Beach Front Condo Walk to All Shops & Restaurants
Bill’s condo was an absolute gem! It exceeded all our expectations with its clean, comfortable space and top-notch amenities like an in-unit washer/dryer, dishwasher, TVs in every room, board games, and a power awning that shades the deck. The location was unbeatable—just steps from the lake and within walking distance of great restaurants. We enjoyed stunning sunrises, from both the master bedroom patio and 2nd floor deck, and stargazing from the pier. Bill was an exceptional host, always available and helpful. We highly recommend this place for a fantastic Lake Tahoe getaway! We’ll definitely be coming back!"

Cozy North Shore Lake Tahoe Cabin
We had such a wonderful time at Glenn’s cabin. Perfect location with no issues at all. Glenn was very polite and had great communication. Highly recommend!

Mid week winter deals! Steps to Lake & GarWoods!
My family had so much fun visiting Ellen’s cabin - the house was great! Location was perfect, and the house had everything we needed. Ellen was super communicative and helpful throughout our stay. Would absolutely stay here again!
Tahoe City 3BR sleeps 8 close to Palisades Tahoe
Awesome place that has a rustic but updated (very homey) Tahoe vibe. I stayed at Kathleen's place with my two toddler sons and they loved walking around the property and scoping out the lake. The whole family really enjoyed the place. Close to Tahoe city, ski resorts, and snow parks. Definitely a great house for a family to stay when they go to Tahoe. I would definitely return.

Mid-Century Modern A-frame cabin by the lake
We had a great stay with our two small kids. We had everything we needed and the kids had a great time playing in the snow even just within in the neighborhood.

LAKEFRONT CABIN // Stay right on Lake Tahoe!
This place is amazing! It’s not fancy, but it’s incredibly peaceful and cozy. It makes you want to just stay in, enjoy the beautiful lake view, sip coffee in the sun, or take a nap by the crackling fire. Actually, that's what we did most time during our 2 nights stay. My wife, our 2-year-old son, and I truly enjoyed our stay and would love to come back!

Tahoe City Sunnyside, "Tahoe decor"
One of the best Airbnb stays we’ve ever had. This home is definitely a gem and Ron does an incredible job making our stay the absolute best!

Lakefront Relaxation - Lakeland Village #622
This condo was the perfect rental for us for the weekend. It is extremely close to heavenly and all the hotels, there is a Whole Foods and Safeway near by, and you have a beautiful lake view! Our only complaint was that they told us we would get 3 parking passes, but the lobby only gave us two initially. However RnR had quick responses via text and they were able to get us an additional pass within the hour. They even dropped it off under our door which was very kind of them. We loved the rental and will be back!

Tahoe Park BEACH Access- walk to Beach & Sunnyside
Enjoyed a great stay here with our family of five over MLK weekend in 2025. Check in notes were helpful to let us know what was there versus what we needed to bring. Check in was easy and everything we used worked great! We didn’t need to contact host much but when we did, we got a promotion reply. Place is a little noisy being on a main thoroughfare, but the bedrooms are all in the back, which helps. The noise didn’t bother us. Overall I definitely recommend.

Large Lake Home with STUNNING VIEWS - Sleeps 16
This place was perfect! Super clean, spacious, and had everything we needed to feel right at home. Waking up to the marina views every morning was amazing, and the location was spot on!! Close to great food and coffee, shopping, and fun things to do. Derick and Thy was awesome and made everything super easy. Honestly, we didn’t want to leave. Would 100% stay here again!

Tahoe City Lake view & Lakeside Multi-Family home
We are a three generation family of nine who love to ski. We were new to Lake Tahoe. This was a wonderful home for our group - each bedroom had a private bathroom as well as a fireplace and TV. The kitchen and living areas were spacious, clean and comfortable. We loved (and used often!) the sauna and hot tub and enjoyed the pool table and game room. Great place that we would be happy to book again.

Close to ski resorts and walk to Sunnyside
This Cabin was a located in a great spot. Not too far off from the main town yet secluded enough to enjoy ourselves. The house in itself was very well put together it had all the amenities we needed that not many Airbnbs offer. Our family of 6 had more than enough room to be together yet have our own little spaces as well. I equipped with a great kitchen to cook all our meals and board games to keep the kids entertained. Close to restaurants and outdoor attractions m. Definitely recommend and would love to come again during the summer season.

Beautiful Meeks Bay Bliss & Panoramic Lake Views!
We had a wonderful stay. The house is as beautiful as it looks in pictures, with a beautiful view of the lake. It was extremely clean and well stocked with supplies. Linda was a very communicative host and provided clear and detailed instructions for our stay. Would highly recommend!

Beach & Ski ~steps to Lake, 5 min to lifts. 4bd
Jeanie was wonderful and so responsive! She allowed us early check in at no additional cost. Check in was easy and check out was not burdensome. The surroundings were breathtaking, bedrooms large and spacious, bathrooms clean and everything including the kitchen was extremely well stocked. Though I did not bring my children on this trip I noticed a high chair and sleds that’s my kids would have greatly enjoyed. I highly encourage a stay here. The town near by has tons of activities including sledding, a gondola, skiing, shops, casinos, and spas. Truly a gem!

RHAPSODY LODGE -- Yours for All Seasons
We absolutely loved this place. The house was wonderful and in a perfect location. Gary was also very nice and helpful. We are definitely planning on staying here again!

"Little Dipper" Magical&Romantic Mountain Modern
The most gorgeous tiny home cabin where the space is used so effectively! Small kitchen with everything you need. Big bathroom, cozy shower. Comfy linen. Great layout of the living room with cute decorations. It’s everything we wanted for a cozy cabin weekend. Walkable to the lake. Great amenity for the summer. Hot tub was fine sharing with Big Dipper :)

Lake Tahoe A-Frame Cabin - 1 Block from Lake
It was such a great stay at this lovely cabin. We felt very refreshed and cozy despite we arrived very late on Friday. It was right nearby the lake, which is great location. The surrounding was peaceful, and the cabin itself was very beautiful and well furnished and decorated. Everything was easy to use and can find everything needed. We love the stay.

Lighthus: A Contemporary Tahoe Retreat
I can’t say enough great things about this home!! It was beautiful and just what we needed for a weekend getaway. The house was well equipped, and made it extremely easy to feel right at home. William was also super responsive throughout our entire trip and also very thorough. Can’t wait to be back!!

A-frame with A+ View
Wonderful location and the best view! Cabin was very cozy and the decks + hot tub views were amazing. Kitchen was well stocked and we were able to cook meals. Host was very proactive about home updates and responded quickly to questions!

Dog Friendly Beadle Cabin Near Lake Beach & Dining
Chris let us check in early. That was much appreciated. We did not realize we could walk across the street to Gar Woods.. a restaurant we frequent when we visit Tahoe. The place was clean and matched the photos. We used all 4 bedrooms for our 3 families and enjoyed spending time together. We lucked out on both weather and traffic.

Charming Tahoma Cabin - Lake Tahoe West Shore
This cabin is a great place to stay for a weekend at Tahoe. There was everything you could think of for a good weekend trip - board games, grill, hot tub, wood fireplace, and a big backyard. The cabin was super cozy and our group really enjoyed the space!
Charming Cabin on a stream West Shore
Great stay for group of friends for a weeklong ski trip. Place was even better than the photos. Fireplace excellent for drying out wet ski gear. Couch was comfy and big enough for someone to sleep on. Steep street up to driveway, definitely bring chains or 4WD to get up it on snowy days. Overall would recommend this place!

West Shore Hideout | Hot Tub | Walk to Beach!
If I had a cabin in Tahoe, I’d love this one. It’s cozy, fully stocked, feels like home. I also love the hot tub, the location, the trees, and the host’s attention to our wellbeing. Best way to spend a birthday weekend with my family.
Your guide to Lake Tahoe
Welcome to Lake Tahoe
It’s tempting to describe Lake Tahoe, with its glittering blue waters, as a jewel, but that doesn’t get at the size of it. Lofted high in the Sierra Nevadas, ringed by snow-capped mountains, and straddling the California and Nevada borders, Lake Tahoe is one of the largest lakes in the United States, and the second deepest. Renowned for its clear, fresh water, the lake is an important research station for scientists who study its ecology and a picturesque playground for every type of waterfront fun. Fishing, boating, swimming, jet skiing, and scuba diving are all popular pastimes here. And plenty of visitors are content simply to relax on its many beaches, in the shade of towering pines. Thanks to Lake Tahoe’s size, the communities surrounding it are varied: Chic bohemian enclaves, rustic cowboy outposts, and glitzy casinos all cluster near its shores.
The best time to stay in a vacation rental in Lake Tahoe
For lakefront fun, summer is the high season to stay in one of Lake Tahoe’s cabin rentals, when the sun is high and hot and the cool alpine waters of Lake Tahoe are refreshing. The shoulder seasons of fall and spring also make for pleasant times on the water, particularly for boating and fishing. In winter the region transforms into a skiers’ paradise, with snow falling from December through March. During these months, the lake is a pretty backdrop for cold-weather sports.
Top things to do in Lake Tahoe
72-mile Scenic Drive
Start your journey at any point on the loop circumnavigating the vast lake for a chance to explore all the area has to offer. On your scenic ramble, you’ll pass historic homes, fascinating history museums, scenic overlooks, state parks, and characterful mountain communities, with gorgeous Lake Tahoe at your shoulder the whole time.
Tour Grand Homes
Long a destination for the wealthy, many of the grand estates that line Lake Tahoe’s shores have been turned into museums that you can tour. There’s the Ehrman Mansion, an opulent circa-1903 lodge built by a rich businessman from San Francisco, now run by the California State Park System. Thunderbird Estate, built in the 1930s, is notable for its stunning stonemasonry, ironwork, and woodwork. A short hike will carry you to Vikingsholm, a 1920s estate inspired by Scandinavian architecture.
Emerald Bay State Park
So named for its often vividly green waters, Emerald Bay is a postcard-pretty spot on the south side of Lake Tahoe. The area is home to striking vistas overlooking the bay, hiking trails, and the Vikingsholm estate. Just off the shore is little Fannette Island, accessible only by boat. Its granite face is covered in pines, and on top sits the shell of a stone tea house where ritzy vacationers of yore once relaxed.
