We look back on a very nive week by the lake in this beautiful cabin. We especially enjoyed the garden, eating all our meals at the table outside. The old photographs and memorabilia taught us about the history of this area. Your personal touches made us feel very comfortable and at home!

We woke early Friday morning and decided we needed to escape to Tahoe for the weekend. We blindly chose this place because of the hottub, and out best four-legged friend could join us. When we opened the door late Friday night, our hearts melted. This place couldn't have been more perfect. You have a little piece of heaven...

We had such a wonderful time here! This cabin has so much personality! It's so cozy it felt like home the whole time. I love all the old photos, and of course the hottub was great in the snow. Wish we could stay here forever. Thanks for welcoming us into this great spot! See you next season!

What an amazing place to spend the first part of our honeymoon! We had a huge wedding and found ourselves exhausted when we got here. We were able to relax and slow down, sleep and recover from all that went into our special day. Thank you for offering such a peaceful and wonderful place.
