About this property

Rustic Sol........All warmth and coziness

The name of the cabin, Rustic Sol, captures its essence. Modernised and comfortable, the cabin retains its rustic Tahoe charm and soul. And atop a rise and south facing, it basks in glorious 'sol' (sun). And yet there are many more outstanding features……..

The land to the north slopes gently down over conservancy and forest service lots providing privacy, forest views, and excellent tobogganing opportunities.

The 2 storey cabin has been renovated and appointed with a thoughtful combination of antique and modern furnishings to provide a comfortable stay while maintaining the rustic character. Some qualities include:
- Gas fireplace/stove for ambience and to protect the air quality in the Lake Tahoe basin.
- Triple pane windows for a draught free and warm stay.
- Central heating to ensure that every room, including the bathrooms, is comfortable.
- 46in LED Smart TV with access to internet apps such as YouTube, Pandora, etc; HD free to air TV stations; and a large library of movies and TV series.
- A chef's kitchen with granite counter tops and all new appliances
- New king and twin mattresses, bedding, and down comforters for a good nights sleep
- High speed internet, wifi and a telephone to stay connected.
- Access to Chamberlands private beach (beach ONLY, no pool or tennis access).

Rustic 'Sol' is the ideal mountain getaway regardless of whether it is outdoor adventure or relaxation that is on the agenda. The cabin is convenient to amazing skiing, hiking, mountain biking, and spectacular sandy beaches on the lake. In the summer, take the free shuttle to the beach, or in winter, call Homewood Mountain Resort for a free pickup.

Please note that the driveway is narrow and curves upwards to the house, hence, AWD or 4WD cars with tires suitable for snow are required in winter due to the likelihood of snow.

Quiet and peaceful

Amazing location in a nice neighborhood. Cute, and fully equipped cabin. Enjoyed our morning walks with coffee, and did several hikes using the “Best Hikes in Tahoe” book that was provided for guests. We really enjoyed our stay.

The size was what we wanted. The driveway was terrible. Washer and dryer were both full of wet sheets and towels. After we got everything done and under control we had a good stay.

We Had to Wash Our Own Bedding and Dishes…

While the house itself was decent and accommodating in terms of beds and baths, it was incredibly disappointing to have had to clean it ourselves before being able to settle in the first night. We had to wash the bed linens, then put the bedding together, as well as clean the dishes; as none of this had been done prior. We did receive a phone call prior to checking in the day of, stating that there had been a weather alert and they needed to take shelter (nothing actually became of it- it’s not Kansas), but it was specifically stated that we would simply need to, “put the beds together” as that had not been able to be completed. That was it…assemble the bedding. To our overwhelming dismay, that was NOT it. Incredibly disappointing to have traveled more than 8 hours on the road, only to arrive, and then need to do laundry and dishes before we could even go to bed. We paid the full fees, which included an amount for cleaning…we should get some money back!!! Decent house, decent location, but questionable cleanliness.

A very nice cabin to stay during the summer (we stayed the week after Labor Day). We liked the fact that all household items worked and having a washer and a dryer made things convenient. We liked the central location as we visited Truckee, Donner Lake, Incline Village, Emerald Bay, and Echo Lake. Very much recommended.

White Christmas!

I stayed here for 4 days, 3 nights right before christmas. We had 5 adults and one dog. Perfect for sledding right outside the cabin, kitchen condiments was well stocked, and lots of appliances, towels, and pans to use. Very warm with the nest and heater. I would definitely stay here again.

This cabin was so inviting and wonderful to come back to every day during our vacation at Lake Tahoe! Very peaceful! They had all the amenities there you would need. Nice big deck out back to relax after a day hiking or sightseeing. Great location too! We would definitely stay here again if we return to Lake Tahoe and would also recommend to others!

Family ski trip 3 generations!

This is the most beautiful and charming part of Tahoe. The proximately ro Homewood iand its own sledding hill ate great bonuses.. It is roomy, comfortable, and functional more than the number of square feet would suggest. It feels private and the neighborhood is great.

About the host

Hosted by Mike Eseltine and Ling Ng

Host profile image
We are a family of four living in Australia, but with Californian roots. This is our mountain getaway, which we hope to get back to at least once a year. In the meantime we hope you enjoy the cabin and mountain air as much as we do.

Why they chose this property

How many ways do we love the mountains?

We have hiked, backpacked, snowboarded, skied, camped, and soaked in hot tubs throughout the Sierra Nevada mountains.

We completed the John Muir Trail.

We got engaged at the top of Mt Whitney.

We named our daughter Sierra.

And now we have Rustic 'Sol' to continue to build and sustain mountain stories and memories.
