Lake, pool, and other amenities close by. Easy access to Tahoe City shops, restaurants, and grocery stores. Check out Sugar Pine Cakery and Cafe! Yummy cookies, drinks, and sandwiches within walking distance. Overall great stay!

The location definitely made this unit

The location definitely made this unit. The bakery nearby was delicious and a great price and we got to watch bears roam around on occasion. Kitchen was decently stocked and the bbq worked great.
The only qualms I have found were that the bunks ladder was especially unstable making the whole bed unstable but we just ended up not sleeping in it. The bikes were also unusable but that didn't bother us either. The internet did cut out multiple times but usually around 2-3 AM so we weren't that bothered.
Overall I would 100% stay here again.

Great place to stay

Great place to stay. A bit dark which would've been no issue on a normal summer weekend but we got an errant storm so we had to be inside for a bit.

Nice place

This was a very nice place to stay and we want to say thanks for everything.

The location is perfect!

The location is perfect! This is a perfect well kept budget place for your average stay, specially if you plan to be out most of the time, but it’s also comfortable and cozy when you come home from hikes or slopes to rest and hang out. The fireplace is a very nice add on! Very close to town, ski resorts and there’s a beach access within walking distance. My only complaint was the lack of wine glasses and I would suggest the hosts to leave a windshield scraper available for guests. Other than that, everything was perfect and I would definitely rent again!

Location

Tahoe City, California 96145, United States

Map loading...

Lake Forest Tahoe Retreat is in Tahoe City, California 96145. North shore base on the California side. Marina mornings, walkable lakefront, and the easiest line to Truckee, Palisades skiing, and the west shore drive past Emerald Bay. The first paddle of the morning belongs to people who arrive before ten.

Getting around

Our Lake Tahoe homes split between Tahoe City on the north shore in California and Zephyr Cove on the east shore in Nevada. Reno-Tahoe International (RNO) is the closest airport: about 50 minutes to Tahoe City via I-80, and just over an hour to Zephyr Cove via US-50. Truckee sits north of the lake, the historic gateway town with rail history and a strong morning coffee scene. SFO is roughly three and a half hours by car when you want a longer drive in.

Fall (Sep – Nov), 28–65°F. Aspens turn gold, the resort towns soften, and the evenings sharpen in a way that makes a fire feel earned.
