About the host

Hosted by Kelvin Friedel

Host profile image
We are a family of 5, who have enjoyed this cabin for the past 10 years, as our kids were growing up. We have used it a lot in the winter, as well as the summer, but enjoy it year round. We live in the Bay Area and try to make it up there as often as life and work allows.

Why they chose this property

We wanted to find a "cabin in the woods" and that is exactly what we found. The pine walls add to the feeling that you are really getting away to a mountain retreat in the High Sierras. It is close to the Tahoe Donner ski area, as well as Sugar Bowl, Boreal and Squaw Valley.

You are close to Lake Tahoe, if you want to see the beauty it holds, or just a short trip to Donner Lake.
