Starry Skies - West Shore Cabin. Walk to Private Beach. DOG OK
While conveniently located near all the action, you wouldn't know it by the amount of quiet and privacy enjoyed here. Leave the car and walk to Tahoe House for a cup of the best coffee in town, or take a stroll into Tahoe City to check out concerts in the park or the many dining options. Regardless of the season, the location is perfect for active families, romantic getaways, or a retreat to rest and recharge. If that wasn't enough, this quintessential Tahoe cabin, offers HIGHLY sought after private beach access only utilized by a small number of residents at the Tahoe Sierra Estates beach. Walk right out the back yard, and the beach entrance is just a short walk away.
A functional and efficient floor plan, you enter the house directly into the kitchen. Though basic, it provides the necessary space and tools to feed your clan. Around the corner an updated living area centers around a cozy wood fireplace and multiple dining tables ensure everyone as a comfortable place to eat. In the warmer months, most will be drawn to the back deck area where filtered lake views and towering pines create the ideal setting for evening BBQs.
This Tahoe City cabin is set up to accommodate family gatherings and with seven sleeping areas, it does just that. Upon entering the west end of the home houses three simple guest rooms that share a full bath. With a king, double, and bunk bed there are options for every scenario. On the east end, a similar hall offers three additional rooms with a king, double, and twin singles divided among the rooms. These rooms also share a full bathroom. Have teens or young adults that could use a little more space? No problem. Send the downstairs where a TV sitting area, full bath, and bunk beds provide the perfect teen hang out.
Visitors with mobility concerns will appreciate that the majority of this vacation home (aside form the aforementioned downstairs family room) sits at one level, without stairs to navigate.

Great location and comfortable beds. Place is a bit rustic but reasonable for location and price. The beach access is nice. Since there was no air conditioning they could provide a few more fans for hot summer days.
Perfect space to relax with friends and loved ones!
We had a great stay at this property, it was perfect for what we were looking for. My spouse and I, plus a few friends (other couples), stayed here for a ski weekend at Palisades and to spend time in downtown Tahoe City. Everything was as advertised online, and it was nice for each couple to have their own space (thanks to the multiple bedrooms) but be able to gather in the beautiful living room and open kitchen. Check in was easy, and location was great for what we were looking for. You cannot walk to downtown Tahoe City (maybe you could- but the roads were busy), but it is a quick ride. Very easy to find the house and a large accessible driveway. Would stay here again!
Very comfortable home in a great location. Plenty of space to accomodate a large group. It was perfect for our group of 3 adults and 8 teenagers. An easy walk to the lake to enjoy sunrises and sunsets. And an easy drive to Alpine Meadows. Property manager was very responsive when there was an electrical problem.
