Our collection of Lake Tahoe vacation rentals hug the mountains along the North Shore, offering easy access to both skiing and beach activities. Choose from newly constructed condos with contemporary decor and ski-in/ski-out access to Northstar Resort, log cabins with cozy wood-burning stoves and lake views, or timber homes with expansive decks and open living spaces. Many of our Tahoe rentals welcome pets, and a number lie within strolling distance of the beach.
