Private Hot Tub in the Pines in North Lake Tahoe

OUR CABIN IS IN A VERY QUIET NEIGHBORHOOD. We love our guests and want you to enjoy your stay but loud noise and partying is not appropriate for this cabin.

This charming, clean and nicely decorated cabin (we call 'the baby') is adorable. It is a great family oriented cabin in the very wooded but friendly area of Agate Bay or Carnelian Bay. This area is "North Lake Tahoe". Right in between Kings Beach and Tahoe City, but closer to Kings Beach. It's a great centralized location, close to the lake, away from the crowds but very close to the action in Kings Beach and Tahoe City as well. The closest ski resort is North Star (about 15 minutes drive), however Palisades Tahoe (formerly Squaw Valley & Alpine Meadows) is not much further away (about 20 minutes drive) away. Other nearby ski resorts include Diamond Peak(about 20 minute drive), Mt. Rose (about 30 minute drive). The ski resorts around Donner Pass (Boreal, Sugar Bowl & Tahoe Donner, Donner Ski Ranch, Soda Springs) are 30-45 minutes depending on traffic. Then the south shore resorts (Heavenly & Kirkwood are an hour or more away). If you don't already know, Tahoe has a lot of ski resorts to choose from and Carnelian Bay is the perfect spot to explore as many as you'd like!

It has a freshly redesigned & renovated, fully equipped kitchen, newly renovated bathrooms & bedrooms, & a completely redecorated loft sleeping area with new linens and a cozy sitting\play area for the kids (and those young at heart). The icing on the cake is the large deck with your own hot tub, great for warming up in the winter and lounging in the summer.

We are very close to one of the Tahoe Rim trail entrances. A beautiful view once you reach the top. An hour hike for all ages. It is also fun to walk to breakfast to the old Carnelian Bay Post Office converted to a wonderful old world cafe.

In the winter months the woods are covered with snow and the cabin is warm and cozy. Ski lifts near by are North Star, great for family.

Diamond Peak which is a bit smaller (and sort of a secret to the tourists) is close, and is a lot of fun with three very long runs. Mt. Rose is to the east a bit further.

It is also close to Alpine Meadows and Squaw Valley but the above are a bit less of a drive. The cabin is on a slope so tobogganing is right outside the door.

Then back to the cabin for a hot, relaxing Jacuzzi on the deck.

You will love your stay in 'The Baby' as it has brought many wonderful memories to our family and friends and many return renters.

The cabin is heated and features a kitchen, 2 bathrooms, and a balcony, and there's space to spread out with 3 bedrooms. Guests can enjoy a Smart TV and stay connected with free WiFi. Other standard amenities include a washing machine, a fireplace, and a sofa bed.

Perfect Cabin in a Perfect Location

The home was ideal for us and our two Golden Retrievers. The layout is great with two spacious bedrooms downstairs, so we only went upstairs to open the windows and turn on the ceiling fan for wonderful air flow on the warmer days. The kitchen and its big dining table are fantastic for food prep. Although we didn't "cook" as dining out is a big part of our vacations, we did put together light breakfasts and charcuterie-style snack meals to enjoy on the beautiful deck. The kitchen is well-appointed with everything needed for full meals if desired. Our favorite spots in Lake Tahoe are King's Beach and the beach at Carnelian Bay (unofficial dog beach where everyone has a great time... two-leggers and four-leggers) and both are short, easy drives from the cabin. We visit Lake Tahoe every few years and definitely look forward to staying here again.
