This is the 2nd of hopefully many more times staying at this lovely cabin! It is so cozy and all our guests comment on how comfortable and well appointed the rooms and gathering spaces are. The hottub is amazing and such a wonderful way to end the evening. The cabin is perfectly located with in a few blocks walk of many of the Tahoe City hot spots so you don't even really need to drive much you can simply stroll around! We love this place and we'll be back soon!

It doesn’t say in the ad, but please note outdoor furniture and bbq are only available May-Sept. This place was ok. There was quite a bit of pet hair on the blankets, couches etc. and no view. The best part is the location.

Rustling Grove Cabin is Terrific

Everything about this place is terrific. It has a great layout with a large living room and a well appointed kitchen. The location is perfect: walking distance to Safeway and Tahoe City restaurants and a 15 minute drive to Palisades Ski Resort. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay and hope to stay there the next time we are in Tahoe.

Convenient and Comfortable Tahoe City home

We only stayed a few days in this cozy house, but it hit all of our desired goals: tidy and clean, great outdoor area with a welcomed hot tub after our hikes, as well as convenient to the main strip (without being too loud). Tahoe Getaways were easy to work with, providing fluid communication and clear instructions.

Lake Tahoe Rustling Grove

Had a great time in Lake Tahoe with the family for my birthday week. 🎂The Rustling Grove cabin was a perfect fit for our family. Very clean, spacious and modern. Bonus was having a dog 🐶 park across the street for our grand dog Rex. I highly recommend this home 🏡 for your next visit.

Fantastic home for a family!

Charming home well furnished with an expansive living room, updated kitchen with everything you need to cook in and three bedrooms upstairs. Walking distance to lake, restaurants and retail in Tahoe City. Short drive to Palisades. Can tell owners care about the home and were responsive to any questions we had during our stay. Would definitely recommend.

Lovely weekend at Snow Fest

This wonderful house was super cozy and just perfect for our group. Everything was clean and well appointed. The location was perfect for a lot of the snowfest events that took place right down the street. Where this house is you are right next to some of the best bars and restaurants that all the locals hang out at and it's all within walking distance. The hot tub was the nicest way to end the day after all the festivities! We had a fantastic time and hope to be back next year!

This cabin is in a fantastic location. There are a few things that prospective renters may find helpful. First of all the master bathroom has a window/skylight that exposes users bodies to the meadow adjacent to the property and you need to be careful to stay out of view of the road. It may be that you can’t necessarily see in but it seems like you can! It’s nearly body-length. The other point of interest is that a softball field and elementary school are across the street. It’s not a big deal but one night there were games until 10pm. If you’re into watching local rec softball, this may be a plus for you! Other than that, this cabin is within walking and biking of so many great shops and restaurants.
