RIVENDELL'S HISTORY
Rivendell is the second oldest home in Olympic Valley (after the former Poulsen family home that is now Graham's Restaurant and the Christy Lodge). The cabin has been owned by the same family for over 50 years. When the 1960 Winter Olympics were in Squaw Valley the cabin was used as a media center and CBS filmed the Olympic ski jump from the cabin (the remains of the Olympic ski jump is still visible directly across from the cabin's front door). Don't miss your chance to stay in a piece of Olympic Valley history!

THE LOCATION
Located in the heart of Olympic Valley, this property is located on Christy Lane across the street from Palisades Tahoe Ski Resort, only 7 miles from Tahoe City and 11 miles from Truckee.

What we love about this property is the stunning mix of luxurious amenities and tasteful updated furnishings while highlighting and respecting old Tahoe history. This 6 bedroom, 5 bath home sleeps up to 12 adults and 14 w/kids. Immerse yourself in old Tahoe charm while staying walking distance to the lifts! We look forward to welcoming you to Rivendell on your next Palisades Tahoe getaway!

It takes ~10 minutes, but definitely doable to walk up and down to the Far Eastern lift area. Wish the downstairs common area bathroom with just a bathtub had a shower too, but everything else was great.

We had 4 families that needed 6 bedrooms and bathrooms. One bathroom only had a tub so wasn't as usable for quick getting ready. It was rather warm upstairs so difficult for sleeping, but fans were found in some rooms downstairs that made sleeping better there. There are daybeds that look great but won't work for sleeping as the door to the porch is right next to them and there is no blind on it to block out the light in the morning. The 2 living areas are really nice for putting kids upstairs.There are some minor issues that need to be addressed and a mildew smell initially that affected 2 people in our party. The location is great however. It's just an older home, It was extremely pricey for our trip however.
