Tahoma Meadows Cottages

This beautiful 2 bedroom/2 bath cabin leaves you with a feel of "Old Tahoe." A-frame roof with log pillars. The interior decorating is a perfect Tahoe cabin feel. The natural landscape is lovely. Quiet street. We enjoyed evening walks with our dogs. The mattress was probably the worst we have ever slept on - hard, and felt every spring. We received a text from Ulla, the owner, checking in to see if we needed anything. We replied there was one coffee filter for our 4 night stay. She said "yes! we are all out, and invited us to go shopping at the high priced Tahoe Market to buy some more to supply the cabin. At $399 a night, we thought that maybe should be supplied. There is also no Saran wrap or baggies - so make a note to bring supplies. There is a note asking you to leave a tip for the cleaning people; I own 2 Airbnb's, and the "cleaning fee" goes entirely to them - not sure why we paid $125 cleaning fee, and were also asked to leave a tip. Our 4 night stay was over $2k after taxes, $100 dog fee, and $125 cleaning fee. We won't be back because of the cost, and lack of sleep due to the mattress. Not to mention having to bring our own kitchen supplies, and add a tip on top of the cleaning fee; we did not use 85% of anything there, and left it spotless.

I loved this place. Cabins may be a bit dated, but I think that adds to the charm. Cabins are super clean and spacious. Staff are wonderful. Continental breakfast is limited, but the items offered made great hiking snacks.

Tahoma Meadows was fine, but definitely don’t expect anything amazing. The “breakfast” was really just some fruit or oatmeal or granola bars that you can go pick up from the front desk. The “king bed” is really just two twin beds put together. Generally the furniture is a bit dated and the room is fairly small. The rooms are clean and the front desk staff when open are friendly.

We stayed at Tahoma Meadows Cottages for 2 nights, and it gave us some much needed rest after visiting multiple cities. The area is beautiful and there is lots of hiking close by. The staff were very kind. Covid precautions are still in place, so we didn’t get a chance to experience the breakfast we’d seen people rave about in other reviews. They made sure we had plenty of food, tea, and coffee to have a good breakfast in our cottage each morning though.
