"Camp STAR-Lite"

National Park themed, bright and sunny, south facing, one-bedroom, front unit of ranch-style duplex in easy downtown location in walking distance to the beach!

This unit features luxury vinyl throughout, timeless white appliances. Stylish Herringbone butcher-block countertops and pearlescent Subway tile backsplash brighten up the full kitchen that’s well-stocked with Fiestaware dishes, copper touches, pots and pans and an assortment of essential gadgets for your cooking pleasure!

The furnishings are a mix of vintage and new and give the space a homey and cozy vibe. Plush velvety throw pillows and bedding, smart TV for streaming, deep comfortable couch and a gas fireplace for warming up on colder nights come together for a top experience.

The private bedroom has a Queen bed. This is a platform bed with a 12" deep, medium plush, gel memory mattress.

Bed #2 is a self-inflating, Queen air bed that's provided automatically for groups of 3 or 4 and can be requested for smaller groups.
There is also a dedicated workspace in the bedroom for those who need to tuck themselves away while working remotely.

The bathroom is complete with heated flooring and a deep bathtub for soaking.
In the summer, there’s also a private patio with teak bistro set up for 2 guests to enjoy coffee or to dine al fresco in the summer.

The hosted home is located walking distance to Kings Beach State Park and sandy beach (8-minute walk or 2 minutes by car). Kings beach is a buzzing and lively neighborhood that's mostly flat and very walkable.

I don’t know where to start. Our stay with Stephany and Duane felt more like we were crushing at our friends cabin. This is by far the most thoughtful rental i’ve ever been in to. I have stay at rentals that charged 5 for extra toilet paper before. When you text Stephany, she is very personable and very kind. She is very quick to answer, always offers help. We drove to Kings Beach from San Diego which took around 9 1/2 hours and walked into a snack bowl with a card welcoming us. The place was packed with items that were provided for us in case we forgot to pack something. Whole personal care items from toothbrush to cotton swabs, beach blankets, beach chairs, beverage flasks, cooler, face and body sunscreen, aleo cream for sunburns… I heeded pliers to change my guitar string and yes, they had it in a tool box. But mostly, they share theeir kayaks with you and that is a magical experience. I highly suggest everyone to have that experience. Stephany and Duane cares about their guest!!!We traveled all around the Lake Tahoe and our favorite town was Kings Beach. It’s big enough that you have everything around you but small enough to slow you down. Its about 7 blocks downtown with many local shops around. Closest supermarket is around 7-8 min walk or 2 min drive. Camp Star-Lite is in great location under the alpine trees at Kings Beach. Its2 blocks to the downtown, 3 blocks to the lake ramp (for kayaks), around 4 blocks to the beach. All accessible less than a 5 min walk.

Wish we could have stayed longer !

We absolutely loved our stay at this cabin in Kings Beach! The property was charming and we appreciated all the thoughtful details and amenities especially in the well-equipped kitchen. From the moment we walked in, we just felt relaxed and comfortable :) The goodie bags for BOTH of my dogs was such a nice and sweet touch. It was the perfect retreat for a relaxing getaway. Thank you Stephanie and Duane for allowing us to stay in your amazing home.

Awesome Place to Stay

This spot is such a great place to stay in North Tahoe. It is walkable to the beach, shops, restaurants, and activities. It’s quiet and safe. My favorite thing about it is how it’s decorated. I’m a big National Parks lover, and this place has tons of parks featured in its decor. It’s so cozy and really well designed and laid out. My husband and I stayed with our infant daughter and loved it. Additionally, Stephanie and Duane were amazing hosts. They were communicative, kind, helpful, and accessible. I cannot recommend this place enough!
