About this property

Rustic Sol........All warmth and coziness

The name of the cabin, Rustic Sol, captures its essence. Modernised and comfortable, the cabin retains its rustic Tahoe charm and soul. And atop a rise and south facing, it basks in glorious 'sol' (sun). And yet there are many more outstanding features……..

The land to the north slopes gently down over conservancy and forest service lots providing privacy, forest views, and excellent tobogganing opportunities.

The 2 storey cabin has been renovated and appointed with a thoughtful combination of antique and modern furnishings to provide a comfortable stay while maintaining the rustic character. Some qualities include:
- Gas fireplace/stove for ambience and to protect the air quality in the Lake Tahoe basin.
- Triple pane windows for a draught free and warm stay.
- Central heating to ensure that every room, including the bathrooms, is comfortable.
- 46in LED Smart TV with access to internet apps such as YouTube, Pandora, etc; HD free to air TV stations; and a large library of movies and TV series.
- A chef's kitchen with granite counter tops and all new appliances
- New king and twin mattresses, bedding, and down comforters for a good nights sleep
- High speed internet, wifi and a telephone to stay connected.
- Access to Chamberlands private beach (beach ONLY, no pool or tennis access).

Rustic 'Sol' is the ideal mountain getaway regardless of whether it is outdoor adventure or relaxation that is on the agenda. The cabin is convenient to amazing skiing, hiking, mountain biking, and spectacular sandy beaches on the lake. In the summer, take the free shuttle to the beach, or in winter, call Homewood Mountain Resort for a free pickup.

Please note that the driveway is narrow and curves upwards to the house, hence, AWD or 4WD cars with tires suitable for snow are required in winter due to the likelihood of snow.

This little cabin was the perfect respite from the real world. It was in a beautiful, quiet, hilly area. The kitchen had everything you would ever need and was completely stocked with every condiment and spice on the planet. There was even a first aid kit and other things that could be used for small injuries and cuts. The bathrooms were clean and very nice. We used the BBQ once and it appeared as though it were brand new (there was also a full, spare propane cylinder in case the one installed in the BBQ ran out). All in all, we had a wonderful time and would recommend this beautiful, cozy spot in the woods to friends and family.

The hosts thought of everything!We stayed over Christmas and cooked our holiday meals. The kitchen was fully equipped. You can tell the home is well loved and taken care of. We hunkered down during a snow storm, & kept warm by the fireplace. Our hosts thought of everything one might need during a stay. Truly a blessed time.

Our stay couldn't have been more perfect. Host was so kind and responsive. Easy to access, location was amazing. House had everything we needed. Kitchen was stocked with all the necessities. Enjoyed the private beach access. Hiking trails, even just strolling through the neighborhood. Our kids and dog had a blast. Would love to stay again in the summer! Thank you!

A very nice cabin to stay during the summer (we stayed the week after Labor Day). We liked the fact that all household items worked and having a washer and a dryer made things convenient. We liked the central location as we visited Truckee, Donner Lake, Incline Village, Emerald Bay, and Echo Lake. Very much recommended.

Cozy West Shore cabin

We really enjoyed our four nights at Rustic Sol. The location on Tahoe’s west shore is convenient to many attractions. The cabin is very well appointed and has plenty of vintage charm. We cannot wait to visit again!

We stayed at this cabin earlier this year. It was exactly what we were looking for! A cozy cabin in the snow where we could get away for a short time. We will stay there again if we have the chance!

About the host

Hosted by Mike Eseltine and Ling Ng

Host profile image
We are a family of four living in Australia, but with Californian roots. This is our mountain getaway, which we hope to get back to at least once a year. In the meantime we hope you enjoy the cabin and mountain air as much as we do.

Why they chose this property

How many ways do we love the mountains?

We have hiked, backpacked, snowboarded, skied, camped, and soaked in hot tubs throughout the Sierra Nevada mountains.

We completed the John Muir Trail.

We got engaged at the top of Mt Whitney.

We named our daughter Sierra.

And now we have Rustic 'Sol' to continue to build and sustain mountain stories and memories.
