Perched among tall pines above Lake Tahoe, this multi-storey cabin is built around the kind of views you don't stop noticing. Soaring windows in the main living room frame the lake through the treeline, while the hot tub terrace below catches the last of the evening light. Indoors, the games room – shuffleboard, pool table, piano – gives the group somewhere to land after a day out, and the main bedroom's fireplace makes cooler nights feel cosy. Northstar ski resort is less than a fifteen-minute drive, and Kings Beach is nine minutes away.

Home truths
There is space for up to five vehicles on the driveway, so large groups arriving in multiple cars should be well covered. Bear in mind the driveway's steep gradient when manoeuvring.
There is no air conditioning here, so summer stays will rely on ceiling fans and natural ventilation. Pack accordingly if you're visiting during warmer months.

Local guide
About Tahoe Vista
On the border of California and Nevada, Lake Tahoe is one of the largest bodies of water in the US. As you'd expect, it's an area of astounding beauty, but the lake has also made a name for itself as a centre for both winter sports and water sports, as well as hiking and cycling. The north shore is a bit quieter and more relaxed than the south. While there's still plenty to do (including the annual food and wine festival), you're unlikely to see crowds like you do in other parts of the region.
