About
Nestled at 4,850 feet elevation in the heart of Carson Valley, this property offers stunning mountain vistas in every direction—including panoramic views of Job's Peak and the Sierra range just 2.5 miles away, and the Pine Nut Mountains stretching across the valley to the east. Set on 2.5 landscaped acres with mature trees and open lawns, the location provides a peaceful retreat while remaining ideally positioned for exploration: South Lake Tahoe and skiing at Heavenly are just 15 minutes away, historic Genoa is 10 minutes north, and Reno is approximately 50 minutes distant. The nearby towns of Gardnerville and Minden offer full services and amenities just 10 minutes away. The RV pad itself is a spacious, level concrete area accommodating rigs of various sizes with ease. Guests enjoy 30-amp electric hookups and access to well water, with a convenient spigot for filling fresh water tanks. The safe, quiet setting provides an excellent base for visitors seeking proximity to Lake Tahoe's world-class skiing, hiking, fly fishing on the Carson River, and hundreds of miles of outdoor recreation in the surrounding mountains and valleys. This location excels as a hub for adventure enthusiasts. Within minutes, guests access Fay-Luther Canyon hiking trails, scenic drives, and opportunities to explore wild horse herds in the Pine Nut Mountains. The area supports year-round outdoor activities, from summer recreation to winter skiing at multiple resorts, with diverse attractions including historic mining towns, hot springs, and renowned fly fishing waters. The property's dark skies are ideal for stargazing, and nearby trails offer excellent hiking opportunities. Guests consistently praise the welcoming atmosphere and local expertise available at the property. Comprehensive information is provided in advance to help visitors plan their stay, and the hosts are known for generous sharing of travel knowledge, camping tips, and personalized recommendations for boondocking and exploring the surrounding region. The peaceful, well-maintained grounds combined with genuine hospitality make this an ideal stopover for travelers visiting the Lake Tahoe area or exploring Nevada and California's Sierra Nevada region.
