Martis Camp is a more than 2,100-acre gated community amid forests, meadows and streams set between Truckee, California, and the northern shores of Lake Tahoe.
An prime example of the types of estates and cabins available in the development is this custom-built dovetail log home. Dovetail refers to the fitted corner notches used to secure the wooden walls.
The estate home sits on nearly two acres and is surrounded by mature trees.

Situated on nearly two acres, Krebs Kabin was designed by Walton Architecture and built in 2012 by NSM Construction. In addition to the main house, the property contains a matching guest cabin.
The tops of the gables on the front facade slant forward in a shed roof effect and seem to ground the structure to the land. Heavy beams, exposed raftertails and expanses of glass define the exterior.
Set on an angle, the great room fireplace has two openings.
