Blending authentic Old Tahoe character with modern comfort, this spacious and light-filled cabin offers the perfect setting for families and groups seeking a memorable North Lake Tahoe getaway.

The thoughtfully designed kitchen combines vintage Tahoe charm with updated appliances and two sinks, making it easy for multiple guests to cook and entertain together.
Outdoor living is where this lakefront Lake Tahoe cabin rental truly shines.

A short stroll down a private path leads to one of the home's most sought-after amenities: a shared private pier with sun deck, sandy beach access, and buoy—a rare find for a Lake Tahoe vacation home. Spend your days swimming, paddleboarding, boating, or simply soaking in the breathtaking alpine scenery. Located within the desirable Brockway Springs HOA community, guests also enjoy a peaceful and well-maintained lakeside setting in North Lake Tahoe.

We thoroughly enjoyed every moment of our stay at this charming home that is tucked away in a beautiful setting near Lake Tahoe. The Lake view and access were superb, the dock was a tremendous added bonus and the home was warm and inviting. We truly appreciated being there each and every day!

Skyrocks is a lovely home with old Tahoe charm throughout. There was plenty of room for our family of 11 to gather together, we loved the large dining table and the deck. It was a bit of a walk down to the lake - especially the way up, but having lake access was fun for all. The pool was a huge hit with the kids. Working fans would have made sleeping upstairs a bit more pleasant. Overall a great place to enjoy family time in Tahoe!

Great Place to stay in for lake access
Highly recommend considering staying at Sky Rocks in the Spring/Summer/Fall if you are looking to soak up some sun and hang by the lake. Great outdoor space and atmosphere. Short walk down to the lake with a dock and easy access to the Lake. Only negative was the two double doors in the living room were boarded up with wood. There was no mention of this when we made the reservation nor any signs or notes stating this. Not even a “sorry for our appearance as we are under construction”. Just felt a bit sneaky by the owners to not disclose this in advance.

Lovely home. You may want to replace the torn screens and ensure all windows open. Many we were not able to open. Many electrical outlets did not work. Has the owner considered installing ceiling fans for summer? Great kitchen layout but a bit dark. Loved the game and puzzle closet. Thanks for the high chair. Love the neighborhood. Can you find out where owner got the bear at the front door? Our 6 month old granddaughter loved it and we would love to buy it from them. Thanks

This is a very special property, and we will continue to stay at Sky Rocks. We love it. Everything is perfect, except for a few small suggestions. Drying racks in the main kitchen would be super helpful while doing dishes. More beach towels please :). Fans in every bedroom in the summer would be great for hot summer night sleeping.

Beach and backyard are 5 star, but inside bathroom locks are quite old, and I dont think they cost much for you to fix them, such big properties generally multiple families travel and it was challenge with broken bathroom door locks.

Great location. Needs major updating and cleaning
This place could be amazing if it was cleaned thoroughly and updated. Kitchen cabinets have mouse poop everywhere. Electrical outlets are burned up and a lot are faulty. They will ruin phone chargers. I had young kids with me, 2,3, and 5. It was a constant worry that they would get hurt here. Make sure you where shows in the deck and pier. All kids ended up with tons of splinters in their feet. We did like the place, and it could be amazing if it was just taken care of.
We had a lovely time at Skyrocks. It is very homey and comfortable. The filtered lake view was very nice and access to the lake was good. I would not say there is a beach but more of a slippery rock covered space that you can carefully get into the lake from. The deck and dock were quite lovely and we enjoyed sitting there and taking in the beauty of Lake Tahoe. Location could not be beat.

Beautiful property great for a family get together, this is our second stay at Skyrocks. When we arrived the cleaning had not been completed the outside table and floor had caked food and spills on the floor. As a suggestion, would recommend that the house have a deep clean, the floors are stickly and the walls are greasy. The kitchen cook ware, glasses and untensils all need to be replaced. The dishwasher also needs to be replaced. The bedding, covers, pillows etc need to be replaced as well especially with the Covid issues.

Awesome location and beautiful setting
Sky Rocks is situated in a beautiful, tranquil and private setting. The property is perfect for kids to explore and the path down to the dock provides a fun little adventure. The house could have been a little more clean when we arrived. I don't believe the cleaning crew did that great of a job, but other than that our stay was absolutely perfect.
We enjoy the quiet neighborhood and a beautiful view.

Reviewer Comments:
I was searching for a family getaway for a week in July for our summer visit to Lake Tahoe. Tahoe Getaways had two attractive choices and our main attraction was the water front description that Sky Rocks promised. Also my boys wanted a more cabin feel as we usually stay at the Hyatt. The home is large and secluded even though it’s convienently located right off the main road around Tahoe. We were a minute away from Incline and Kings Beach. The property did not have a “private” beach that we ever found. We were able to hear the hums from the boats but the home is a bit of a hike to the water. My mother in law was not able to make it back up the unpaved path to the house due to slippery rocks. The view from the deck is beautiful, full of huge trees with bits of the lake. The home has a small kitchen then a butlers kitchen as well. It has a huge old six burner stove that was very tricky to operate but was a beautiful statement to the old kitchen. The supplies of cooking skillets pots and utensils are in need of replacement. The cabin feel was promised as described due to hardwood floors and pine paneling with enormaous high ceilings. It gets very hot in the afternoons and most blinds are broken which made opening a window near impossible. Several small issues like not being able to get the garage door open when we had a 1000.00 boat rental provided unessicary stress on our days. I’m sure it was in need of a simple battery. The home could be wonderful but needs attention to detail for this price. The deck is huge and can accommodate several families for a nice gathering. Also a large dining table near the wonderful windows facing the lake. We loved eating out on the deck before dark. We spent a morning at Tree Top park zip lining that was great exercise and enjoyable for all ages. Another day renting paddle boards and a full day boating and tubing. Aside from being so far from the lake as I invisioned we could handl

We appreciate you taking the time to review your stay! While I do wish we had known about any confusion you came across or operational issues you noted so that we would have had a chance to resolve them for you, I'm glad to hear you enjoyed your time in Lake Tahoe. In order to provide clarity for future renters, Sky Rocks is advertised as a split-lakefront which is accessed by walking a path roughly 75 yards from the property to the water. Some groups may find this walk easier to navigate than others, and I'm sorry your mother-in-law had a hard time making it back from the beach. We are also available 7 days a week if any future renters have trouble finding the Brockway Springs HOA beach, we are happy to provide directions.

This is the second time we've stayed at Skyrocks and we love it. The only negative was, both last year and this year, when we arrived the front porch and back deck, including the outdoor furniture was coated with pine pollen. We had to clean it off ourselves in order to make those areas usable and to prevent tracking the pollen through the house. That should have been cleaned by Tahoe Getaways before our arrival.

Response from VrboOwner on 8 Aug 2023
Thank you for taking the time to review your stay! We're so glad you love the home. During the summer months, this pine pollen is nearly impossible to avoid even when dusted off consistently. We appreciate you taking the time and effort to ensure you were not tracking pollen through the house. While we always make sure our homes look great for our guests, future renters should expect a bit of pollen in the air and therefore landing on any outdoor spaces.

We just love to host you and your group each year! Upon your departure, we did discover a flipped breaker in the guest cottage which seems to have caused the outlet issue, so that has been resolved.
