Comfortable lake home in a quiet neighborhood

The house is in a great location both for its view of the lake and ease of grocery store and eating out. The neighborhood is super quiet past 9 or 10 which worked for us as we are early risers. The rooms met our needs, although an on suite bathroom for the master bedroom would have been nice, as both bathrooms are on the other side of the house. Not a huge deal though. Lake Tahoe itself is just amazingly beautiful. The private beach was nice although we were not completely confident where we were allowed to set up our chairs, but we made it work. Communication with the owner was fantastic and he was very friendly and helpful.

Great Location & Private Beach

We had an amazing stay at this Zephyr Cove cottage to celebrate my daughter's 30th birthday. The location was great, with easy access to shopping and South Lake Tahoe entertainment. Andrew was so easy to work with and incredibly helpful with great suggestions for hikes, restaurants, and entertainment! The private beach was perfect and less than a minute walk from the cottage. The cottage was spacious, well equipped, and homey without seeming pretentious. I'd definitely book this cottage again!

Perfect Location!!

This property is a short walk to a great private beach. With 5 kids under the age of 7, we needed that level of convenience. The kids rode scooters around the cute neighborhood and we grilled everynight on the back deck with amazing views.

Fun, rustic home by the lake

This cute rustic house was perfect for our 3-generation family gathering, with 5 bedrooms, a huge dining/gathering room that looks just right with its big, stone fireplace, and all the modern conveniences we wanted (dishwasher, washer/dryer). and lots of beach equipment (towels, chairs, umbrella) for the private, neighborhood beach just steps away. The equally spacious living room provided lots of playspace for the kids, but our favorite gathering space for meals, playing and just relaxing was the large, comfortable deck facing he lake. The owner made checking in and out a breeze, and he instantly responded to any questions or requests - helpful, kind and considerate.

Most peaceful Cabin & Location

This trip was a GREAT experience from start to finish. Andrew was available to all of our questions and very helpful with local spots. Cabin is way bigger than expected, we had a group of 11 and house never felt crowded. Very close access to the lake it was breathtaking view to wake up to. Couple minute drive to Casino’s, snow, and restaurants. I will definitely be returning back to Andrew’s home.

Absolutely adorable and such a cozy place.

My friends, family and I LOVED staying here and would do it again. Andrew is amazing and so so helpful, reassuring you to call him with any questions and making you feel super comfortable. His cabin is in such an awesome neighborhood and the location was perfect. I’m so glad I chose this place and hope to make it a yearly thing!
