You’re being watched

House was as advertised. Bathrooms were updated and nice, and the rest of the house is probably of the original finishes. The carpet on the stairs felt dirty. The private beach/dock was nearby and really fun. The weekend however turned into somewhat of a VRBO nightmare. We felt under constant threat of additional fees as the owner messaged us multiples times daily about the movement of our children in and out of the cabin, which they were monitoring with an outdoor webcam. We left the property as we found it and ultimately were not charged additional fees. I don’t recommend this property for anyone with small children or anyone that plans on spending time at the property beyond sleeping. Considering dozens of VRBO stays, this was our worst experience by far.

Family Long Weekend

Property was as described and perfect for our family. Access to the HOA beach right next to the Godfather II house was the cherry on top. Communication with the owner was excellent and efficient. Will definitely be back.

Multi bedroom wonderful "cabin" in the forest.

The cabin offers a private dock with beautiful views of Lake Tahoe. With 4 bedrooms and multiple beds to sleep up to 10 there was plenty of beds. The kitchen is well stocked with assorted equipment. The decks around the house make plenty of space to eat or relax. The 2 bathrooms offer showers and a washer dryer for convince too. I would recommend this "cabin" to any family. There are some terrific restaurants close by too. Much to see and do on your stay too.

Perfect stay!

Cozy, charming cabin with rustic charm! Great location for snow and water/beach fun, perfectly far enough away from Tahoe city (near the action but still feels secluded). Kitchen is well stocked and organized too so great for cooking! We’d stay again :)

Homewood Cabin - It doesn't get any better

What a very nice and very comfortable cabin retreat. My wife and I spent 3 wonderful nights at this cabin, in Homewood, CA. The kitchen was easy to move about and prepare meals in, the living room area was comfortable to relax in and the deck was perfect to sit out upon, even until the later evening while using the patio heater. The short 5-minute walk to the private beach/dock was the perfect stroll, next time we are bringing our kayak. You cannot go wrong with this property. The

Great stay for family

We had a great time at the property. Grill, patio heater, giant patio table 5 stars. We went to Sand Harbor and Emerald Bay so no need to swim at the HOA beach, but it was nice place to walk to at night and enjoy the lake view from the pier.

Celebrating 4th of July

Cabin was exactly in the description. My family loves how we can walk to the lake and how there were stores few minutes away. Mike was easy to contact, I contacted him as soon as we got there and kept in contact with me throughout our stay. We loved walking around the neighborhood in the morning and enjoyed the patio deck where we celebrated 4th of July with lots of food. We enjoyed our stay at “First Cabin” very much.

Great place to stay for a family gathering! Check-in and out was quick and easy with clear instructions and great communication from the property owner. Location is close to the lake and amenities at Homewood and Sunnyside, but far enough from the road to be peaceful and quiet. The deck is huge with plenty of furniture to enjoy sun or shade. The house is well appointed with plenty of linens, towels, and kitchen equipment. We will definitely consider staying here again!!

Excellent place, a short walk to Lake Tahoe and short drive to Tahoe City

My family (me, wife, 7yo son, and father-in-law) stayed here and found the place excellent. If we visit Tahoe again next winter we'll try to rent it again. The kitchen is good and the beds are comfortable. Newly renovated bathrooms are nice. The owner was extremely responsive (usually within 30m) and helpful. It's a 3 minute drive from a nearby snow play area, which had good sledding, looking out on the lake. The proximity of Tahoe city made it easy to get groceries, and rent snowgear. Overall, an excellent stay.

Our stay at 1st Cabin

We had a wonderful stay at 1st Cabin. The house was very well stocked with all needed kitchenware, towels, sheets, etc. The location is perfect, close to a number of ski resorts and about 15 minutes from downtown. Mike and Sheryl are wonderful hosts who really care about their guests. During our stay it snowed a total of 10 feet with 39 inches in one 24 hour period. Mike helped with contacting his snow plow service. Then I80 and 50 were closed for a couple of days when we were supposed to check out with the next guests due in. Mike and Sheryl worked everything out between us and the incoming guests. We highly recommend this rental, great owners!

About the host

Hosted by Mike Paul

Host profile image
We grew up in Fremont, CA but have been living in the Lodi area for 40+ years. We went to school at Washington Union High School and San Jose Community College.

Why they chose this property

We grew up vacationing at Meeks Bay Resort at Lake Tahoe. When we decided to buy our own cabin, we bought a lot in Tahoe Swiss Village and spent our summer weekends with a couple of carpenter friends building this home.

What makes this property unique

We chose this area to build a cabin because it had its own private Association beach and pier. We enjoy boating and this place lets us do that easily. There are buoys that are available to rent from the Association.
