Wonderful place!

Wonderful place! We went during Thanksgiving period. It was amazing experience! Totally love it. Beautiful cabin surrounded by snow all around. Enjoyed snow walking at the property. Roughly 30 minutes away from South lake Tahoe. It was our first experience in cabin and it was totally worth it. Very friendly staff. Highly recommend this place.
