About this home

"Thunder Creek Estate" is one of the rarest type of properties in Lake Tahoe Basin: a home that straddles a year round creek, fed by an artesian spring known as Thunder Creek with Thunder Cliffs above. The original solid timber pecky cedar construction, provides a rustic mountain appearance, to the now renovated home. The numerous windows open onto the sylvan pond setting with the relaxing sound of the waterfall in the background.
