About this cabin rental

The cutest, coziest cabin in all of Tahoe. Lovingly remodeled to preserve its 1940s charm, this two bedroom gem blends vintage character with modern comfort. Steps from Lakeside Beach, the rec center, pool, bowling, yoga and ice skating rink, it is a perfect home base for easy, family friendly Tahoe fun.

This home has comfortable sleeping & dining for a family of 4. Parking for 2 vehicles in the driveway. This applies 24/7.

Equipped with a beautifully updated kitchen, where mornings start with coffee on warm wood floors and evenings end around home-cooked meals. Granite counters and new appliances make cooking a pleasure, and the kitchen is fully stocked with dishes, pots, pans, and utensils so everything you need is right at your fingertips. Each bedroom feels like a cozy retreat, thoughtfully decorated with heavy pine furniture, soft quilts, and warm lighting that perfectly complements the cabin’s timeless mountain charm.

The backyard is perfect for Tahoe cookouts. Step outside to soak in the hot tub under the open sky, fire up the gas BBQ for an easy dinner, or gather around the outdoor table as the evening cools and the stars come out. On snowy winter mornings, the front porch is the perfect spot to sip a hot cup of coffee while fresh snow falls quietly around you, wrapping the cabin in a peaceful, storybook Tahoe scene. It’s the kind of space where mornings are slow and quiet, and nights end with relaxed conversations, warm water, and that unmistakable mountain calm.

The living room is made for cozy family nights after a day of Tahoe adventures. Gather around the gas fireplace insert, sink into the sofa or one of the comfy chairs, and unwind with a favorite movie or show on YouTubeTV. Log in to your own Netflix, Disney+, Hulu, Sling, AppleTV+, or other streaming service, kick back, and enjoy relaxed evenings filled with warmth, laughter, and together time.

The home is located in one of South Lake Tahoe’s most charming and walkable historic neighborhoods, originally designed in the late 1920s. This quiet area blends classic Tahoe cabins with thoughtful remodels, offering a peaceful, local feel while still being close to beaches, dining, and year-round activities. A short walk away awaits Lakeside Beach, and Marina is an excellent spot for summer days, with a free concert series on Thursdays during the summer. There are numerous bike and S.U.P. rental locations near the beach. The bowling alley and the community golf course are both close by, making it easy to mix laid-back fun and outdoor recreation into your Tahoe stay. Walk to Safeway to grab all your groceries. Nearby Bijou Community Park adds even more outdoor fun with a BMX bike course, disc golf course, dog park, volleyball courts, open green space, and paved paths that are perfect for walking or biking.

For longer stays, guests may wish to bring or purchase additional supplies and use the in-home laundry.

The place was very clean, and had everything you need to feel at home! Will definitely be staying here again. Thanks

    What we liked was that the cabin is located close to the lake, close to restaurants and shopping, yet in a very calm old neighborhood, where I could take the dog for a walk without being run over, as well as close to parks and open nature areas. The cabin is small, but perfectly accomodating for a weeks stay. It is also close to the ski-sport area!

    Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: This cozy cabin was just right for our active family of 4. Very clean. It was in the perfect location for walking to see the lake, or walking to get coffee or ice-cream. Quick drive to everything else. The private backyard & hot tub was nice. We saw a bear stroll by early one morning from the front porch. Great hiking in Lake Tahoe area & aqua blue water secluded beaches to hike to just a short drive away.

    We knew this was a pet friendly place. But a bunch of reviews reported how clean it was. It smelled like they vacuumed with a full vacuum. It just blew the dust and dirt around. My 6 year old who has seasonal allergies but is managed with a single kids Claritin daily wasn’t sitting in a chair for less than 30 minutes and started sneezing and was covered in dog hair. His eyes got puffy and started getting welts all over. He’s been around dogs before and never had a problem like this. To make it through the night I had to load him up on Benadryl. There were signs everywhere saying no dogs on furniture. Dog hair was visible on bed sheets. We complained to the property rental company and they dropped off a brand new vacuum and fresh bedsheets. They also offered a discounted price for our stay. Not worth me spending one day of my vacation cleaning a house that wasn’t mine and still getting charged even a cleaning fee. My sons allergies were much better once we cleaned. I wish I could post the pictures. I regret booking this place. Pros: hot tub *with strict time restrictions Water pressure was great Close enough to the state line Nice neighborhood Cons: Noise Aware decibel sound measuring in the house to make sure you aren’t to loud but they report it’s “100% privacy compliant” (that’s too Big brother for me) Mattresses were old and very springy No dishwasher I’m really sad to post this but it’s the truth.

    It really is COZY and was great for 4 people. It's very pretty and nicely decorated. I loved the washer/dryer in the bathroom so we could easily keep up with dirty clothes. The kitchen was well-equipped with everything we needed. The hot tub was nice and big with good jets. The beds were comfortable and fairly firm. Thanks so much for everything!

    Cozy cabin and excellent location. Very well kept interior. The hot tub was a treat after a long day of skiing. Has everything you would need in the kitchen. Would definitely stay again.
