Had a lovely stay being on the lake. Access and use of the dock to paddle boat was fun. Views are beautiful. And cozy with having a fireplace. Comfortable beds. Updated kitchen recommended and access to closets use for clothing. Lots of cluttered cabinets for guest of use.

We really enjoyed staying here and celebrating my husband’s birthday. The cabin fit the whole family and there was a pack n play and high chair for the baby which was a huge plus! The host was very responsive and they even replaced the coffee maker carafe when it accidentally broke. We definitely recommend staying here!

This lake house is spectacular! We were wowed by the lake views from every room. Exactly as pictured and even better in person. The home is very cozy and accommodating with absolutely everything you’d possibly need. Kitchen is fully stocked. Beds very comfortable. Spending time outside by the lake was so relaxing and hot tub was wonderful! We would love to stay here again sometime. Thank you for providing such a memorable place to stay at Lake Tahoe.
