DETAILS: Escape to Owl Cottage 9 for a mountain getaway on Lake Tahoe’s West Shore! Nestled among a forest of majestic cedar trees—and only a quick stroll from the beach—this 4-bedroom, 2.5-bathroom cottage sleeps 8 guests and is the perfect retreat for outdoor adventures. Part of the historic Cedar Crest Cottages, enjoy grilling on the community BBQ, sharing drinks around the firepit, or carving the slopes at nearby Homewood Mountain Resort and Palisades Tahoe. Guests will love starting each morning relaxing on the porches and ending the night by the flickering gas fireplace.

A cozy foyer with stone floors and coat hooks welcomes guests upon arrival. Discard ski boots or beach gear before venturing into the spacious great room, where hardwood floors, beamed ceilings, and built-in wooden bookshelves create the feeling of a refined mountain lodge. The living space’s plush sofa, matching loveseat, and 2 leather armchairs—all set before an impressive stone fireplace—invite guests to settle in for a comfy night of conversation, board games, or reminiscing about the day’s adventures. A wall-mounted Smart TV offers entertainment options for unwinding. Crafting homemade meals is easy thanks to the fully equipped kitchen, boasting cutting-board countertops and high-end appliances. A dining table overlooking the woods offers seating for 6, with additional space for 2 at the breakfast bar. Guests mixing work and play can take advantage of the office’s 2 desks, 3 chairs, and Mac monitor. Off the living space, a covered porch with a 4-seat dining table calls for alfresco meals—or curl up on the soft outdoor furniture for a nightcap in the relaxing atmosphere.

All the home’s sleeping accommodations are on the upper level, starting with 2 guest bedrooms featuring king beds that can be turned into 2 twins—both of the bedrooms boast a Smart TV and 1 has access to the furnished upper-level deck. The third guest bedroom features an inviting king bed and deck access, while a light-filled guest bedroom with a full bed completes the floor.

Owl Cottage 9 has everything guests need for a charmed Lake Tahoe vacation. Easily explore the area with on-site parking for 1 vehicle. For the nearest public beach access, turn left out of the driveway, walk to Fern Street, cross the street, and follow the braided cement path to the beach. Book today!

    Our family has been coming to Cedar Crest for over 10 years now and we can't imagine staying anywhere else when visiting the West Shore. The cabins are always clean, comfortable and we love the accessibility to the Lake as well as the communal fire pit. We miss the beach chairs, towels and paddle boards that used to be available and hope they come back someday. Thanks for helping make our family vacation another memorable one.

    The house is nice and cozy, and it's big enough and has enough beds for all 9 of us. The best part of the house is its location. We were going to Homewood Mountain Resort to ski, and it only took us 5 minute-drive to get to and come back. It's also right on the main street. Some may find it too noisy, I can hear the cars at night, but it didn't bother me too much, and I like turning off of the big street and I'm home, since I don't enjoy driving in the smaller streets where it's icy and snowy. It is also not far from where all the eateries/ restaurants are. For the most part, the house is clean. I didn't mean to look for it but I just somehow still saw cobwebs by the lights and in corners. The plates and cups still had stains so I had to wash them before using. For visitors who want to cook in the house, you'll need to bring enough cooking oil and condiments because there isn't much. The stove and the ovens take a long time to cook, and the cookwares stick. Overall, we'll go again
