Awesome spot!

The house and the location was beautiful! Located right outside of town so you get to miss all of the traffic but can grab great food whenever you’re ready. An excellent stay!

Great stay in the snow!

What a wonderful place to stay cozy during this extra snowy season. We played games, watched movies, and cooked great food in a well-appointed kitchen, enjoying the beautiful snow-views. Thank you again.

My daughter and I stayed here for a long weekend getaway while attending a concert. The cabin’s location was perfect for exploring South Lake Tahoe while also being secluded enough to enjoy the beauty of its natural surroundings. Check in was a breeze and the cabin was meticulously clean- which we appreciated. Beautifully decorated throughout, gorgeous bathrooms and all the kitchen amenities you could need. There are 3 TVs and a large assortment of movies for entertainment as well as Roku for online access to your own services. Great WiFi connectivity. There is a wall air conditioner that quickly cooled the main rooms and lots of fans, if needed. With the sliding door and windows open in the evening, the whole place cools down nicely for sleep. Would highly recommend!

Amazing spot at the summit

Our family had a great stay. The cabin is well appointed and located within about 10-15 min from Sierra at Tahoe. There is plenty of space for little ones to play in the snow in the backyard and the hot tub is a great plus. I particularly appreciate the effort to make this stay kid friendly (toys/games, bunk bed, covers on outlets, etc.) The welcome book describes all of the work the owners put into the cabin and is quite impressive. We will certainly be back!

AWESOME Cabin!

While this is booked as Echo Summit "Cabin" it is definitely more of a house! So much room, elegantly laid out, attention to detail is obvious, and the host was terrific. Check-in and check-out process were easy, there was a book in the kitchen that explained both - as well as all the local "to-do's" and places to visit, which was very helpful! Great hiking trails within minutes (check out Lower Echo Lake - unbelievably beautiful. Short scenic drive to South Lake Tahoe, little shops and diners are very close by as well. Would 100% stay here, the place was beautiful and the owner Megan was fantastic!

Let it snow!

Took my daughters to Tahoe for a ski weekend and stay at this beautiful property. It is exactly as described and exceeded expectations. We ran into some severe weather and both communication and support from the property manager and owner was appreciated. Would love to come back in the future.

5 star hotel treatment

The property is pristine. The floor plan is really practical. The master suite feels luxurious. Quiet and nice backyard. My only suggestion would be to replace the foam mattress in the 2nd room which was not as comfortable as the other beds.

Very cute cabin close to Sierra

Came to this cute little cabin for a weekend with the family. Megan was great at communicating with us and trying to keep the property usable during a big storm. The house is really cute and nicely updated. I love that the welcome binder included before and after pics to show how much work they've put into their place. The location is great, literally minutes from Sierra at Tahoe! The house had all of the essentials and was nice and tidy when we arrived. Thank you Burtons for sharing your home with us! ❤️

Beautiful Stay

This cabin was amazing. The decor was a modern cabin chic that blew my mind. There are Before and After photos of the remodel in the guest binder. You can tell it was a remodel that was done with a lot of care and thought. We loved the floor plan, the artwork, the furnishings, the fixtures, the appliances, the hot tub and the setting. I also appreciated the binder that the property owners made with instructions, expectations and ideas in it. We used the grill nearly every night. It was clean and worked perfectly. The long dining table gave us a lot of room to work on projects, play games and set up our laptops. There were some very nice touches… linens, bath mats, baggies. In the property description, the owners make it very clear that the cabin is on the highway, which makes it easy to get to and from, but the sound of vehicles never lets you completely forget that civilization is just down the road…which did not bother me at all. It was a magical stay. I will do it again.

Why they chose this property

Located on Echo Summit, this area is known for its larger, more open properties surrounded by meadow and forest rather than dense neighborhoods.

The cabin is set right along Highway 50, offering quick and reliable access in all seasons—especially valuable in winter—while still feeling connected to nature with forest and open land on three sides.

The American River headwaters run through the property, and at 7,100 ft elevation, you’ll enjoy cooler summer temps and some of the best snowfall in the area. Plus, you’re just 1 mile from Sierra-at-Tahoe for easy ski days.

What makes this property unique

What makes this cabin special is its rare combination of accessibility and true mountain setting. Located directly on Echo Summit, you get easy, reliable access year-round while still being surrounded by open meadow and forest on three sides—something you won’t find in more crowded Tahoe neighborhoods.

The headwaters of the American River run through the property, creating a uniquely peaceful, natural backdrop. At 7,100 ft elevation, the cabin enjoys cooler summer temperatures and significantly more snowfall in winter—plus you’re just 1 mile from Sierra-at-Tahoe for incredibly easy ski days. It’s the kind of place that feels both convenient and completely removed at the same time.
