Could not recommend this gorgeous cabin more! The house had everything we needed and was beautiful inside and out. Really appreciated the baby gates on the stairs and high chair on the property. The house was well equipped with lots of extra towels for the hot tub. My family had a ton of fun with the pool table downstairs! The location is near a grocery store and a quick drive to the lake. Definitely would stay here again!

We love visiting Tahoe to ski and enjoy the cool comfortable summers. And of course the slower seasons are also among their favorites with less people in town and amazing weather!

We also love improving and doing routine maintenance to our Tahoe home. It is truly our pride and joy and we try to make every detail show our love and appreciation for this property. Thanks for taking a look at our home!

Why they chose this property

Location of the property is so convenient to the grocery store, gas and restaurants. No need to go into town during busy traffic times or snow storms. Playground close by at the Tahoe Paradise Park for the kids. Lots of great trails in the neighborhood for hiking and snowshoeing. About the same driving distance to Sierra-At-Tahoe as driving to Heavenly. Kirkwood and Hope Valley are closer to the house compared to driving from the Heavenly area.
