Echo Summit Cabin: Family Friendly - Modern - Hot Tub - 1 Mile to Ski Sierra!

Family Friendly Cabin
Please note the cabin comfortably sleeps 4 adults plus kiddos. If you would like to have more than 4 adults, please get prior approval before booking.

The Property
Situated on an acre of land backing up to the headwaters of the American River, enjoy exploring our meadow, forest and riverfront.

Highway 50 & Parking
Please note that the cabin is *on* Hwy 50 which does mean there is some highway noise. It also means we have exceptional road access in winter, and if you're coming from the Sacramento area, we are a shorter drive than the basin. Note that there is parking in the driveway for two vehicles but *no* garage access.

Sierra at Tahoe
We are on Echo Summit as opposed to being in the Lake Tahoe Basin. This means we are 1 mile from the entrance of the Sierra at Tahoe Ski Resort!

Echo Lakes
One mile away is Echo Lakes, which accessible in the summer, are some of the most beautiful alpine lakes in the region with a relatively easy hiking trail.

Back Deck
From the living room, enter the very large deck that is up above the meadow behind, overlooking the headwaters of the American River.

Our Renovation
We purchased the cabin in 2016 and worked pretty much every weekend to fully renovate the interior. We then lived full time at the cabin for a few years (with the help of great friends!) before relocating and beginning our time as hosts. We absolutely love sharing the cabin and are so thankful that everyone treats it as they would their own home :)
