Years ago, my great-grandparents decided they wanted an escape from city life and bought a small plot of land by the Truckee River near Lake Tahoe. With the help of my unlces, my great-grandfather built a cabin by hand over the course of one summer. To this day, their little campsite still stands outside the cabin with a mirror nailed to a tree for shaving and pile of old firewood. #familycabin #vacationhome #laketahoe #outdoorretreat #truckeeriver #summerhome
