Great stay!

This cabin location and size was perfect for our family stay. The short walk to the lake was convenient and it was a short drive from stores and restaurants, although with the well stocked kitchen we cooked every night at home. We will definitely be back!

Absolutely wonderful ski vacation!

I came up with a few friends and our dog, and the folks running this place were more than welcoming! Parking in the winter is tight for 2 SUVs, but the jacuzzi and snuggly vibes of this home are amazing. Thanks for such a lovely stay!

We loved our stay in Tahoe Pines. The cabin and back outer area were absolutely wonderful and everything was there that we needed for our week in beautiful West Shore Lake Tahoe. We walked to the pier and beach every morning and hiked the trail up the street a few times during our stay. The weather could not have been more perfect. Great restaurants are a short drive away and the kitchen is well stocked for cooking in. Thank you for a great 2025 getaway!

Great spot

The property was just like the photos. Very clean, easily accessible in winter - in the flats, just a few blocks from the lake. Stayed warm and cozy, enjoyed the hot tub, and the kitchen was well-appointed.

This is a traditional cabin-style property with all the amenities of home. We lacked for nothing during our stay. We enjoy the west shore, away from the busier parts of Tahoe, and the home allowed us to have an enjoyable family vacation.

Great spot to ski at Homewood.

We were looking for a dog friendly spot close to Homewood and we found it. Hot tub was awesome - great kitchen and comfy beds. Nice spot to watch movies on a big sectional. Big thumbs up!
