Great cabin in a perfect Tahoe City location—right on Lakeshore Road! Clean, modern amenities, beautiful deck, and a pristine hot tub. Worked well for our family of six (two younger kids), though it might be a bit snug for six adults. Would definitely stay again!

We had a wonderful stay at AvantStay in Lake Tahoe! The home was cozy, well-equipped, and perfect for a relaxing getaway. A special shoutout to the host for going above and beyond—they generously dropped off Nespresso pods and creamer when we inquired, even though it's not something typically provided. We truly appreciated the thoughtful gesture and his quick communication throughout our stay. Highly recommend staying here if you're looking for a thoughtful and responsive host in a beautiful location! House has an awesome hot tub, fenced in backyard, board games and fireplace and deck. Access to main road and lake and downtown Tahoe City is easily walkable. Only downside is 1 bathroom if you had numerous people at the house, but for us it was perfect.
