Hilltop Retreat | Hot Tub · Gym · Games · Views | House in Sparks
1 Bedroom House in Sparks
Perched in the hills of north Sparks with sweeping mountain, valley, and city-light views, this 3,800 sqft home is built from the ground up for groups that want to be together. Sleeping up to 16, it`s an entertainer`s paradise: a massive great room, dedicated game room, private home gym, full wet bar, and a backyard with a hot tub, two fire pits, BBQ, and yard games. Spread out, play hard, and unwind. Your best group trip starts here.
~ The Great Room: the heart of the home (about 1,000 sq ft)~
The showpiece of the house. Walls of windows pull in natural light and frame the valley views, anchored by a brick gas fireplace. Two distinct lounge zones mean nobody`s fighting for a seat: a power-reclining sofa and loveseat in front of one TV for movie night, and a huge sectional with chaise around the fireplace for hanging out. Two smart TVs, smart lighting, and plenty of room to gather.
~ Wet Bar & Games Corner~
Just off the great room, a full wet bar with sink and bar seating, stocked with glassware and a cocktail kit, sets the tone for the evening. A foosball table and air hockey table sit right alongside for some friendly competition.
~ The Game Room / Den ~
Step down into the den, a second living space with its own gas fireplace, a full-size pool table, and an electric piano. There`s a twin daybed with trundle tucked in here (sleeps 2 more) and a private half bath, and the room loops right back around to the kitchen, perfect flow for a party.
~ Private Home Gym ~
A rare find in a rental: a fully equipped gym in its own garage space with a private entrance off the great room. Inside you`ll find a weight rack/machine, Olympic bar and plates, curl bar, a NordicTrack RW900 rower, yoga mats, and a mini fridge to keep your water and recovery drinks cold. Get your workout in without leaving home, then cool off in the hot tub out back.
~ Chef`s Kitchen & Formal Dining ~
A true cook`s kitchen with a high-end gas range, tiled island with bar seating, dishwasher, and a separate prep nook/counter. Fully outfitted with quality cookware, knife set, Vitamix, KitchenAid mixer, coffee maker, and reverse-osmosis filtered water. It opens to a grand formal dining room that seats 10 to 12 at a solid wood table, under soaring ceilings with an exposed beam. This is the spot for the big group dinner.

You`ll be tucked into the quiet, hillside Vistas neighborhood off Los Altos Parkway in north Sparks: established, well-landscaped, and known for those big valley views. It`s the best of both worlds, with peaceful cul-de-sac calm and a major retail hub minutes away.
- Lake Tahoe & skiing: Roughly 45 minutes to an hour to Lake Tahoe`s beaches and the Tahoe-area ski resorts (Mt. Rose, Northstar, Palisades), making this an ideal home base for a summer lake trip or a winter ski getaway
- Reno & the airport: About 10 minutes to downtown Reno and the Reno-Tahoe International Airport, with casinos, concerts, and events close by

A car is recommended; easy access via Pyramid Highway (445) and Sparks Boulevard.
A car is the easiest way to explore Sparks, Reno, and the Tahoe area, and there`s plenty of free parking at the home: a 2-car garage, room for 3 more in the driveway, and free street parking out front.
Reno-Tahoe International Airport (RNO) is about a 10 to 15 minute drive, so airport runs are quick and painless. From the house you have fast access to Pyramid Highway (445) and Sparks Boulevard, which connect you to I-80 and US-395/I-580 for trips into downtown Reno (about 10 minutes) or up to Lake Tahoe and the ski resorts (roughly 45 minutes to an hour).
Rideshare (Uber and Lyft) is readily available throughout the Reno-Sparks area if you`d rather not drive after a night out or a day on the slopes. Public transit (RTC RIDE) serves the wider metro, but service to this quiet hillside neighborhood is limited, so we recommend a car or rideshare for the smoothest stay.
We offer 15 other homes in the Reno area, so if you`re looking for additional accommodation beyond 16 people, check out our host page on Airbnb to see our other listings/availability!

Every Thursday, our hot tub cleaner will be at the home during business hours to clean the hot tub and balance the chemicals. Additionally each Tuesday in the summer months our Landscaping crew will be at the property. Just to avoid any surprises!
Our trash pick up days are on Thursdays. Each Wednesday evening, our maintenance manager will come to the property to take the trash to the curb, and will return Friday evening to bring the bins back in.
