About this property
Gorgeous Knotty Pine Home on Westshore. Walk to Beach/Pier Access
Our family-owned cabin is on “The Gold Coast” of Lake Tahoe. Perfect for families, we are 3 blocks to Tahoe Pines public beach and rental includes pier access. We are also walking distance to hiking trails in Blackwood Canyon (including the Gnome Village), Desolation Wilderness, and Eagle Rock which provides a birds-eye view of the lake. Access to mountain biking, cross country skiing, and snowshoeing - all without getting in a car. Homewood Ski Area is 1.5 miles away, Tahoe City is 5 miles, and both Alpine Meadows and Palisades Ski Resorts are a 15-minute drive.
But there is no need to leave Tahoe Pines! We are located in a family-friendly and low-key neighborhood. The cabin sits on a large lot with front and rear decks, a horseshoe pit, darts, tree swing and BBQ (all available May-November due to snow). There is a brick fireplace with plenty of wood provided and forced air heat to keep you warm in the winter. Beautiful trees on the property will keep you cool in the summer. The 5G Wifi is suitable for remote work/school with multiple users. Two flat screen TVs (with Netflix, and Apple TV), BluRay DVD can entertain you, and ceiling speakers play your favorite music. The kitchen is fully stocked with home chefs in mind. Large dining room table with bench seating for family games and sharing meals. Plenty of pots, pans, dishes and serving platters/bowls for family meals. We have a microwave, coffee maker, espresso machine, SodaStream bubbly water maker, ice maker and dishwasher to make meal prep and clean-up a breeze. Bring your favorite food and snacks and you are set to go!
Children and adults love our neighborhood with its off-the-beaten-path vibe, flat roads for kid biking, and easy access to nature activities. In the summer you can’t beat the outdoor dining under the pines after rounds of darts and horseshoes. In the winter, stoke up a fire after a day of snow play.
The cabin has 3 bedrooms: Upstairs you'll find 1 Master Bedroom with King and Private Bathroom; a "Bonus" TV room with futon couch; 1 Queen with shared bathroom with tub. Downstairs you'll find 1 Bunk Room with Two Twins, Private Bath and "Bonus" Sitting Room. There is indoor space for everyone!
House layout:
Downstairs - Living room, dining room, kitchen with large dining room table, bench seating, pantry, Bathroom 1, bonus sitting room, and Bunk Room with two twin bunks.
Upstairs - Primary California king master bedroom with 2nd bathroom and desk workspace; Queen bedroom; plus “bonus rooms” with a flatscreen TV and queen futon couch, 3rd bathroom.
All bathrooms have heated floors.
Note: There is ample parking during summer. Winter plowing provides room for two cars with enough depth for a 3rd to park them in.

About the host
Hosted by Tripp Sandford
Why they chose this property
This house has a lot of charm and has been in our family for 3 generations. Grew up spending summers here as a kid and still for many families this area has so much to offer children during the summers when it's warm and Winters if you like to play in the snow. Location is by far my favorite in Lake Tahoe.
What makes this property unique
Large Private Lot with lots of sun and still plenty of places on decks to find shade. 3 blocks from Homeowners Beach and Pier. Peaceful and yet centrally located with tons of activities too. Great neighbors all around us with nothing but Flat Streets everywhere for kids to walk and ride bikes. Close to hikes up Blackwood Creek and near Eagle Rock. Plus easy bike to Obexer's and Shadyside stores.
