Check out these seven Lake Tahoe cabins to book for a cozy getaway this fall. 

The largest alpine lake in the U.S., Lake Tahoe is a desirable year-round getaway that straddles the California-Nevada state line. 

Vibrant foliage and glassy blue waters breathe life into this autumnal oasis in October and November. If you visit during this time, you’ll find plenty to do, like brew or wine tasting, boat and water activities, miles of trails, lakefront dining, and even skiing in mid-November.

South Lake Tahoe has sandy beaches and a busy downtown that bustles with energy and activity. North Lake Tahoe has a rocky granite boulder shoreline and a more laid-back feel. Since Nevada has legalized gambling, you’ll be close to casino resorts in both places.

Cozy Lake Tahoe cabins are available as well in both buzzing South Lake Tahoe and sleepier North Lake Tahoe. From a romantic getaway to a retreat for families with kids who have special needs, here are seven cozy Lake Tahoe cabins worth renting this fall. 

Be sure to check the listing for the price and more details.

1. Stocked up and sensory-friendly

Incline Village

Stocked and sensory-friendly, this 1,360-square-foot cabin may be one of the most thoughtful places to stay ever. Every room, including three bedrooms, two bathrooms, living room, dining room, kitchen, wet bar, and laundry room, is filled with anything or everything one might need or want, from Advil to a Vizio sound bar–even a s’mores kit for roasting over an open fire on the deck. The cabin has been newly renovated from floor to ceiling, and rooms have brand-new mattresses, 680 thread-count sheets, down quilts and pillows, individual heating elements, and blackout curtains.

As a sensory-friendly home, there’s a quiet space, sound machines in each room, scentless laundry detergent, dimmable lights and clocks, sensory blankets, and noise-canceling headphones for kids who need extra support. You can play board games, cards, or DVDs (all included) by the wireless pellet fireplace stove or grab a walking stick from a storage closet and hike in the wilderness. The cabin is a short drive to beaches, dining, golf, Diamond Peak, Mt. Rose, and Northstar.

2. Historic cabin built around a tree

Glenbrook

Built more than 100 years ago, this pet-friendly, three-bedroom lakefront cabin has amazing views of Lake Tahoe and Cave Rock, a beach (depending on the water level), and tons of character.

A historic cabin, the kitchen appliances, TVs, bedding, and furniture are new, while oddities like an uneven floor, steep stairs, and trees growing through the deck add to its one-of-a-kind charm. The kitchen is modern other than the old-fashioned cast iron stove (only for decorative purposes). There’s a living room with a wood-burning fireplace, a full bathroom, three bedrooms, a half-bath, an expansive deck, and a BBQ, but no dock or air conditioning; in autumn, you won’t need it!

Cave Rock Park is a short walk away, while beaches are less than a 10-minute drive.

3. Sleek lakefront cabin with gourmet kitchen

Incline Village

This bougie two-story cabin is steps away from Big Blue, though you’ll also take in a gorgeous lake view from decks on both floors. The luxe interior is floor-to-ceiling hickory hardwood with a big wood-burning fireplace made from brick, two master bedrooms (one that opens up to a deck), and a kid’s room. Gourmands will appreciate the gourmet kitchen and wet bar, with a wine refrigerator. For a relaxing excursion, grab a spa treatment at The Hyatt Regency next door or check out the restaurants nearby.

4. A view and game room to remember

Incline Village

This traditional A-frame chalet cabin has a wraparound deck, a jetted tub and steam shower for the adults, and a game room for the kids (and kids at heart). The pet-friendly space has three bedrooms and two bathrooms and can sleep up to eight people. The master bedroom includes an office alcove, though it will be hard to get any work done with these stunning lake views. There’s a living area, kitchen, dining area, fireplace, and laundry room.

When you’re not playing pool or darts in the game room, you’ll find plenty of outdoor adventures, dining, and a grocery store nearby.

It’s a great space for families or groups of up to eight with four full bedrooms, including two kings, one queen, and one room with two full beds. Furniture and decor have a beachy feel, and almost everything is new, including three bathrooms, the kitchen, and flooring.
