Amenities
We believe
in creating a space that delights, appointed with thoughtful amenities that anticipate our guests’ needs;
that our surroundings and the objects we touch are important and contribute to our sense of well-being and ease;
in moving through the world with kindness, generosity, and compassion for all beings.
We select products and services that are
-
Living in the mountains, we can’t ignore the many ways we humans impact this fragile wilderness. You can rest assured that we choose products, systems, and vendors who share our goal of leaving this planet better than we found it.
-
If it doesn’t work well, then what’s the point? Not only do we insist on functionality, but objects in the home should be intuitive and durable, and using the item should be pleasant.
-
Gorgeous artwork, attractive materials and finishes, and sumptuous textures imbue spaces with a sense of luxury. Surrounding ourselves with beautiful objects inspires, excites, and connects us, and it helps us remember our own beauty, grace, and style.
From the moment you book, you’ll enjoy a seamless experience with high and low tech: a private guest booking portal with AI identity verification, smart locks with secure temporary codes, hand-drawn maps, and detailed check-in directions to guide you to our front door.
Contactless check-in for a smooth arrival
There just aren’t many restaurants in our little valley, so we ensure our kitchen is ready to meet the demands of any gourmet. Good California olive oil, a selection of vinegar and condiments, whole-bean coffee, and various spices are all on-hand, and you’ll find a variety of cooking tools and small appliances for cooking and baking.
A stocked kitchen with pantry staples
Our small team of Tahoe locals is ready to help you create the experience of your dreams. We can help book reservations, offer activity recommendations, or troubleshoot travel plans. And, of course, we are on hand to respond to any questions that may come up before or during your stay.
Custom-tailored concierge service
Our internet connection is fast, with a 1 GB cable connection, and wifi is delivered by enterprise-grade networking equipment configured to handle disruptions and outages. Connect to our USB-C dock and work on a 27” 4K monitor with mouse and keyboard while enjoying views of Juniper Mountain and the creek. A black-and-white duplex laser printer with Airprint rounds out our tech offerings, making it easy to print tickets, review homework, or prepare for the week.
Work from the cabin with ease
Peace, quiet, and privacy
Located at the tail end of a one-lane private road, across a creek from the main road, the forest is our neighbor, and the few cars driving down our road are from a handful of houses. It feels miles away, yet it’s only five minutes to the mountain.
The Bear Creek Association offers guests many benefits, including private plow service throughout the day, groundskeeping, and maintaining our community swimming pond. The neighborhood’s one-lane roads are slow, safe, and frequently enjoyed by pedestrians and friendly pooches. We particularly enjoy taking walks at night without a flashlight, taking in the moonlight, the stars, and warm, glowing cabins.
A safe, beautiful, and friendly community
The silence of the mountains is profound, and we hope you sleep well during your stay so that you appear well-rested and refreshed when you return home. Rest easy, knowing our bedding and toiletries meet our exacting standards. We offer Public Goods products in every bath, including hand soap, body wash, shampoo, conditioner, and lotion. We also stock a few “just-in-case” items, so you can settle in worry-free.
Luxurious linens, beds, and toiletries
A free, on-demand shuttle service
The Mountaineer on-demand shuttle is a game-changer for enjoying the slopes. You can use your phone to summon a free shuttle that will whisk you and your gear to the mountain and back home again. No parking, no worries.
State-of-the-art entertainment
Our stereo is built with digitally-calibrated Genelec audio equipment, and you can enjoy watching our many streaming subscriptions, including Disney+, HBO Max, and ESPN+, on the 55” Samsung Frame QLED 4K television. The kitchen features a fun recent addition—an internet-connected Vestaboard that will update you on the following day’s forecast, provide timely updates and inspiration, and reveal other surprises.
