Mt. Airy Cottage - Walk to Beach!

Summary:
This newly renovated 2-bedroom cottage is a family-friendly home with an open layout, a large outdoor deck, and a fenced backyard, providing ample space for your group to relax and entertain. The incredible location will have you enjoying the peaceful forest setting while still being centrally located to all that Lake Tahoe has to offer. Enjoy being a short walk to the beach during the summer months, and conveniently located near many of the ski resorts for some winter fun!

The Space:
Surrounded by trees in a tranquil setting, this charming two-bedroom, one-bathroom cottage makes efficient use of its space making for a comfortable stay for your group of up to 6. The home has an open kitchen and living area, separate bedrooms, and a great private outdoor space so you can enjoy socializing with your group while still getting a good night’s rest in the private bedrooms.

Enter the home and arrive at the bright and inviting living room and kitchen. In the living room, you will find a comfortable couch that doubles as a queen pull-out bed providing additional sleeping accommodations if needed. Your group can also enjoy a cozy movie night on the couch with a mounted 42” smart TV in the space. Connected to the living room is the fully equipped kitchen where you will find everything you need to cook a great meal with your friends and family. The kitchen features stainless steel appliances, charming exposed shelving, and a large kitchen bar with seating for 6.

When you are ready to settle in for the night you will find two comfortable bedrooms located on opposite sides of the main living area providing additional separation of space. Just down the hall from the living room, you will find the first bedroom with a queen size bed, matching nightstands with lamps, a ceiling fan, and charming wood-exposed ceilings. The second bedroom is located right after you enter the front door and is accessed via a sliding door. This room boasts a twin-over-twin bunk bed great for families to share. Guests will also have access to a pack-n’play travel crib for those traveling with younger children. The home features one full bathroom for shared use with a single sink vanity, under-the-sink cabinet space, and a shower/bathtub combo.

The Neighborhood:
This charming cottage is in an unbeatable location for enjoying all that Tahoe has to offer. Located just half a mile from Secline beach you can easily walk down to this pet-friendly beach and enjoy the volleyball courts and BBQ areas. Or head over to King’s Beach just a mile from the home and spend the day on the big sandy beaches where you will find every variety of watercraft available to rent for some water fun! This funky little beach town area has plenty of entertainment and dining options for you to enjoy with a wide variety of restaurants to dine at, cute boutiques and a farmer's market for shopping, and free concerts that happen in the summer. If there is a golfer in your group they will love the fact that the home is only a two-minute drive away from the Brockway Golf Club course. In the winter the golf course is open for XC skiing, sledding, snowshoeing, and dog walking. You are also only 15 minutes from Northstar ski resort with the added bonus that the location of the house will keep you away from the ski traffic through Kings Beach. If you are looking for XC trails you are less than a 10 min drive to the North Tahoe Regional park, or if you are feeling extra adventurous you can access their trail system from Tiger Ave just above the house. This same trail system is great for hiking and biking in the summer. With its easy access to town, ski resorts, golfing, and the lake, this cabin is a great home base for the ultimate Tahoe getaway any time of the year.

Getting Around:
The home is within a 5-minute walk to the nearest public transportation stop HWY 267 AT Speckled St which runs every hour. Or make the short drive down to King's Beach where you can use the FREE park and ride to reach locations such as Olympic Park and Northstar California Resort. With HWY 89 just minutes away, you can easily make day trips to many of the stunning surrounding areas located around Tahoe City.

Tahoe has UBER, Lyft, and many taxi companies.

Just okay

The property is in an excellent location and it has a nice yard and deck for pets and enjoying the outdoors. Everything else was okay. It was way too hot in the afternoon and evenings. The sliding glass door has no screen and with pets, cannot be left open; not to mention all the beetles that would've come inside. There were only 2 small pans to cook with. The larger one was scratched up and unsafe to use. Granted we were visiting when it was between 85-90 in Tahoe, the cabin was too hot to use the oven. Once on, the shower is nice. However turning it on is very difficult; needs new fixtures. We were only supplied 4 washcloths for a family of 4 for 6 nights. More were brought to us, 24 hours after the initial request. Other products, soap, trash bags, toilet paper, etc, was well stocked. My biggest complaint is with Vrbo. The price, cleaning fee and service fee is way overpriced for this property. Also, communication with Local VR and Vrbo with my reservation details was terrible. I changed the reservation from 7 nights to 6, before we arrived but I have still not received a price adjustment after many documented requests. I had to take the issue up with my bank to argue on my behalf because they stopped communicating with me. Overall, if you are looking for an okay accomodation in an excellent neighborhood that accepts pets, this works. But please book local, not through Vrbo who financially screws you.

Cute Cabin

Love staying in Kings Beach. We choose this house because of the size we needed for a few days. It was perfect for 4 people - 2 being kids that could use the bunk bed and also the on-site pack 'n play. The door to the 2nd room didn't close because it barn door was off the track so the door had to stay open which was okay for our needs. Loved having an enclosed yard that was great for the dog. Kitchen was stocked with dishes, but we didn't have any oven mitts to use taking things out of the oven and only one dishtowel so next time I'll bring some things. If we were staying longer I think I'd prefer a place with a dishwasher and a washing machine but otherwise it was a nice stay for us.

Fall Getaway Weekend

We came to Lake Tahoe to celebrate my wife's birthday, do some hiking and catch some fall colors. The Mt. Airy Cottage was the perfect base from which to do those things. Easy walks to the lake and restaurants and short drives to lots of trailheads. The cottage was very comfortable and equipped with everything we needed. I highly recommend it to others and hope we get a chance to come back again.

Great location

The property is in a great location. The front yard deck is very nice in the evening. The refrigerator went out the first night we were there. However, the management company quickly resolved the problem with a new refrigerator and credit for groceries no questions asked. There’s bound to be a problem when renting a property. The management’s speedy remedy with a kind attitude made all the difference. The cabin was well described and well stocked. We hope to stay there again next year!

Great little place with perfect location

This place worked well for our family with 2 young kids and a dog! Note it is quite small and no dining room table (can sit at cute bar stools). Kitchen is small but very well stocked. Other thing to note is no dishwasher! Very dog friendly! Great location as only 5 min walk to beach with amazing views on Lake Tahoe!
