Loved the house, and the location. House was very comfortable and homey. Having a fenced yard is a bonus when you have dogs. The yard was spacious, and tons of seating and places to relax. Having a jacuzzi was another bonus. It was clean, hot, and ready to go.

We were absolutely in love with this property!! It was well kept and clean, everything worked and it felt super welcoming. They went above and beyond and had toys for kids and board games for adults. Perfect location and plenty of room. Beautiful view of the lake and lots of open windows to see it. Can’t wait to stay here again!!

Lovely cabin with great view of the lake!

My friends and I had an amazing time at this cabin! It was so cozy yet spacious and was perfect for our winter weekend trip to Tahoe. The hot tub was such a nice plus on top of it all. Would recommend!

Amazing stay!

This was a wonderful place to stay, the cabin is very cozy, comfortable and has all the amenities we needed. We loved how dog friendly the place was, they had dog bowls to use, a fenced in yard area and didn’t ask any annoying follow-up questions about dog breeds. The location is beautiful and it’s a short drive to Tahoe City and Carnelian Bay. The next time I’m planning a vacation in Tahoe I’ll definitely be looking to stay here again.

Our stay at Dancing Bear Den was wonderful. Our family enjoyed our stay in the quaint house that met the needs of the whole family. There was plenty of space inside and out for 6 adults and 2 teens. We particularly enjoyed the fenced yard where we could hang out and enjoy the hot tub. The little peek through the trees at the lake is nice. We would absolutely stay again.

Cozy cabin

Our family of 4 had a great ski week in the cabin. Great location to get to Alpine and Palisades. We enjoyed the fireplace and hot tub. Bunk bed room worked well for our family, but worth noting the room is a loft above living room. Would definitely consider staying here again.

Great place that also allows pets

This was a great house for our family of 4 plus dog. Ted communicated quickly and consistently. He went above and beyond to help make our stay relaxing. The rooms were comfortable and we enjoyed a snowy day playing in the yard and warming up in the family room. We would definitely stay there again.

3 Days of Relaxation

Loved the location (partway between King's Beach and Tahoe City) with a nice view of the lake. Lots of board games and DVDs for entertainment. Kitchen had everything we needed. Such a comfortable home! We really look forward to being able to book your property again and bringing our dogs, who would enjoy the large back yard!
