If you crave a simpler time, when good times with family and friends were paramount, then this is the home for you. The property is completely amazing with over an acre of pure Tahoe fun. You know you are in for something special as you enter the gates to this private compound and you are greeted by a sports court with paddle tennis, and basketball. The entire full yard is landscaped with Tahoe perennial flowers and soaring ponderosa pines. Outside is set up to truly enjoy the outdoors with hammocks, table tennis and horse shoe pit. Once inside, Lucky Dons is a spacious 1919 square feet, built in the 1920's. The living room harkens back to a different era with a big wood burning fireplace to enjoy on cool Tahoe evenings. There is a newer flatscreen TV and cable with internet. As with many older homes, you do have to go through the downstairs bedroom to get to the kitchen. The kitchen will bring you back great memories of creating meals without all the fuss. It's basic, but has what you need, including a dishwasher. There is a full bath with shower off the kitchen. Upstairs are two "garret" style bedrooms that are perfect for kids with three twin beds in the larger loft area, and two twin beds in the smaller loft area. The centerpiece of this home is the wonderful lake view deck with a dining table and patio furnishings to enjoy dining in the fresh Tahoe air. There is also a guest house that makes a perfect place for extra family members. There is a king size bed and a full bathroom. The bathroom can be accessed from the bedroom or by an outside entrance, so can be used by guests of the main house. The bath has separate areas for the sink, shower, and toilet so can be used by several people. A path leads the way down to the private water front. There is a buoy available for your boat at no additional charge. Perfect for families with pets. Whether relaxing on the deck of the fully-equipped cabin, playing ball on the sports court, or swimming or boating from the 100' private water front, you'll experience a memorable "old Tahoe" home vacation at Lucky Don's. Please consider that this is a 100-year old, truly rustic, classic home and is priced accordingly. On-site laundry room is available to all guests as well.
