About this property

Steps to the Lake & Beach Peaceful Retreat...2 Bed + Loft

Please also visit our gorgeous SEDONA, AZ VRBO #4026729 (last photo listed). Lake Tahoe is one of the most majestic places in the world so enjoy your visit with all the amenities! We love our place in Lakeland Village for its tranquil setting and close proximity to our PRIVATE resort BEACH only STEPS AWAY. We are also located only a mile from Heavenly Ski Resort & the casinos in South Lake Tahoe. Play tennis, swim in one of the 2 pools (one pool is open year round & the beach pool is open in the summer months only) or just go for a walk on the beach and enjoy the view. The amenities also include 2 outdoor hot tubs and a gorgeous PRIVATE BEACH only STEPS AWAY. Come for the beach in the summer, the colors & bears in the fall, the skiing in the winter & all of the above in the spring!

Our 3 level unit sleeps 8 -10; the first floor includes the primary bedroom with one king bed and the second bedroom with two queens. The primary bedroom on the first floor includes a roomy en suite bathroom and another more cozy full bath is right outside the second bedroom (on the first floor) for easy convenience. The living room includes a pull out sofa bed. The OPEN LOFT on the 3rd level includes two full beds - perfect for all the KIDS!

The 2nd level includes the living room, kitchen and dining room. The dining table seats 10 and there’s plenty of room at the bar for 3 more for easy mingling. Relax in the morning on the balcony with some Keurig coffee or enjoy the woodsy view in the evening with something a little stronger.

Two kayaks & two stand up paddle boards are provided for your use at no charge! The most desirable aspect of Lakeland Village is its location - this tranquil LAKEFRONT setting is only a short walk to pubs and restaurants and it's less than a mile from some of the best skiing in the world!

Great proximity to the water and easy walk to various restaurants in the area. The water toys (ie. kayaks, and SUPS) made the trip memorable. We also forgot our iPad, and Lori graciously returned it to us promptly. Thank you so much!

Beautiful weekend at Lakeland

I visited the property with my family, age range from 4-50 years old. We really enjoyed everything. The resort is centrally located, we could walk to restaurants and grocery stores. The casino 5 minute drive. The unit was clean and comfortable! We could see the lake from our balcony. I recommend staying at this property!

Awesome location!

Location was great for skiing. Close to Heavenly and in the middle of both Northstar and Kirkwood. Near tons of restaurants and shops and a SHORT walk down to the beach with awesome Hot Tub even in the winter. Condo was pretty great and was very homey - we will stay again if we find ourselves back in South Tahoe.

We enjoyed our stay. The amenities in the apartment and outside were great. The proximity of the lake and shops is convenient. The condo had a lot of extra water toys and supplies that made this place stand out than most we have stayed in. Thank you for sharing your home with us.

Nice condo

The condo was nice, if not a bit snug, for 5 friends on a ski vacation. Parking was close and easy. Location was on the lake, close to Heavenly California lot, restaurants, grocery store, and casino area.A couple of challenges: - Ski storage locker was full of owners things. - Microwave apparently broke 10 days before our arrival and unfortunately was not replaced. - Only 1 thermostat which is on the livingroom level. When the fireplace is on in the livingroom it warms that room and the loft and the thermostat shuts off.and the 2 bedrooms on the lower level get cold.- local High School kids know the combination to the community hot tub. They were pleasant enough but one group brought bottled beer, without an opener, or any to share. Fortunately the bottle did not break into the hot tub when they tried to open the bottle on the tub’s coping

Relaxation at Southshore

We “happened” upon an opening due to a cancellation and decided to try it out. The unit is well kept, clean and welcoming. They have everything you need including water toys (kayaks,& paddle board-which we had never done before). Enjoyed the beach, BBQ and the proximity to everything including boat & jet ski rentals. We had a wonderful week at Sophie’s snow & sand shack and will definitely stay there again.

Perfect Weekend!

The condo was perfect for our weekend skiing trip, despite the snow storm as we were leaving. The place felt like a home rather just another rental property and it had everything we needed including a much needed hot tub after a day on the slopes. The lake is right off the hot tub/swimming area and we can't wait to come back and enjoy it during the summer! The property also has a shuttle that runs very frequently and can take you to Heavenly or the casinos in the evening. Overall a great place to stay!

About the host

Hosted by Lori Dotterweich-Burks

Host profile image
We have lived in the Tahoe/Reno area for over 20 years and love the Lake! We have a 12 year old daughter, Sophie, and own a local pet business. We want to share our home with visitors so they can experience some of the most beautiful scenery in the world. Welcome & Enjoy!

Why they chose this property

We love this property because of its proximity to the lake with our own private beach! Everything is within walking distance and we love the pools for swimming since our 12 year old is a little fish.

What makes this property unique

Everything is so close yet the tranquil setting allows for a relaxing getaway.
