Cute cabin in a great location

Stayed at the cabin for a few nights while snowing boarding at Sierra At Tahoe. Close location to the mountain, lots of good food options in town too. The cabin was a great space for my family.

Cozy cottage for spring break

This was the a great place to relax and recharge after snowboarding all day. The kitchen was well equipped, the beds were comfortable, and the hot tub was much appreciated. Nice and secluded from the hustle and bustle of South Lake Tahoe but convenient to 3 ski resorts and the grocery store.

This was a great spot for us to relax and meet with nearby vacationing family. Host Deb and Art were easy to contact and very gracious and helpful. Fresh flowers and a welcome basket of goodies awaited us when we entered. Thank you for providing a “home base” for us to explore this beautiful Tahoe area!

Such a lovely cabin

For our second year in a row, we were able to stay here over MLK weekend. Everything went wonderfully. The owners are wonderful to work with, especially considering we received 4' of snow over the weekend! We will keep coming back, as it is our favorite place to stay in Lake Tahoe.

My boys and I enjoyed the cabin! It was the perfect fit for us. My boys enjoyed the hot tub after a day of skiing. I enjoyed the kitchen layout, as the boys hung out at the counter while I made dinner. Perfect locale for skiing and staying away from crowds.

South Tahoe Snow Central

Great spot in South Lake Tahoe central to all the best. We were able to conveniently ski at Kirkwood, Heavenly, and Sierra-at-Tahoe in one three day weekend and get the best of everything. Having space to spread out and relax was divine compared to the cramped condos at the resorts. And super easy drive anywhere in South Lake Tahoe. Will be back!

Beautiful Cottage

This cottage was so clean you could eat off the floor. Debbie was wonderful to work with. She responded quickly with all our questions. The cottage had everything a renter needed and more. The location was quiet. There is a grocery up the road. If we return to Lake Tahoe, we will stay here again.

Home Away From Home

Our stay at Christmas Valley was great! Although we had little contact with the hosts, you could tell that they had thought about our stay before we arrived. Due to traffic control, our 4 hour drive took 10.5 hours and arrived at 1:30am. Without asking, the hosts made sure that we didn't have any trouble finding their cottage, leaving the lights on inside and outside the house.Once we did get inside, the house was well decorated and clean. They had all of the kitchen supplies we needed and the bedrooms were welcoming. It was as if we were visiting our friends house for the weekend.We really enjoyed our stay there and would return again.

Relaxing weekend in Tahoe

We had that fire roaring every night and it warmed the entire house. The hot tub was great. Debbie had it all warmed up and ready to use when we got there. TVs in every room was appreciated as was all the viewing options. The kitchen had everything we needed. The cottage was close enough to be able to get to everything within 20 minutes, but far enough out in the woods to avoid all the congestion in town. Debbie was responsive and addressed all of our needs. The beds were very comfortable. Everything was perfect. We had no issues with anything, which is exactly what I look forward to.

About the host

Hosted by Debbie Conde

Host profile image
Residents of Tahoe for 40 years. Delighted to share what we love about Tahoe to visitors. Happy to help you navigate the local area, and anxious to answer all your questions about the Tahoe, Carson, Virginia City and Reno attractions that you may want to visit during your holiday

Why they chose this property

We chose this house for the location! Quiet neighborhood, away from the crowds. But minutes from all the activities that visitors come here for, and that South Lake Tahoe has to offer. About 20 minutes from downtown South Lake Tahoe. Grocery shopping 5 minutes from the cabin. Close to ski resorts, Sierra, Kirkwood, and Heavenly. Cross country skiing out your door. This is ideally a perfect couples getaway close to many outdoor activities. Very popular in summer for hiking and biking enthusiasts because of the back country roads and trail access. Perfect location for the Death Ride. About 15 minutes to Echo Lake.

What makes this property unique

Quiet forested cabin in residential neighborhood featuring a large yard and lawn, natural wild life, mountain views, the Truckee river, convenient access to the back country hiking, cross country skiing, biking trails, ski resorts, and lakes and the beautiful outdoor spaces that Tahoe is known for.
