Sunshine Cabin

Summary:

2BD/1.5BA, Dog Friendly, Private Hot Tub



The Space:

This dog-friendly Agate Bay chalet is located on the North Shore of Lake Tahoe, CA. The kitchen is fully equipped with everything you could need. Comfortable furnishings and a gas fireplace in the living area allow the guest to relax amongst the massive south-facing wall of windows. The main floor includes the living room, dining area, kitchen, laundry as well as master bedroom and a full bathroom. The loft area has two twin beds along with trundle beds under each bed, perfect for a few extra friends or a place to put the youngsters! To top it off, this vacation rental comes with a well maintained and very private hot tub!



Agate Bay is a short drive to Tahoe City and Kings Beach, both great lakeside towns with wonderful restaurants, shops, grocery stores, kayak/paddleboard rentals and much more. The subdivision is a quiet, friendly neighborhood great for walking, hiking and biking. Behind the neighborhood there are trails that lead to the Tahoe Rim Trail and beyond! One can hike or mountain bike uphill through the forest to Brockway Summit for panoramic lake views. The Mansford Cabin is also located just one block away from North Lake Blvd. A very short drive gets you right onto our main road and off to your next adventure!

Great cabin, very cozy. Good location with lots to do nearby. Trails walking distance in the neighborhood to go for a hike in the forest. We loved the hot tub, and wood burning fireplace. Kitchen was well stocked and equipped for cooking, the beds and towels were all comfortable and clean.

Snow Weekend

It is the perfect spot for a fun weekend in the snow! It is warm and snug, and there is a hot tub to enjoy after a tough day of snowshoeing.

Neat layout, a little quirky, but neat nonetheless. The hot tub was nice and private. I liked that it was tucked back a little, but still easy access to the main road. Close to stuff on north and west sides of the lake.
