About this property

Serene Lakes - Wonderful Waterfront Family Escape

Beacon Lake House has been remodeled with upgrades throughout the home. It is situated on the east shore of Serene Lakes getting the full benefit of the warm afternoon sun. Excellent lake access with its own sandy beach with a canoe and 3 paddleboards available. Expansive, open floor plan in the living room, kitchen, reading loft, and dining room gives you great views out to the lake. Downstairs TV room allows for quiet upstairs. A great winter ski home too, with its nice light and warmth, and proximity to Royal Gorge and Sugar Bowl. Pet Friendly (1 dog only). This is a beloved family home; we come as often as we can and take great care of the place. We welcome renters who appreciate that and welcome a number of repeat renters year after year. We rented through an agency for many years (and before that were renters ourselves for many years), and are still new to VRBO. We welcome your inquiries.

About the host

Hosted by Ann

Host profile image
We are a Bay Area family with three daughters who have grown up going to Serene Lakes. We love the beauty of every season as well as the community around the lake. We are glad to be able to rent to families and other small groups who feel the same way!

Why they chose this property

Serene Lakes is a great community, off the main paths of the Tahoe region but full of great hiking, mountain biking, water play (the kind without motors), and terrific neighbors who all look out for each other.

What makes this property unique

Our place is not huge but we have a fully-equipped and spacious kitchen, lots of cozy rooms for guests, a comfortable open common area looking out on the lake, and a large deck for sitting in the sun. There is a TV room on the ground floor, with a couple of armchairs and 2 big beanbag chairs. This leaves the main floor for games, puzzles, reading, and socializing. The best view might be from the little reading loft at the top of the house. In the summer there's a lovely little beach at the end of a short path, where you can take a couple of paddle boards out, push off with a canoe, or have an evening cocktail hour. Get the right people together and it's hard to go too wrong.
