The Space:
Tiny Shaver | A Tiny Home in the Heart of Shaver Lake Village
Whether you're looking for a special getaway in the woods, or a quiet place to unwind, this luxurious tiny mountain lodge awaits. It has all the rustic luxury and charm of a ski lodge resort, packed into a unique 400-square-foot space! A trailhead on the property leads to Camp Edison and the Lake! Located right behind Ken's Market and Shaver Lake Hotel, park in the garage and walk to all your favorite restaurants and shops in Shaver. Unplug and spend quality time on the front deck, playing cards around the table, or snuggling up to watch TV or cuddling in front of the fireplace, easily workable with an on/off switch. Large windows let the mountain light stream in and provide picturesque views of the surroundings. Washer and dryer, Wifi, and free parking are provided.
There is another vacation rental (a dome home) next to the tiny home, providing a unique yet private setting for travelers looking to stay close to friends or family. If you're interested in booking the other rental let us know!
The Space
The tiny home is located above a garage. You'll enter through the garage, where you'll see the washer and dryer, a card table and BBQ for hanging out downstairs on summer days, parking, and storage. Toward the back of the garage, stairs will lead you up to the living space. As soon as you enter the door, you'll fall in love! A mix of natural textures, neutral colors, and rustic pieces come together for the perfect tiny mountain lodge. On your right, the queen bed pulls down from the cabinet and features a memory foam mattress and high-end linens. The door to the bathroom was crafted out of a tree slab by a local artist! Every feature was carefully designed to keep the integrity of a true Shaver Lake cabin. The fully equipped kitchen has every appliance needed to cook a warm meal while you're in town. If you forgot any ingredients, Ken's Market is just a few steps out the front door! The sliding glass doors open to the balcony. We love to sit and people-watch during the busy season. Sometimes, there are events right in the parking lot in front of the cabin! In the slow season, snuggle up and watch the snow fall, or wait by the window for wildlife to mosey nearby.
The Neighborhood
Located in the heart of the Shaver Lake Village, just behind Ken's Market, to the left of the Shaver Lake Hotel. Walk to every restaurant and shop in Shaver! There is a trailhead, the "Town Trail" located on the North end of the property, which leads to Camp Edison campground, museum, and eventually the lake! Walk by Shaver Stables, through towering trees, and incredible rock formations. Rent water sports gear, kayaks, boats, etc. at the first dock just 5 minutes away! Easy 25-minute drive to China Peak Ski Resort and Huntington Lake. While you're in town, check out Mono Hot Springs, Dinkey Creek Honeymoon Pools, and Rancheria Falls! The Shaver area is a community, rich in generations of family memories and natural beauty. Shaver Lake is a popular lake for water sports activities. Water skiing, jet skis, and windsurfing are some of the activities available at this mountain lake. Canoe and kayak enthusiasts will find many out-of-the-way coves and miles of shoreline to explore.
