“The river stops for no man” - random stranger on river 😂💦

Rafted the truckee river today with and had the absolute best time!

From the check-in to the shuttles, they made the process simple and enjoyable 🧡

Rafting the Truckee river is a must when you visit Tahoe in the summer 🙌🏽

A rare sight!! RAIN in Tahoe in JULY??

When a beautiful little thunderstorm comes through, you have to just sit on the back deck or sit on the front deck and take it in 💦

Happy to be up here relaxing, working on a puzzle, chatting with friends.

Lake Tahoe is the perfect destination for a relaxing or adventurous vacation.

Tell me, are you a person who wants an itinerary of activities or a whole lot of nothing to do?

Either way, we can accommodate you at the blarneystonenorthstar

Up a creek without a paddle?

Just booked a river rafting trip while I’m up at the cabin! Highly recommend or if you’re new to rafting. There is a also a way to float on the river using your own rafts. If choosing to BYO(float), I recommend a thick raft that will feel comfortable for a few hours. Either way 12/10 recommend a three hour float along the Truckee river during your summer vacation with us.

TAKE A HIKE!

Breath that mountain air, observe the flowers, meditate. There are so many hiking trails in Tahoe with some of our favorites being just down the street from our cabin.

This picture came from an impromptu five mile hike just the other day. Beginner level, so more of a walk, with wide trails and cell service the whole time (in case the posted trail maps are not enough)

This five mile loop took me about 2 hours. Who says you can’t take your conference call on the go or listen to an audiobook while enjoying nature.

Have little ones? This is a longer version of a similar hike. With little ones, I’d bring water, snacks and potentially do the 3 mile version. There are plenty of benches, tables and rest areas along the way. This trail could even accommodate a stroller or bike.

Not all who wander are lost ✨

Some are just enjoying the beautiful outdoors in Tahoe! This is part of the TMT trail at Northstar which offers miles and miles of beautiful trails to run, walk or bike.

Take some time away from the hustle and bustle of daily life and enjoy a nice long walk in nature.

📍Sand Harbor

Dreaming of a sandy beach and crystal clear waters, but don’t want to cross an ocean to get there? Look no further than Sand Harbor State Park in Tahoe.

They have kayak rentals, a bar and grill, and an amazing team of lifeguards. (Seriously, we sat next to the lifeguard tower and I have never been so impressed, they are fiercely passionate about their job and I would seriously watch them as a television show). Word to the wise— if going out on a kayak or sup, bring a life jacket ❤️ which you can rent there too!

This place has it all for a day of fun in the sun.

Make sure to arrive early as the parking lot fills up fast on the weekend, but it’s sure worth it to spend a day on the east shore with no worries in the world.

Keep Tahoe blue 💦 Keep Tahoe green 🌲

What do you like more the crystal clear water or the lush green mountains? I think what makes Lake Tahoe so gorgeous is the crystal clear waters situated in the middle of the Sierra Nevada mountain range.

DOES IT GET ANY BETTER?

LOVE LOVE 🎾R LOVE ALL?

I always say love all, but I’m told the correct way is love love. Either way both are adorable and a great way to start your day.

NPOA has plenty of tennis courts to play on, free of charge as a guest at our cabin. You can even rent a hopper. Tennis balls are $5 for a high altitude can at the front desk.

Tennis not your thing? NPOA also has pickle ball, bocce ball, horseshoes, co****le, hot tubs, pools and a gym!

New website is available!

Our family has been enjoying Tahoe for generations. Once upon a time, we had a Stone cabin on the south shore which was lovingly named “The Blarney Stone”. When we purchased this cabin, we wanted to pay respects to our original family cabin and decided this was the “Blarney Stone Annex”

Rudy and I are sad to announce that Placer County has placed restrictions on short-term rentals. However, it is in the best interest of public health for the county to do so to keep all communities safe. Swipe right to read the details. @ Northstar, Truckee
