The perfect spot for a long weekend with my family. My wife and I along with 3 boys ages 10, 8 and 5. The location is perfect and the cottage is just steps from the water. They had all the water and yard toys ready to go and in great condition. The house was super clean and could not be a cuter more quintessential Tahoe cottage. Had a blast and can’t wait to come back again.

My family stayed here for 4 nights for Thanksgiving holiday. The home is directly on the lake and has its own private pier! The back porch, we spent most of our time, enjoying the tranquility and beauty of Lake Tahoe! Our grandchildren loved having a real fireplace! The home is beautiful, warm and cozy! Owners were super nice! Can't wait to go back!!!!!

My family and I ( and our dog) stayed here October 17-19, 2023. The home was exactly as presented and had everything we could possibly need for our visit. The fully stocked kitchen made cooking a breeze! This large house was beautifully decorated had plenty of room to gather for group activities and meals and for time alone to nap, read or whatever. The beds are the coziest ! All this said, the front porch and dock/deck on the water is where we spent most of our time. Our dog Raya loved playing fetch both in the enclosed yard and in the water. The weather was spectacular and we enjoyed every moment on the lake. We met our hosts who were friendly yet fully respectful of our privacy. This is an amazing place and we thank you, Sheila- we hope to be back next year!

I feel so fortunate to have found this enchanted cottage on the lake! I was celebrating a birthday & friends, family & our beloved furry baby Rufus were all there with me! I hope to come back in the summer for the warmer weather.
The wonderful memories will always make me smile!

We loved it. Great part of the lake, not too crowded, but still lots of great restaurants nearby and a quick drive to Sandy Harbor. The house has everything you could want, from a full kitchen, to water toys, to gas grill, fireplace, board games, TV, it just goes on. Super great communication from the owners who are nearby. Great weekend, we'll be back!

This is an adorable log cabin filled with antiques but with all the modern amenities. Great kitchen and comfy beds. Lake views from every room. We spent a lot of time enjoying the expansive front porch and dock. We felt it was the perfect location for our little getaway. The hosts are extremely responsive and very nice. Can't wait to stay again!!

This was a beautiful lake front home in a great location. Owner was very communicative and easy to work with. It has great antiques and decor throughout the home. The Safeway was conveniently located less than a mile away. We loved the local restaurants for pizza and beer. The kids enjoyed watching ducks from the dock and trying to catch crayfish. All the of beds were super comfy, the kitchen was well stocked, and the internet/TV worked great. Would absolutely recommend this home!

Beautiful location right on the lake and the house was very comfortable. We wish that we could have stayed there forever.

My family and I experienced an extraordinary stay in this home which is unparalleled to other vacay rental experiences. Something about this experience felt more like staying at a family friend’s summer lakehouse versus a turnkey vacay rental set up. The home is historic and there are elements like the two fireplaces, a smaller gas stove one by the dining table and the large, stone wood burning one gracing the family room. There are some original pieces of furniture and rustic, natural wood surrounds you with a cozy and warm ambiance. I cook everyday and found everything I needed in the kitchen- even an instant pot for a quick batch of smoked black beans! The bedrooms were beautifully appointed and comfortable. I found myself doing double takes because the stunningly beautiful backdrop- the pier, lake , lawn and trees, were framed so well with the large windows. At the same time, modern comforts like various sound system options, auto regulated thermostat, wifi, heat lamp outside—- the feeling was that the owners were sharing a very special and beloved place with their guests. I couldn’t say enough about this home - from cooking to kayaking, seeing my fur baby frolic and enjoy with us— all my stress and worries were non existent here. Highly recommend- needless to say, I would return again.

The pictures almost capture the pure calm of this home on the lake. We knew we didn't want to plan a lot of activities. The intent of our trip was to just unwind and relax. There is much to do in this beautiful area but we found staying put to be very enjoyable. The back porch alone is worth the price! Sheila and Eric were very kind and helpful. The house itself is wonderful. Everything we needed was there. The history of the area and the home are very interesting. Take some time to read the coffee table book. We are already looking forward to our next visit. Thank you!

Everything was perfect. Tahoe is a very special place to our family. We've been visiting the lake for three generations so we greatly appreciated the homeowner's dedication to preserving the property's original character and sharing this important part of the lake's history. The house was so perfect we never needed to leave. All meals were cooked and enjoyed lakeside. We rented a boat within walking distance and enjoyed a day on the lake. We relaxed on the dock. Thank you Sheila!

This beautiful cabin is charming, comfortable, and very well equipped. Lakefront views are stunning. Location is very convenient to restaurants and grocery stores, yet secluded and private. Shelia and Eric were wonderful hosts who made sure that we had everything we needed for an amazing stay. We can't wait to return to this truly special place!

Have rented this property two years running and look forward to returning again! Beautiful setting on the lake, friendly hosts, and an ideal location for feeling completely removed from it all -- but can also get to the Safeway in less than 5 min. ;) What's not to love?!

We booked this property for a 50th wedding anniversary celebration six months in advance and the whole family was looking forward to it with great anticipation. Not only did it not disappoint, it exceeded our expectations! Check in and check out were easy, the hosts were friendly, the view and lake access were incomparable, the beds were comfortable, the kitchen was well appointed, and everywhere you look you see attention to detail and the love of its owners shining through. A joy and a delight! Would return in a heartbeat.

Beautiful property with wonderful lake access. Incredibly well-stocked kitchen made it easy to cook fantastic meals that we enjoyed on the deck overlooking the lake. Kind hosts responded immediately when the barbecue needed additional propane.
Plentiful towels and great to be able to use kayaks and paddle boards.
We loved our trip overall. The only drawback for us was being right next door to a boatyard/marina. We heard heavy equipment lifting boats off racks as early as 6am most days. Then, the equipment and boat traffic was present all day when reading on the dock.

Stayed here for a week with my mom and my 3 adult kids. This was such a beautiful, quaint, charming home with the most spectacular views. It was our first time in Lake Tahoe and staying here has made us all love Tahoe. The house has been lovingly restored and updated while keeping the charm of an old world lake cottage. Sheila’s decorations are warm and inviting. The large porch with a heater was the perfect spot for sharing meals, cocktails or just enjoying the spectacular views.
The beds are very comfortable and Sheila and Eric are wonderful host.
We would love to come back and stay here again.

We had a very peaceful and relaxing stay in this very classic lakefront cabin, with all upgraded amenities and plenty of outdoor spaces to enjoy the view. Lots of great restaurants close by, too, as well as many outdoor activities within the vicinity. We thoroughly enjoyed our time here.

Don't even give it a second thought, you won't be sorry! Such a cozy and amazing spot right on the lake. We could have moved right in..... Thank you to Shiela and her husband.

We loved staying at this lakefront house with our family. It really felt like an idyllic home on the lake...not just another rental. So many details to make our stay comfortable. And you can't beat having your own lakefront views, access, and dock. It has it all!

This was our second trip. And now it’s the fall. We very much enjoyed our stay and discovered a large walking area close by the home. A very relaxing atmosphere for us which we desperately need! The hosts are very helpful and communication is terrific. A+

A wonderful old Tahoe cabin renovated to include all the modern conveniences.
We had a wonderful stay. The ping pong table was a great bonus.

We had an amazing time staying at this charming shingled “Old Tahoe” house. The location as great, right next to the Marina, close to Safeway. We went canoeing and swimming off the pier. We had a cocktail cruise on the Wild Goose who moors nextdoor. It was super clean, comfortable and charmimg. It was so perfect we never left to go to a restaurant! I would give it 6 ⭐️ stars

Really enjoyed our stay at the darling cabin built so long ago. The owners on site couldn’t have been more accommodating. Outstanding views!

This is a very special home that is meticulously maintained. The view is nothing short of breathtaking. We stayed on the property for the majority of our trip as we had our own private lake access. We took the kids and our dog kayaking (kayaks provided by owners) and set traps for fish and crawfish right from the dock. My kids didn’t want to leave.

This cottage has all the charm of yesteryear and all of the modern amenities. The pictures on VRBO accurately depict the cottage and the views. Sitting on the end of the dock was a bucket list dream come true. I would highly recommend this cottage.

I have stayed in many homes through VRBO and this was one of the best if not the best --- location was great, the house had old school charm with all of the modern amenities. Owners were really communicative and helpful. Couldn't really ask for more. It is a really nice home and although it is pet friendly, I would say that this isn't the place for a dog free for all. There are really beautiful hardwood floors, beautiful carpeting and antique furniture.

My boyfriend and I stayed here during the off season. It was absolutely wonderful. The landlords are great and answer your questions quickly and efficiently! The home itself was beautiful. Very well kept with all the amenities you could ask for. The history of the home is amazing in itself then you get to eat, sleep and relax all while looking right out to the water and beauty of the mountains. We biked, hiked, boated, climbed trees, and even had a big friendly black bear wonder through the backyard while sitting on the porch one night !! We will def consider this home for our next trip out * thank you Sheila and Eric for this wonderful opportunity!!
