The Cedar House Sport Hotel located in Truckee is a leader in the hotel industry for integrating green building practices into its overall design and guest services.
And, its gardens borrow some early ingenuity from an old Tahoe classic, Vikingsholm.
The overall aesthetics and beauty is well worth a visit.
- Lighting and fixtures
- Recycled log exterior
- Retention ponds catching storm water runoff
- Shower dispensers
- Tank less boiler room
And, the water used on the native plants located on the “green roof” drains down gutters into the gardens below.
It’s even pet friendly.
