*Tahoe is a beautiful and fun place to visit, but occasionally this area can be affected by extreme weather events.  While we never want things like icy roads, road closures, or smoke from wildfires to negatively impact our guests, it can happen. We ask travelers to plan their vacation appropriately for the rural mountain climate and encourage guests to research all travel insurance options, as Tahoe Moon Properties cannot provide refunds for things outside of our control.  

Dog-Friendly - Mountain Cabin - Short Drive to the Beach - Mountain Views 

Great Escape was built with Tahoe charm in mind, with beautiful lofty knotty pine ceilings and gorgeous floor-to-ceiling windows to take in the Sierra beauty.   Escape the rat race and enjoy some rest and relaxation at this cozy cabin in a quiet neighborhood.  This cabin is conveniently located about 5-minutes from Tahoe City and about 10 minutes from Kings Beach.  It is just a short ride to some of the best skiing in Tahoe and is located close to some great scenic hiking.  When you enter the property, you are greeted with the kitchen and bar area which opens into a large living room and dining room.  The living room is set around a beautiful cozy fireplace with a  sofa couch in front of the floor-to-ceiling windows.  Downstairs is the half bathroom with the washer and dryer, which are conveniently located near the living area.  Taking the stairs to the second floor, you’ll find the two loft rooms, which overlook the great room and lake.  The lofted rooms do have a sloping ceiling, which may prove a little cramped for tall visitors.
Important, this property does not have air conditioning.  Air conditioners are extremely unusual in North Lake Tahoe.
The whole cabin is charming with lots of light.  One of the highlights of this Classic cabin is its unique glass architectural prow overlooking filtered lake views that enhance the mountain ambiance throughout the living area.  The property is in a nice quiet neighborhood between Dollar Point and Cedar Flat with access on the street Old County Road.  It is set back off the street to take advantage of the Tahoe ambiance and offers an escape from everything.
The beauty of this location in the winter months is that you are equal distance from Palisades Tahoe and Northstar for some world-class skiing and riding.  If you are not much of a downhill skiing enthusiast, you are near the Nordic Center for cross-country skiing and snowshoeing.  This property allows for the best of both worlds:  you have the serene and peaceful character of the cabin, coupled with a convenient location to enjoy the services of Tahoe City.
This is a dog-friendly house but in order to bring a dog, you must pay a $70 dog fee per dog, 2 dog maximum.  If you bring a dog without paying the dog fee, you will be subject to a fine and are in breach of contract which could result in being asked to leave the property.
