Inside, you're greeted by crisp, white linens on a custom-made bed, warmed by the sleek built-in fireplace and eager to cook in the fully stocked kitchen.

Just off the living area, the updated bathroom features a contemporary vanity, a stunning tiled, walk-in shower plus heated floors. This studio cabin with a covered front porch feels spacious and makes a great home base - for activities inside and out. Without starting an engine, you can enjoy all the activities of the Lake from a private or public, grab a slice of pizza and brew, feast on a mouth watering steak and cooling down while enjoying a frozen treat at a Tahoe landmark.

Thankful for having the end unit where looking out at the trees, animal life and birds made our stay very enjoyable.
Newly remodeled, quiet area, 5 min walk to the lake, great location to ski resorts and dining, quick responses if you have questions, and easy check-in and check-out. I highly recommend!
