Charming Pet Friendly Chalet, Great Location, Walk To The Lake

Come relax at Lake Tahoe in our family’s charming chalet on the beautiful and peaceful West Shore. Our cabin is updated and completely furnished.

Each of the four bedrooms (two upstairs, two downstairs) contain a queen size bed and all linens are provided for your comfort and convenience. Each bedroom also has individually-controlled baseboard heating. The two bathrooms (one upstairs, one downstairs) have been remodeled and updated.

Just bring your food and favorite beverages and enjoy preparing your meals in the modern and fully stocked kitchen. And if you forgot to bring something, the local (and newly remodeled) Tahoma Market is just a short drive or a 10 minute walk. They have great sandwiches too! For coffee drinkers or gelato lovers, check out "Where We Met," a cute little (seasonal) coffee shop just down the street.

During the warm summer days you can relax on the deck while enjoying the serenity of the West Shore, and when it gets chilly outside you can cozy up inside with a roaring fire in the wood burning stove.

A short walk to the beach -- only two blocks away! Provided with your stay is full access to the beach and pier at the Water’s Edge. You can also walk or bike to Sugar Pine Point State Park, or hit the slopes at Homewood Ski Resort less than 3 miles away.

As noted, we are dog friendly, but do charge a flat $100 non-refundable pet fee. If you are bringing you dog(s), when selecting the number of guests, click on the "Yes" button for pets.

My family and I had a great time during our winter vacation. The cabin offered everything we needed. Communication with property manager was great. The wi-if worked very well which allowed me to do some work. We were very content with the space and overall area.

Christmas at tahoma
The cabin is cozy and well equipped! Enough rooms and bed! There was even extra foldable kids bed! We are a Mexican family so to have a comal lol (tortilla pan) was a big plus and a surprise! We were able to see it snow and even see a bear family around for us that was exciting! The lake is less than 1/2 mile walk! Several sightseeing are close by and the sugar pine national park was a beautiful place for our morning walk! (Less than a 1/4 of a mile away!! Host communicated very good! He even has a binder with the closest restaurant and fun activities near by! Definitely recommend

Cutest cabin in Tahoe!
We had a great stay here! Close to trails, room to grill and hangout outside, and play boardgames inside. Plenty of space for our group to have big dinners and then cuddle on the couch next to the fire. I would definitely recommend this place!!!

Will definitely be back!
Property was exactly as described and fit all the needs for our stay. There were enough rooms to fit the different families we had traveling and gave everyone their own space. Perfect place for kids! The park down the street was a nice surprise. The set up of the house made it easy to block off the upstairs so the littles stayed downstairs. Communication with the host was excellent. We’ll definitely be back.

Great value
We enjoyed our stay. Several attractions within a short drive, but not a lot in walking distance. House was clean and the bedrooms were spacious. Everything worked properly. Outdoors/yard space is a bit limited. Lots of parking.

Great for families together
We enjoyed staying in this rental during our trip to Lake Tahoe! We visited with four adults, a child, and a dog. Given that this is a pet-friendly property, it was nice to see that it was in good general shape, though the routine cleaning was middle-of-the-road. A lot of the house was dusty and the upstairs bathroom was sandy when we arrived. This wasn't a big problem for us, but it might be for others.

We had a wonderful stay at the cabin. Amazing location - super close to the beach, a playground, and the local restaurants/market/ice cream spots. The house was exactly as pictured, and I appreciate that it was well stocked with basics like baggies, salt/pepper, ketchup, etc. Check in was super easy, and we had no issues during our stay. When we were leaving, my 5-year-old asked, "when we come here next time...", so I guess we'll be back next summer!!

Cozy Cabin
We really enjoyed our stay at this lovely cabin! It had everything we needed and was so comfortable. It was very clean and well laid out with the 4 bedrooms and 2 baths. We were 4 adults but this cabin could easily accommodate 8 people. I highly recommend this cabin!

Gutowsky Cabin
The property location was great. The cabin had all the facilities that made our stay comfortable. However, the cabin was not cleaned properly. The couch in the living room had a lot of pet hair and the floors didn’t seem to be mopped. The side tables and bed headboards were little dusty.

Great spot!
Had a great time at Gary’s place. Terry, the property manager, was very helpful as well. Unfortunately the washing machine broke before our arrival, so we didn’t have access to it during our stay. Terry let us know in advance and both she and Gary were accommodating to our arrival time, even though it was outside the checkin time. The cabin is great! Plenty of room for our group of 8 that spanned infant to adult. Plus a dog. Board games and a well stocked kitchen. It’s close to the lake and multiple state parks. We especially liked Sugar Pine Point State Park nearby. There’s also a playground down the street for the kiddos to run out their energy. Highly recommend!
