Ideal for a family or small group of friends, this charming two-level cottage sits just above the community fire pit at Cedar Crest Cottages, a historic vacation retreat nestled on forested grounds with filtered lake and mountain views.

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

Newly renovated with tasteful, mountain lodge-inspired decor, Woodpecker Cottage features a convenient layout well-suited for a weekend escape or a season-long working vacation.

Downstairs, two uniquely styled bedrooms offer privacy and king- sized beds, one of which can be converted to two extra-long twins upon request. Small children are easily accommodated with a crib or floor futon. Both bedrooms feature plush bedding, twin nightstands, a picture window and wall-mounted TV.

Guests share a newly remodeled bathroom on the lower level with a step-in shower, and a separate powder room on the main level. A private washer and dryer, complete with complimentary laundry pods, adds convenience.

As a guest of Cedar Crest Cottages, you’ll enjoy access to the community BBQ grill and oversized fire pit with filtered lake and mountain views. In the summer, stroll to the beach 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.

Whether you’re planning a family vacation or seeking a place to reset and rejuvenate, Woodpecker Cottage offers a peaceful place to call home in the heart of Lake Tahoe’s year-round recreation.

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

Perfect Rental, However never received any instructions on how to get into the unit. I had to research to try to find a phone number to contact someone therefore we were late getting into the unit. The unit had a broken blind, would not go up, therefore the unit was very dark, that took two phone calls to try to get someone out there to fix that. Icemaker did not work and toilet seat was broken when they came out to fix the blind. We informed them about the icemaker, but that never got fixed. I did not bother calling about the toilet seat, I didn’t want to spend all my time getting repairs done to the unit.However, the unit was great and I would rent there again.
