Very nicely decorated and equipped cabin in a quiet location, yet just a few minutes from the lake, restaurants, and shopping.
Location at the end of a cul-de-sac, steps from national forest boundary was perfect for hiking and mountain biking.

Peaceful and Relaxing
Beautiful Tahoe vibes and nice location next to walking trails. Only issue for us was the tiny kitchen. We are big foodies and love to cook family meals at home. Outside grill was a lifesaver! Definitely would recommend. The deck and hot tub are very nice!

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay in this comfortable, cozy cabin! The photos are accurate and we enjoyed the old Tahoe, rustic decor. The cabin has tremendous character and is clearly loved and cared for by the owners. The kitchen is very well stocked and our family really enjoyed the jacuzzi. The cabin sits at the top of the hill above the West Shore. Highly recommend a 4-wheel drive vehicle to navigate the hill in winter. Note that the cabin has a nice gas fireplace and firewood is not necessary. We can’t wait to return!

Couldn't be better
Very cozy lodge that is decorated and equipped in every possible detail. Impeccably clean, high end bed spreads, plenty of duvets, pillows and blankets. Whenever we had a question, we got ahold of Tahoe Getaways staff right away. Overall, our five day vacation couldn't have been better thanks to the beautiful and well organized cabin amazingness. Thank you!

The lazy bear lodge was exactly as described! Great location close to Palisades and Tahoe city. The cabin is situated at the top of the mountain with stunning views in all directions. Stayed with 5 guys. Perfect amount of space for a place to come back to after a day of snowboarding. We lucked out and got 2+ feet of snow during our stay. Again, the place lived up its description and perfect location. We had quick response from property management when needed as well. Highly recommended!

We appreciate the fantastic review and are glad we could be of service. If you have plans to come to Tahoe, we would love to host you again!
Overall a great property. Everything at the house was as listed. The house is a 6 minutes drive up a winding hill off the main road. They had supplies that you would need for a beach day. Washer and dryer was nice and lots of places to sleep. 5 stars if they had extra toilet paper and paper towels. It’s a long drive into town to load up on supplies that should have been there.

Response from VrboOwner on 28 August 2024
Thank you for the great review, Gordon! As communicated prior to check-in, we supply a starter pack of paper products to get through the first day or two. It was a pleasure to host your party, and we look forward to your next Tahoe vacation!!
I grew up spending time in this neighborhood, and had looked at purchasing this very house some years ago, so when I saw it was now available to rent, I jumped at the chance. We wanted a place where we could XC ski right out the door, and this is absolutely the closest access to the wonderful skiing in Paige Meadows and environs.
The house itself was a dream – so lovingly decorated and cozy. The kitchen had absolutely everything we needed. The bathrooms were immaculate. Beds and bedding were perfect. The hot tub was very welcome after a long day of skiing.
As close to a perfect experience as I’ve ever had. We hope to return again this winter!

Lazy Bear fun!
This cabin exceeded our expectations in so many ways! It was super clean, well appointed, cozy, and in the most beautiful and quiet location.;) Our kids loved the large jacuzzi and we all loved the hiking trails (to popular Page Meadows), right out the front door;) We had debates staying in the forest or near the lake and we all decided that the location of Lazy Bear was perfect;) All the Tahoe City activities were less than 15 min down the hill and easily accessible.;) We highly recommend this adorable cabin!;)

It was our first time at Lake Tahoe, and we could’ve chosen a better house. Apart from being cute and well appointed the house was centrally located, easy to get to Squaw Valley where we skied and close to Tahoe city. If I ever go out to Lake Tahoe again I will certainly won’t test house. We were informed once we got there that the dishwasher it was broken, however they took $100 off of our bill because of this inconvenience, I thought that was generous.

Really wanted to like this place
I really wanted to like this place. Don't get me wrong, the cabin itself is very nice - beds are comfortable, ample seating in living room, kitchen fully stocked w/ all necessities (bring your own spices, oils, etc)., and lovely patio and hot tub. However, dealing with the property management company, in particular the Guest Services Manager (Jenn), was very frustrating. I had either a conversation or numerous texts for 5 out of our 6 days that we were there. I finally had to tell the person to not text me anymore as she just didn't get my overt hints to leave me along. This is something that could have been resolved prior to our stay. And the issue was only resolved because new renters were coming in and the property manager wanted the issue to be resolved for them and not us. So at the end of the day, while the property is nice please be aware that the property manager doesn't have doesn't seem to have your best interests in mind.

We appreciate the feedback but wanted to bring a little insight to this guests review. Unfortunately, the fridge broke prior to their stay. While we provided them with a loaner fridge to use upon their arrival, this guest expressed their disappointment. We put forth all of our resources and we were able to get a brand new fridge delivered to the house the next day. We attempted to reach out to the guests to give them an ETA and make sure we would be able to access the property, and since we did not hear back from them, our team and the appliance delivery vendor showed up as scheduled. At which point, the guest had changed their mind and refused to let anyone enter the property. We put a lot of resources forth to make this happen during their stay, to only be blind sighted by the guest. We truly did our best and attempted to rectify the situation which is why we also felt it fair to provide them with a refund at the end of their stay due to the inconvenience. We are happy the guests overall enjoyed the home but are sad to see this review.
We had a great weekend at Lazy Bear Cabin. We were a family of 4 from the Bay Area skiing at Squaw. The place was VERY clean. It was also very cozy - couches, blankets, fireplace, etc. I love to cook and the kitchen was well-equipped.
The property manager was also very communicative with check-in and checkout and responded quickly when I indicated there was very little TP and no laundry detergent - they brought some. the next day, The only con was it is a bit tucked away up in the hill and several miles from main road. Not a big deal, especially if you want to be off beaten path!

adorable cabin right next to Paige Meadows for hiking/biking
Very nicely decorated, comfortable, clean (except for kitchen rug), very well equipped cabin. If you are into hiking or mountain biking it is a perfect location in a quiet neighborhood. 5 mins down hill to the lake, near Sunnyside.
This cabin was perfect for two families with kids! The upstairs loft/bedroom is a wonderful space for the kids. Super cozy throughout with lots of warm blankets in every room. It’s beautifully furnished and very charming. Hot tub is a bonus! Kitchen is on the small side, but it works just fine. We had the best time and would definitely stay at Lazy Bear cabin again!

Already looking to rebook for another stay. Highly recommend this rental.
