Quiet Tahoe getaway surrounded by trees & trails

MichaelRating, 5 stars3 months ago
Our best winter (Christmas trip) yet! My family & I have been spending Christmas week in Tahoe for years and this home is the first property that we want to come back to again! It is a mixture of the listing is a home and has all the comforts of an actual home. The location is amazing for skiing, dinning, shopping and still being walkable to "backcountry" trails. Lel is an amazing host and her heart to serve is what makes staying there that much better. She really took care of us for some of our winter adventures! As an Airbnb host myself, Lel's place (including her as a host) is the full package!

This lovely home was the perfect place for a relaxing weekend - the fireplace, hot tub and beautiful fenced backyard were incredible, and the well-stocked kitchen were the cherry on top.

Mv8 lakeview across from Heavenly

NataliaRating, 5 stars2 months ago
We had an amazing stay at this property! The gorgeous views were absolutely breathtaking, and the location couldn’t be better—super close to the ski slopes while still feeling private and peaceful. The house had everything we needed, making it a comfortable and seamless getaway. One small note—the air from the heater was quite dry, so I’d recommend bringing a small humidifier or using the old trick of placing a pot of water on the stove to add some moisture. Other than that, this place was perfect—the views and location are truly stellar! Would absolutely stay here again.
The exterior of a modern white house is framed by a well-maintained yard featuring diverse greenery and decorative stone pathways. Wooden fencing surrounds the property, and seating areas are visible under a pergola, inviting outdoor relaxation.

Ambrosia Hour on the Creek #2

AprilRating, 5 stars1 month ago
Greg's place is lovely in it's location and quality of the the cottage - everything is brand new! While it's a nice little getaway into the mountains, you should be warned you should have things to do when you get there, as there is no tv or games in the home yet. This wasn't a problem for us because we brought our laptops, but it's something to note. The town of Markelville was very small and everyone was kind that we encountered. We would stay here again based on how great out stay went.

Avilla's Last Resort

AsaRating, 5 stars1 month ago
This is a great home base to stay and do winter activities with kids. There's a beachside park in walking distance, along with plenty of food options and a bus stop that takes you all around Tahoe including to Northstar. My toddler loved the backyard in the snow. All the appliances worked, the heater kept the whole house evenly heated, everything was clean and comfortable. We would definitely stay here again.

Robin Cottage - Filtered Lake Views Near Ski!

BrentRating, 5 stars33 months ago
We had a great experience all the way around. The location is great. Right on the bike trail and super close to the lake. Can ride bikes on the trail all the way to Meeks Bay if you want or into Tahoe city. The housekeeping team did a great job getting the unit ready for us. We had a couple of questions during our stay and Emily was available to help via phone late on a Friday afternoon and on a Saturday AM. I would highly recommend.
