My husband and I stayed at Lisa’s property and we loved our experience! Lisa was great and very thorough at check in. Great location! Perfect little cabin home base while we explored Tahoe! Our only “negative” comment is that the shower head is a little low, so my husband hit his head a few times. Would definitely recommend this property!
Amazing stay in North Lake Tahoe in the summertime!
We stayed here for four nights and had a wonderful time with no complaints. The space was perfectly clean and spacious, and a very short drive from town. We would highly recommend this place to anyone coming to the north side of Tahoe!
Property was accurately described and in a great location. Utilities all worked, property was clean, and communication with the host was good. We had everything we needed.
This cabin was very clean and tidy. Very nice rustic decor. The kitchen was well stocked with accessories needed to cook. The outside barbeque worked great. The front yard was very pleasant to sit and enjoy the atmosphere of Tahoe.The only issue was that the bed mattress is well used and in need of replacement. Other than that, I would highly recommend for a couple's getaway.

Thank you for your kind word and I'm very glad you enjoyed your time here. I did order a new mattress to replace the previous one, should be here by Friday. Hope to see you again sometime.
This was a lovely cabin tucked away from the hustle and bustle down by the beach. I slept so well in the bed I asked what the mattress was!
We will definitely be returning during the winter to try out the cabin in the snow!
Thanks for a lovely stay!
Overall, the property was well located and had all the necessary amenities. A perfect place for one or two people who are active during the day. The cabin is small and not really made for just hanging out during the day.
Cute little detached cabin in the perfect location, walking distance to Kings Beach and golf!
Owner is a lovely woman who greeted us with a tour of the cabin and all the amenities offered with the rental. She even gave us a bucket of golf balls collected from her backyard! (Which is adjacent to Old Brockway Golf course) We hope to stay again in the fall!!
We really enjoyed our week in the cabin. It is secluded and quiet yet close to everything King's Beach has to offer. The cabin is small but is clean, well-organized and has everything you might need. The setting in the trees is great and we enjoyed hanging out in the front yard that features a chair lift swing.
Our host Lisa was very kind and helpful. We would love to stay again in the future.
The cabin is really nice, clean and cosy. Kitchen fully equipped (we loved the espresso maker :-)), comfortable bed and a nice yard where we had a great and relaxing time for breakfasts and some dinner.
Location is perfect, very calm and nice neighborhood and everything in King’s Beach is accessible within less than 20 minutes walk (and the nice golf restaurant at 5 minutes). A lot of hike, bike trails and water sports available. Loved it!
Lisa was a wonderful host. She helped us settle in with a mini-tour when we arrived and was available at reasonable hours when we had questions throughout our stay. It’s clear that a lot of thought went into setting up the accommodations and consistent effort goes into maintaining them.
The cabin at Tahoe Vista was perfect for our week at Lake Tahoe. The location is great – just a short walk to Kings Beach and several local restaurants. The cabin itself is small but well equipped and comfortable for the two of us. We enjoyed sitting outside in the morning with our coffee. Lisa and John are great hosts and take pride in their property and North Lake Tahoe. They gave us great hiking and day trip recommendations. We will come back.

Hello Diane, thank you for the lovely review. We try our best to share our love of Lake Tahoe and the surrounding area with everyone we meet. We appreciate your comments about the Pinewood cabin as we take pride in offering our guests the best possible location to find rest and peace at the end of a day's adventure. We look forward to your return.
John and Lisa
We had a wonderful time at this cabin! Came in for the end for the year holidays and couldn’t have asked for a better stay in Lake Tahoe. We were able to cook using the stay’s kitchen and utensils, walk around to local restaurants, stock up on ingredients from the local grocery market (less than a quarter mile away), and make a drive up to Tahoe Palisades to ski/board! John and Lisa were very kind and incredible hosts! I forgot my gloves in the cabin and they reached out to send them back! Look forward to staying here again!

Thank you, Eduardo and Taylor, for your kind words. We realize that the cabin is in a great location so we strive to provide every opportunity for our guests to be able to enjoy the beauty that surrounds us. We look forward to your return. Best regards, John and Lisa
This adorable cabin, clean and well-appointed, is perfect for 1-2 people. It is so pretty that just having breakfast there before a day of adventure is a joy. The pine wood cabin smells delicious and is set among other cabins and trees. There is literally everything you would need from a washer/dryer to clothes soap! I liked the location; it is in a quiter part of Lake Tahoe but still accessible to everything. The hosts were nice and helpful but not intrusive. I hope I can return soon!

About the host
Hosted by Lisa Mcdonald
Came to Tahoe in 1964 and stayed. Met, married, and raised 3 boys here. Love the pure air, pure water, healthy environment. Love to share the history, the beauty, the activities, and the hiking directions with my guests
Why they chose this property
This sought after location, within the Old Brockway Golf Course, is in one of the oldest neighborhoods at Lake Tahoe. It was established in 1926, and developed by Henry Comstock of the Virginia City Gold and Silver Mother Load era. Centrally located to all Lake Tahoe's activities available yet remains private. The property itself is surrounded by over a dozen 100 foot tall Pine trees, dozens of smaller Aspens, and many varieties of wildflowers and perennials
What makes this property unique
Private driveway for two full size cars, private yard and patio with gas BBQ tucked in and surrounded by Aspens. The complete kitchen provides opportunity to create great meals. The ski lift swing in the front garden/yard came from Tahoe Donner Ski Resort is right next to the outdoor umbrella table. Leave your car secure in your own private driveway and walk to the Lake, or hike/bike to most of the local area focal points and trails, free to explore the surrounding beauty
