake, in the summer months you’ll be spoilt for choice with hiking trails and swimming opportunities in the lakes (Echo Lake is a sixteen-minute drive, while Lake Tahoe is twenty-four minutes away). In winter, you can make the most of backcountry skiing and snowboarding before retiring home to heat up in front of the roaring fire with a hot chocolate. Guests lucky enough to occupy the master bedroom can even treat themselves to a relaxing soak in the jetted tub!

Whether you're a group of friends looking to reconnect, or a family ready for an adventure-filled trip, this lodge offers ample possibilities for amazing memories.


Soaring Skies

Escape to the (wine) country with a stay at this stunning single-storey home, complete with its own vineyard. Vast floor-to-ceiling sliding doors reflect that life here is best lived outside, while its single-storey layout and open living spaces encourage you to spend time together inside and out. All this is only aided by your host's "take a bottle, leave a bottle" policy. 

Help yourself from the extensive selection before topping it back up with a bottle from one of several nearby vineyards. We can picture spending endless sun-soaked days sipping sauvignon blanc out on the front deck, with awe-inspiring views of the nearby mountains. Alternatively, why not share stories around the firepit as you swirl a bright pinot noir around your glass?

Good wine needs good food. Thankfully the fully kitted-out kitchen is equipped with everything you'll need to unleash your latent culinary creativity. Alternatively, there's a gas grill in the backyard for chargrilled outdoor eating. With dinner ready, gather around the three-person breakfast bar or the gorgeous wooden dining table.

On days when you don't fancy cooking, the home is just minutes from Healdsburg, the epicentre of Sonoma County's dining scene. Its vibrant downtown is dotted with a mouthwatering selection of restaurants, from celebrated chefs to innovative up-and-comers.

At the end of the day, break out a book and retreat to the quiet of the reading room, or stretch out on either of the two super king-size beds before falling into a wine-induced slumber. Remote black-out blinds ensure you can enjoy a lie-in if you need it.

Climb the Vine

Welcoming up to twelve guests, Colours of the Lake is the perfect home for a large family gathering just outside of Donner Lake. Whether you decide to visit in the summer or the winter, this area has plenty to offer to make it magical all year long. The open-plan living area is the home’s main social hub, perfect for chit-chatting while someone prepares dinner, heated debates around the large dining table, or family games in front of the roaring fire. Then step outside and admire the wonderful views from the back deck. From here, you can also spot the sixteenth-hole of the Tahoe Donner Golf Course, which is surely worth a visit if you enjoy the game of golf. Spend your days swimming in any of the area’s magical lakes, enjoy exclusive skiing in colder months or just hang back at the home and relax with a great book and even better company. However you choose to spend your time here, you’ll be glad to soak your tired muscles in the outdoor hot tub at the end of a long day. 

Colours of the Lake

On the outskirts of Truckee, and right by Donner Lake (Tahoe’s smaller, less crowded cousin), Sugar Pine has every base covered to make for a great outdoors holiday. Along with the sheer size, which makes it excellent for larger groups and multiple families, the home has pretty much every amenity you can think of, from the private spa (with sauna and steam room), two barbecues, enormous TVs, a games room, and even underfloor heating (a game-changer after skiing, trust us). These all make it seem like an oasis in itself, so the fact that you have vast numbers of outdoor activities on your doorstep – from skiing to hiking, boating, golf, and more – leaves you spoiled for choice.

Sugar Pine

Surrounded by redwoods and boasting vertiginous valley vistas, this gorgeous Guerneville home is the ultimate California crib. Featuring a fully equipped kitchen and open plan living cum dining room complete with gas fireplace – think traditional river cabin – and French doors out onto a barbecue, dining and lounging deck, not to mention a hot tub and festoon light strewn relaxation area, this stunning Sonoma County home is truly magical. 

Despite the charm of such wonderful all wooden interiors, it’s this home’s outside spaces, all enclosed within private, landscaped gardens, that really sing.  Whether you choose to laze on the sun loungers, hide out in the hot tub, or curl up on the outside sofa after a feast of barbecued delights, you’re sure to feel the power of nature’s nurturing energy as well as of the peace and quiet all around you.   

While you’ll be sorely tempted to bliss out in soothing seclusion forever, take just a short walk and you’ll reach both the banks of the Russian River, and the streets of downtown Guerneville. With canoeing, kayaking and hiking on offer, as well as flower power inspired cafes and more than fifty wineries within an approximately twenty-minute drive, you’ll be spoilt for choice deciding how to spend your downtime. 


Run Russian River Run

Enjoy mesmerising views and direct beach access from this Pacific Ocean retreat. You’ll also find a private hot tub overlooking the water, a putting green and a fire pit for magical evenings under the stars. Inside, there’s a cosy and welcoming living room for socialising as well as plenty of space to stretch out and enjoy the views. Private parking is available and you’ll find it’s less than a ten-minute drive to Half Moon Bay, while San Francisco is twenty-five minutes away.  

Wonder of the Waves

With the Facebook HQ your neighbour, this stylish apartment is ideal for any business trip to Fair Oaks. It’s the perfect mix of business and downtime, with Bedwell Bayfront Park just across the road for a morning jog or leisurely stroll, and plenty of trendy eateries in the area. Plus, it’s just a half-hour drive into the heart of San Francisco, just up the bay.

There’s plenty within the building to fill your downtime. Swim laps in the huge outdoor swimming pool, or laze on a lounger in the sun. There’s a barbecue area dappled with stringed lights and fire pits in the outdoor lounges if you’re feeling social. Inside the apartment block, you’ve got a full gym with its own yoga studio, cafés and myriad plush lounges. Should you crave some privacy, the apartment is kitted out for relaxation in the open-plan living area, and convenient for working remotely with a laptop-friendly desk. The kitchen is particularly spacious and well-equipped with a big breakfast bar for busy mornings.   

Face the Music

In the business hub of Fair Oaks, near the Facebook HQ, this flash apartment sits in a building filled with amenities. If you’re not hitting the building’s private gym, perhaps take a jog through Bedwell Bayfront Park, a five-minute walk away. For a day out in the city, San Francisco is just a half-hour drive away (or fifty minutes on the train from Redwood). 

Apart from a private gym, the building is also home to a huge outdoor swimming pool, surrounded by outdoor lounges with fire pits for cool evenings. There are myriad cafés and lounges inside, and a plush barbecue area outside on the deck too. The apartment itself is big and bright, with modern artworks popping against gallery-white walls. The living room is made for unwinding, but there’s also a laptop-friendly desk should you need to work remotely. The full kitchen is crowned with a sleek, white breakfast bar, providing plenty of space to prep meals.   

Fair of Face

Petite yet perfectly equipped with everything you need for a relaxing stay, this bright home in Pacifica is ready to welcome you into a blissful coastal break. With its large windows, there’s plenty of California sun that pours in creating a dazzling effect against the neutral decor that’s sprinkled with reclaimed wood. There's a harmony here between the natural world and modern sophistication to create a home that is as sleek as it is serene. The bedroom, meanwhile, is pared-yet and wonderfully comfortable, while the bathroom’s rainfall shower is a treat to wake up to each day. Our favourite spot, however, is the wraparound balcony – the ideal place to sip your morning coffee or watch the sunset over the mountains over a glass of wine.  Outside of your home, you’ve got plenty of cute surf shops and cafes on your way to Pacifica State Beach (a ten-minute walk) – a favourite for surfers, photographers and nature enthusiasts – while San Francisco waits to be explored, just twenty minutes away by car. 


Sycamore Cove

Light upon the Lake is one of those homes that feels totally familiar in the best way. This recently remodelled cabin combines modern amenities with traditional architectural features to create a welcoming space and a perfect home-away-from-home. Light upon the Lake is just a short walk from Tahoe City, one of the most popular locations on Lake Tahoe. Famous for its beautiful views of the lake, easy access to tonnes of hiking and mountain biking trails, and plenty of great restaurants and funky bars, this location is one that caters to all. 

Light Upon The Lake

Compact yet strikingly chic, this bright studio in Pacifica is an ideal base for those looking to be within walking distance of the beach in a quiet, residential community. You’ll immediately be drawn to the home’s stylish architecture – from its wood panelling to its cool wraparound balcony. This outdoor spot is the perfect place to begin your mornings over coffee or finish the day off with a glass of California wine as the sun sets on the horizon. Inside, large windows give way to natural, wooded views, echoed in the home’s natural-inspired furnishings. Kick back on the inviting armchairs with a good book while glancing up at the impressive scenery or sit down to a meal at the sleek, open-plan kitchen’s wood table. The bed, meanwhile, promises a sumptuous night’s sleep while the dazzlingly white bathroom’s rainfall shower will get any day off to a relaxing start. Outside of your home, explore the quirky surf shops and cafés on the way to Pacifica State Beach (a ten-minute walk) away – a favourite with surfers, photographers and nature lovers – or hop in the car for a quick drive to San Francisco, twenty minutes from your door. 


Live Oak Cove

If you love wine, this award-winning home is what dreams are made of. Located down an idyllic, oak tree-lined country road and nestled amongst the vines of a working vineyard in Sonoma, this place is utter bliss. You can see the beautiful vineyards even when sitting inside, from the large picture window in the living room. The vista is a sight to behold when the sun rises, flooding the modern lounge with light. The kitchen with its Viking gourmet range is perfect for entertaining, or you can grill dinner on the barbecue and enjoy a meal at the salvaged wood farm table. We love the raised garden beds full of seasonal vegetables and herbs – perfect for using in your cooking. With its multiple terraces and separate one bedroom casita, this home is just the ticket for a group of friends or multi-generational family wanting their own space. If you fancy venturing out, Downtown Sonoma is around a 5-minute drive away, but we really wouldn't blame you if you didn't want to step a foot away from this truly magical place.
