About this property
Beautifully Redesigned 5Br, Near Lake and Heavenly
Summary:
Welcome to The Heartwood Lodge Tahoe! A spacious, family-friendly South Lake Tahoe cabin perfectly designed for connection, comfort, and fun — a short walk to Lake Tahoe beaches, trails, a few local restaurants, and more. This 5-bedroom home features a private hot tub, game-filled bunk room wing, pool table, outdoor and indoor ping pong, and plenty of cozy gathering spaces, surrounded by tall pines.
The Space:
Whether you’re here for summer lake days, crisp fall bike rides, or a winter getaway near the slopes, The Heartwood Lodge is your home base for year-round Tahoe adventures.
Heartwood Lodge Tahoe blends the charm of classic Tahoe craftsmanship with modern comfort and family-friendly fun — modern comfort with a mountain soul.
The main living area invites relaxation with plush seating around a wood-burning fireplace and a smart TV for cozy nights. The fully equipped kitchen features high-end appliances, including an induction cooktop, extra-large oven, Nespresso machine, and air fryer — everything you need to cook, gather, and entertain with ease.
Kids (and kids at heart) will love the back game room and bunk bed room, featuring a Ms. Pac-Man multi-game arcade, PlayStation 5, convertible pool / ping pong / game table, smart TV, a large sectional, and a corner lounge area which converts into two additional twin beds. The nearby bunk room includes six custom-built bunks, each with its own USB charging port.
Adults can enjoy quiet conversation up front while the kids have their own space in back — a layout families and groups consistently love. There’s also a third living area in the corner bedroom, complete with a modular sofa and smart TV. With three separate living spaces, the home offers plenty of room to spread out or come together for connection and fun.
After a day on the slopes or by the lake, unwind in the private hot tub, grill dinner outdoors, or simply relax beneath the pines with a drink in hand.

The Neighborhood:
The Heartwood Lodge Tahoe is nestled in a tranquil and family friendly neighborhood that perfectly captures the spirit of mountain living. You are ideally positioned to enjoy the best of South Lake Tahoe with El Dorado Beach just a short 0.4 mile walk away and the scenic shores of Regan Beach reachable in under a mile. The area is surrounded by beautiful pine forests and meadow trails that are perfect for morning walks or afternoon bike rides. For dining and local entertainment you will find several charming restaurants and shops within easy reach. The community recreation center located right across the street offers year round ice skating providing fun for all ages regardless of the season. Whether you are looking to hit the slopes or spend a relaxing day by the water this location serves as the ultimate basecamp for your mountain adventures.
Getting Around:
Heartwood Lodge Tahoe provides convenient on-site parking with six dedicated spaces in the driveway. Please note that city ordinances strictly prohibit street parking, so all vehicles must be kept within the driveway area. For those arriving by air, Reno Tahoe International Airport is the primary hub, located approximately one hour and fifteen minutes from the cabin. While we highly recommend having a vehicle to fully enjoy the surrounding mountains and lake, local bus services are available to transport you to nearby ski resorts and major points of interest. The property is also situated near sidewalks and bike rental shops, making it easy to explore South Lake Tahoe at your own pace.
