Cozy Pine Cove Cottage #5

There is no doubt that the crisp mountain air, the smell of pine, and the sound of waves against the shore will make your Lake Tahoe getaway unforgettable.

Vacation to this charming vintage beach cottage, just steps from one of the North Shore's most beautiful white sand beaches. This 2-bedroom, 1-bath Tahoe Vista retreat blends the charm of yesteryear with the modern conveniences of today. Whether you're here to relax by the water or get out and explore, this cozy getaway has it all.

This home is in an unbeatable location. Simply walk out the door to the shores of the Lake Tahoe Beach. Rentals for paddle boards, kayaks, jet skis, and ski boats are just a few blocks away. A grocery store is only 2 minutes by car—or take a short 10-minute stroll. Walk to nearby restaurants, or head 10 minutes down the road to the casinos for more entertainment.

Inside, the cottage has a warm and inviting living space with a sofa, dining table for four, large flat screen TV, and a peek view of the lake. The well-maintained lawn area provides a great space for kids to play after a day at the beach.

* Steps from a sandy Lake Tahoe beach (sand varies with lake level/snowpack)

Several major ski resorts are also within a short drive, making this cottage a perfect year-round getaway.

Great location and comfortable cottage

We stayed at Pine Cove for two days. It's in a great location, easy access to the beach and close to South Lake restaurants and activities. We had a great time, and our dog also loved it and was comfortable.

The place is located in a beautiful location right on the lake. The layout while small on the smaller end is very functional. We enjoyed our stay.

Fantastic cabin with private beach access

Our stay at pine cove was amazing! The cottage was clean, heated and has all the basic amenities you could ask for. Our favorite part was having access to a private beach, and our little dog had the best time playing on the beach. Check in was pretty smooth except for a little error with the lockbox passcode, but the host was very quick to respond and sent us the correct code immediately. Overall, we highly recommend this property and we’d definitely stay here again!

great location

The unit was perfect for 4 of us and our pup. Had everything we needed. Beds were comfy. Would be nice to have some kitchen chairs at the little table - the big leather chairs were a bit large and made it a bit of a squeeze to get in and out...Couch was great and all the amenities were great. Will definitely be renting here again!

Only issue is WiFi is slow, so if you need to do work while there, might not be optimal.

Great Little Cottage!

We had a great stay in this cute cottage. It is small as described, but it met our needs. The beach area is not private (as described in a review, not the listing), but it has private access. The location is fantastic, and we enjoyed walking to restaurants instead of trying to find parking. Somethings to note: a grill is listed as an amenity in the ad, but you are unable to use it due to a city ordinance. Also, the washer and dryer is not in the unit but is available for use. The water level is high this year (yay!) but that means there is not as much beach as the picture shows. Overall, we really enjoyed our stay and would rebook.

Pine Cove Cottage

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was somewhat dirty. I was very happy with the location. I was somewhat dissatisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I do not recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: First time staying at this location. Great spot unfortunately cottage did not measure up to expectations. Furniture was very soiled and stained. Couch and side chairs. Cottage may have been lightly cleaned prior to our arrival but was far from satisfactorily clean. Kitchen cabinets had soda drippings on cabinets as well as walls. Broken front door blinds and windows would not shut properly. Unit needs a deep cleaning after season.

Would stay again

The property is just as it’s described. It was extremely clean. I stayed there with just my parents so that was perfect for the three of us. Everything that we needed was included. The only view of the lake from inside the condo is from the kitchen window. that part I wasn’t very clear on, but that could be my mistake. There is a unit in front of this one that’s lake front, but the beach was amazing, we basically had it to ourselves. I would definitely stay here again just one issue when I checked in the toilet was running and it stayed running the entire time we were there, but I did not call about that to be fixed and then I couldn’t understand how to use the lock box , so I was basically leaving the door unlocked without knowing it and instructions would be nice and then the back door did not lock which is not a problem for me, but I think my parents felt a little unsafe
