Location: Bijou 2, South Lake Tahoe, Lake Tahoe South Shore CA, Lake Tahoe California, California, USA (3 Blocks to Beach or Casino Shuttle) View Map
Accommodations: House, 4 Bedrooms, 2 Baths (Sleeps 10)
This spacious 1811 sq ft home has four bedrooms and two full baths. The downstairs Master bedroom has a king bed and a second and third bedroom have queen-size beds, all with 400+-thread-count linens and plenty of closet space, one upstairs bedroom which we call “the dorm” has 4 twins. Both bathrooms have hairdryers and plenty of plush towels for up to ten people.
Sugar Pine Cabin is nestled in Historic Bijou Pines with wonderful Tahoe charm! This immaculate brand new remodel (2009) is located in a safe, kid-friendly, pine-tree lined neighborhood with historic cabins with minimal traffic great for taking a stroll or riding the bikes we include in the rental. The cabin’s warm, inviting atmosphere is created by the comfortable cabin décor and crackling fireplace (wood included) in the spacious but cozy living room with plenty of seating for your group. Curl up to read one of the books from our library by yourself or play one of the games we have to choose from with the whole group!
The large, remodeled country kitchen is fully equipped with new large and small appliances (blender/food processor, coffee maker, electric tea pot, rice cooker, mixer, immersion blender, toaster, crock pot, coffee grinder, etc.), plenty of pots, pans and utensils including a large spaghetti pot with steamer and a turkey roasting pan, completed with a dining table that seats ten! The beautiful new cabinets are well-stocked, and you’ll love the granite countertops and gas stove. All combine to be a kitchen to really cook in. We’ve even included some of our favorite family recipes for you to try!
In the evening, head out to the inviting backyard to relax in your private hot tub while you enjoy a glass of wine under the stars after a day skiing, or pop in your favorite DVD (we have several to choose from or you can rent one at the nearby Blockbuster or Safeway) to watch on the new 40” High Definition LCD TV (also great for watching ESPN-HD!). Master has a new flat-screen TV, and upstairs in the Dorm is a large-screen TV with DVD player.
The backyard is as inviting as the house with chairs to relax in, a gas grill and jacuzzi. If you’re headed to the beach, we have sand chairs, an ice chest on wheels, sand toys, noodles and more. If you’re here in the winter, we have snow toys as well, along with a mud room for skiers to offload and stow your gear.

Year Purchased: 2009
Why the Owner Chose Bijou 2
Tahoe is one of our favorite spots, plus it's close to where we live, so it made the perfect location for a vacation home. We love bringing our children and grandchildren here for family gatherings so we needed a house large enough to be able to do that. We also wanted a neighborhood safe for the grandkids to walk and bike around the house. We've met all our neighbors and appreciate the fact that the location has such a safe and friendly feel to it.
The Unique Benefits at this House
Fall in Tahoe is beautiful and quiet.Locals absolutely love the Fall!The Kokanee salmon are running!
Bob is a forester, so the landscape, terrain and wildlife of Tahoe is especially appealing. Inviting friends to come up and spend time with us barbecuing, playing games, hiking and just hanging out makes owning this cabin an ideal opportunity.
El Dorado Beach and Boat Ramp is the largest beach area in South Lake Tahoe. It is the place to go for large picnics, launching your boat, renting a kayak or water toy, or viewing the lake
Three blocks away - easy walk! Right on the corner of Rufus Allen and Hwy 50.
South Lake Tahoe Certified Farmer's Market June 9, 2009 to October 13, 2009 American Legion Hall Parking Lot 2732 South Lake Tahoe Blvd (Hwy 50) Tuesdays 8AM - 1PM
Freshies . . . A long standing local favorite for delicious, fresh, organic, healthy food and friendly service. http://www.freshiestahoe.com/ Hint: try to get seated on the roof patio at sunset!

Owner's Map of Bijou 2
We purchased this house in 2009 and have had a great time remodeling and redecorating to make it as accommodating as possible. We love to travel to new areas so we appreciate the extra touches that owners provide to make our stays more enjoyable. We have lived in nearby Placerville, CA since 1985 and Lake Tahoe has always been a favorite vacation spot for us and our family. So it made sense that, when it came time to buy our own vacation home, we would choose there. Recently retired, we are now able to take full advantage of a vacation home and have filled it with all the amenities we appreciate having when we're at our home away from home. We hope you enjoy Sugar Pine Cabin as much as we do, and we hope you'll share your experience with us after your stay so we can continue to make the improvements our guests want.
