A truly exceptional lake view vacation home, Gray Bear Estate is designed to deliver the ultimate vacation experience.
The open concept living area sits upstairs, with the expansive Chef's kitchen at the heart of the home. Outfitted with an eight burner Wolf range, butcher block island, mahogany bar seating four, and formal dining area for eight, we expect many evenings to be spent enjoying a home cooked meal. Adjacent, a cozy seating area surrounds a rock wall with gas log fireplace, large wall mounted flat screen, and views of Lake Tahoe beyond. Escape to the downstairs copper topped bar with seating for four, air hockey table, flat screen TV, and gas fireplace.
Upstairs from the main living area, the spacious Primary bedroom feels like your own private sanctuary within the Estate. A King bed faces floor to ceiling windows revealing tree filtered lake views. A gas fireplace, flat screen television, and large walk-in closet make the space especially comfortable. The en suite bath includes a jetted tub, shower, separate water closet and designated make-up vanity.
A second King guest suite complete with a new flat screen TV and en suite bath is located on this floor as well.
The third and fourth Primary style suites are located on the home's lower level, both with King beds, fireplaces, televisions, and en suite bathrooms of their own. Also on this floor, the bunk room is perfect for the younger travelers, and has its own bathroom with tub. Looking for a quiet retreat to get some work done? A built in office nook sits off the kitchen.
And the fun doesn't end indoors! Off of the main living area, a built-in gas grill and bar serve as an "outdoor kitchen". During the summer months, take advantage of the picturesque view from the expansive deck, with patio dining and oversized lounge furniture. Follow the short steps down to the secluded public beach below. And year round, end your day with a relaxing soak in the hot tub, located on the lower level deck.

Situated between Tahoe City and Kings Beach, Carnelian Bay invites you to relax and soak in its laid-back atmosphere.
Immerse yourself in the enchanting waters of Lake Tahoe, where Carnelian Bay reigns as a paradise for paddleboarding. And when it's time to unwind, treat yourself to a signature "Wet Woody" on the expansive deck of Gar Woods Grill & Pier.
