  • Summary:

    The Lazy Golden Cabin



    The Space:

    VHR Permit: 073140

    Transient Occupancy Tax: 068292

    Max occupancy: 6

    Bedrooms: 3

    Occupancy is limited during quiet hours between 10:00 p.m. and 8:00 a.m.



    Golden mornings come easily at this charming cabin-style retreat.

    Nestled in a quiet neighborhood, this cozy home offers the perfect balance of comfort and convenience — centrally located near the lake, mountain adventures, and scenic hiking trails.



    Inside, unwind by the warmth of the wood-burning fireplace, the heart of the inviting living space. The full kitchen is thoughtfully equipped with pine cabinetry, full-size appliances (including a French door refrigerator), and all the cookware needed to prepare your favorite meals.



    Modern amenities include a washer/dryer, room-darkening shades, board games, and thoughtful touches for families such as a high chair, baby gates, children’s dinnerware, and toys for little ones. A dedicated desk workspace in one bedroom provides a quiet spot for remote work or online learning.



    Step outside and relax beneath the towering pines that shade the peaceful backyard, or enjoy your morning coffee on the furnished front porch. Please note: the partial A/C system, located near the sliding doors, cools only the front portion of the home and not the bedrooms.

Another great trip to South Lake Tahoe

This was our second trip to the same house. We loved it and we will try to come back next year. We may even try to come back during the summer if available. Great house for a family. And if you have a dog, the fence yard is a plus, and the neighborhood dog friendly. Beds are super comfy.

Great location and home

The home had all that we needed. Great private backyard with propane fire pit (although we had to buy our own tank to use). Was a little surprised that while the home was pet friendly, we were not allowed to leave our small dog alone in the house. Made it a challenge to coordinate excursions we planned to do. Overall still a great time

Amazing Stay!

We absolutely loved everything about this home, the kitchen was very well appointed and has all new appliances. The home was incredibly clean and had plenty of everything one may need, towels, sheets, pillows, etc. As an added bonus if you have small children (we don't) there are plenty of toys and even some fun stuff for the kids to play with outside that are in the garage. All around a wonderful stay, the home, the neighborhood and the proximity to everything. Would absolutely return for another stay. Thank you for the great memories made with our family. This was my oldest son's first little vacation since returning home from active duty in the Army and he was very happy with our choice of vacation rental. Your home was perfect. Thank you for sharing it with us.

South Lake Tahoe Gem: A Cozy Retreat

This charming Lake Tahoe cottage was a delightful find. Nestled in a peaceful neighborhood, it offered the perfect blend of comfort and tranquility. The cozy interior, complete with a well-equipped kitchen, made it a pleasure to call home. As a dog owner, I appreciated the fenced yard with the green lawn. It matched the listing photos perfectly, which was fantastic. The yard was amazing for late nights when the forest came alive. It provided a safe and spacious space for my furry friend to roam. While there was a minor hiccup with the initial cleanliness, the property manager promptly addressed the issue. Overall, this hidden gem exceeded expectations and is highly recommended for anyone seeking a cozy and comfortable Lake Tahoe getaway.

1157 Early dawn trail.

Easy check in. Dishwasher running for hours after check in, found out it was empty? Later during stay loaded and tried to run, but ended emptying it and washing all dishes by hand ( all dishes inside were dirty and still dry?) Leak under sink( someone had placed a bowl under prior?) Evidence of mouse under sink and mouse poop by kitchen table. We realize that it is a cabin but it could use some additional pest/weatherproofing. Tried to report to someone but only reached automated options. Rest of stay was good, nice location, comfortable beds, clean bathrooms and nice backyard. Ten o'clock checkout was doable but eleven would have been better.

Good location and well-stocked with basics. Good space for small group 4 people. The space is clean and well-taken care of. A neighborhood of mostly rentals so it is quiet during the week and busier on holidays and weekends. We enjoyed our stay and hope to return soon.

Late Winter Escape

Booked the house for a week of work/play. The house is setup well for remote work - large kitchen (plenty of room) and a desk setup in the master bedroom. Very nice furnishings with a woodburning stove in the family room. Large backyard was great fun for the pups. 10/10 experience - would def stay here again.

Great house in a great location!

This was a very nice and new looking house along pioneer trail. Convenient to Kirkwood, Heavenly, and restaurants along hwy 50. For being a smaller house it was very spacious and comfortable inside. Lots of room for people to eat and sit around the TV and fireplace. Very clean with nice amenities. It was the best Tahoe property I've rented yet for our 1 year old daughter. The house was filled with toys, a crib, and a high chair. Made our packing a lot easier. We don't have a dog at the moment but if we did I would have loved to take them here too to run around in the fenced in back yard.

Small But Mighty Cabin

Our family of 4 (including 2 kids under age 10) loved staying at the Lazy Golden Cabin. It's a small house, but somehow it never felt cramped. Clearly the inside of the cabin has been renovated and they did a great job of making the house feel larger than it is. The house was clean and very well equipped with everything from games and toys for young children to a well stocked kitchen (knives, pots and pans, plenty of glasses and cups) and recommendations for restaurants and things to do. The enclosed backyard was nice for our dog and our kids, who enjoyed playing there during a major snowfall. The cabin is well situated in South Lake Tahoe. We didn't ski, but we were close to other activities like tubing/sledding, ice skating, Heavenly Village, restaurants, a grocery store, etc. Vacasa, the company managing the cabin, was extremely helpful. They were available by phone and text throughout our stay and were always prompt with their replies. I highly recommend this home and wouldn't hesitate to stay there again.

One of our best time in Tahoe

We stayed at the Lazy Golden Cabin for 8 days this winter. The house is in South lake Tahoe, but not too close to the noise of the city center. We love the house. It was large enough for all of us, 3 adults and one dog. It could accommodate more people, and we have talked about coming back with another couple. The house was recently renovated but retains great cabin charm. It has all the amenities that you need. We loved to cook and the kitchen had everything that we needed to cook some great food. Me and my wife worked remotely for the entire week. The internet was perfect for the two of us, even during the the snow storm. Our dog really enjoyed playing in the snow in the large fenced back-yard. Th neighborhood was great. Neighbors would stop to talk to us when we walked outside with the dogs. One neighbor helped us to retrieve our dog frisbee. We felt almost home even if it was not our house. The owner has a contractor to plow the snow when it reaches 4 inches, and we could use the garage for the car which was a huge plus during the two snow storms. Definitely a place we would like to revisit or even a house we thought we could own. One minor thing: there was not coffee K-cups when we arrived. If you arrive late, try to come with your own K cups if you want a coffee the next morning. Not a big deal. Overall, we had a great stay. It was one of our favorite trip to Tahoe. The garden should work great in the summer as well.

I very much enjoyed my stay. The house is perfect for dogs with a fully enclosed yard. There are also multiple hiking trails that you can get to by just walking out the front door. The internet was fast and will definitely support work from home. Good, fast communication with host. I hope to be back soon!
