Romantic Cabin Escape Near Fallen Leaf Lake

Trade the hustle of everyday life for the peace and romance of the mountains at this charming, dog-friendly South Lake Tahoe cabin. Nestled among towering pines and just steps from Fallen Leaf Lake, this secluded retreat is the perfect hideaway for two.
Inside, warm wood-paneled ceilings and rustic accents set the stage for cozy evenings together. Curl up on the sofa with a glass of wine as the wood-burning fireplace crackles, or enjoy a classic movie from the cabin’s collection.
In the morning, sip coffee on the private deck as the sun filters through the trees, or fire up the gas grill for a dinner under the stars. With no WiFi, you’ll have the rare chance to truly unplug and focus on each other.
The fully equipped kitchen makes preparing meals easy, whether it’s a hearty breakfast before a day on the trails or a romantic dinner for two.

Sleeping arrangements:
Upstairs: Cozy queen bed + additional doubles
Downstairs: Twin beds in the open living area

Spend your days walking hand-in-hand along lakeside trails, renting a boat for a serene afternoon on the water, or exploring nearby Lake Tahoe with kayaking, beachside picnics, and sunset strolls. Then return to your cabin retreat for quiet evenings, laughter over board games, and fireside relaxation.
If you’re looking for a romantic escape with the perfect balance of seclusion and adventure, this Tahoe cabin is waiting for you.

Things to Know
Tahoe is home to many animals. You may experience bears, raccoons, mice, and other animals. Meadows are home to many rodents. When these areas are filled with water or snow, these animals move to homes in the area. You may see these animals in or near your home.
With the remote location of this property, there is no internet or cable. There is a cell phone booster in the cabin so that people can still get service, but it is spotty. This is a property for people who want to disconnect from the outside world. Be sure to print out your home guide before arriving.

If you are bringing a dog on your trip, the pet fee is already included in your quote when selecting ‘Yes’ to pets. If you would like to add more dogs, please contact us.

Parking notes: There is free parking available for 2 vehicles.

Dock details: This home is part of an HOA, giving it access to a dock that can be used to hang out on, but not for boats.

Lakeview is on the right side of the road, there are stairs and a green hand rail that go down to the L-shaped dock. There is also a long row of lockers.

Fallen Leaf Lake Cabin

For two people who wanted a base from which to go on day hikes and at which they could disconnect from work and the interweb, it was great. It's small (ideal for 2, not so good for a bigger group unless you want a lot of togetherness), but we had everything we needed other than a coffee maker (we took our own, so no problem). If you want to cook on the grill, take a meat thermometer for anything beyond burgers. There's a great trailhead nearby, and the store has basics. South Lake Tahoe is an easy drive for anything else.

Dock under construction (no private lake access)

We booked this cabin specifically for its easy and private lake access. The listing features 5 pictures of the nearby dock and explicitly mentions how close it is to the cabin. However, when we walked down to the lake, the steps down to the dock were fenced off and the dock was under construction. This was a significant construction project, and, as part of an HOA, the owner was certainly aware of it. So why weren't we? Why hadn't the listing been updated? If this listing had the correct information we could have selected several other properties. We tried to reach Vacasa, the property management company, several times with no luck, waiting on hold for more than 20 minutes. If you want to be walking distance to the lake, we don’t recommend staying here anytime soon. We’ve stayed in Tahoe for more than 20 years, dealing directly with owners (pretty sure VRBO used to stand for Vacation Rentals By Owner) and we’ve always had easy, pleasant experiences. The cabin itself was fine for two people. There was plenty of dust and some questionably clean linens (stains, hair). The dishes were notably dirty. We could have dealt with all this but without the nearby lake access we came for, we left early.

Sadly not happy.

This is my first negative experience with a home and I have been doing this for 10 years. Im not going to go into all the details but the one thing we were majorly disappointed in was the false advertising that we were not necessarily closer to the water than we thought but that we would have a dock to hang out on. Thats why I rented this place, thinking we would get to hang out, play in the water etc. There was no docks for the home. If there were I wouldn't know because we emailed the company and they never responded. In the pictures it makes you feel like its a part of the house, and its not. So be aware.

Charming cottage with filtered lake views

Cherry Leaf Lodge delivered on our desire to find a charming cabin on a lake. The best part was sitting on the deck, reading a book, and watching the sun go down through the trees and over the lake. We appreciated the attention to detail to create a simple, cabin experience from another era, all the way down to the record player, but with key creature comforts of today. Our kids had a delightful time playing games in the living room. We planned ahead, as directed, and lived just fine without WiFi. Thank you!

Adorable Cozy Cabin

This is a perfect little cabin tucked away in the woods with a view of the lake from the living room and deck. There are a couple neighboring cabins close by, but overall great location to be off the beaten path. We could watch the sun set over the mountain every night with a beautiful view of the water. The inside is updated and clean. Our family enjoyed the DVD selection of romantic comedies, and a few kids movies, there is also a record player. We also had access to a private dock. I would suggest using google earth to find it though based on the pictures, property management had no specific directions on where it was located but we did manage to find it. There is no wifi or cell service. So this is a great place to unplug as a family! There is so much to do and explore in the area. We will definitely be back!
