Sherwood Chalet by Tahoe Getaways - Pet-Friendly 3 BR w Bonus Room & Private Hot Tub
Welcome to Sherwood Chalet in Ward Canyon—a hidden gem in a quiet mountainside setting that backs to National Forest lands. This private West Shore holiday rental is an ideal haven for those seeking relaxation and outdoor adventures, including fishing, hiking, and skiing. Enjoy exploring acres of backcountry trails and easy access to the Sherwood chairlift at Alpine Meadows, less than a mile away!
As you step inside this Lake Tahoe holiday home, you'll be greeted by 1,824 square feet of inviting spaces that include 3 bedrooms and 2.5 bathrooms, making it a true mountain escape. The open great room features soaring wood-beamed ceilings and rustic finishes, seamlessly connecting the living, kitchen, and dining areas. The living room invites you to sink into a plush couch by the crackling gas fireplace while enjoying a homemade pizza cooked in it, all while taking in the spectacular alpine scenery through the floor-to-ceiling windows. Work remotely at the convenient desk area or unwind in front of the large flat-screen TV.
You'll love sipping your morning coffee and taking in the fresh mountain air on the sundeck just off the living room, which offers gorgeous views of Twin Peaks. The beautifully remodeled kitchen, featuring stainless steel appliances, granite worktops, and a large island, flows into the spacious dining area where you can enjoy delicious meals before hitting the slopes and embarking on outdoor adventures around Lake Tahoe.
On the lower level, you'll discover the home's three bedrooms: one with a king-sized bed, one with a queen-sized bed, and one with two bunk beds—a delightful space for the little ones.

Cozy mountain home away from the hussle of Tahoe City. Lovely backyard with trees - you can see from the hot tub (and the home).The home has a lovely chef kitchen and big dining table. We used the grill on the porch and relaxed at home for several dinners. We were a little thrown off by the bear protection (wires around doors/windows) but realized this is the norm for the area.
The place is really nice and in a perfect location for a chill ski weekend. Really well maintained place with nice furniture and comfortable beds. Only two small issues we had were the stove being a bit finicky and not wanting to stay lit and the hot tub didn’t always maintain tempereture

Absolutely Amazing Property
This is hands-down one of the best rentals I have ever stayed in. Everything about it is awesome. Especially the Geckos. We stayed in February to ski Alpine Meadows and luckily the Sherwood Chair was open. This prevents having to DRIVE DOWN TO LAKE TAHOE AND BACK TO ALPINE MEADOWS ROAD TO ACCESS THE SKI RESORT. If Sherwood is running it's a 20 minute gradual walk on the road in ski boots to get to the Sherwood Chair on the backside of Alpine. There is also a dropoff area there to let people out. It would be great to have the "Resident Parking Pass" because there are a few spots up there to park in but it's patrolled according to the signs. The house itself has a long staircase up to the front door but man once you get inside, it's fantastic. Wolf Gourmet cooktop, stone slab kitchen center island, Sub-Zero fridge, built-in surround sound, Blu-Ray DVD player, smart TV, JBL Bluetooth speaker, computer station with printer, massive dinner/game table, front deck, back yard goes into a wilderness (it's possible to ski back to the house from Alpine), GLASS ENCLOSED INDOOR HOT TUB that gets up to 104, great mattresses and linens, a wood-burning fireplace with...get this...A WOOD-FIRED PIZZA OVEN BUILT INTO IT! Bring raw pizza dough and all the toppings. No condiments so bring your own. There's a padlock on the hot tub you'll need the code for that, which wasn't provided and Tahoe Getaways close at 5 I think. Coffee grinder and maker on site. The team at Tahoe Getaways were extremely helpful and attentive. I cannot wait to book this place again!
