A Fall Getaway
This small cozy cabin was perfect for us; close to Tahoe City and in a flat area which was good for walking. The kitchen was fully stocked with dishes, utensils, and pots and pans for all the cooking needs and appeared to be bran new. The beds were very comfortable and there was plenty of room to store our clothes and suitcases. I would rent this cabin again for a short getaway.
Perfect cabin for a family of four. Stocked with everything we needed to be comfortable. We loved the access to the park and private beach. We were down there each day spending time swimming and at the playground. Easy walking to all the sunnyside restaurants as well. We only got in our car to float the Truckee. We hope to be back.

Our Yearly Retreat
I recently spent five enchanting nights in a Tahoe cabin nestled among towering trees, and I cannot recommend it highly enough. From the moment I arrived, the serene beauty of the location took my breath away. Surrounded by lush greenery, the cabin offered a tranquil escape from the hustle and bustle of daily life.
The interior of the cabin was equally impressive, with a cozy yet spacious layout that made me feel right at home. The large windows allowed for ample natural light and offered stunning views of the forest, making it the perfect spot for morning coffee or an evening glass of wine. The rustic decor added a charming touch, and the modern amenities ensured a comfortable stay.
One of the highlights of my stay was the outdoor space. The cabin featured a lovely deck with comfortable seating, ideal for soaking in the serene environment and listening to the gentle rustling of the trees. The location was also perfect for nature enthusiasts, with numerous hiking trails just a short walk away. I enjoyed several hikes through the beautiful terrain, each offering its own unique scenery and wildlife sightings.
In addition to the natural beauty, the cabin was conveniently located near some fantastic local attractions. A short drive took me to the shores of Lake Tahoe, where I enjoyed paddleboarding and swimming in the crystal-clear waters. There were also several charming restaurants and shops in the nearby towns, providing plenty of options for dining and entertainment.
Overall, my stay in this Tahoe cabin was nothing short of magical. The combination of a beautiful, peaceful location, comfortable accommodations, and easy access to outdoor activities and local attractions made it an unforgettable experience. I highly recommend this cabin to anyone looking for a serene retreat in the heart of nature.

Ideal location and accommodations! Easy walk to the lake/beach, market and restaurants. Very relaxing and enjoyable time at Lake Tahoe.
We loved this cabin! It had everything we needed for our little family. The cabin itself is updated, kitchen has all you need, including kid friendly plates and utensils. They even have a booster seat available! The bathrooms were clean and we had no problem bathing our toddler in the tub. Hot tub worked great after a day in the snow! The only thing I'd say that needs an upgrade is the couch - it wasn't very comfortable (super low back) but that's subjective. Also, the beach that is walking distance is closed for the winter season - we were bummed about that. Thanks so much for a great stay!
Our family (including dog) stayed for 5 nights in July and found the house very comfortable. Kitchen had everything for a casual cook. Backyard had lots of room for kids and dog to run around including secure fencing. Two decks, hot tub and BBQ made for nice lounging when not enjoying the HOA beach at the Lake which was a short walk.
We came for the Tahoe Concours at Obexer’s and had a great weekend. Close to west shore fun spots… HOA, Sunnyside, bike trail, hiking, as well as to Tahoe city.

Great Summer Rental on the West Shore!
My family and I loved staying at this great home on the West Shore! The location of the house is the best part. Just a couple of blocks from the private Tahoe Park beach, as well as West Shore Market, Sunnyside and Shadyside. The house is also well appointed with everything you need for a very comfortable stay. Also, for those with dogs the completely fenced in yard is really nice to allow your dog some space to roam without the worry of them wandering off. I hope to be back at this home next summer!

Sunlit Pines House
We had a wonderful time spending a week on the West Shore.
The house was perfect for our family and friends.
Just a few things that would have made the house a little more user friendly. About 4 days into our stay we ran out of toilet paper, dish soap and dishwasher soap. Your cleaners did not provide enough supplies to last the entire week. I had to go to town to buy these supplies to get us through the week.
Also the french doors that lead out on the back patio would not lock making this a security issue. I had to use a small rope to insure no bears could get in. Plus one of the smoke detectors malfunctioned and had to be removed from the ceiling to deactivate. I contacted your office when checking out.
I know this sounds a little picky but it's the little things that make a difference in our stay.
Thanks for listening and we'll be in touch. Mike Glazbrook
