About this property
Little Bear Cabin by Hauserman Rentals
// This home is a short term rental and ski lease \\
**DOGS CONSIDERED**
Centrally located along Lake Tahoe’s North Shore in the town of Tahoe Vista, Little Bear Cabin is a cozy 2 bedroom 2 bathroom home that combines the best of the “old Tahoe” vibe with some modern updates.
The first-floor living area is outfitted with a large sectional sofa, easy chair and flat screen TV, all centered around a toasty-warm woodstove. There's even a retro video game console table for one player or two! The full bathroom just off the living area has laundry facilities as well. The kitchen is basic but functional and fully-equipped, including a small countertop dishwasher. The adjacent dining table seats 4.
Both bedrooms and another bathroom are upstairs. One bedroom has a King bed and a flat screen TV; the second has a Queen bed. Both bedrooms are accessorized with a small electric fireplace for warmth and ambiance. There's a third "unofficial" bedroom with a Double bed and small lounge area with sofa and TV.
The spacious back deck overlooks a lush pine forest with a peek-of-the-lake view and is perfect for a day basking in the sun or an evening barbecuing with friends and family (gas grill available in summer only).
The central North Shore location provides easy access to year-round fun at beaches, ski resorts, and hiking and biking trails. Nearby North Tahoe Regional Park offers tennis and pickle ball courts, children’s playground, disc golf course, treetop adventure course, a dog park, winter sledding, cross country skiing, and snowshoeing.
Little Bear’s Cabin is an ideal space for a group of up to 4 guests to enjoy quality time at beautiful Lake Tahoe. The family dog can even come along, with prior approval, since this is a pet-friendly home!
Parking is limited to 3 spaces.
