f you're looking for a place that puts the Sierra Nevada right outside your door, this is it. This craftsman-built cabin sits on the banks of the American River with easy access into Forest Service land and is just 30 minutes from Lake Tahoe. Although the property has a Highway 50 address, the cabin sits along the river, and the sound of the water is what you'll notice when you arrive. Inside, you'll find quality craftsman workmanship with warm wood finishes and upstairs sleeping areas that overlook the river. Whether you're enjoying your morning coffee or winding down for the evening, the river is always part of the experience. The spacious riverside deck extends your living space outdoors and offers plenty of room for barbecues, family gatherings, or simply relaxing after a day on the trail or the slopes. The location makes it easy to enjoy everything the Sierra has to offer. Walk from the cabin into National Forest, spend the day hiking or mountain biking, cast a line in the river, or cool off with a swim on a summer afternoon. In the winter, nearby Sierra at Tahoe ski resort is just a short drive away. Because this is NOT a Forest Service cabin, you'll enjoy year-round access without the limitations that come with Forest Service land. Hydronic wall heat for nice even heating along with a open fireplace for character. Properties that combine private river frontage, immediate access to public land, with proximity to Lake Tahoe, AND are affordable don't come along often. Whether you're looking for a weekend retreat or a place where family and friends can gather for every season, this cabin offers the best of mountain living in one unique setting.
