About this property
Black Bear Haus by Hauserman Rentals
// This home is a short term rental only \\
**PETS PROHIBITED**
Black Bear Haus is a sunny, beautifully remodeled West Shore cabin—an ideal hideaway for a couple’s Tahoe getaway. The open-concept living space is warm and inviting with leather furnishings, a 55" TV, and a Blu-ray/DVD player, plus a cozy gas fireplace for chilly evenings.
Step outside to enjoy the fresh mountain air from the sunny patio (table seating for four) or unwind on the front-deck chaise lounge. There’s also a seasonally-available propane BBQ for easy outdoor meals. After a day of exploring, relax in the private hot tub on the back deck.
The bathroom has been fully updated with a new tub and granite tile. Wireless internet is included, and a high-efficiency washer/dryer is available inside (located down the interior stairs).
There are approximately 13 stairs from the parking area down to the cabin, so it is not wheelchair accessible. The homeowner (or a guest of the owner) may occasionally use the separate apartment below the garage; it has its own entrance and is set away from the main house, with no expected interruption to your stay.
The garage is not available for renter use. Parking is limited to 2 spaces.

We loved our stay at the Black Bear Haus as a newly engaged couple! Cute, cozy, and the hot tub was a definite plus after hiking around Lake Tahoe. Would definitely stay again!
My husband and I stayed here in January and loved it. The house was the perfect winter escape for us. We were even able to easily walk down the hill to the various restaurants and market on the main road. We would stay here again for sure.
My husband and I stayed here to celebrate our 15 year anniversary and it was absolutely perfect. Home was amazing. Scenery was stunning and neighborhood was so peaceful. I recommend this property to any couple looking to just get away or celebrate something.

Lovely house! A little awkward to get to down the stairs but fine - hot tub is amazing, kitchen is amazing and well stocked.The bed is very uncomfortable though - very very very firm. Would stay here every trip if a different bed.
The place was beautiful, great central location for us to explore Lake Tahoe. It was the perfect place for a long weekend get away! I would highly recommend!

We spent 4 days in Black Bear Haus and enjoyed every minute. Perfect home base to explore Lake Tahoe. Numerous hiking trails within walking distance, nice restaurant options nearby. Soaking in the hot tub after a day of snowshoeing was wonderful! The house is nicely appointed with plenty of comfortable seating. Very private location and the house was spotless. Uber fast wi-fi. The kitchen was well stocked with anything you might need. Our only suggestion would be a new mattress as the existing one has divots and is not very comfortable. Otherwise would definitely stay here again.

The property is stunning, we had a great little mountain getaway for the weekend!
The property was absolutely awesome. The rental was very spacious and very well stocked. The private hot tub was so nice to relax in at the end of a long day. The rental staff were great and easy to get a hold of. The check-in and check-out process was so easy. This was an awesome stress free experience. Thank you.

Reviewer Comments:
This cabin was super cozy and better than the pictures. It felt very private and was well equipped. The hot tub was great to warm up in the winter. You definitely need 4-wheel drive or chains in the winter as the road that it is on is not a major street and there are a couple of hills to go up.

The property was amazing. The attention to detail is remarkable—from the wood beams to the professional-grade kitchen. After a day of hiking, the outdoor soaking tub under the stars was a transformative experience. It’s rare to find a place that feels this remote without sacrificing a single modern comfort. Truly a masterclass in secluded upscale living.

Cabin was great, everything as advertised and clean.
It was a beautiful place to stay. We took our bikes and rode from the house to Palisades and back. It’s close to the bike trail. After we went in the hot tub. It was beautiful. We enjoyed the place and would love to come back sometime.
Can’t say a bad thing about this place. It was spotless, beautiful and a great location, wish we could’ve stayed a week! Loved seeing all the birds at the feeder out the front window also. If we ever come back to Tahoe we will stay here again for sure.
We stayed a weekend at Jordan and it completely exceeded our expectations! Beautiful, comfortable and perfect location. 10/10! We can not wait to come back!

Thank you to the owners for sharing their beautiful home. We felt comfortable the moment we stepped inside and saw it was even more stunning in person. We needed a place to de-stress and I was relaxed from the start and the hot tub didn't hurt either. I hope to rent this place in the future. Most rentals are larger and this place is perfect for 2 people.
