About this property

Walk to the lake or hike/bike the nearby trails steps out the front door!

A cute newly renovated vacation cabin close to the lake at Lake Tahoe available for rent. This small quaint back cabin is located off a private road nestled behind a main cabin. A few steps out the front door lead you to tons of hiking and biking trails in the Tahoe National Forest or pack a lunch and take the ½ mile stroll down to the lake where you can enjoy a picnic at Moon Dunes Beach (a much less crowded public beach than Kings Beach). North Tahoe Regional Park is about ¾ mile walk and a 7 mile drive to Northstar Ski Resort. This back cabin was just completely remodeled with a brand new kitchen, bathroom and washer/dryer. One queen bed in the bedroom, two twin beds in the sleeping loft and an uncomfortable pull out couch will make this cabin perfect for a party of 4 or 5, especially little ones that don't mind a pull out couch! New, updated couch as of 8/2020 but still an uncomfortable bed (I have yet to meet a comfortable one)! Please note the bathroom is located through the bedroom, so those staying in the loft will need to cross the bedroom to access the bathroom.
Relax on the front deck and listen to the sounds of the bubbling snow creek in season. The 24 hour Safeway is just 1 mile away, many restaurants are within walking distance, Old Brockway Golf Course is right next to Safeway and the Casinos are just 3 miles away at Stateline. The cabin is tucked away in a quiet neighborhood. Please note, during heavy snow winters you will park your car and use the snow-shoveled path to walk about 100 ft to access the cabin. Note the driveway may be icy at times so please use caution!

Phenomenal little cabin, tucked away off of the hectic and busy lakefront Avenue. Perfectly situated back up in the woods with great little hiking trails directly in front of the cabin. Well maintained, stocked and cared for.

The cabin is ok.Location is not very good, hard to find.The parking is stricky. It’s tucked to the corner and space to turn around big enough but bumpy so you should park outside and walk up.

Great short stay

We had a fantastic couple of nights at the cabin. It was clean, updated, cozy, and centrally located to all the north lake stuff. Communications with the host ahead of time were great, and the kids loved the loft setup. Thank you!

Cozy cabin in great location!

This place exceeded my expectations, for sure! The size was just right for my family of four (we have a 6-yo and a 4-yo) and small dog. The amenities were also good. The location was amazing - walking distance to sandy beach and hiking trail and a short drive to Safeway, good restaurants, mini golf course, and a dog-friendly beach. The owner was very communicative. We'd definitely stay here again!

Great place to stay, very cozy and quiet. Everything you need is there. Lots to do in the near by area as well. We loved the trail by the house for evening walks. Not a deal breaker but the Wi-Fi could be better. Overall beautiful place to stay, we will return.

Sweet cabin in woods

The cabin is very sweet. Liz, the host is available and receptive. It is very close to trails and not far from the beach. We were there in September so it was quiet and no nobody else was there which helped with privacy. We loved it. 💖

Cozy Rustic Cabin in a great location

I had to give this property 5 stars because our overall experience was awesome. The cabin is well maintained and had great new renovations. It had all of the accommodations you would need and was centrally located to trails and of course beautiful lake Tahoe. My only complaint would be the queen bed. It was pretty tough to sleep on, had a huge slope to the middle; it was pretty run down. Unfortunately we could feel the springs in our backs. We would absolutely stay there again!

We thought the cabin was so cozy and fun, even my husband who doesn’t like renting cabins as much as I do The location was terrific for everything we wanted to do, and we loved the area.The cabin was clean, the beds were comfortable, the shower was great, and we had everything we needed inside. The hostess was a pleasure to communicate with and very helpful. She even managed to arrange for perfect weather for us, ha ha. If our kids had still been young, they would’ve loved all the kid goodies tucked away in drawers and cabinets and the two beds in the loft. But we are still young at heart so we enjoyed the goodies and the loft ourselves anyway. Thanks very much Liz!

About the host

Hosted by Liz Stevens

Host profile image
Our family purchased this property in 2011 when our kids were 3 & 5 and it has been amazing to make so many memories at the beach in the summer or on the ski hills in the winter. The property came with a back cabin where we had 1 tenant renting year round. He decided to move and we made the choice to update the back cabin and share it with other families to make such great memories as we have.

Why they chose this property

Location, location location... this cabin is close to the beach, hiking trails, North Tahoe Regional Park and is also located in a quiet quant location off the beaten path.

What makes this property unique

A bubbling snow creek is a few feet away, when hanging on the front porch you can hear the relaxing, flowing creek. This location gives you a feeling of seclusion while having all of the daytime activity and nightlife that Tahoe has to offer so close by.
