Do not trust your family vacation plans with this place. I made a "reservation" on the website choosing an available cabin on the days we needed. Put in my payment information and I got a reservation number so I thought we were good. I got an E-mail 5 days later saying our reservation was rejected and to go back to the website to select a cabin on a day that is available. The website doesn't auto update. These people are manually inputting reservations and manually updating the calendar on the web site. WTF. What year is this! If you want to stay here plan out a couple of months to play the what days are available game. Good Luck. Dear Wesley, We have reviewed your order and regret to inform you that your reservation cannot be accepted at this time. Manager Note: Good day, Unfortunately, the days you requestor are not available for this unit. Please check one of our other units for availability. Thank you.

J.L. left this review: These cabins are on the Tahoe Stations property, no main gates to go thru and an easy drive to any area on the North Shore of Lake Tahoe. The South Shore areas of interest are all about a 45-60 minute drive along the east or west sides of the lake. The cabins are spacious and clean, the only issue I found with using these cabins is the reservation process, getting the dates you like may prove difficult; we ended up selecting a date that was middle of a non-holiday week just to get in as these cabins are in high demand due to their location.
