About this property

Walk To Lake Tahoe And Private Beach/Pier, Remodeled Kitchen!

Nestled on a peaceful, secluded street in Tahoe Pines, Big Water Pines is a charming cabin retreat just 5 miles south of Tahoe City. This 2-bedroom, 1-bath getaway with an entertainment loft offers a cozy escape with a beautifully remodeled kitchen, a warm living area with a wood stove, and a hot tub for relaxation. The cabin provides parking for two cars, and high-speed internet allows you to stay connected.

On the main level, you'll find the dining area, a fully equipped kitchen with modern appliances, the living room with a wood stove, a full bathroom, and a queen bedroom. Upstairs, a spacious entertainment loft equipped with a TV (streaming only) and a sleeper sofa. Also located upstairs is the second bedroom with a king bed that creates plenty of space for friends and family. High-speed Wi-Fi, a stereo system, and a hot tub in the landscaped backyard add to the experience, making Big Water Pines the perfect vacation spot for creating lasting memories year-round.

In summer, relax outdoors with a hammock suspended between trees, a landscaped yard with patio furniture, and a gas BBQ (summer only). Located just blocks from the lake, enjoy the Tahoe Pines HOA private pier and beach, perfect for swimming, kayaking, or sunbathing. Hiking and biking trails in nearby Blackwood Canyon are ideal for exploring Tahoe's scenic nature.

In winter, Big Water Pines becomes a cozy alpine escape with easy access to top ski resorts. Palisades Tahoe and Alpine Ski Resorts are less than 10 miles away, perfect for skiing, snowboarding, or snowshoeing. After a day on the slopes, return to the warmth of the wood stove, or unwind in the hot tub under the crisp, starlit sky.

White Christmas

This property was perfect for our goal of having a cozy white Christmas! My adult daughters, fur baby and myself enjoyed this quaint cabin and its location. The cabin provided everything that we needed for our holiday, including a hot tub to relax in at the end of the day. Only drawback, we were hoping to ski at Homewood and didn’t realize until after we booked it was not open for the season. But we adjusted and skid another location on Christmas Day.

Thanksgiving stay

The cabin was very cute and cozy, perfect size for a couple and dog. The kitchen was well-stocked, and the place was very clean. Loved the wood-burning stove. The location in tahoe was great, close to hiking and walking paths. The property management was very communicative and on top of things. The bed upstairs was a little too soft and my back hurt after sleeping on it a few nights. That's my only complaint. Overall, a wonderful stay and would definitely go back!

Great stay!

This cabin location and size was perfect for our family stay. The short walk to the lake was convenient and it was a short drive from stores and restaurants, although with the well stocked kitchen we cooked every night at home. We will definitely be back!

This is a traditional cabin-style property with all the amenities of home. We lacked for nothing during our stay. We enjoy the west shore, away from the busier parts of Tahoe, and the home allowed us to have an enjoyable family vacation.

Stay at Big Blue Water

The house was very comfortable for our group of 6. We did make use of the pull-out sofa bed. Could use updating. Kitchen was well outfitted. Enjoyed the hot tub and back outdoor space. Location was close to the beach and our other family group staying nearby. We'd like to come again.

Birthday Weekend at the Lake!

This place was perfect for a group of 5 of us friends. We loved the walk to the lake every day multiple times a day, and enjoyed jumping off the dock, and having a little picnic down there. It felt tucked away but so close. They had everything we needed to cook 3 meals a day and enjoyed the hot tub every night after a cold swim at the lake.
