About this property

Camp Cedar Crest ~ a Luxury Compound Reminiscent of Old Tahoe

JUST A FEW WALKING BLOCKS TO THE EXCLUSIVE LAKEFRONT PARK!

Built in 1947 and completely renovated, this 3-bedroom, 2-bath 'camp' offers all the vintage charm of a rustic 'Old Tahoe' cabin, and the comforts of a new home. With an open-beamed Great Room, Old Hickory furniture, and antique Navajo and Zapotec rugs, Camp Cedar Crest harkens back to the character full old camps of the Adirondacks.

Situated on a large property in Tahoe Park, on Lake Tahoe's desirable West Shore, Camp Cedar Crest offers generous outdoor entertaining areas. Enjoy the outdoor hot tub and spend the evening around the fire pit. Play a challenging game of croquet with your kids on the lawn.

Walk five minutes to the private 3-acre lakefront Tahoe Park, adjacent to the Sunnyside Resort, and enjoy the beach, deep water piers, beautiful lawns, and picnic facilities. Rent bikes or stand-up paddle boards nearby. Take a sunset waterski run from the Sunnyside.

In winter, you're just minutes to Squaw, Alpine Meadows, and Homewood Resort.

Camp Cedar Crest, a refuge from the routine!

Great Lodge with a very welcoming atmosphere. Absolutely loved it.

Fully equipped with everything you could possibly want for an excellent stay. The large fireplace was were we spent most of our evenings chatting and playing games (plenty to choose from the kitchen cupboard) Excellent location. North Shore Deli and Fireside cafe within a mins walk away. Both serve delicious food. Skied Squaw Valley, Alpine Meadow and North Star resorts which were very close by. Absolutely loved our stay and would love to return maybe in the summer.

Amazing house and communicative host

We always stay on the west shore in both the summer and winter. This is by far the best house we have stayed at. Super tastefully decorated, close to everything and the topper was it has a garage so our car was not buried in snow in the mornings :)

Nostalgic Tahoe

What a great place for our family ski vacation. The home has old school Tahoe charm, is well appointed and thoughtfully decorated. The spa was clean and especially appreciated after long ski days! Great location close to Sunnyside Resort and about 25 min to Palisades. Russ was very easy to communicate with answered all our questions promptly. We will definitely come back. Thanks Russ!

Everything you want in a cabin!

This place was amazing! It is rustic, but updated with all the modern necessities, and clear that the owners both: a) take great pride in their cabin, and b) have a TON of style! Great kitchen, wildly comfy beds, hot tub, the works! And then there is the living room... the comfiest, coziest room with the most amazing fireplace I've ever seen! We really loved our time and hope to stay again! Thank you!

As others have said, the photos don’t even do this property justice. Just a beautiful place with lots of luxuries: soaking tub, hot tub, great beds and a real wood burning fireplace! It was exceptionally clean as well. This will be our go to whenever we visit Tahoe.

Beautiful Cabin

Everyone in our group had a great time. The property and house is really beautiful, recently renovated but maintained the classic rustic look. The kitchen was well stocked and equipped compared to other rental properties I have stayed at. Easy to cook for our whole group. Drive to Palisades was easy and only took 20 min. Excellent private hot tub to rest the legs after. Only thing to note is the bunk bed is a bit cozy getting in and out... just plan to put your most limber person up top. Great cabin, would definitely stay again!

Home away from home!!

Absolutely loved my stay at this cozy Tahoe cabin! From the moment I walked in, I was greeted with warmth and comfort. The cabin’s rustic charm combined with modern amenities created the perfect retreat. And I thoroughly enjoyed the Alaskan Cedar hot tub!! That was so wonderful after a day on the lake! The home was impeccably clean, well-equipped, and conveniently located. It was an unforgettable experience- I can’t wait to return!

Absolutely beautiful place

The pictures and description don’t come close to representing the true beauty of this gem! The outdoor seating area with fire pit is so relaxing and inviting! The cabin is very well appointed with new appliances & cozy comfy couches. The beds were like sleeping on clouds! 10/10 seems under stated for this place. The private beach association is only a few minutes walk & even in mid summer places to setup for a day at the beach were plentiful. A true Tahoe experience!

Perfect Tahoe stay

Very clean. Thoughtfully equipped with everything you want and need. Beach club access is great. A wonderful few days in the pines. Only minor issue is that the main bedroom bed is quite high and, while very comfortable, is a bit hard to get into with mobility issues. 100% would stay again.

If you are considering this property, you should book it. It is as advertised and more.

The cabin is beautiful and cozy while providing plenty of space. The beds are comfortable, we all slept well, and the kitchen was great for cooking. It is within walking distance of a small grocery store and some great local restaurants. We had a fantastic stay.

The Haley and Barbata families are honored to share our vacation retreat with you.

Why they chose this property

Tahoe Park is so central to Tahoe's attractions. And we love the fact that we are a short walk to the Lake Tahoe Park Association for evening BBQ's or hanging out on the beach. And we are just a quick walk away from the Firesign and infamous Sunnyside Restaurant.

What makes this property unique

In the winter, we are conveniently nestled between Squaw, Alpine Meadows, and Homewood. Whether you drive or take the shuttle, you can be on the slopes in minutes!
