Comfortable cabin in Tahoma on Tahoe's West Shore! Located in a quiet, wooded neighborhood, you can totally relax in this 2 Bedroom, 1 Bath cabin. Cruise on one of the two bikes provided, take a hike nearby, see the view from a kayak or challenge someone's mind with one of the many board games. Enjoy the perfect weather as you dine al fresco out back on the new paver patio, or stay inside to cozy up around the free-standing, wood-burning fireplace in the living room for those chilly nights.

Inside this "Old Tahoe" style, 2-story cabin, you will find all the basic amenities of a home away from home, including a full kitchen with a new electric range and oven, a countertop microwave, and plenty of cookware. The breakfast bar divides the well-stocked kitchen and the dining area and brings the total number of seats for dining up to 8. The open living room boasts a Smart TV for streaming entertainment powered by the home's WIFI.

Each of the two bedrooms upstairs offers both a Cal King and Twin bed but does not feel cramped in the least. The bathroom features a large vanity and a stand-up shower. The laundry area can be found outside the bathroom next to the back door. There's plenty of fun to be had while at the cabin or venture out to the HOA accessible beach or one of Tahoe's must-see places like Chamber's Landing just a short drive (or a longer bike ride) away!

Perfect for an active yet economical family outing or any group looking for adventure with a serene home base!

**Maximum Occupancy = 6 Persons Total BUT 2 persons must under the age of 6. (any person age 6 or older is counted as an adult by El Dorado County)
