About this property

The Lazy Bear's Den-guests love the backyard, family room and location!

Mid week and spring discounts are set! come up and play in the spring-no crowds, weather is great, come explore Lake Tahoe.

The Lazy Bear's Den is designed with relaxation in mind. Set up for 2 couples or a small family this spot is the perfect retreat. Come play in the snow, relax or if you have to work WIFI is provided. Spacious fenced yard is such a great place to play.
The location is wonderful: less than 4 miles to Heavenly Ski Resort, the village with shopping and dining, If Sierra At Tahoe is your skiing choice it is approximately 15 miles away. In the summer time the Lake is close, depending on which is your favorite beach.

As you enter the cabin you will immediately notice all the custom wood details, the living area with comfy leather couch and chairs is focused on the gas fireplace and flat screen TV. Adjacent to the living area is the dining room. The kitchen is set up for the family chef to prepare a feast, there are plenty of dishes, pots and pans, serving items. There is a slider to the spacious and fenced backyard-perfect for summer bbqs. There is an additional space off the living area with a couch and a TV-a great space for the kids to play. This room does have a futon if you need an extra spot to sleep.
There is a full bath (shower stall only) that is shared by both bedrooms. The master bedroom has a 1/2 bath attached. The master also has access to the backyard.
The backyard has a Gas BBq, picnic table and chairs.

Maximum Occupancy is 4, in beds the home sleeps 4, plus the futon. Children 5 and under are not counted. Occupancy Rules are in place at all times.

Cozy, clean and quiet

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We enjoyed our stay. This home was exceptionally clean and well equipped. Fun bear decor and comfortable furnishings, including cozy throws, and easy to use TV. There was a separate TV for streaming, which is a good idea for guests. There are plenty of nice appliances and dishes to accommodate cooking a big meal. We may do so on a future stay. Only used the primary bedroom, which was very comfortable. Big back yard, and a fairly quiet neighborhood. We'd stay here again.

Big and comfortable cabin, it has everything we need it to make us feel like home. So many cookware options. The kitchen was well equipped with all the necessary stuff to cook. they have containers in different sizes. I traveled with 4 little girls, the place was perfect and spacious for the kids, they loved the family room because it has a TV. The backyard is huge. Only thing missing was coffee and sugar. But we got our own and it was fine. I really enjoyed it. Great place to stay, highly recommended.

Lazy Bear Den

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was more than happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: This is a nice, spacious house. We didn't find anything missing that we expected to have. There were nice plush towels and comfortable beds. There was a small assortment of kids games/toys and lawn darts/cornhole games outside. From what we could tell, the garage was not accessible to guests--not an issue in the summer but maybe with snow in winter. Everything is a drive from the house but there is a lot to explore within short driving distances. South Lake Tahoe is definitely more of a regular town feel as compared to the more touristy north side Kings Beach where we also stayed. Only additions we would recommend are more lighting around dining table and addition of umbrella and/or beach chairs for summer guest use. There were four nice beach towels provided.

Everything was great! Just as described.

Clean, tastefully appointed, well stocked with kitchen supplies. Management was extremely responsive and also provided a snow shovel and car brush in anticipation of an upcoming snow storm. Would absolutely stay here again!

Cozy Cabin

Great stay in the Lazy Bears Den. Clean and cozy, the cabin was as advertised. Great location and close to everything. Some cooking spices, oil, coffee etc would have been a nice touch, Overall very comfortable.

Clean, comfortable, quiet and responsive

Very nice 2BR. All was as described. Michelle was great, accommodating our requests for a slight schedule change and for an early check-in, promptly providing a hair dryer when informed there had been none (we left it in the master bath vanity), and generally being on top of everything and immediately responsive. Thank you again Michelle! Our only critique was that several of the lights flicker, perhaps due to bulbs or lighting fixtures being incompatible with dimmer switches. But otherwise all was terrific. In particular, the heated floor in the master bath is a very nice touch! Thanks again.

Clean and Good value

The Good: The two bedroom house is spacious and welcoming. It has a great layout; it includes a second family room complete with toys and games for kids. The backyard is welcoming and quiet. Kitchen has a thoughtful assortment of utensils and equipment (cast iron pans are in the pantry!). The TV has HBO. The neighborhood is very quiet and scenic. The Bad: This house wasn't as secluded as it appears in the photo, which caused a problem for me as I like to have a lot of natural lighting but the windows looked out onto neighbors. The lighting provided drove me nuts, especially in the living and dining room as there are no direct overhead lights. Many of the windows are difficult to open and close. Thankfully, there were three standing fans and multiple ceiling fans provided for cooling. Bring your own coffee and/or tea- the Keurig pods tasted terrible! The Surprising: I saw a bear outside multiple times on the last night that I was here. The night before, I had left one of the back doors open for ventilation (with the screen door shut). I am really glad the bear didn't visit that night and that I had taken out my trash and anything smelly from my car when I arrived.
