We were lucky enough to stay at the cabin over the July 4th week. The owners went out of their way to make sure we had every thing we would need to make it a great stay. This Cabin has everything! Beach chairs, cooler, 2 beach cruiser bikes, etc.. My kids loved playing the mini pool table. They also have a firepit and ping pong table outside. You can walk to the lake in 5 minutes or less. The neighborhood was very quiet. We were surprised because of its proximity to shops, lake, busy roads. We would definitely stay here again.

Wonderful Family Cabin

This was the first family trip in a while and I wanted to make it memorable, totally made the right choice by going with the Knotty-Pine Cabin. The location was very convenient (to Lake Tahoe, Safeway, Casinos, hiking trails, etc.) The amazing MacDuffs pub is within walking distance as well!
Frank was helpful and easy to communicate with, there was no problem booking.
We went swimming in the lake, went on bicycle rides, BBQ, Shakespeare play, had a blast in Tahoe and was always happy to return to the cabin after a long day of fun.
The only suggestion is to fix the shower head and the squeaking noise from the stairs.
Other than that great cozy cabin and perfect for families less than eight :)
Thank you Frank!

The owners were super wonderful and helpful with information on how they hold parties at the home. We followed there guide and had a very wonderful rehearsal dinner party with 40 people. Everyone had a fabulous time.
We will definitely re-rent this home again.

The best 3 days in Tahoe

A little late as we stayed here last winter, but while looking into booking for this winter I wanted to write a review.
I would 1st off like to thank Frank & Laurie thank you for the wonderful experience we had while staying in your beautiful Tahoe Cabin. My kids and family enjoyed the comfort of your rental they said it felt just like home, as that is what we were all looking for when trying to choose our vacation rental. And this was exactly what we had in mind. It took us a while to actually find the place to stay but now that we have found it and love the location and just everything about your rental. We won’t have to ever look further, we have found our Tahoe Vacation rental from now on.
The snow was so beautiful. We took the kids to the Tube ridding place by Heavenly and one day we went to a hill and sled all day. Then all came home to warm showers and BBq’d a nice dinner with the family.
There is No other name then “Best Tahoe Cabin” that can describe this place better. What a great choice you made when choosing this name.
Thanks Again

My boyfriend and I stayed at the Knotty-Pine Cabin this summer and had a wonderful time. It was a bike ride away from state line, restaurants, lakeside views, and a short drive from beaches, hiking, mountain biking, and kayaking. When we arrived, we were greeted by an immaculate cabin complete with the comforts of home--large kitchen, BBQ, entertainment system, porch to lounge on, wifi, etc. The interior has been tastefully decorated by the owners who obviously take a lot of pride in maintaining the cabin and making it homey and comfortable to stay in. The entire time we were there we talked about how we want to come back and bring our friends. It would be perfect for 3 couples or a couple small families. We felt luxurious having the whole place to ourselves! My boyfriend accidently left his suit in one of the closets and Frank and Laurie were so sweet about getting it back to us. We really appreciated the extra effort they made to make our stay as enjoyable as possible. I highly recommend the cabin!

My family and I stayed at this property for 4 nights this summer. This is the 1st time we have rented a place up in Tahoe, and we were very fortunate to have discovered this lovely home. Everything we could have possibly needed and all the comforts of home. Would highly recommend this place to anyone (and already have to several). We would stay there again when opportunities arise. Thanks Laurie and Frank. You have a wonderful place in Tahoe.

We just spent the weekend at this wonderful cabin to celebrate my daughter's 27th Birthday (5 adults).
I considered not writing a review, and selfishly keeping this gem to myself, but this didn't seem fair to Frank after Laurie after experiencing how much effort they have put into making this a cozy, charming place to stay. The cabin was spotless and fresh smelling upon arrival, and feels very roomy with lots of different areas to hangout...kitchen fantastic & well stocked for someone like me who enjoys cooking on these types of vacations. Lots of design touches such as candle lights, woodsy themed dishes, and the wonderful bear statue are evident throughout. The bathroom situation was no problem with the endless hot tank, and the 1/2 bath upstairs...pleny of nice big towels provided. The area is delightful for just for walking around and checking out the restored "Vintage Tahoe" cabins. Safeway & Starbuck's about a 5 minute walk away with back trails so you never have to hit the hwy. We haven't been home 24 hours yet and are already coordinating to book another getaway. Great pictures on this site, but they can't begin to convey the great vibe of this place!!! Thanks so much! Our family couldn't have asked for a better weekend. P.S. There is a very sweet dog named Tule living across the street who may wander over for the occasional belly rub! Another bonus in my opinion!!! Brian & Alison, Sacramento CA

Owners response: We are happy to hear that you experienced the beauty of endless hot showers for everyone! The hidden neighborhood does have that great feeling of the way Tahoe should be, with all of the Vintage Cabins. Please do come back to celebrate the next family birthday.

the 5 of us enjoyed a perfect week in your lovely cabin. The cabin had all amenities that we needed and more! The location was perfect for neighborhood walks and it was so close for walks to Timber Cove Marina on the beach. It was quiet and the beds were very comfortable. For the 5 of us the 1 1/2 bath worked out okay but if there were more we might have wanted another bathroom. The only thing that I found missing was a bathtub but other than that it was perfect. Thank you again for a very enjoyable week!

We had such a wonderful time in your Tahoe cabin. What a cozy place. It has obviously had many happy people come through, because they have all left a little of that joy behind. We left some too. Thank you so much for creating such a loving envorment that met all of our needs and more. We will be back!

We had a great stay at this cabin. It was cozy and comfortably accommodated two families. We were impressed with the condition of the cabin and appreciated access to the garage and ping pong table. We all had a great time and loved the location. I would definately recommend this property to others. Frank and Laurie were very nice and great to work with. Hope to visit again.

This cabin is cozy and warm. Upon arrival the cabin was clean and inviting.
We had 3 adults and 4 kids and still had room for a few more :-)
The location was awesome. Close to Safeway, CVS, Heavenly and other snow parks. Our family will definitely visit again and again. Thank you for all the extra things you provided to make us feel at home.

What a cozy and charming cabin where 3 generations of our family spent some memorable days. Our 2 1/2 year old built her first snowman in the backyard. The kitchen was well equipped for our New Year's feast. We sadly ended our stay early, but have many fond memories of the cabin.

Sadly it is the end of our trip, but it ends on a happy note because we found the Best Tahoe Cabin. We have had such a wonderful time here. Swimming, walking, beachcombing, eating and relaxing by the lake. The cabin is so cozy and cute. Everywhere you look, you find another moose, elk or bear, and the upstairs is wonderful and welcoming. Thank you so much.
