Nestled in among the wooded streets of Tahoma, this charming home blends classic cabin vibes and modern comforts. Inside, everything is smart and new but it's far from lacking in character. Think beamed ceilings, a cosy gas stove and sloping ceilings upstairs. Good size bedrooms and sociable, open-plan living space, along with a deck and a garden mean this place is perfect for a family or a group of friends. The host has thought of everything, with plenty of storage space for your hiking kit by the door and an array of fun board games. Just minutes away, the lake offers all sorts of activities during the summer – or visit in winter for some excellent local skiing at Homewood or Squaw Alpine Ski Resorts.
