Beautiful property almost on the lake with private access. We had the cowboy romance room which is very spacious and comfortable. Great staff, breakfast delivered every morning to each cottage. Excellent deli and market right next to the property with amazing food and drinks. Restaurants nearby and tahoe city 5 min drive. All in all 10/10 property.
Wish it was pet friendly. That’s the only downside.
What a great find..felt like we were in the woods and wild and yet able to walk to fabulous places to eat, walk and play. The Inn is charming and inviting and serves a winner breakfast..delivered right to your cabin!! Doesn't get much better. Thank you for wonderful stay!!
Beautiful, well kept ground, clean room, cozy, and comfortable, tasty breakfast in bed served in environmentally friendly containers, short walk to a private beach.
Room was overall good. Wasnt loud at all considering we had neighbors on both sides. Bathroom was small but fine for the weekend. The water temperature and pressure was great. Bed was comfy. Maybe invest in more modern tv and channels. Other than that my only complaint would be the corners of the room have clearly never been vaccumed. But everything else was perfect. We appreciated the free breakfast, definitely better than other hotel breakfasts.
Gorgeous, immaculate property! One of a kind story book look. Room was very cool but VERY tight. Breakfast delivered to room was very good! Would stay again in larger room.
The room is clean and special. The property is close to palisades / alpine, convenient for skiing

The cottage inn was cozy and clean. Everything we needed was provided. The breakfast included each morning was fresh made and delicious. It’s in close proximity to the beach and several great restaurants. 16 min drive to skiing!

Love everything, specially the continental breakfast, no negative concerns. Thanks for your hospitality.
Classic “Old Tahoe” cottages with updated bathrooms, windows and electronics. Beautiful and updated Tahoe Park HOA beach steps away with play area, bathrooms, picnic tables with propane barbecues and dock. Several excellent and fun dining options within 5 minute walk.
