About this house rental

Welcome to the Sunset House in Grays Crossing! This architectural gem of a home is extraordinarily comfortable for a large group, located in a private setting, yet only minutes from downtown Truckee. This house was built for the Sunset Magazine "Idea House" 2008 annual edition (link to original article/photos here: https://www.sunset.com/home/idea-houses/tahoe-idea-house-gallery).

*READ BEFORE BOOKING*

Your reservation will not be considered finalized until you sign the included rental contract, including the names and ages of all guests. After the rental contract is received, you will receive a welcome letter with key details to ensure house FAQ are answered in advance.

We rent our home sporadically, and have a 5 day minimum stay requirement (longer during some holidays) as we prefer to have families/ groups that can settle-in and enjoy this private, fully-furnished architectural gem for more than a weekend.

We stayed at the sunset house with our big extended family- 13 ppl. Plenty of room for everyone to be comfortable. An easy 15 min ride to Northstar every day and had fabulous snow for an awesome week on the slopes. . Most nights we cooked in the beautiful kitchen that had everything we needed and then some! The house belongs to a family - so don’t expect an empty vacation rental - that said, most rooms have plenty of space to unpack and enjoy, with the exception perhaps of the master bedroom.

Just be aware that owner lives in the house and so there is somewhat limited access to closet and/or shelf space.
