Welcome to Cloud 9 and 1/2 by AvantStay!
Tucked at the edge of national forest land and surrounded by whispering pines, this secluded Incline Village retreat is truly a slice of heaven in the Sierras. The only home on its quiet, wooded street, it offers rare privacy just minutes from Lake Tahoe’s iconic beaches, ski slopes, and mountain trails.
Inside, you’ll find a warm and welcoming great room where massive windows frame the forest and sunlight dances across hand-hewn floors. A large stone hearth anchors the living area—perfect for curling up with a mug of cocoa after carving up the slopes at Diamond Peak (just 4 miles away). The open-concept kitchen is built for culinary gatherings, boasting pro-grade stainless steel appliances, a chef’s fridge, a wine cooler, and a striking natural stone island. Right beside it, a grand dining table with seating for up to 20 invites lingering dinners, game nights, and laughter-filled celebrations.
Step outside onto the wraparound deck for summer grilling sessions beneath the pines, or take in the stillness of the snow-dusted forest in winter. You’ll feel worlds away—and yet, Incline Village’s golf course, lakefront parks, and restaurants are only minutes down the hill.
With three cozy bedrooms all located on the lower level, this home sleeps 8 comfortably. The primary suite includes a Queen-over-Queen bunk bed ideal for families or close friends, while the King and Queen rooms offer direct access to the lower deck—a serene place for morning coffee or stargazing. Two walk-in showers, a half bath, washer/dryer, central air, and complimentary WiFi ensure you have everything you need for an easy, memorable stay.
Whether you're here to ski, swim, hike, or simply recharge in the trees, Cloud 9 and 1/2 is your Tahoe homebase for every season.
AvantStay provides an upscale experience with services that elevate your stay and save time so you can enjoy every moment.

Situated in the snowy Sierra Nevada Mountain range straddling the border between California and Nevada, Lake Tahoe offers stunning panoramic scenery and year-round adventure. Visitors flock here especially to ski and snowboard on dramatic slopes that seem to fall into the abyss of the lake’s cobalt blue water.
