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 cozy smaller full bath is right outside the second bedroom (on the first floor) for easy convenience. The second bathroom is engineered to include a full bath; however, the addition of a shower means the space is small, but very ambitious. 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!

Host responded quickly to questions. Enjoyed the paddle boards, chairs, beach towels, and wagon for the beach. House was very nice, and clean! Location was great! Would definitely stay again.
We had a wonderful stay at Lori’s condo! The location was perfect—just a short walk to Lake Tahoe, with beautiful views and easy access to everything we needed. There were great restaurants nearby, as well as places to rent jet skis and boats, which made it so convenient to enjoy everything Lake Tahoe has to offer.We also loved being able to take relaxing walks along the lake. The condo was comfortable, clean, and in a great location. Lori was a wonderful host and made our stay easy and enjoyable. We would definitely stay here again and highly recommend Lori’s place to anyone visiting Lake Tahoe!

Thank you so much Laura - we’re so glad you had a wonderful stay!
Such a lovely rental for a week at Lake Tahoe! We had plenty of space for our family of 4. The kitchen was very well stocked. The bathrooms were clean and had plenty of towels. It was so nice being able to use the beach chairs and have a bunch of beach towels. The unit is just steps away from the private beach and there was a nice snack shop right on the beach where we could get nachos and smoothies. The location is super convenient as well with lots of shops and restaurants. Highly recommend this house for a family who needs a solid home base for several day trips/adventures.

Thank you Iain - we welcome our overseas visitors and are so glad you enjoyed our beautiful Tahoe area. 😊
This stay was great. Had everything we needed and was very clean. I, myself, am an over packer so of course I brought my own detergent, toiletries, kitchen things like trash bags, towels, and ziplocs, etc but this place had that and more which was so helpful. The kids enjoyed the living space, especially the loft. Also everyone enjoyed the comfy beds. Very close to the beach and walking distance to stores and nature walks. Overall super happy with this place. Will definitely return and would love to stay here again. Thank you Lori and Rob for making this vacation a memorable one.
This place was perfect for our family ski trip! It’s super close to the mountain and away from the crazy crowds at Heavenly Village! I would 100% recommend this location! Best Family Vacation Ever! Thank you for unforgettable Memories

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.
