Head to Shaver Lake and stay in this charming, three-bedroom, one-and-a-half bath cabin for six for a tranquil getaway with your own private snow park just outside! The family dog is also welcome (for a small nightly fee), so pack up the kids and get ready for your unforgettable mountain retreat!

You'll be nestled in the pines at the end of a cul-de-sac in the Sierra Cedars Subdivision. With sled runs right outside your door, you won't have to go far for smile-inducing fun. When you want to venture out and do some downhill skiing or boarding, China Peak Mountain Resort is 21 miles northeast of you. The area is also a prime spot for summer activities as well, including hiking, mountain biking, horseback riding, boating, fishing, and more.

At the end of your exhilarating day in the great outdoors, get comfortable in the living area for a movie marathon. The large, flatscreen cable TV comes with a DVD player, and there's also free WiFi for more entertainment options, as well as another TV in the upstairs bedroom, which plays DVDs only.

The fully equipped kitchen invites you to cook up a feast, which you can enjoy in the dining area that opens to the living room or outside on the deck, surrounded by absolute serenity. There's also a gas grill for summer cookouts, and a private washer/dryer and extra fridge, to make your life easier.

Shaver Lake always delivers with outdoor enjoyment in a gorgeous setting, and this adorable cabin will only enhance your experience!

Responsive management company
The management company was very responsive when we reached out about cleanliness concerns. Overall, the cabin needs some TLC and deep cleaning. Parking was a little confusing and should be explained upon check in.

Cute Cabin
Cute cabin, quiet location. Shaver lake itself is beautiful but unfortunately the shoreline had a lot of trash. Beer cans, cloths, dirty diaper. Very sad and disappointed with the lake area. Just hung out at the cabin and played games.

Nice little Cabin
It was comfortable, a little hard to find at night and could have been cleaner. There were dirty dishes in the dishwasher and wet dishes in the cabinets. Location was great and everything worked as expected. Overall no issues with our stay.

Great with some caveat
Overall this is a cute little cabin that served our needs well. The only downside for us was that this is a dog friendly property because that meant it wasn’t as clean as we would have liked. There was dog hair around and I never like to see carpet in dog friendly rentals. Some other things that could be improved are the quality of the bedding and better lighting in the kitchen. But overall it was a good stay.

Great House
The house was very clean and everything was exactly as described. The kitchen has plenty of cooking items and the TV/Internet work great. Our only complaint would be that it was very hard (impossible) to contact the rental agency. We emailed and sent a text and did not get any reply. Also, the upstairs rooms can get hot, but there are plenty of fans to help pump in the cool mountain air. I would highly recommend this house.

Not quite up to par this time
The downstairs bed had no pillowcases. Deck and porch looked like they haven’t be swept for quite awhile. No umbrella on deck this time. Just thought you’d like to know….

Disappointed
The cabin was cute, but very stuffy, no ceiling fans… strong odor of paint, or shellack. Stairway carpets were very stained, there was a dead spider in the freezer, soiled sheets upstairs (they had mucus on them), and a used paper bowl on the TV cabinet.

Nice Location
This house is it a nice quiet neighborhood and let us bring our dog which we liked. We also appreciated the gas fireplace, powerful wall heater, and plenty of space heaters to keep everything warm during a cold and stormy weekend. Overall the house is dated and quite worn, and was not super clean, but nothing we couldn't live with. Zero instructions or guidance upon arrival, no checkout instructions or anything like that which we found strange. Important to note that Google maps thinks the house is on the plot of land across the street so be prepared to spend some time looking, especially if you show up in the dark. I would probably shop around before staying here again but overall it was fine and we had a nice vacation.

Not ideal for summer!
This Cabin does not have ac. Or a cooler. Upon check in our Cabin’s interior temperature was 86 degrees. I understand the unit doesn’t have a cooling system but there was no windows open or fans on to help cool off the inside of the cabin. We called Vacasa and they offered us a free night at a later date in another cabin to make up. I contacted the property host and never received a reply. This is a winter cabin only as it gets HOT in the summer months

Horrible
Power went out 2nd day (Friday) around 6pm. Power wasn’t restored until Saturday around 4:30pm. No candles available in the cabin. Beds were Horrific. Lumpy, deep dent in one. Kept having to pull myself out all night. 3rd day in (Sunday) No hot water. I’m assuming no propane. Got there Thursday evening, the water barely ran warm. No one was able to shower. We left Sunday instead of Monday. Won’t be returning to that cabin.

Week in the Woods
This house was great for our family for the 5 days. The only things I would mention is that they do not provide any additional household items if you run out. After 3 of our 5 days we were getting low on TP, and told that they do not restock Toilet Paper or papertowels. There are also no kitchen towels, we ended up using bathroom handtowels. There is also no clear identification of what to do with trash. We had a few bags and were told to use the provided cans on property, but there were none. I dont think the person answering text questions, is actually local, or has any idea what the property situation is. Other than that it was a great stay and we had a good time in the mountains with family.

Cozy simple cabin
This cozy simple cabin is in a quiet area just a 5-7 minute ride by car into the town of Shaver. The place is functional and clean, however it does not have enough warm bedding — we went into town and bought blankets. There are several space heaters and an electric fireplace, but it snowed so the summer bedding didn’t cut it! The owners definitely need to invest in new door handles/locks. The doors were difficult to close and lock from the inside and the top locks on both doors did not work. Overall we enjoyed our stay, thanks!

Very much a cabin in the woods
This place had very much a cabin feel, which is what we were looking for. The indoors looked like it had been updated recently and we were very happy that it was not in the burn area.

Cozy cabin with great outdoor space
Loved the outdoor space, the wifi, the washer/dryer. Good enough space for a family. I do feel like a few small updates could make a huge difference. There wasn’t any extra toilet paper or trash bags, so we had to buy some; coffee maker didn’t work; dishwasher was literally falling over.
