What a beautiful home and well kept property! Our granddaughter turned 13 and she spent a lot of time on the rope swing and playing pool. The home was just comfortable to be in! We kept the card and everyone was excited to stay there again sometime. Thank you for the hospitality!

Great Cabin

We enjoyed our stay at Alexander's cabin. The house and the property were very nice and clean, there was plenty of room, and the place was well stocked with the essentials. A short drive to the lake made for a great trip. Will definitely consider staying here again if we are in the area.

Our family was simply amazed at this beautiful cabin….There was everything and more when it comes to amenities as well as how new and clean this home is. Practically brand new cabin in a very beautiful but serene location. We will come back and this cabin home is a great value for what we paid! Super clean and spacious cabin!

This home is a 10/10 for sure! The large, beautiful home in a spectacular location would be enough for praise but the amenities are too good to believe. The game room, the pool table, the stocked kitchen, the real wood fireplace, the rope swings, sleds, kayaks, every appliance you might need, a medicine cabinet that has every first aid item imaginable, and 3 great bedrooms plus sofa beds. And somehow the setting is perfectly remote while being only 5 minutes from the lake. We're already planning our next visit.

We get our family together every year, and this year it was in wonderful Pollock Pines. The check-in process was very easy and the house fit everyone well. The tire swing in the back was a big hit with kids and adults alike!

Beautiful property. Well maintained. Had everything we needed. Tons of activities to do on site including games, hiking, lake access, rope swing, rock climbing wall, and more. Close proximity to grocery store and day trip to South Lake Tahoe is a must. My family can’t wait to return!

New Year’s Stay

Brought in the new year with family at this beautiful house! We had such a good time relaxing in front of the fire, making meals in the big kitchen, and shooting some pool. Alex was also great, showing us around the house and answering any questions. This is a spot we will definitely return to!

Our entire family enjoyed the swing together, seeing who could swing the highest, sitting on the deck, bbqing, laughing playing games in game room and the pool table brought back so many fun memories! We felt at home! We want to come back next summer!

What a wonderful stay!

We had planned on using the house as home base for outdoor activities for 4 adults and 2 teens, but the weather had something else in mind. We experienced rain during much of our visit and had to hole up in the house. However, the fireplace, TV area on the second floor made it a wonderful place to hang out. Highly recommend!
