Cute cabin in a great location

Stayed at the cabin for a few nights while snowing boarding at Sierra At Tahoe. Close location to the mountain, lots of good food options in town too. The cabin was a great space for my family.

A Wonderful Stay at Beaver Brae

My husband, daughter, and I had a wonderful winter stay at the cottage. Everything was exactly as described and was very clean. We enjoyed the fireplace, hot tub, and walks in the neighborhood including a creek area to explore. The location was great to access all the activities the South Lake Tahoe area has to offer. We highly recommend this cottage and hope to return again!

Lovely Home for Ski Trip

We had a great trip at this charming home near South Lake Tahoe. The home was very comfortable and cozy. The kitchen has plenty of pots, pans and tools to make your own meals, the hot tub was wonderful and the drives to Heavenly and Sierra-at-Tahoe were very easy. Thanks for a great stay!

Perfect spot

This was our second year staying here for spring break. We love the location, home is clean and cozy, and the hot tub is perfect after a day on the slopes. Debbie is a great host and was following the weather and communicating with us how to deal with the snow. We look forward to coming back next year.

Nice quiet neighborhood minutes away from all the action

We loved the property, it was close to town but far enough to get away from all the business of town. Beautiful back yard with hot tub and picnic table. The inside was extremely clean and there was ample kitchen supplies. The treat basket was a nice surprise as we would grab something to take with us when touring the area. Also want to say that the beds were extremely comfortable.

Great location for hiking in the South Lake Tahoe area

This property was a very good fit for two guys day hiking for a week in the area. The house is located in a quiet neighborhood and was clean and comfortable. The well equipped kitchen allowed us to conveniently prepare meals and avoid expensive eating out. The beds were very comfortable, and the hot tub was a welcome treat after our days on the trails. Overall we were very pleased with the house and we would definitely consider staying there again.

Comfortable, quiet cottage close to excellent hiking

Spent 2 weeks in August at the property. Place was stocked with everything we needed and the extras provided by the owner (welcome basket and coffee) were a wonderful added touch. Communication was good, check in was simple. Bedding, towels, and amenities were comfortable and clean. We didn't use the hot tub but took the bikes for a ride around the neighborhood.
