There's nothing more refreshing and quintessential Tahoe than a cozy getaway in an A-frame cabin. Whether you're traveling in summer or winter, this four bedrooms and two and a half bathroom that sleeps eight is a rare find and meets the mark on all things alpine.

Situated on a quiet cul-de-sac, backed up to Bear Creek, this secluded three-level A-frame offers an open floor plan for the living, dining, and kitchen area. Start your morning on the sprawling deck, gazing out at forest service land will provide you with a tranquil place to start your day. If you are looking to get out and explore, you are a short walk from the Five Lakes trailhead and just one mile from Alpine Meadows Ski Resort. In the evenings fire up the woodstove, and enjoy gathering in the first-floor great room. The tranquility, charm, and unique style certainly make for a great Tahoe getaway location.

The expansive floor to ceiling windows, its long farm-style dining table, wood stove, spiral iron staircase, and vintage craftsmanship evoke the feel of a Tyrolean lodge. What it lacks in a dishwasher, it certainly makes up for in tranquility and charm. Before you book Alpine Meadows Cabin in the Woods, be sure to pack your slippers. We're plenty stocked with firewood and coffee cups.

The mountaineer shuttle will pick you up at this location and drop you off at Alpine Meadows during ski season.

    Cute rustic cabin with beautiful windows and a cozy vibe. Perfect for access to the mountain. Not fancy but had everything we needed! Thank you.

    Cozy a frame cabin suited our needs perfectly. Super close to Five Lakes trailhead, very pretty hike. Lots of dry firewood and kindling available.

    The whole group loved staying at this fun A Frame house. The staircase to the top floor was a fun way to get to bed. The house was stocked with everything we needed and the creek near by was a nice backdrop to listen to. Can't wait to come back.

    We stayed at this property in February 2023 - two families with four adults and four teens. We had no issues checking in but the path to the house was completely iced over when we arrived, creating a major slipping hazard for us getting our luggage and gear into the house. We would have appreciated if the path had been cleared in advance. The house itself was fine - functional but quite dated. The kitchen and laundry area could use an upgrade - the appliances and cabinets are old and worn out. The living and dining area are spacious and have some interesting antiques. Probably the best part of the house. The bedrooms and bathrooms are quite small. We felt cramped in them. On the whole we were underwhelmed considering all the positive reviews.

    The property is well situated. We went there for a bit of a snow experience with our family. Unfortunately our stay was cut short on account of an upcoming storm but we enjoyed a day of sledding in the backyard and some quiet time in this rustic A-frame.

    We had a wonderful stay at this enchanted cabin in the woods. We spent thanksgiving weekend here and it really was the perfect backdrop to bring our family tougher. We Enjoyed making fire every night. The host provided little branches and dry wood to burn, which made it very easy to make fire from scratch. Overall it was a great experience: Warm, clean, cozy home. Ps: the pillow in the downstairs bedroom is sent from heaven! It’s so soft and squishy, never slept so soundly ??
