Located just two blocks from Lake Tahoe and Ski Run Marina, get outside and relish the radiant California sunshine while sitting by the lake, swimming, fishing, and boating. When you aren't playing in the sand, take peaceful walks around Bijou Community Park, engage in some playful competition at Magic Carpet Golf, and don your skis at Heavenly Ski Resort.

After a day filled with adventure, head for the wood interior of your stay where you can warm up in front of the heat of the stone fireplace or with the home's central heating. The chef of your group will have no issues utilizing the full kitchen's gleaming countertops, stainless steel appliances, and nifty gadgets. When you're ready to eat, gather around the sizable breakfast bar or at the formal dining table.

Wilderness-themed mementos line the home's bedrooms, and a private washer/dryer, Pack-N-Play, and internet access ensure you have all of the amenities you need.

Outside, the enclosed yard provides a pleasant space to grill while listening to the sway of the pines.

Enjoyable stay

We've stayed here several times for our annual family ski trips. We love the location - close to the slopes, near to many great restaurants (Los Mexicanos, Thai on Ski Run, etc). The house is very cozy, comfortable and clean. We'll be staying again!

Loved Our Stay

The house is very nicely located and our family of 4 adults had a very comfortable stay. The kitchen is great with all the home touches. We made good use of the hot tub and the enclosed yards were great for the 2 small pups we had with us. Lovely set up for grilling and enjoying the outdoors. Would love to go back.

Cute cabin

Cabin was great and cozy and great for our friend vacation! Only issue was trying to get enough towels for the showers but also hot tub towels. Took 24 hours to get enough bath towels. When the hot tub was reported dirty that was fixed in a timely manner.

Very cute cabin with lots of good kitchen supplies. Only two drawbacks.

It is located on the corner of a busy street and the stairs to the 2nd floor are very narrow. They should have night lighting on the steps to the bathroom.

Lovely home in a great location

I'm glad to recommend this home. We, a family of three, stayed in this lovely home for 9 nights. The home is comfortable and well furnished. We enjoyed the hot tub and used the gas grill. The location is great. Its a short drive to the base of Heavenly Valley. Grocery stores, restaurants and the shore of Lake Tahoe are walkable. Check-in and check-out were very easy.

Black bear hideaway

Great cabin home for a family! Cozy livingroom with Very comfy leather couches and blankies! A spacious kitchen with close to new appliances including cooking utensils wich was very helful! The private Hottub in the backyard was great after the long days exploring! It was a relatively modern home mixed with all the woodworking and feeling of being in a cabin. Everything was very clean and organized wich is a great relief when starting a vacation! I highly recomend this cabin for future visitors!
