There are holiday cabins and then there is this holiday cabin. Stay in the cutest gingerbread cabin in the Kings Beach area in north Lake Tahoe. You’ll be close to Truckee and a short drive from Olympic Valley. This cottage in Northern California is what holiday vacation dreams are made of!
Nestled in a cute neighborhood in a prime location, you’ll be a 10-minute walk from Kings Beach. The cabin is also a short walk from many cafes and restaurants, including Java Hut, Jason’s Beachside Grill, Fat Cat Kitchen, Hiro Sushi, and many other restaurants.
Spend the day hiking on nearby trails, then take a snowmobile tour. After dinner on N. Lake Boulevard, walk around and explore the art galleries and boutiques.
The eat-in kitchen has plenty of space to cook your favorite holiday meals. There is also a fireplace in the kitchen so guests can keep warm wherever they go inside the home.
The cabin has all the amenities and conveniences you’d want for a winter stay, including a washer and dryer, 2 spacious bathrooms, and free WiFi. Outside on the patio, you can use the barbecue grill or relax by the fire.
The second-story patio overlooking the backyard is a great place to enjoy a cup of coffee in the morning. There are a lot of places to sit in the backyard, too. The fenced yard is perfect for guests wanting some privacy, or for pets to roam around. A small shed has life jackets and beach chairs. The owners also loan bikes and a kayak to renters.
The cottage sleeps four adults and one child under the age of 12. Sleep under the 20-foot teepee ceiling in the octagon primary suite. The bedroom has a queen bed and a twin bed.
You could easily imagine that you’re at the North Pole while trekking through snow-covered forests and then relaxing by the fireplace with hot cocoa in your gingerbread cabin. Too cute!
