6 Reviews of Property 906145 in Soda Springs, California

The family had a wonderful time at the cabin, even without much snow. We successfully got all the grandkids on skis for the first time and they had a ball. New Year's Eve was spectacular with all the fireworks around the lake. Would highly recommend to friends.

Great, clean lakefront cabin! Mike was a pleasure to work with by phone and email, and very prompt in answering all of our questions. We traveled with two teenagers, and the cabin had more than enough space for everyone (each teen had their own bedroom and bathroom!). The place can easily sleep 10. The large kitchen was the most equipped of any cabin or condo we have ever rented. Huge washer and dryer on site. There was a DVD player for movies, but no cable TV, giving the family the needed space to chat, play games, and watch some old movies. The two-car garage was very roomy for our large minivan and bikes. There were three bikes and a smaller girl's bike on site for guest use. Nice canoes were also available, though the lake was unseasonably mostly frozen over in mid-June (!) so we could not take them out. Plowed paved streets go all around the connected lakes, for nice daily walks or bide rides. The Ice Lodge, on the opposite end of the lakes from the cabin, is a nice seasonal spot for drinks or dinner. Very close to Soda Springs and Sugar Bowl Ski Resorts, and Royal Gorge Cross Country trails. We took several short day trips down to Donner and Tahoe Lakes as well, making the cabin a nice launching point for area sightseeing. This is a perfect year-around cabin for a family reunion, a multi-family vacation, or a quiet single family vacation.

My family stayed here for our holiday gathering and we had a great time! So much so that we definitely want to stay here again some time for the next family gathering!

The cabin is ideally situated where you actually avoid having to go through all the common road traffic areas because it is so close to the bay area. And the setting is just so beautiful right by the lake and in a neighborhood area. The cabin itself is a lot more spacious than we expected and easily accommodated my family and their spouses and the kids. The kids just loved the place! The two living room areas were convenient because one was for the kids and the other was for the adults.

The owner is super nice too and was so easy transacting with them. We are definitely keeping this cabin as a reference for future weekend get-aways!

Our family rented the cabin in July and enjoyed perfect 70-degree weather. The main reasons for choosing this cabin were the lakefront location and the use of the cabin's 2 canoes, 2 kayaks (1 adult, 1 child), and 4 bicycles (3 adult and 1 young girl's). My husband and I and our 2 teenage boys enjoyed the outdoor activities together. When indoors, the gorgeous view of the lake from the living & dining rooms, kitchen, and lower bedrooms was so soothing. One morning, my husband witnessed a Bald Eagle catching a fish in the lake. Having no cable/dish TV was actually a plus as we spent time together playing foosball & air hocky in the loft, playing board games, and watching a couple of movies on the TV via VCR/DVD in the evening. We thoroughly enjoyed our mini-vacation at the cabin, and Mike, the owner, was a pleasure to work with. We highly recommend this cabin.
