About this property

Cedar Cottage by Hauserman Rentals

  • // This home is a short term rental only \\

    **PETS PROHIBITED**

    Step into a true Old Tahoe classic—this Bert Anderson-designed West Shore cabin features pecky cedar inside and out and sits adjacent to National Forest land for that authentic “cabin in the woods” experience. With an efficient footprint (2 bedrooms / 1 bathroom in 832 sq. ft.), it’s the perfect basecamp for couples, small families, or friends who want big nature access and a cozy place to recharge.

    Natural wood textures, cabin charm, and a comfortable main living area set the tone for a relaxing Tahoe stay. Unplug after a day outside, settle in for a movie night, or plan tomorrow’s adventure over a drink and board games. The modern kitchen is sleek, fully equipped, and ready for meals at home.

    OUTDOOR FEATURES
    Enjoy the fresh mountain air from the property’s wooded setting—morning coffee under the pines, post-hike downtime, and starry skies at night. Quiet neighborhood adjacent to Ward Creek State Park.

    Parking is limited to 3 spaces.
