Our cozy creekside condo in Tahoe
Our Pick

Stay at Our Creekside Condo

We keep a cozy creekside condo in the heart of Tahoe — the same one featured on our home page. It sleeps a family or small group, sits steps from the water and the trails, and is the kind of low-key home base this whole site is built around.

It's rated ★★★★★ 4.97 on airbnb and 10/10 on VRBO.

Book early, and know the seasons: Summer weekends, holidays and powder weekends sell out and spike in price. Spring and late fall are the quiet, affordable windows. If you're driving in winter, confirm whether your stay has covered parking and whether chains may be required on the pass.
