I absolutely loved this house. You can tell it is a very well loved house by the owners! It had fabulous amenities and great cookware— there was literally nothing missing! The house was so kid friendly, too— my 5 and 3 year old were excited about the bunk bed and toys, and the adults were excited about the kid friendly plates, etc. also a huge bonus that it is dog friendly as we love Tahoe with our pup!
It is a tiny A-frame and every inch of the house is maximized for space. It is a great location, right at the base of the rubicon trail. If you have a very car enthusiastic 3 year old Kid with you, it’s an added bonus to watch the off-road vehicles come and go all day. It can get a bit busy in that regard, but the street itself is quiet, tucked away from the highway noise. We enjoyed great walks to Chambers, Tahoma market, and more. I can’t wait to stay here again! Thank you Scott and sue for everything!

Loved the location and the charm and coziness of this cabin. Super ran and had everything we needed and then some. I will say I was nervous at first because the listing said "electric fireplace" butit was gas with an electric remote...super awe!

We had SO much fun staying at this adorable cabin. The beds were comfortable, the kitchen was stocked with nearly every tool you might need, the game closet was full of interseting games (including our favorite, Catan!) and the deck was the perfect place to enjoy morning coffee and afternoon reading. The cabin is tucked into a neighborhood so you are away from the busy-ness that sometimes comes with Tahoe in the summer and it was fun to watch all of the 4-wheelers headed up to the Rubicon trail head. Thank you for sharing your place with us! It was such good family time.

We rented this place for a family reunion in summer. It is a great little cabin, perfect for 2 people, a very well appointed kitchen, right at the start of the Rubicon OHV trail, with mountain biking/hiking trails within walking distance & a quiet neighborhood. It has it all!
Wish there was a way to give 4.5 stars, instead of 5. There is not enough furniture in the bedrooms, so be prepared. The bedrooms have no dressers & one of the bedrooms had no accessible closet. It was challenging for we had nicer clothes for parties and dinners.
But overall a great place & we plan to book there again!
