Cozy place but needs attention
We enjoyed the location and cozy feel of the cabin. However, listing an electric “fireplace” that puts out no heat as a fireplace is quite a stretch. Kitchen was dirty, poorly organized and needs a thorough cleaning. Coffee maker had mildew in the tank and an old pod on arrival. Sink had food debris and the water only worked part of the time. Wifi did not work on the 5g we were told to use- we’re able up connect to main house in one area of the cabin. Overall a nice stay but this rental needs some love and attention to deserve the 5 star review the owner asks for. You could tell the place had not been thoroughly cleaned in a while- makes you wonder why we are paying a cleaning fee.

Great stay for ski weekend
Space was clean and heat worked well in the cabin. The place was easy to find and check in was perfect. We were not fully aware that the garage under the cabin would be in-use by the owners, but it was no problem at all. I would stay here again!

Great location
Located on the best part of Lake Tahoe (in my opinion) so close to so many activities. The cabin was great and the host was awesome. We arrived late at night and she still made sure we got checked in ok. Was very accommodating. Would definitely stay again

Comfortable charming cabin
The cabin is a very charming and comfortable space. The kitchen is well-stocked, and the cabin is comfortably furnished throughout. Could use a little TLC overall given age of property and usage, to really standout at 5 stars, but still is likely some cuts above most other rentals in the area. We enjoyed our stay very much.

Great location and access to homeowner beach
My husband and I stayed for five nights over July 4th and really enjoyed our stay. The location of the cabin was great, and there is a comfy pull out bed (not shown) if you prefer separate beds. We had our dog who is a “leash” dog and be prepared, the neighborhood has quite a few off leash dogs. Everyone was very respectful of our dog on leash, however. The location to the private beach was awesome and we enjoyed the bike trail into town. Hope to stay at the cabin again!

Tahoe at its best
This charming property is in the wonderful Tahoe Park neighborhood, amid tall pines and cedars and only a 5 minute walk to several excellent restaurants, a sports rental shop, a general store and a private beach at the lake. Tahoe City is 2 miles away. Carolyn has done a nice job of decorating the place in old tahoe style, and it was a very comfortable and quiet stay. Will definitely keep this place on our A list for future trips to the west shore.

Cute cabin in nice location
The cabin looked like the ad but with quite a bit of snow. Perfect location for skiing at Palisades and Alpine. Kitchen was not as well equipped with limited supplies. We asked about grill and were told it was not available but then were invited to use the neighbors. Bed was extremely comfortable. We were very appreciative of the addition glasses left.

Adorable and cozy cabin!
Loved our stay with Carolyn! Our little apartment above the garage was exactly the right fit for our family - our son loved the rollaway bed and it was so nice to be able to bring our pup along. When the stairs are icy, you have to watch your step going up to the entrance. Overall, a magical snowy getaway in the woods!

About the host

Hosted by Carolyn Blakeman

Host profile image
We moved to Tahoe City full time in June of 2013. The West Shore location is ideal! This North Tahoe community is comprised of warm, friendly people who enjoy and value an active and healthy life style.

Why they chose this property

Lake Tahoe is a spectacular destination for any time of the year. We are conveniently located near many restaurants, shops, ski resorts and more. This detached cabin provides a quiet and private retreat while still convenient to all the amenities Lake Tahoe has to offer.

What makes this property unique

This rental is near Homewood Resort, Alpine and world class Pacific Palisades ski resort. This location also includes access to the outstanding beach-front homeowners park. The private Lake Tahoe Park Homeowner Association includes over 800 feet of beach area on the beautiful west shore of Lake Tahoe. Two deep water piers offer a convenient loading area for boaters and a relaxing locale for sun bathers. More than three acres of land are beautifully landscaped and meticulously maintained throughout the Summer. Relax in the shade on the expansive lawn area. The kids will love the volleyball court, horseshoe pits, basketball hoop and play area complete with swing sets. Set amongst the grounds are numerous lake front picnic tables and barbecues offering unparalleled views of the lake.
