About this property

Relaxing Riverfront Retreat in Strawberry

Located on the South Fork of the American River, in the quaint town of Strawberry, this 3bedroom, 2bathroom pup friendly cabin is perfect for some quality time with loved ones or friends! You can enjoy water & mountain views from every room when you’re not outside exploring. The large wraparound deck is our favorite spot to start & end everyday whether it’s by the fire pit or enjoying the hot tub. Spend your days on the slopes in the winter, and on the river in the summer. It’s the perfect place no matter the season!


Main house, paved driveway and areas around the outside of the main house (Please stay off neighbors properties)
Text message mostly, voicemail and email will be checked as often as possible.
Quiet neighborhood setting with some local residents and some vacation homes. You will find locals and weekenders walking their dogs, hiking nearby and floating down the river during the summer, snowmobiling and cross-country skiing during the winter. Please visit the Strawberry General store for food, drinks, ski rentals and sometimes a funny story!
Lots of walking trails on and near the river. You can walk to the general store (careful crossing HWY 50) and the Strawberry Lodge (currently closed for renovations). Sierra at Tahoe ski resort is 8 miles up HWY 50 and it is just 15 miles into South Lake Tahoe to go shopping or out to eat.
There is a detached apartment the owners may use intermittently through winter.

Great base for skiing at Sierra-at-Tahoe

My son and I stayed 4-nights during the high school state ski championships. Three of the days we had to drive to Sierra-at-Tahoe, there were chain controls. I can't tell you how easy it was to commute from Strawberry instead of South Lake Tahoe, where most families stayed. The cabin was very cozy. Loved the decor - exactly what I would have done in a mountain cabin! The beds were comfortable, and the view was sublime. The kitchen had everything we needed.

Relaxing family vacation

My husband, two adult sons and I had a memorable reunion at Megan’s cabin by the river. World class hiking within minutes, fishing and relaxing in the gorgeous peaceful setting next to the river was exactly what we hoped for. The fully appointed kitchen and smoker grill allowed for meals at home so we were able to maximize our time together. Thank you so much for hosting us at your wonderful alpine home!😀

Great stay in the mountains!

We had a great stay in Strawberry. The house is well appointed and comfortably fit our family of 6. The hot tub was an added bonus. Megan was really responsive. Highly recommend this property and we hope to stay there again.

Making ski memories w/the clan!

Quick weekend trip to ski with our grandsons (8yr&6yrs). Overall home worked well for the five of us - could accommodate even more guests. Megan our host was outstanding in communicating throughout - Sierra at Tahoe is a perfect family ski mtn with a lot kids from beginner to young racers. Thanks for the memories!

Comfortable Home & Idyllic Location

The layout of the house with a large sectional and open design along with its wrap around deck and proximity to the river make this a standout property. The hosts are gracious and the neighborhood is exceptionally quiet. The kitchen was well appointed and appliances were in good working order. We enjoyed using the Traeger grill on the deck outside. Everything was very clean, too. What's amazing to us is this little pocket of a community escaped damage in the recent fires that raged through the Sierras. From the looks of things, the fire came frighteningly close. We look forward to coming back and listening to the river from the comfort of the couch.

Snowy Cabin in the woods

Had a great time staying at the cabin. Plenty of space to spread out. Kids had their own area upstairs and the fireplace and hot tub were awesome. Only a few minutes drive to Sierra at Tahoe. Plenty of snow for sledding and building forts with the kids.

Great family cabin

We had the best time at this gorgeous family cabin. The property has a rustic vibe with modern amenities. The river was a game changer while hanging out in the hot tub or on the porch. The nearby store is very cool. We definitely want to return soon.

Beautiful property with amazing location!!

The manager, Megan, was super responsive and helped us with a few hurdles we ran into (not related to issues with the property). She was wonderful and super communicative! Would definitely recommend this property, especially families. We kept talking how we would love to be able to buy a cabin in Tahoe JUST like this one. Super spacious and super cozy.
