A few renter comments:
Loved the log cabin. As recommended by some San Francisco friends, this was the first time we have stayed in Homewood on the West Shore, and prefered it to the south & north shores (less crowded, beautiful beaches, Tahoma Market & Homewood Ski Resort 2 minutes away). Sledding down to the creek was the best! Jerry
The morning and evening walks in the neighborhood and the lake were wonderful - we plan to come again. Zalinski Family
Kids loved the creek below the house and pitched their tent near the water for a few nites. Our bike rides to Sugar Pine Point state park and evenings on the porch at Pine Lodge were exciting. Your home is beautiful ! Wendy & Tom Wells
