Guesthouse – a new collection of members-only rental houses that combine the comforts of a luxury home with the amenities of a boutique hotel – is proud to announce its inaugural property, Guesthouse Lake Tahoe, which is now available for booking. Guesthouse Lake Tahoe will open in Northern California’s Truckee-Tahoe in spring 2025, welcoming guests with inspiring residential-style design along with exclusive services and amenities including a private chef, private driver, local guide, 24/7 house captain, and ski access to any Lake Tahoe resort – ensuring elevated and unforgettable group stays for every occasion.
“We are thrilled to announce the launch of our first property, Guesthouse Lake Tahoe, in the spectacular mountain destination of Truckee,” said Trevor Cornwell, Founder of Guesthouse. “Guesthouse Lake Tahoe offers more than just a beautiful retreat; it provides an inspiring environment with unparalleled hospitality where people feel genuinely cared for and welcomed and allows guests to meaningfully connect with the destination. Whether traveling with friends, extended family, or colleagues to collaborate and create, Guesthouse Lake Tahoe is the perfect backdrop to both host and be hosted in a special, authentic way.”
Guesthouse Lake Tahoe is an expansive property situated in the heart of historic downtown Truckee and only a few miles from famed Lake Tahoe. It comprises a newly built nearly 4,000-square-foot private residence, and the neighboring Titus House, which will house Guesthouse Pantry, an artisanal bakery and café opening to the public in late 2025. Featuring four bedrooms including three king-sized suites and five-and-a-half baths along with spacious indoor and outdoor living areas, Guesthouse Lake Tahoe comfortably sleeps 10 guests and provides ample privacy to rest and recharge along with dynamic communal spaces to connect, socialize, work and play informally and as a part of curated experiences.
Designed to take the planning out of group stays, Guesthouse Lake Tahoe offers a fully furnished and stocked home with customizable amenities that equally cater to personal celebrations, family vacations, and business retreats. The property’s central great room features a wraparound fireplace, dining room and open-concept kitchen, an upstairs loft for breakaway conversations, a fully finished flex garage space with a kitchenette and mountain views, and a media room for entertainment, presentations, writing, or brainstorms, so there are plenty of spaces and ways guests can come together for fun, work, or both. Prioritizing a connection to the surrounding nature and community, Guesthouse Lake Tahoe offers an abundance of outdoor space, including three decks with striking views, comfortable seating and a fire pit along with a hitching post where guests or their visitors can tie up their horses before or after a ride, if they so desire, to then enjoy a drink or bite al fresco. Additionally, given its location above charming Main Street, the property uniquely offers the best of both worlds as a stylish respite and a convenient home base with immediate access to the vibrancy of downtown by way of an adjacent outdoor stairway.
Personalized Five-Star Services, Amenities & Experiences
Hospitality is the hallmark of Guesthouse, and Guesthouse Lake Tahoe includes a dedicated onsite team – comprised of a private chef, a 24/7 house captain who manages the home, and a local guide and private driver – that provides private transfer coordination, customized meal preparation, itinerary planning, and special events coordination, along with additional services like walkway shoveling, grocery shopping, and dog walking to ensure a seamless, self-guided stay. To take advantage of the region’s renowned winter activities, each stay also includes four gold passes to any Tahoe ski resort, with the flexibility to access all mountains.
Guesthouse Lake Tahoe believes that the best meals are experienced together and offers a creative and nourishing culinary program that’s rooted in honest, delicious, family-style cooking. This includes daily breakfast, lunch, and dinner prepared by the private chef, along with meals to-go or dining in at select local restaurants and a fully stocked selection of wine and beer.
A Welcoming & Timeless Mountain Home Design
With architecture by Ryan Group Architects, interiors by Halfdan Pedersen, Olympia Pearl of Olympia Pearl Design, and Sally Lyons of Blue Skies 3D, and furniture and art by the Michael Hsu Office Of Architecture, Guesthouse Lake Tahoe’s classic design and thoughtful layout are centered around creating a welcoming, familiar feel that connects guests to each other and the natural surroundings. Halfdan Pederson, known for designing soulful and eclectic hotels, restaurants, shops, and residences across the U.S. and Iceland, pulled inspiration from Truckee’s historic origins and stunning scenery to create a laidback second-home atmosphere that allows the views to take center stage. Tall ceilings with floor-to-ceiling windows immerse guests in the surrounding mountains and historic downtown, while cozy, nature-inspired interiors help bring the outdoors in. The result is an authentic Old World meets New World design aesthetic that celebrates and complements, rather than competes with, its Truckee-Tahoe environment.
Idyllic Locale Combines Historic Charm with Natural Beauty
Guesthouse Lake Tahoe is primely located in downtown Truckee-Tahoe, surrounded by nature and within immediate walking distance of charming and eclectic shops, restaurants, wine tasting, art galleries, and entertainment, offering endless opportunities for exploration and connection with the local community. Centrally located only one mile from the Truckee Tahoe Airport and with proximity to Lake Tahoe, championship golf courses, and seven world-class ski resorts within 45 minutes, Guesthouse Lake Tahoe affords guests a convenient and idyllic backdrop for year-round gatherings in one the world’s most spectacular destinations.
Guesthouse looks forward to expanding to open additional locations in meaningful places across the United States, defined by a balance of natural wonder and a vibrant locale.
