1157 Early dawn trail.

Easy check in. Dishwasher running for hours after check in, found out it was empty? Later during stay loaded and tried to run, but ended emptying it and washing all dishes by hand ( all dishes inside were dirty and still dry?) Leak under sink( someone had placed a bowl under prior?) Evidence of mouse under sink and mouse poop by kitchen table. We realize that it is a cabin but it could use some additional pest/weatherproofing. Tried to report to someone but only reached automated options. Rest of stay was good, nice location, comfortable beds, clean bathrooms and nice backyard. Ten o'clock checkout was doable but eleven would have been better.

South Lake Tahoe Gem: A Cozy Retreat

This charming Lake Tahoe cottage was a delightful find. Nestled in a peaceful neighborhood, it offered the perfect blend of comfort and tranquility. The cozy interior, complete with a well-equipped kitchen, made it a pleasure to call home. As a dog owner, I appreciated the fenced yard with the green lawn. It matched the listing photos perfectly, which was fantastic. The yard was amazing for late nights when the forest came alive. It provided a safe and spacious space for my furry friend to roam. While there was a minor hiccup with the initial cleanliness, the property manager promptly addressed the issue. Overall, this hidden gem exceeded expectations and is highly recommended for anyone seeking a cozy and comfortable Lake Tahoe getaway.

Another great trip to South Lake Tahoe

This was our second trip to the same house. We loved it and we will try to come back next year. We may even try to come back during the summer if available. Great house for a family. And if you have a dog, the fence yard is a plus, and the neighborhood dog friendly. Beds are super comfy.

Great location and home

The home had all that we needed. Great private backyard with propane fire pit (although we had to buy our own tank to use). Was a little surprised that while the home was pet friendly, we were not allowed to leave our small dog alone in the house. Made it a challenge to coordinate excursions we planned to do. Overall still a great time

Late Winter Escape

Booked the house for a week of work/play. The house is setup well for remote work - large kitchen (plenty of room) and a desk setup in the master bedroom. Very nice furnishings with a woodburning stove in the family room. Large backyard was great fun for the pups. 10/10 experience - would def stay here again.

Small But Mighty Cabin

Our family of 4 (including 2 kids under age 10) loved staying at the Lazy Golden Cabin. It's a small house, but somehow it never felt cramped. Clearly the inside of the cabin has been renovated and they did a great job of making the house feel larger than it is. The house was clean and very well equipped with everything from games and toys for young children to a well stocked kitchen (knives, pots and pans, plenty of glasses and cups) and recommendations for restaurants and things to do. The enclosed backyard was nice for our dog and our kids, who enjoyed playing there during a major snowfall. The cabin is well situated in South Lake Tahoe. We didn't ski, but we were close to other activities like tubing/sledding, ice skating, Heavenly Village, restaurants, a grocery store, etc. Vacasa, the company managing the cabin, was extremely helpful. They were available by phone and text throughout our stay and were always prompt with their replies. I highly recommend this home and wouldn't hesitate to stay there again.

Great house in a great location!

This was a very nice and new looking house along pioneer trail. Convenient to Kirkwood, Heavenly, and restaurants along hwy 50. For being a smaller house it was very spacious and comfortable inside. Lots of room for people to eat and sit around the TV and fireplace. Very clean with nice amenities. It was the best Tahoe property I've rented yet for our 1 year old daughter. The house was filled with toys, a crib, and a high chair. Made our packing a lot easier. We don't have a dog at the moment but if we did I would have loved to take them here too to run around in the fenced in back yard.
