Everything was exactly what we needed and hoped for - a break from work/technology and the chance to be in a small, quiet Sierra town, away from the madness that is now Tahoe. The Lakes Basin recreation area is 10-15 minutes up the road and offers endless outdoor opportunities for hiking, fishing, swimming, mountain biking, horseback riding or just sitting gazing at vistas comparable to the Alps or Dolomites. Stunning scenery. The cabin was extremely comfortable, well-equipped, and nestled amongst trees. Our host was extremely responsive and helpful.
