Lahontan State Recreation Area Vacations from $499

Our unit was as pictured online: basic efficiency with Murphy bed (low to the floor so not for elderly or persons that have difficulty standing up from low chairs /beds), decor in knotty pine cabin motiff. Pleasantly surprised to learn that there were kayaks available on property right next to lake shore that could be signed out for one hour at a time for no additional cost to guests. Also pleasantly surprised to learn there was a fire pit in pool area, where we sat nightly and chatted with other guests / owners and watched gorgeous sunsets. Also the pool area is just slightly above the lake beach with glass "fence" enclosures so you can lay at the pool and look out with unobstructed views over the lake/mountains / trees / boats moored on the water next door etc. Way more beautiful than photos online can capture. This is a timeshare property so many other guests have been coming to the property / area and shared information about good restaurants in town, boat tours, bike rides, and things to do on all sides of the lake, and surrounding areas like Truckee etc. grills, picnic tables and ping pong table set up on property near pool/ beach and the pier with a ladder made it convenient getting in / out of lake without walking on pebbles on beach area to access water. Lake water is completely clear and can see to bottom perfectly and sandy bottom which I appreciated as I do not like being in lakes when I can not see what is around me, so this was also a very pleasant surprise!

Parking is low but otherwise great place

We had a wonderful weekend at Old Greenwood celebrating a friend’s wedding. The staff was very friendly and helpful.
