Great Mtn Cabin - Game Room, Hot Tub, Wi-Fi, Pets, Close to Beach/Eats/Hikes


Maximum occupancy for this home is 12. This can include up to 10 adults (age 13 and up).

WHEN BOOKING, please tell us the ages of everyone, the occasion for your visit and if anyone will be bringing a pet, including the size and breed.

Please don’t inquire about a ski lease. We do not do ski leases. Thanks!!

Please note: Per short-term rental guidelines, Lippe Lodge may have a maximum of 10 adults total, 13 years old and older. There is no maximum on children 12 and under, but the 12 total guests maximum applies. There is an additional charge of $25 per person plus tax over 10 people. WHEN BOOKING OR INQUIRING: The number of ADULTS you enter must include anyone 13 years of age and older.

Discover your perfect FAMILY GETAWAY when you vacation at Lippe Lodge! Conveniently located on the West Shore, you have easy access to SEVERAL BEACHES, 4 downhill ski mountains, several cross-country ski trails and sledding hills - all within 5 - 30 minutes. With only a 10-minute walk to the beach and local restaurants and a 2-mile drive to Tahoe City (great bike ride!), our home is easy to find in the mountain-town neighborhood of Pineland and it's easy to get to when everything is covered in snow. For golf lovers, rejoice in knowing you're just minutes away from several championship golf courses. Located super close to Sunnyside Resort.

An unexpected EXTRA (and not found in just any vacation home) is our GAME ROOM. Located on the Upper Level, the inviting, comfortable Game Room is equipped with a full-size pool table, a bistro table & stools, 2 over-stuffed sofas, a large flat screen TV with DVD player, DVD's, play area, a full bathroom and a deck at each end. This is the perfect gathering spot after a big day of skiing or snowboarding or after a full day at the beach or on the boat!

The FAMILY ROOM is on the Lower Level and is directly adjacent to the Kitchen and Dining Room. The expansive sectional sofa surrounds the Family Room allowing you to relax and enjoy the cozy flames of the gas-burning fireplace, to daydream out the large sliding glass doors or to get under a cozy blanket and watch your favorite old movie on the flat screen TV.

Enjoy meals or libations outside on our OVERSIZED DECK! Complete with table, umbrella, chairs and Adirondeck chairs, there's plenty of room for everyone. The kids will love setting out on an adventure in the LARGE YARD AREA and everyone can enjoy playing a game of horse shoes at the horse shoes pit. The outdoor HOT TUB is built into the deck and seats 6 people.

PETS are welcome, too (fee applies - see below). Please include the number of pets in the "Pets" field of the quotation window. If you care enough to bring your pet on your vacation in our home, then we know you've house-trained them! Our neighborhood, and the area in general, is very dog friendly! Hurricane Bay is a dog-friendly beach that is just 1 mile away from Sunnyside Beach. We do ask that you are diligent about cleaning up after your pet in the yard! PETS MAY NOT BE LEFT ALONE INSIDE THE HOUSE, UNLESS CRATED. $75 per pet plus tax for 1 - 3 nights, $150.00 per pet plus tax for 4+ nights.

BEDROOMS are located on the Lower Level (2) and the Upper Level (2). The Lower Level Bedrooms both have a queen bed in each. There is also a queen pull-out in the sectional sofa in the Family Room (most suitable for small people, AKA kids), allowing the Lower Level to sleep 6 people. In the Upper Level, 1 bedroom has a King Bed and a Twin Day Bed and the 2nd Bedroom has a Queen Bed and a Twin Bed. There is also an alcove area (not an enclosed bedroom) that has a Twin Day Bed and a Twin Bed, allowing the Upper Level to sleep 8 people.

BATHROOMS: 1 full Bathroom is on the Lower Level (with tub & shower), and 2 full Bathrooms are on the Upper Level (1 with tub & shower and 1 with just shower).

KITCHEN/DINING ROOM: The fully stocked Kitchen has everything! All major appliances, coffee maker, toaster, blender, pots/pans, dishes, glassware, flatware....you name it, it's there! The gas stove top is built into the bar area, which makes it nice for more than one person to be helping in the Kitchen, and there's room for 3 people to sit at stools at the bar. The Dining Room table has chairs to seat 6 people, but there's space to pull up stools or extra chairs to seat more.

FLAT SCREEN TV's: Each flat screen TV is equipped with a ROKU Express HD Streaming Media Player. There's plenty of free streaming available, but bring your log-in/password for the apps you enjoy that are not free.

WINTER STAYS: We provide plow service for the driveway. Guests must move their vehicles when plows are in the neighborhood so they can clear the snow. Snow shoveling and keeping paths clear will be part of your Tahoe experience. Please expect to shovel to keep paths clear to and around the hot tub, and keep the bear box (for trash) door free of snow so the door can be opened.

Some LOCALS' RECOMMENDATIONS: Hit the Bridge Tender or Rosie's Cafe for some apres ski action, go ice skating at Northstar or take the Gondola to the top of the mountain at Squaw! Walk to the Firesign Cafe for breakfast or lunch or to The Shadyside Lounge for lunch or dinner. In Summer, enjoy lunch or dinner on the deck overlooking Lake Tahoe at Sunnyside Resort. Go to the Free Concerts at Commons Beach on Sunday (bring a picnic). The best to-go sandwiches are at the Tahoma Market in Tahoma. Get great coffee and pastries at Tahoe House (ride your bike). Ride or walk the bike path from home to Squaw Valley. Tube the Truckee River to River Ranch and have an ice cream (some tubes available at the house)! Enjoy!

Excellent lodging experience with the family! Thank you!
We recently stayed this past weekend. Excellent propery and location. Melanie was very nice and prompt with communication throughout the entire process from booking until the time we checked out. :) The home was spacious for the 10 of us + 2 dogs. The children loved the game room pool table and spa. We got to enjoy the spa after a day of hiking and jet skiing at the lake nearby. Would highly recommend staying here :)

Great Booking
The Lippe Lodge was the perfect space for my family. Traveling with two young children is always a daunting task but the home was exactly what we needed! The large outdoor space allowed everyone to enjoy the sunshine and relax. Location of the house was perfect for a short walk down to the lake too!

Ski trip to Tahoe
Enjoyed staying here for our ski trip to Palisade ski resort for three families. The house was clean in quiet neighborhood and on 15-20 min away from the ski resort. Tahoe city was just 10 min away. The price was very reasonable. There was plenty of space for three families. The kids enjoyed playing pool upstairs in the game room. There is no suite bedroom where the bathroom is attached. Some of the beds were little order and wasn’t the most comfortable. The host was easy to work with. Enjoyed our stay.

Great multi family stay
Our close knit friend group has been doing an annual ski/snow trip for years, and the Lippe Lodge was by far the best suited to our needs of all that we have stayed at over the years. Our families had room to be together and still not feel cramped, and really enjoyed the pool table and hot tub! While the kitchen was a little small for a group as big as ours, it was easy to manage. Proximity to skiing, snow activities and amenities were just fantastic, highly recommend the Lippe Lodge for group stays!

Large Tahoe City rental, great for families
This house has lots of space and is ideal for families. The large deck, grill, hot tub, and upstairs gameroom are great amenities. We also enjoyed the horseshoe game set up in the yard. The house is dated, but comfortable. The property manager responded very quickly to our questions and needs. Our visit in July 2023 in Tahoe City meant crowded beaches, stores, and traffic, so I personally will not come back to this area. However, Tahoe is beautiful and I hope all visitors will do their part to keep it that way. We rented a kayak at Commons Beach, rode the Gondola at North Star Village to hike, and hiked other nearby trails. Mountain biking is very popular as are the water sports. As visitors from Texas we also enjoyed the cool evenings and nights. Chipmonk visitors in the house were very entertaining for the young children in our group.

Would return!
We spent the most time in the large sectional couch family room facing the outdoors and then also the outdoor space! Corner house. Great outdoor area for our pup, horseshoes, badminton, volleyball and just enjoying the beauty of trees and stars. Kitchen had everything we needed and we did a lot of cooking. Upstairs got warm but opened windows and used the many fans available and cooled down nicely. Kitchen dining area was large enough for the 10 of us to all enjoy together. Super thoughtful welcome package…including a treat for our pup! 💙🐶. WiFi worked great. Towels were so soft. Washer and dryer convenient. Lots of sap from the trees. Sap goop remover was left for us and worked great. Lots of helpful notes left. Such a wonderful week!

A Wonderful Stay!
We thoroughly enjoyed our time in Tahoe over the 4th of July weekend. The cabin was very comfortable, super clean and well-stocked and provided plenty of space for a family of 10 with lots of places to hang out. The location was excellent - Tahoe City, hiking and jeeping trails, horseback riding, rafting the Truckee River, lake beaches, a marina and boat launch were all within a 10 minute drive. We all had a great time! Absolutely no complaints!
