The Big House on the Lake.
An incredible stay for me and my husband plus our two pups. It’s private and peaceful and was a great space for our pups to run around. Pamela is a great communicator and responsive. The house has majority of the cooking essentials you’ll need. It was a great place to stay!

Mid week winter deals! Steps to Lake & GarWoods!
We had such a great stay here with family and friends over the weekend! The cabin was beautiful, in a great location, and the host was super friendly and responsive. One thing that really stood out was how well-stocked everything was, which isn’t something we’ve typically seen at other Airbnbs. The kitchen had everything we needed, from pots and pans to coffee machines, spices, and seasonings, which was perfect since we did a lot of cooking. Just a heads-up if you’re a coffee person: they provide the machines but not the coffee, so be sure to bring your own! The place was also dog-friendly, which was a huge plus. We loved that there were tons of games, activities, and even outdoor gear to keep everyone entertained. You can tell the host really cares about the guest experience, and we’d definitely stay here again. Highly recommend!

Lakeside Tahoe Cabin w/ Private Beach + Sleeps 8
Claire was always responsive and kind. The cabin was amazing for our family's Christmas trip. Beautiful surroundings and view! Kitchen accommodated cooking a full Christmas dinner, the dining area was perfect for family puzzles and board games, and the ping pong and foosball were a hit with everyone. A Christmas we are sure to cherish forever.
Tahoe City 3BR sleeps 8 close to Palisades Tahoe
We had a wonderful stay! Great location on the water and near the town and great restaurants. It was so lovely to wake up to the gorgeous lake view from the master bedroom in the mornings. Would definitely stay here again!

North Lake Tahoe Vacation Home
Mike’s place was great! Awesome value, very convenient location.

999 Lakeshore | Beachfront Ski Cabin | Tahoe (#47)
Cindy place was amazing! It’s located right next to the Hyatt which we did not take advance of (but wish we did)! It was very easy to get to Mt. Rose to ski every day. The place was very clean, and it had cable tv. We totally want to come back here next year for New Years and hope they will host us again!

Tahoe City Sunnyside, "Tahoe decor"
We stayed here for a couple of days and loved the place. It’s right in the middle of town, close to all the facilities and is very well maintained. Ron was very helpful and proactive and gave us good tips before and during our stay here Double thumbs up !!

Lake Views in 3bdr Family Home w/ Hottub
We took the family for a long weekend and couldn’t have asked for a better spot. The property offered the perfect balance of privacy and proximity to the lake. Everything was either within walking distance or just a short 5-minute drive away. The home was exceptionally clean, and the neighborhood was peaceful and quiet—exactly what we were hoping for. The host was incredibly responsive and made sure we had everything we needed throughout our stay. We’d absolutely love to come back. Thanks so much!

#3*Private HotTub & Yard*Lake Tahoe*Reno <19 miles
very cute cottage so many cute little lights n everything felt like a nice apartment had many cool amenities the hot tub n outdoor was so nice

Glass House Retreat Luxe Tahoe Getaway Amenities
We had a wonderful weekend stay at the Glass House! It was just as beautiful as the pictures promised! The amenities were fantastic, and we particularly loved the hot tub and sauna, which provided the perfect way to unwind after a day on the slopes. The beds were incredibly comfortable, and the chef's kitchen was a fantastic bonus for preparing meals. Communication with our host was quick and convenient, making the check-in process seamless. This home is ideal for a ski weekend, offering plenty of entertainment and relaxation options right within the house. We would absolutely love to come back and rent this spot again in the future!

Zephyr's Whisper! Views, Hot Tub, Yard, Pets Ok
We had such a wonderful stay with our two young kids and two dogs. The fenced in yard and amenities for the kids made it a very comfortable place for a family. Loved the stocked kitchen, kids toys and crib/high chair. Would definitely stay here again. Also the neighborhood was quiet and peaceful.

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.

Cozy North Shore Lake Tahoe Cabin
My family very much enjoyed our stay. The kitchen has everything you might possibly need, and we cooked several meals. The beds are firm but comfortable, and the house is close to everything, especially the Raley’s grocery. Thanks to Glenn for sharing your home!

Charming cabin fenced yard & private hot tub pet
We had a great stay at Marci’s house. Everything was as described. The location is great-so close to the lake & a short drive to Truckee, North Star etc. The beds were comfy & all appliances were very new. The big back yard was great & we enjoyed the gas fireplace. The only negative is the hot tub is in the backyard so a bit of a walk through the snow to get to it in the winter. Not a deal breaker but just something to note. Would stay again.

Spring Deals! Walk to beach, Hot Tub!
Very spacious house, conveniently located close to Lake Blvd, providing a short drive to Kings Beach, Northstar, Tahoe City, and the Alpine and Palisades resorts. The house is quite spacious, with plenty of sitting space, a good kitchen and dining room space. There is room for 4 cars in the driveway, plus one or two in the garage (depending on your parking skills ;-), which is nice. My friends and I are already thinking of trying to rent this lodge again next year (although this review may make it more difficult...). We had a small issue with the hot tub -- it was perfectly usable (it is really big too), but the jets did not function correctly every time. This has been reported and given Madelyn's responsiveness, I am confident that this will be solved.

A Great 2 bdrm/2 bath fully fenced Remodeled house
Ali's place was absolutely fantastic. It was recently remodeled and everything was thought out well and is quite comfortable. We'd 100% stay here again if given the opportunity. Thank you!

Lakefront Relaxation - Lakeland Village #622
Couldn't have been more happy with the location of this townhome! Just a few steps to the private lake beach! The view was wonderful! The home had everything we needed and was very roomy and comfortable! Loved our stay, thanks!

Large Lake Home with STUNNING VIEWS - Sleeps 16
Our group had a great stay here. 12 adults fit comfortably, and we appreciated the variety of bed set ups and descriptions of each bedroom in the listing so we could sort out room assignments ahead of time. The place felt bigger than the photos made it seem, and we really enjoyed walking the path around the lake in the morning. Quiet little street right on the water that's convenient to all the main roads and attractions - can't beat it. Derick and Thy were super helpful and friendly - they even sent someone over to remedy a malfunctioning coffee maker. Would definitely recommend, and will be staying again if we're ever in the area again!

Close to ski resorts and walk to Sunnyside
We had a wonderful stay with Amanda. Communication was great and the place was easy to find and well stocked and very comfortable. We would stay again next ski season when we make our plans.

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!

Country Style Mountain Home - View of Lake Forebay
This is the second time we are staying at their place..so that tells it all. We really like the location and the house. I only wish there was more snow in the region when we went couple of weeks back. We are looking back for going back in next time.

Beach & Ski ~steps to Lake, 5 min to lifts. 4bd
Gigi is a great host and was very responsive to our requests. Her home in Zephyr Cove is beautiful and homey! My family and I had a wonderful stay.

RHAPSODY LODGE -- Yours for All Seasons
Gary’s home was wonderful, from the start, check-in was easy and cleaning was visibly held to a high standard. The house was stocked with everything we needed and everything mentioned worked as intended. The location and neighborhood are great and would stay again without a doubt!

Classic Ski & Summer Fun Cozy Cabin PET Friendly!
This place is absolutely wonderful! The location is perfect, and the space itself is both beautiful and cozy—a great choice for families or couples looking for a getaway. June was an exceptional host—responsive, accommodating, and incredibly helpful. She met us at check-in, gave us a thorough tour of the property, and shared excellent recommendations for local restaurants, grocery stores, and nearby ski resorts. Despite our arrival being delayed due to traffic, June was understanding and flexible, which made the whole experience stress-free. I can’t recommend this place enough and look forward to staying here again soon!
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.
