Our Story
About California Luxury Stays
California Luxury Stays was born from a simple belief: the Sierra Nevada deserves better hospitality. Not just clean sheets and a working lock — but thoughtful spaces that elevate the mountain experience.
We're a family-operated collection of premium short-term rental properties in Graeagle and Northstar, California. Every cabin in our portfolio is hand-selected, personally maintained, and designed with guests who appreciate quality in mind.
From the stone fireplaces to the chef's kitchens, from the hot tubs under the stars to the ski storage by the door — every detail is intentional. We live here. We know these mountains. And we want your stay to feel like coming home to a place you didn't know you were missing.
The Sierra Nevada is more than a backdrop for us — it's home. Graeagle's alpine lakes and golf, the Lakes Basin trailheads, the slopes at Northstar and Palisades, the quiet pine forests in between — these are the places we send friends and family. Our properties sit at the center of all of it, so you spend less time planning and more time out in the mountains we love.

Meet Your Hosts
A family at home in the Sierra
Behind every stay is a family that lives in and loves these mountains. We host the way we'd want to be hosted — answering questions personally, keeping each home in top shape ourselves, and sharing the local spots that make a trip memorable. When you book direct, you're working with us, not a faceless platform.

- Personal concierge service for restaurant picks, trail guides, and local tips
