Blackwood Cabin by Tahoe Getaways - West Shore Luxury 3 BR - Walk to Lake, Pet Okay
Welcome to Blackwood Bungalow, a newly renovated, single-story West Shore vacation rental situated in an unbeatable location, just a short stroll to the lake and the scenic Tahoe City bike path. Downtown Tahoe City is only a 10-minute drive away.
Step inside this charming 3-bedroom, 2-bath Lake Tahoe retreat through its inviting blue door, and you'll immediately notice the beautiful decor and modern aesthetic, all while retaining the inviting warmth of a classic cabin. This single-story alpine oasis is flooded with natural light thanks to its open-concept design and vaulted ceilings. The soft blue accents throughout create a calming and relaxing atmosphere. The living room is furnished with comfortable seating, a large flat-screen TV, and a gas fireplace, and seamlessly connects to the dining area and kitchen. The kitchen boasts brand-new stainless steel appliances, a double wall oven, and a gleaming breakfast island with seating for four. Enjoy a meal before taking a leisurely walk down to the lake, where you'll be treated to stunning turquoise waters by day and mesmerizing sunsets in the evening.
Venturing down the hallway, you'll discover three beautifully appointed bedrooms. The primary bedroom features an ensuite bathroom and a king-sized bed, complete with contemporary updates. Two additional guest rooms await, one furnished with a queen-sized bed and the other thoughtfully equipped with two bunk beds. These bedrooms share a tastefully upgraded bathroom. All three bedrooms have their own flat-screen TV.
Outside, you can unwind and take in the surroundings on the front deck or the charming paver-stone patio area. The peaceful backyard, surrounded by towering pine trees, offers a serene atmosphere with comfortable outdoor seating and an unobstructed view of the national forest, perfect for ultimate relaxation and enjoyment. The property also offers a shed, ideal for storing kayaks, paddleboards, skis, and more. Lake Tahoe is just a short walk away and you can enjoy access to the private HOA pier, where you can drop a blanket for a picnic meal or set up your chairs to watch the sunset.

ABOUT THE AREA Located amidst Homewood and Meek's Bay along Lake Tahoe's west shore, Tahoma is a serene and quintessential Tahoe town. A visit to Tahoma feels like a step back in time, with its summer cottages, historic homes, and the family-owned Tahoma Market & Deli. Whether it's summer or winter, the town's tranquility offers a perfect escape from bustling city life.
During the summer months, a must-visit is the public beach at Chamber's Landing, a nice family bike ride away along the bike path, or a quick drive down the road from your home. Here, you'll discover Lake Tahoe's oldest bar. So, whether you're soaking in the sun or arriving by boat, be sure to refresh yourself with the famous Chamber's Crush! To the south, Sugar Pine Point State Park awaits; it's also reachable in about ten minutes by car or bike. It's an ideal spot for a sandy beach picnic, hiking trail exploration, or fishing by the waterside. Just 8 miles away lies Tahoe City, where a vibrant array of eateries, boutiques, cultural events, and more cater to you and your family's desires.
When the ski season arrives, you'll find yourself just minutes away from Homewood Mountain Resort, featuring 2,000 skiable acres of groomed trails and pristine powder tree skiing. Alternatively, journey 15 miles to Palisades Tahoe, the largest ski resort in Lake Tahoe. For added convenience, jump on the FREE public transit system and avoid searching for parking as well!

The house was perfect for our family, dogs and my brother’s family. Had everything we needed. The house had board games, streaming service (Netflix, Disney) which helped to entertain all the kids. Thank you for a comfortable stay!

Family trip to Blackwood Bungalow
Terrific cabin right near Lake Tahoe and West restaurants and market. Tidy and cozy. It utilizes the space very efficiently. Nice big open room and kitchen and nice size three bedrooms. We will definitely be back.
Beautiful house, easy communications with the property management company, had everything we could have asked for and more!
