Cobalt by Tahoe Getaways - Luxury 3BR w/ Hot Tub, Walk to Lake - Dog OK

This A-frame vacation cabin has been lovingly transformed into a beautiful and modern Tahoe getaway. Upon entering, you'll be struck by the detail and thought that went into this recent renovation. A comfortable living room anchors the open floor plan and gives way to a stunning, contemporary kitchen complete with top-end cookware and appliances, turning meal preparation into a satisfying experience. Whether it's a group effort or there's a go-to chef in the family, all travelers will love coming together at the large rustic dining table for every meal. A gorgeous cast-iron free-standing gas fireplace provides the perfect ambience that is reminiscent of the original "old Tahoe cabin feel" and provides that genuine mountain aesthetic. New and old blend beautifully in the space with a new (2022) 55" Samsung smart TV with Sonos soundbar and sub for movie night, and strong WiFi with 1 GBPS internet plan so you can stay as productive and entertained as you wish. If you are looking for the perfect mountain getaway to enjoy with friends and family, Cobalt Cabin is the place.

Those with mobility concerns will appreciate a main floor bedroom, elegantly outfitted with a king bed and a new Avocado Organic matress and new linens. Across the hall, you will find a gorgeous bathroom with double vanity and walk-in shower. Wander upstairs where you'll find two guest rooms and a half bathroom. Both upstairs bedrooms are furnished with comfortable queen beds, feature beautiful skylights that create a warm welcome, and offer serene views of the mountains and forest beyond. All 3 bedrooms have in-room digital wall heaters for customized comfort all night long, year-round. The entire home is beautifully decorated with upscale, yet comfortable decor, leaving your vacation relaxed and unforgettable.

Cobalt Cabin's location cannot be beat! The property backs up to 17 acres of open space with hiking and mountain biking trails right out the back door. Best of all, you're 3 blocks from the lake, so you can stroll to Gar Woods for Wet Woody's on the deck after a long day on the mountain, CBs (a locals' favorite) for pizza, The Old Post Office Cafe for a late brunch or happy hour, and Waterman's Landing, which offers everything from your morning latte to SUP and kayak rentals. The location and outdoor space coincide to set this vacation home apart from the rest. Enjoy the peace and tranquility on the spacious deck that is ideal for outdoor dining in the summer months, or unwind under the stars in the steaming hot tub year-round. If you are looking for a convenient, easy, and stylish location, look no further.

We had an excellent stay. The house was comfortable and clean. The host was very friendly and shared great local tips and information. We loved the hot tub and all the open land behind the house. The area is quiet and peaceful, and the location is perfect. Just a 5 minute walk to the lake. Highly recommend.

Really Lovely Cabin on Quiet Street

We really enjoyed the cabin, there were very nice touches like beach chairs and dog bowls for our dog. The neighborhood was peaceful and walking distance to the lake. Would love to stay again!

We came here to celebrate our friends bachelorette weekend and couldn't be happier with the space! It was in a great location - just a short drive to food and the beach. The host was incredibly responsive and answered our questions promptly and were kind enough to set up the hot tub for us prior to our arrival. The beds were comfy and there were more than enough towels for the 7 of us which was incredible. Would definitely stay here again!

Great place to stay! Very close to the lake and to a few good places to eat. We stayed during a big snow storm so clearing the path was a bit of a chore, but to be expected with so much snow falling. The spa was a fun treat during the snow storm! I'm definitely saving this location as a favorite for the next time I'm visiting Tahoe.

Small, not great

I love Tahoe Getaways, so please don't hold this particular review against them. This particular place was too small. A couple primary issues with the house: 1 - The furnace fan was incredibly loud and annoying. Couldn't do anything about it. 2 - The 1/2 bath upstairs is a joke and doesn't even have a proper door that closes fully. 3 - Snow made this property impossible to use. The deck and the outside hot tub were unusable unless you found someone to shovel it for you. 4 - The location of the TV made it fairly awkward to enjoy from the couch. 5 - The shower downstairs was great, but everyone in the house will have to use it since it's the only one. This is really a 1bed/1bath cottage. Don't expect much.
