As cozy as a cabin can offer!

We really enjoyed the time in this very cozy cabin! It’s like a little fairy house tucked nicely in a fairy garden. Everything is as described and the host is very caring for taking the time to ensure that we arrive with no trouble accessing the property. There is enough towels, basic essentials to last us during our stay. We would like to point out that when using a GPS such as Maps or Googlemaps to get there be careful that it may direct you to the street that is BEFORE the actual street of the property. So it’s best to be familiarize with some street names that surrounds the property and only turn to the ACTUAL street name of the property instead of the name directed by the gps…it took us some re-routes before we arrive at the destination…HOWEVER…Once you arrived in front of the place, its coziness is inviting enough to help us forget the trouble we experienced. We are glad to have made this choice!

Tahoe Spring Break

The property was exactly what we needed. Having the fenced yard for our dogs was a plus, hot tub was great after boarding each day. We cooked meals and the kitchen was fully stocked. Plenty of games and movies to keep you occupied. TVs had all the streaming services. We will stay here again in the future. 10/10

Terrible neighbor

Beautiful little cabin, very close to restaurants, shopping and the lake. The high fence around the entire property was good for keeping the dogs safe and close by. The guy who lives next door is completely unhinged. He went on a raciest and homophobic tirade, while throwing and breaking things. He made my wife very uncomfortable and she didn’t feel safe being outside or at the cabin.

Great location and cute house

This was my first time in Tahoe and I had done a lot of research. I initially wanted lake front, but was having trouble finding something in my price range. I traveled with 4 other adult women for my 40th birthday. We loved this house because we enjoy each others company, however, if you are looking for privacy, it would be a little tricky. Upstairs is an A frame house (you're sleeping with your head close to the ceiling). There are 2 beds in the bedroom (1 full 1 queen perhaps?). One bed was VERY soft and we used it to hold luggage. The rest of the loft had 2 twin beds (I think these may have been kid beds though because feet were close to hanging off) and a queen bed which was very comfortable and cozy. The 1/2 bath upstairs had THE BEST AND LOUDEST FAN! Loved all the bear decor. There are ample windows and a swamp cooler which makes the best white noise. I had asked the company if there was a cooler in the house, and they said no, but we found 2 while we were there. The full bathroom is very cute and love the small touches in the shower, however, the water pressure was meh. The porch and big trees are lovely and it was so nice to sit outside in the morning with coffee. The location is great (a 5 minute walk to Heavenly Village). Scooters are prevalent and there is a great scooter/bike/walking path. You can park your scooter right outside this houses location. The TV is nice and we loved having the fire place when August got VERY chilly.

Winter wonderland

Very nice stay in beautiful Lake Tahoe. When we arrived at the cabin, the front yard and driveway was snow free despite having snowed the day before . I loved that the whole place was gated in, felt very safe. Quiet neighborhood no problems with neighbors. All the streets were snow free. Liked the coffeemaker included, nice touch. We loved the fireplace! We are definitely going to be staying again in the future! The owner was very respectful and answered all of my questions promptly and even called while we were on our way to make sure we were okay! Very happy with our stay!

Cozy stay, great location

Overall, this home is very cozy with a convenient location. You can walk to the Heavenly Gondola (less than 10 minutes) and a few blocks from the Heavenly village area. There is no dishwasher in the kitchen and in general could use some updating, but we would stay again. Thank you!

Nice older cabin

We enjoyed our stay. Hard to find a place that accepts pets. Pretty trees and plants in the front yard. Front porch is bigger than looks in photos. Property is very old so some conveniences are missing, like no dishwasher, no AC, not a lot of outlets or 3 prong outlets by beds, etc. I wouldn’t recommend for families with very young children, toddlers, etc.

This cabin is cute and well equipped with everything you need for a few days away. The location was great with Heavenly Village just a short walk, Edgewood Golf Course, Harvey's outdoor stage and the casinos if you're into that. The place was clean and quiet and perfect for a small family.

Small but great location

Our family of 5 enjoyed the long 4th of July weekend in this quaint cabin. Check in was a hassle since we had to go out of the way to pick up the key. When I tried calling the property manager and message them too I got zero answer. Other than that it was a great little place near the lake. Front porch doubles the living space and the hot tub was great. The two bedrooms upstairs are essentially one big sleeping area but it was fine for our family. The location makes it really great!!

Cozy Cabin in a Great Location

Cabin is so cute and cozy! Driveway comfortably fit 3 cars. Hot tub was large and accommodated 5 ppl easily. The location is PREMIUM and its quiet! 5 min walk to restaurants, bars, shopping, coffee. The host laid out each persons towels (5 each!) and had extra shampoo and soap. Only cons: It is dark inside the cabin, there are lights but its just the way the cabin is oriented. The beds were a little lumpy and the pillows a little too squishy BUT there was 5 separate beds which was a HUGE plus. Overall I would stay here again & again.
