About this property
West shore is the best shore! Charming cabin in quiet Tahoma neighborhood.
This 3-bedroom, 2-full bath cabin on the West Shore is the perfect place to come and relax in the summer or winter! Walking distance to Chambers Landing and the Rubicon Trail, this quiet street will provide the perfect get-away for you and your family.
Walk or ride right out of the cabin onto great hiking trails or sit and enjoy the large deck while you BBQ in the summer or the NEWLY added covered front porch and watch the snowfall under the patio heaters. Play one of the many games provided and enjoy the sounds of the great outdoors, including McKinney Creek flowing right around the corner.
The kitchen is fully stocked and ready for those who enjoy cooking or BBQing! Don't feel like cooking, venture out and enjoy a meal at Chambers, Swiss Restaurant, West Shore Cafe, Dog and Bear Tavern (voted One of Tahoe's Best places to eat), and Shadyside Tavern - or grab burgers to-go from Cult Burger all just a short drive from the cabin. Explore a bit further and head into Tahoe City, a 15min drive where you'll finds a myriad of shops, restaurants, ice cream and activities.
Head to West Shore Sports rentals for all your outdoor activity needs, explore the bike trail up to Tahoe City or down to Meek's bay. Or hit the slopes at Homewood just a 5-minute drive. The cabin even has a small desk for those interested in escaping their 'home office' and looking for a change of scenery.
Tahoma market is just around the corner, where you can grab gourmet sandwiches and all sorts of goodies for a day at Meek's Bay! Head north to Tahoe City and raft down the Truckee River, visit some of the many shops and restaurants, or venture south to Emerald Bay and hike any of the vast hikes with breathtaking views! This cabin is perfectly situated right between them both.
When the weather gets cold, you'll love the convenience of the gas stove with a flip of a switch you'll have the perfect spot to cozy up. Sit under the covered porch with your favorite book, coffee or glass of wine - where you can escape the sun in the summer or watch the snow fall in the winter!
Sleds provided in the winter and beach/sand toys in the summer.
Come see why the West Shore really is the Best Shore! You won't regret staying at this cabin.

About the host
Hosted by Chad
We bought this cabin in 2021 and have absolutely enjoyed our time spent here. We've put a lot of love into this place to refresh it with updated furniture, bedding, a new bunk room and bathroom and everything you could need in the kitchen! We've created a relaxing place on the back deck, for BBQing or playing games and added a gorgeous covered front patio where you can sip your morning coffee or enjoy a cocktail at night - turn on the patio heaters and stay warm all year round!
We absolutely love this area, it is quiet and peaceful and the cabin is quite private. We love walking or biking up the Rubicon trail, or walking down to Chambers Landing for a punch or nice dinner. The bike trails out of the cabin and along Hwy89 are fantastic! West Short Sports rentals provides anything you could need to enjoy the great outdoors: bikes, kayaks, paddle boards, ski/snow board equipment, snow shoes ... and more!
Tahoma market is a short drive from the cabin and offers anything you may have left behind, visit their deli for delicious sandwiches and more!
We love how close we are to so many amenities: Obexer's where we easily launch our boat to enjoy a day at the lake; Meek's Bay where you can set up shop on the sandy beach, paddle board, play beach volleyball and enjoy the sun.
Our family loves to head into Tahoe City and raft the Truckee river every summer, either renting rafts from one of the couple companies or bringing our own tubes where you can drop off and park a car at the lot across from Fanny Bridge, just past BridgeTender restaurant (then park a 2nd car down near River Ranch Lodge where you can grab lunch and drinks afterwards).
In the winter, you can't beat the short drive to Homewood to hit the slopes at a small family ski resort with some of the BEST views of the lake. Don't miss a drink at Big Blue View Bar in the middle of the mountain - and soak in the breathtaking views.

Why they chose this property
We absolutely love how quiet this area is relative to other parts of Tahoe, and the 'old tahoe' feel you get while here. Unlike many lots in Tahoe, ours is quite private with no direct neighbors given the Tahoe Conservancy land to the right and behind us, and the vacant lot on the left that's owned by our neighbor to the left.
There are plenty of restaurants nearby without having to go into Tahoe City, but that's just a short drive further and offers quite a few more activities including mini golf, ice skating, restaurants, movie theatre, ice cream, shopping, museums ... and more!
While we always enjoy a night out, we also savor a quiet evening in grilling on the back deck or cooking as the kitchen has everything you could need to fix the best meals! We provide a cabinet full of games, darts on the back deck, with yard games, beach toys, sleds in the winter - and have a Christmas tree up Thanksgiving through New Year's. There are so many great hikes you can do right out of the cabin and can snowshoe in thew inter ... we love taking our quad up into the Rubicon and exploring while taking in the amazing views.
Obexer's is just a 5 minute drive away and provides one of the few places to launch a boat on the lake, we love spending a day buzzing around the lake. Homewood is across the street from Obexer's and our favorite place to ski in Tahoe, as it's so easy to pull right in and park and you rarely wait in lines at the lifts throughout the day. Plus, you can't beat the views from Big Blue Bar up on the mountain.
We hope you'll enjoy our cabin as much as we do ... we've made so many fun memories there, and know you'll do the same!
