You can purchase a policy through us and it costs an additional $55 total. The alternative option is that you can opt in for a refundable security deposit of $3,000. If you opt in for the security deposit, we will hold that on your card on file two weeks prior to check-in and then will return it as quickly as we can. Thank you for understanding.

Great location

This cabin was perfect for the 8 of us. Two families. The kids annoyed the big room upstairs and there was enough space we didn’t feel on top of each other. Walking to the shops in Tahoe city was super easy .5 mile walk and the back road was perfect for avoiding 4th of July traffic in the city.
