About this property

Entire place

You'll have the entire home to yourself and will only share it with other guests in your party.

Spacious lakefront 5BR retreat w/ pier

Morning light moves across Meeks Bay, reflecting off the water and into the living spaces as the lake sits quiet beneath winter skies. Snow settles into the surrounding pines, and evenings invite you indoors to warm fireside moments with wide lake views stretching toward South Lake Tahoe and Nevada. This lakefront setting feels tucked away and calm, yet deeply connected to the landscape in every direction.

The space
This entire home sits directly on Meeks Bay with lake access via a dock and buoy, offering an exclusive-feeling setting with panoramic lake views from nearly every room. Large windows, cathedral-style ceilings, and generous glass doors frame the scenery throughout the main living and dining areas. A wood-burning fireplace anchors the living space, creating a natural gathering point during colder months. Sliding doors open to expansive decks and a stone patio overlooking the lake, with outdoor spaces available seasonally.

Kitchen & living
The kitchen is fully equipped and designed for group meals and shared time, featuring an island with seating, an indoor grill, and an easy flow into the living and dining areas. The dining space connects seamlessly with the living room, where the fireplace, TV, and audio-visual center support relaxed evenings after a day outdoors. A laundry room is located just off the kitchen for convenience during longer stays.

Sleeping arrangements
The home accommodates up to 10 guests across five bedrooms. The primary bedroom on the main level features a king bed, unobstructed lake views, and a private full bath. Two additional main-level bedrooms include one with a queen bed and one with a king bed, both with access to renovated hallway bathrooms with jetted tubs. The fourth bedroom is a two-level loft and den designed with kids in mind, featuring four twin bunk beds, TVs on each level, and a card and game table. The fifth bedroom is located downstairs with two twin beds and can be accessed via the exterior lake-view deck or through the loft stairwell.

Outdoor & lake access
Guests enjoy direct lake access and use of the pier and personal buoy. Multiple decks span different levels of the home, offering elevated perspectives of the bay and surrounding shoreline. Barbecue use is seasonal and not available during winter months.

Internet, parking & practical details
Wi-Fi is provided, though internet service is limited. A dedicated workspace is available for basic needs. Free driveway parking is provided for two vehicles. This home does not have air conditioning and is intended for short-term rental use only.

What's nearby

  • The dock of the Hellman-Ehrman Mansion on the shore of Lake Tahoe in Sugar Pines Point State Park. The lake is magical in itself, but sitting there enjoying the entirety of the scenery is breath-taking. The mansion tour is US $12 and a very nice docent led exploration. The grounds have a lot to see as it is a part of a larger state park. Cheaper than the Vikingsholm tour nearby and much less crowded.

Fabulous Summer Spot

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was more than satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We had an awesome stay with two families here last summer. The house was well appointed and the ping pong table was a hit with everyone. Access the the lake is ideal and the deck was perfect for relaxing with this spectacular view. Terrific location if your members can handle the many stairs up and down from parking to house and house to lake (also note construction expected thru 2025 on adjacent lot)

Amazing, Private, Top Notch

This place has everything you need to have an amazing vacation at Lake Tahoe. The views from the deck and dock are unforgettable, and the house has all the space and amenities you could want. We were able to dock our boat in the private boat house which made boating the lake even easier.

Beautiful home, beautiful view!

We rented the property for a girl's weekend. The place was perfect! Amazing views! Outdoorsy girls did nearby hiking; other girls went into town for shopping. We hired a personal chef at the recommendation of the property company. It was a perfect evening and a fabulous weekend!
