The space
Inspired by the fun side of the 1970s, The Owl House is filled with faux fur, lava lamps, and an owl or two keeping watch over the place — cozy, quirky, and full of character rather than cookie-cutter luxury. The kitchen runs on the smaller side but is stocked with the essentials and a few fun extras, ready for slope-side breakfasts or relaxed dinners after a day outdoors. In warmer months, spread out across the home's decks under the pines; in winter, curl up by Tiki Tom, soak in the hot tub, or gather for board games and movie nights.
Good for
- Families and friend groups who want character over cookie-cutter
- Ski trips, with Tahoe Donner and nearby Northstar and Palisades Tahoe close by
- Guests who appreciate whimsy, nostalgia, and a hot tub under the stars
Good to know: the kitchen is on the smaller side — great for everyday cooking, not built for elaborate holiday feasts.
