A romantic escape with a “modern ski lodge” atmosphere, Osprey Cottage is part of Cedar Crest Cottages, a historic vacation retreat that has attracted visitors since the 1930s. The recently renovated home sits on the upper level of a two-story cottage, boasting a private covered porch, radiant heat, wood-paneled walls and high ceilings.

* Please be advised that this home does not have air conditioning.

Osprey also lies steps from the community fire pit, surrounded by towering cedar trees for a cozy evening after a day on the mountain or lake.

Inside, a light-filled, open-concept living area combines mountain ambience with modern entertainment. Keep your evenings tech-free with a board game on the dining room table or glass of wine on the porch -- or indulge in modern amenities with large-screen TV, equipped with streaming capabilities.

Steps from the living area, a fully equipped kitchen sets the stage for home-cooked meals with Bosch, GE, and Liebherr appliances. Enjoy cozy dinners for two, or invite guests to the 4-seat dining table.
The primary suite offers a king-sized bed. Eclectically styled in an alpine-mod style with tiled floors and a patterned accent wall, the bedroom also features a luxurious en-suite bathroom with a deep tub shower. A separate powder room adds convenience, while a private washer and dryer allow you to pack light, no matter how long you stay.

As a guest of Cedar Creek Cottages, you’ll enjoy access to the community BBQ grill and oversized fire pit with lake and mountain views. In the summer, stroll to the beach across the street for swimming, sailing and boating on the lake, or hike through the surrounding mountains. In the winter, drive less than two minutes to the family-friendly Homewood Mountain Resort, or just 25 minutes to the varied terrain of Olympic Valley. The restaurants, shops and entertainment of Tahoe City are less than 10 minutes away.

However you choose to explore Tahoe’s lively West Shore, Osprey Cottage offers a cozy retreat with all the comforts of home.

Please be advised that the firepit is seasonal and is not operational during the winter months due to the heavy snowfall.

    What a nice place! The cottage was very nice.....and clean. It was wonderful to have a stocked kitchen with new pots, pans and utensils. We cooked breakfast each morning after a long walk. I would definitely recommend to friends and we will be back.

    I absolutely loved this getaway at Cedar Crest Cottages! The layout of all the different cottages were so cute and the landscaping was pleasant. Parking was easy and the location very easy to find. My partner and I loved the fire pit and lounging outside during breakfast on our little porch. Our room was bigger than anticipated, very clean, and had all the amenities. The only thing of note was that we could not find one of the fan remotes which made it a little warm during the evenings. I will 100% be returning and look forward to our next visit!

    The unit we stayed in had everything we needed. The only exception was that the ceiling fan remote for the bedroom was missing. There was a wall switch to turn the fan on and off, but no way of operating the fan without the light being on. Which of course, made the fan useless at night. But I called the next morning and they promptly brought us a floor fan. The unit was very clean, and the grounds were beautiful. Would definitely recommend.
