Featuring three comfortable queen beds and two full bathrooms—including one with a Victorian soaking tub—this cozy getaway is ideal for skiers, hikers, fishers, and anyone who loves stargazing in peaceful surroundings. Nestled near two renowned ski resorts, Heavenly Resort and Kirkwood, as well as the scenic South Lake Tahoe, this cabin offers easy access to year-round adventure. Markleeville is also home to the famous Grover Hot Springs and the legendary Death Ride cycling race held every July. Just minutes from the cabin, the East Fork Carson River provides incredible opportunities for fly fishing and rafting. From April to June, you can raft 21 miles down the Carson River, with a special treat at the halfway point—a natural hot spring right along the riverbank, perfect for a relaxing soak amid breathtaking scenery. For those who love scenic drives, Markleeville is the gateway to two of the most spectacular mountain routes in the Sierra Nevada: \-Highway 4 Ebbetts Pass, a stunning, winding alpine drive with breathtaking vistas, towering peaks, and peaceful meadows. \-Monitor Pass offers panoramic views and a unique high-elevation driving experience, especially stunning in the fall when the aspens turn golden. Whether you're into hiking, fishing, biking, rock climbing, skiing, rafting, or simply taking in the scenery, this location has something for you. The cabin itself is a warm and welcoming family home, fully equipped with everything you need for a comfortable and memorable stay. ## Property amenities ### Beach - Beach towels ### Ski - Cross-country skiing nearby - Snowboarding nearby ### Pool/Spa - Communal pool ### Internet - Available in the cabin: Free WiFi ### Parking and transportation - Parking on site ### Kitchen - Blender - Coffee grinder - Coffee/tea maker - Cookware, dishware, and utensils - Dishwasher - Electric kettle - Kitchen island - Microwave - Oven - Paper towels - Refrigerator - Spices - Stovetop - Toaster ### Dining - Dining table ### Bedrooms - 3 bedrooms - Bedsheets provided ### Bathroom - 2 bathrooms - Bathtub or shower - Hair dryer - Shampoo - Shower - Soap - Toilet paper - Towels provided ### Living spaces - Dining table - Fireplace - Living room - Separate dining area ### Entertainment - Books - Games - Smart TV - Stereo ### Outdoor areas - Barbecue grill - Outdoor furniture - Patio ### Laundry - Laundry facilities - Washing machine ### Comfort - Air conditioning - Heating ### Pets - No pets allowed ### Suitability/Accessibility - If you have requests for specific accessibility needs, please contact the property using the information on the reservation confirmation received after booking. - Front entrance ramp - Handrails in stairways - Hardwood flooring in public areas - No elevator - Smooth flooring in public areas - Thin carpet in public areas - Well-lit path to entrance - Smoking not allowed ### Services and conveniences - Change of bedsheets (on request) - Change of towels on request - Housekeeping (on request) - Iron/ironing board ### Location highlights - In a rural location - In a village - In the city center - In the mountains - Near a health/beauty spa - On a river ### Things to do - Bicycle parking - Bicycle storage - Outdoor pickleball court - Snow sports gear - Tennis - Birdwatching nearby - Fishing nearby - Hiking/biking trails nearby - Horseback riding nearby - Hunting nearby - Ice skating nearby - Jet skiing nearby - Kayaking nearby - Mountain biking nearby - Mountain climbing nearby - Rafting nearby - Rock climbing nearby - Sledding nearby - Snowmobiling nearby - Swimming nearby - Water skiing nearby - Wildlife walks nearby - Windsurfing nearby ### Safety features - Carbon monoxide detector (host has indicated there is a carbon monoxide detector on the property) - Smoke detector (host has indicated there is a smoke detector on the property) - First aid kit - Fire extinguisher - Deadbolt lock ### General - At least 80% lighting from LEDs - Bed sheets changed on request - Bicycle parking - Bicycle storage - Double-glazed windows - Eco-friendly cleaning products used - Eco-friendly toiletries - Energy-saving switches in guestrooms - Housekeeping (on request) - Local artist showcase - Local culture and ecosystem education - Locally-owned and organized tours and activities - Recycling - Towels (changed on request) - Unit size: 1,728 square feet - Water-efficient showers - Water-efficient toilets ## Similar properties ![Interior](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/35000000/34330000/34322200/34322150/w1799h1201x1y1-c4acd65b.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### Perfect Family Getaway With A/C - Location!
