Nightingale Retreat in Tahoe City by Tahoe Getaways - Pet-Friendly w/ Private Beach
Nestled in a quiet cul-de-sac in the prestigious Tahoe Sierra Estates, Nightingale Retreat is a luxurious 3-bedroom, 2.5-bathroom Lake Tahoe vacation home, perfectly designed for year-round getaways. This upscale retreat combines comfort, style, and convenience, making it ideal for families, groups, and couples seeking winter ski adventures or summer lakeside escapes.
In the winter, Nightingale Retreat puts you close to Tahoe's best ski resorts. Homewood Mountain Resort is less than 15 minutes away, Palisades Tahoe is just 15 minutes from the home, and Northstar California Resort is a 26-minute drive, providing easy access to world-class skiing, snowboarding, and après-ski fun. After a day on the slopes, relax by the wood-burning fireplace, or enjoy cocktails at your private wet bar.
During the summer, the property transforms into a serene lakefront escape. Guests can walk to the West Shore and Truckee River Bike Paths, explore downtown Tahoe City, or enjoy exclusive access to the private HOA beach and shared pier. Kayak on crystal-clear waters, bike scenic trails, or soak up the sun on the private beach, all just steps from the home. Nightingale Retreat offers endless ways to enjoy Lake Tahoe's natural beauty in every season.
Inside, vaulted ceilings with rustic exposed beams and an open floor plan create a bright, welcoming space for gathering. The updated kitchen features brand-new stainless steel appliances, a breakfast bar seating four, and forested lake views from the dining area. The living room's expansive wall of windows frames stunning filtered views of Lake Tahoe, and the adjacent back deck and lower covered patio provide additional opportunities to connect with nature.
All three bedrooms are on the lower level, offering privacy and comfort. The primary suite features a king-size bed and luxurious ensuite bathroom with dual sinks. The second and third bedrooms each have queen-size beds and share a well-appointed bathroom, making the home perfect for families or groups. A convenient mudroom and laundry area with direct access to the driveway and backyard ensures easy transitions between outdoor adventures and indoor relaxation.
Whether you're skiing in the winter or exploring Tahoe's scenic trails, beaches, and bike paths in the summer, Nightingale Retreat is your ultimate home base for an unforgettable Lake Tahoe vacation.

Perfect Location
Our family enjoyed our stay! The location was perfect - close to the hub of Tahoe City and a quick walk to the private beach, which made it so worth it! We ran into a few neighbors, who were extremely sweet and welcoming. The accommodations were clean and orderly with all the amenities to make our quick getaway comfortable. Many thanks! We will hopefully be back!

Great Stay
This home was comfortable and clean. The kitchen was well equip and we ate most of our meals there.. There is a bit of a lake view from the deck and kitchen. The HOA beach and pier was a short walk from the home as well as Tahoe City. The neighborhood was really nice and quiet, overall a great location. My family really enjoyed our time there, and look forward to returning!

Great Week at Nightingale
Nightingale Retreat is a perfect place to be in the summer. 5 minute walk to North Shore's best private HOA beach: grass, sand, plenty of lounge chairs, and a pier. Home is well-equipped, comfortable and cool in the trees. The neighborhood has Tahoe House bakery and coffee shop, New Moon natural foods market, Massage on the Lake, and a Pilates studio, right across the street on West Lake Blvd. This is our second summer in a row in this neighborhood. Love it!
Nightingale is a well located spot with access to a private beach and dock. A 5-10 minute bike ride to The Bridgetender to the north, and Sunnyside to the south. The home is well appointed with all of the conveniences a family needs for a relaxing stay.

Nightingale Visit
Great location for a great vacation. It's a very quite spot inspite of being very close to Tahoe City and West Lake Tahoe Blvd. The deck is a lovely place to relax up it the trees with a partial view of the Lake. Tahoe City Golf course has been restored to a great place to play for a reasonable price. Mountain biking is at the doorstep with a great trail up Granlobacken. Bring your wagon to ferry your Kayak a short walk to the private beach. As usual we had a wonderful time.
The lock box was confusing to us. I had to call on call manager to give more detail.Very clean , appreciated the greatappliances and we had everything we needed.Location to beach, Tahoe House(coffee) and natural grocery was so nice. A bit of a steep hill to go down to beach area if mobility is a problem.And…saw bears in the neighborhood which we got excited about.
