Indigo Owl by AvantStay | Cabin w/ Firepit | Minutes to Lake & Slopes
Introducing Indigo Owl, your azure haven near Lake Tahoe! With its charming blue exterior welcoming you, this retreat is a stone's throw away from both the lake shore and the thrilling slopes of Homewood Mountain.
Step out onto the deck, where a private hot tub and grill set the stage for ultimate relaxation. After a day of adventure, unwind in the hot tub, fire up the grill for an easy outdoor meal, or gather around the firepit in the al fresco dining area—perfect for enjoying the crisp mountain air and starlit skies.
Inside, classic comforts abound with hardwood floors, wood-beamed ceilings, and an inviting open layout. Snuggle up on the large sectional, enjoy meals at the dining table with bench seating, or whip up something special in the fully equipped kitchen.
Upstairs, three snug bedrooms await, including a primary bedroom with a bonus futon for extra guests. With two bathrooms and convenient amenities like easy parking and in-home laundry, Indigo Owl promises a truly memorable retreat for your Tahoe getaway.

This was such a lovely place! The neighborhood was both quiet and woodsy, while being close to amenities.It was so welcoming driving up with the outdoor lights lit. The house was thoughtfully laid out, the beds were super comfortable, and it was a perfect place for a Tahoe getaway.
The house was exactly as advertised and extremely clean and cozy. Check in process was flawless. We arrived at 1:30am on a cold night and to have check in a entry to work perfectly that was nice.
This was my first time to west lake in 15 years. The house was perfect. Clean, conveniently located, easy to access and well maintained. Can’t recommend it enough!
As soon as we open the door we had a great feeling with tv on with views of Tahoe video playing, fireplace on, basket of hot tub towels near the back deck door..Very clean and well stocked. Very relaxing deck with picnic table and plenty of outdoor chairs with fire pit.
Highly recommended just keep in mind there is not a garage to put bikes motorcycles ect.. only downside for us really everything else was great
We absolutely loved this home and our stay! I really wanted to give this 5 stars but have three small issues with our stay.1- The cleaners were still there at check in and we were waiting outside for them to finish, not the end of the world, but after an 8 hour drive, we wanted relaxation.2- We had not garbage bags to replenish the one in the garbage can. Again, not a big deal, we used the bathroom and bedroom cans until Advantstay delivered more the next morning (thanks!)3- There were several mice scurrying around the downstairs level and definitely can pose a health hazard.Overall we enjoyed our stay!
