About this property

West shore is the best shore! Charming cabin in quiet Tahoma neighborhood.

  • This 3-bedroom, 2-full bath cabin on the West Shore is the perfect place to come and relax in the summer or winter! Walking distance to Chambers Landing and the Rubicon Trail, this quiet street will provide the perfect get-away for you and your family.
    Walk or ride right out of the cabin onto great hiking trails or sit and enjoy the large deck while you BBQ in the summer or the NEWLY added covered front porch and watch the snowfall under the patio heaters. Play one of the many games provided and enjoy the sounds of the great outdoors, including McKinney Creek flowing right around the corner.
    The kitchen is fully stocked and ready for those who enjoy cooking or BBQing! Don't feel like cooking, venture out and enjoy a meal at Chambers, Swiss Restaurant, West Shore Cafe, Dog and Bear Tavern (voted One of Tahoe's Best places to eat), and Shadyside Tavern - or grab burgers to-go from Cult Burger all just a short drive from the cabin. Explore a bit further and head into Tahoe City, a 15min drive where you'll finds a myriad of shops, restaurants, ice cream and activities.
    Head to West Shore Sports rentals for all your outdoor activity needs, explore the bike trail up to Tahoe City or down to Meek's bay. Or hit the slopes at Homewood just a 5-minute drive. The cabin even has a small desk for those interested in escaping their 'home office' and looking for a change of scenery.
    Tahoma market is just around the corner, where you can grab gourmet sandwiches and all sorts of goodies for a day at Meek's Bay! Head north to Tahoe City and raft down the Truckee River, visit some of the many shops and restaurants, or venture south to Emerald Bay and hike any of the vast hikes with breathtaking views! This cabin is perfectly situated right between them both.
    When the weather gets cold, you'll love the convenience of the gas stove with a flip of a switch you'll have the perfect spot to cozy up. Sit under the covered porch with your favorite book, coffee or glass of wine - where you can escape the sun in the summer or watch the snow fall in the winter!

    Sleds provided in the winter and beach/sand toys in the summer.

    Come see why the West Shore really is the Best Shore! You won't regret staying at this cabin.

Wonderful Place!

We stayed here over Christmas break and had a wonderful time. Everything in the cabin is so thoughtfully arranged and it has everything you need for a cozy family getaway. The host is lovely and we hope to come back again!

This is one of the best vacation rentals I have experienced. From the beds to the super comfortable patio furniture to the decor and the heaters on the patios, everything was wonderful! There were plenty of nice towels to go around, we used the beach chairs and toys, and the kitchen was well stocked. It is a perfect location, close to everything. Thank you so much for a wonderful stay!

We loved our stay!

This is such as nice, clean little cabin/house that fit our two small families perfectly! We enjoyed the back deck for dinner which had plenty of seating options. My only “complaint” is that the front door did not have any latch or lock from the inside so it got tricky with a toddler trying to escape. Other than the door issue, this is a wonderful place to stay!

Comfy, cozy and clean

We loved our stay at this adorable cabin in Tahoma!! The kitchen was well stocked, the common space was super cozy and just the right size for our family of five to stretch out and enjoy a movie night and most importantly (to us) the beds were all SO comfortable and clean feeling. An added bonus was that the bunk room beds were full size and built in so even our 12 year old had plenty of room to lounge and the set-up did not feel wobbly or unstable - perfect for all ages. Would highly recommend this cabin!!

We had an amazing stay at Chad’s cabin and couldn’t have asked for a better setup for two families. The layout was perfect, especially the bunk room for the kids, they absolutely loved having their own space, and it worked out so well for everyone.The location was ideal: easy access to both South Shore and Tahoe City, with tons of activities, dining, and outdoor fun nearby. Getting around was simple and convenient, which made the trip even more relaxing.Chad was an outstanding host and extremely responsive and thoughtful. The extra touches really stood out, from sleds for the kids to enjoy in the snow to a great selection of board games for cozy nights in. One of our favorite surprises was the heated blankets on the beds, such a huge plus! Every bed was incredibly comfortable, making it easy to unwind after full days of fun.Overall, this cabin exceeded our expectations. It was comfortable, well-equipped, family-friendly, and perfectly located in a beautiful neighborhood. We would absolutely stay here again and highly recommend it to anyone traveling with families or kids.

Super comfy, great location!

This house was so comfy and welcoming! We visited during the winter and it warmed up nicely using just the gas fireplace. The central heating system also worked great when we needed it. The beds were super comfortable with a perfect variety of pillows and luscious layers of blankets! A well-stocked and spacious kitchen made meal prep seamless. The bar and dining area were laid out nicely, as was the living room, making a very comfortable gathering area for our party of five. The owner was very communicative and easy to reach when we had questions. The location was great; it was an easy drive to Emerald Bay and Tahoe City. This was our first time on the west side and we loved that it was so much less crowded than other parts of the lake. I highly recommend this property! The next time we come to Tahoe, this will definitely be our first choice!

The location is very serene. We hiked the Noon Chester trail off the rubicon trail footsteps from the front porch 8 miles round trip and got a beautiful view of the lake. We walked to chambers landing beach and restaurant (about 20 min walk). Everything is well stocked. Outdoor furniture is very nice. Indoor decor was tasteful and functional. We didn’t need to contact host at all as everything was very clear. Highly recommend.

Beautiful snowy stay

We rented the cabin during winter school break, coinciding with a huge snow storm. Even if temperature was freezing, the cabin was warm and cozy and had everything we needed to cook at home and was very clean. We had a fantastic time, will be back!

Tahoe Hidden Gem

We hadn't ever stayed in the Tahoma area as we are usually closer to Sunnyside/West Shore Market and were going out of our comfort zone...and boy are we glad we did! Cabin is in what I would call a "hidden gem" neighborhood not far from Chambers. Very well appointed, don't think pictures do it justice. Even got to see a bear which was fun for all of us! Look forward to staying again.

This cabin in the woods was such a gem! We thoroughly enjoyed the home. It's definitely a home that is well loved by the owners and when not rented used by the them - it's so well stocked! Tons of dishes, cookware, towels and even condiments! Nicely remodeled. Comfortable bedrooms. Lots of privacy. We were in need of nothing! There's a spacious outdoor deck which we enjoyed every morning with our coffee. They are not kidding around about bear activity and need for diligence with the bear wires! We had one saunter right through the property one afternoon! The neighbor called him "a big racoon". We also were privileged to see a coyote, and a local squirrel patrolling his Redwood trees. The beauty of nature abounds in this quiet residential neighborhood. Great for families and multiple couples.

fantastic

This place was amazing. It felt like a brand new house! Everything was perfect. I have stayed in lots of VRBO's over the last 5 years, mostly for long term deployments as a general contractor. This particular cabin far exceeded all other VRBO's by miles. It is only a few minutes drive to Homewood ski area, one of the best kept secrets on the West Shore, if you like uncrowded groomers of powder after a fresh snowfall.

West shore relaxation

Super clean and well supplied house, perfect size for our family of two adults, our college age son and high school daughter. Kitchen had everything we needed. Beds were comfortable, kitchen table was good size for game nights, sectional couch was inviting for hanging out. Deck was wonderful for morning coffee and looks great for evenings too but we were inside mostly at night due to it being a buggier year. Quiet neighborhood with ample size yard that gave privacy from surrounding homes (not always the case in Tahoe). Bunk room has full size beds and looks brand new along with the attached bathroom- beautiful. My teen daughter very much enjoyed this space. Plan to return to this home again as it met all our needs.

Pleasurable stay in the pines

This is a well-appointed, comfortable home in McKinney Estates, a development in Tahoma not far from the Rubicon Trail. Quiet neighborhood; very safe. No problems with bears due to bear wires (easy to use) surrounding the whole house. Easy drive to great state parks and beaches on the West Side.
