It's located in a truly private spectacular setting with our backyard bordering The Tahoe National Forest. Our pictures of the cabin and surrounding property and forest acreage don't do it justice. The 'Tahoe Bear Cabin' offers tumbled marble in the bathrooms, slab granite, and maple cabinets throughout, state-of-the-art stainless appliances, four televisions, four of which are high definition (60-inch and 42-inch), satellite TV, home theater surround-sound, a grand copper wood burning fireplace, beautiful gas fireplaces in upper and lower bedrooms, central heat, and hardwood floors. Several decks make for wonderful outside entertaining, as does the Jacuzzi hot tub, which offers total privacy. Bose speakers complement the Jacuzzi and decks. Approximately 2600 square feet, this unique and elegant three-bedroom, three-bath, incredible Tri Level Cabin promises to make your stay in Tahoe unforgettable. Come for the Weekend and make memories that will last a Lifetime. Make no mistake, this cabin will truly bring the Lake Tahoe experience to life. Surrounded by acres of conservancy land with The Tahoe National Forest and only two long blocks from the lake lies our Tahoe Bear Cabin, offering both privacy and convenience. For the security of our guests and the safety of our home, there are external security cameras located on our deck, the exterior doors into the house, and the parking lot area. One of the greatest features is the opportunity to watch neighborhood bears, but they can be little rascals if there are no guests at the property. We monitor the outside to ensure everything is safe for our authorized guests. There are no surveillance cameras inside the house. Located just minutes from Squaw Valley and Alpine Meadows ski resorts, and only 10 minutes from the Coast Guard boat launch at Lake Forest Road, our Tahoe Bear Cabin will allow you to experience Tahoe to its fullest - access to the Tahoe Rim trail, snowmobiling, cross country skiing at Paige Meadow, sledding on our private road or at Granlibakken Resort, quad & ATV, and hiking are conveniently located right out our back door.

This cabin was perfect for our long weekend and gave everyone plenty of separate space while providing sizeable common areas where we could be together. The deck, especially, was outstanding and allowed us to enjoy each other's company and the loveliness of Tahoe at the same time. The home was clean and well-appointed, and our host was available to answer questions whenever needed. The location was also ideal; it was close to hiking and the lake. The next time we are in the Tahoe area, we will definitely book this lovely cabin in the woods again. ##### Dustin W. Stayed 3 nights in Sep 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Julia K.

Plenty of towels. Our group was overwhelmed by the amount of clutter (decorations) throughout the home. Removing at least half of it would make the space more livable, more welcoming and be much easier to clean. ##### Nancy P. Stayed 4 nights in Jul 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### LAURIE H.

Adjacent woods have enough clearing for nice walks. Deck is huge. The larger beds are all fantastic. As of early 2024, the two smaller beds were shorter than twin size (but still manageable for shorter occupants), and the sofa pullout in lowest-level room near fireplace needed "mattress" replaced (20-year-old slept in living room instead). ##### LAURIE H.

The kitchen was decked out with awesome appliances, spices, cookware and all that you would need. The bathrooms are very modern and nice as well. The property is situated in a way that allows for privacy in the neighborhood, and the snowbanks helped that as well! There was a tremendous amount of snow but Cheryl made a point to call us ahead of our check-in and help with directions if needed, as the street signs were all buried under the snow! We had a bit of confusion with regard to wi-fi directions, but again Cheryl was very responsive and we got this resolved. Hopefully the check-in instructions regarding this part can be made a little more clear for future guests. We would definitely book this property again - so close to Alpine and Palisades, which was the main reason for our trip! ##### Joey H. Stayed 3 nights in Apr 2023 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Tiffany T. Aug 6, 2018 #### Memorable rustic relaxation with the comforts of home Bear Cabin was a dream! We had 10 people that met there to celebrate a milestone birthday and it far exceeded our expectations for the rustic, but lush getaway cabin in the woods. The house itself was quaint, but spacious. Everywhere you turned was a cute detail you hadn't noticed before. The accommodations were very comfortable. We were able to spread out without everyone being on top of each other. There were several different outdoor locations and living spaces inside that afforded us the opportunity to congregate in several places. The kitchen was well equipped with everything we could need. The available storage had me shocked and jealous. The kitchen offered itself to wonderful open conversation and a great space to prepare and enjoy a large family style meal. And three full bathrooms were amazing for a large group. Every square inch was used to it's best capacity. The attention to detail across the board was a high point, for sure. But what we enjoyed the most was the outdoor space. As you drive through the area, you notice that properties around Lake Tahoe, and Tahoe City specifically, are mostly right on top of each other. Not Bear Cabin. The house sits back on a large parcel of land and while you could see neighbors in the distance from the front of the house, the majority of the living space is secluded and private. The grounds are beautifully landscaped and impeccably maintained. The deck surrounding the house is massive. There were at least 5 separate sitting areas outside, including the wonderful fire pit and hot tub. Indoor lighting had dimmers. Outdoor lighting was ample. Seating was abundant. The only downside to our stay was we never quite figured out the outdoor speakers. One suggestion I would make would be to have a master house binder or notebook for guests that includes all of the house instructions, guidelines, rules, wifi and nearby attractions, such as trails or local hangouts. Cheryl was available and offered a great deal of guidance. Thank you Cheryl and your family for sharing your lovely home! Your hospitality and warm regard made it so special. It was the perfect base for our dream Tahoe vacation. ##### Tiffany T. Stayed 4 nights in Jul 2018 ### 6/10 Okay #### Julia D. Jan 31, 2025 Liked: Check-in, location #### Great Location Very Cute Home and Lots of "Tahoe" Decor. Property was clean and very comfortable. Not a lot of counter space though due to the excessive decor. After paying top dollar for this place, I wasn't aware that we weren't supposed to sleep in some of the beds. Whaaaa? Kinda weird. Cheryl is a lovely person but kept calling all weekend to see how we were doing and instructing me on how to use the hot tub because all the jets were not working properly. Tub drained and I found myself crawling under the deck outside, in snow, to turn on the water, then waiting for the water to heat up. Light switches everywhere and hard to find, Tv also way too much of a struggle. I have rented homes in Tahoe for the past 25 years, and this, was definitely an odd experience. We left the place clean and on time, key in lock box. ##### Julia D.

You can tell you are renting someone’s personal vacation home instead of the usually business operated rental, but the cabin was very comfortable! My only complaint was the internet was so slow it’s mostly not usable. I think that would be an easy fix for the property owner. Sadly, some travelers still have to remain connected for family and work reasons. But we loved it and would go back again! ##### Eric M.

This is our second time at Cheryl’s wonderful cabin and it certainly won’t be our last! The cabin is just a perfect retreat for us, I always feel the stress melt off once we open the door! VERY well apportioned kitchen, comfortable beds, amazing family room, and outside is like your own private forest. Cheryl was incredibly communicative and very accessible if we ever needed anything. I seriously cannot think of anything negative to say about the property or communication. We want to make this our family tradition at least once a year. THANK YOU, Cheryl for every! ##### Janis S.

A couple of issues with access to the property. After we reserved and paid, we found this was no longer listed with VRBO. One of our party dropped out due to this because she sensed something was wrong. When we arrived we followed the instructions on how to get inside, but they were all incorrect. We called the property manager who was listed in the VRBO communications who said she has not been managing this property for a long time. She said she has requested the owner correct the error, but hasn’t gotten anywhere. She did give us the owners name and number. Luckily, we reached her and was able to access the house, but this took about 45 min to figure all this out which was pretty stressful. There were several issues with the house, the most annoying being poor to no internet which made me feel there was something buggy going on. ##### sandra g. Stayed 5 nights in Jul 2022 ### 2/10 Terrible #### hillary z. Jul 26, 2022 Disliked: Cleanliness, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Worst rental experience Beware of staying here. On the whole, the house is nice, but our group has had a terrible time dealing with the host before and after our stay and the house is not worth the aggravation that comes with renting this property. In terms of the house: The house isn’t located in town as the listing suggests - it’s a 10 minute drive/40 minute walk away. We tried to cancel our booking when it came to our attention that the location was misrepresented but we were told 'we should have googled that the property is where it said it was on the listing.' The third “bedroom” is actually a basement, so it offers no privacy. There are cameras watching you. The house is full of items that people have left there over the years - half eaten condiments, used toiletries - creating a lot of clutter and requiring a good clean. Regarding the host: The host is unhelpful and unresponsive. Prior to our rental it would take days or sometimes more than a week for her to respond to us. She's listed the house as sleeping 10 - though it will comfortably sleep 12! - but if you add any more than 4 guests, the cost goes up astronomically. There are cameras outside (and maybe inside?) the house that she doesn’t disclose, which is a huge violation of privacy. We are a group of 30-year-old+ accountants and other business professionals with an affinity for travelling - between us we've stayed in dozens of vacation rental home stays and none of us have experienced a host like Cheryl. Following our stay she was swift in notifying us that she had "proof" - likely the aforementioned cameras for monitoring guests - that we had additional guests at the property (we admit we had some friends over, but they did not stay the night). She has tried to charge us for additional overnight guests (that did not exist) and has said we damaged the property despite the house being left in the same condition as when we arrived. Cheryl's property is beautiful, but her actions have been vindictive in nature and we encourage anyone to find accommodations elsewhere in Tahoe. ##### hillary z. Stayed 4 nights in Jul 2022 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Bob P. Jul 25, 2022 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Simply Amazing! The Bear Cabin! This cabin is everything in the listing, AND MORE! When first driving up to the property, one can't miss the beautiful neighborhood and forest. Then walking around the cabin, on the outside, its unique decks and entrances are simply stunning. Then enter... absolutely beautiful. The family room is very large and was where we found ourselves every night watching a movie or talking about our day. The bedrooms, the kitchen, the dining room, everything about this cabin is what you dream of when visiting Tahoe!! We spent hours walking around the cabin and looking at all the items, art, lights, everything that the family has collected over the years and shared with everyone. And if the cabin wasn't awesome enough, Cheryl (the owner) was the most wonderful person to work with. We shared stories and photos from our stay, as she shared history and stories as well. Whenever we had a question, she was quick to reply or call with help. She truly made the trip so much more enjoyable and comfortable. Simply put, when our family visits Tahoe again, this is where we will stay!! Thank you Cheryl for EVERYTHING and sharing your stories and beautiful cabin with us!!! ##### Bob P.
