* Available May, June 2026 and Winter 2026–27 * Sage Leaf Cabin is nestled in a friendly mountain neighborhood, easily accessible to Heavenly and other area resorts. Designed for modern, clutter-free comfort, the cabin encourages relaxation while providing everything needed for remote work, including three spacious desk areas. Enjoy the fully fenced backyard and wood-burning fireplace, or explore National Forest bike and hiking trails just around the corner. Dogs and kiddos welcome.

The space
Newly renovated with an environmentally friendly focus, Sage Leaf Cabin is the ideal home for the ski season and beyond (scroll down for distances to area ski resorts).

A true four-season getaway, the cabin is a 3-minute walk to renowned hiking and mountain bike trails (Corral area) and minutes from Tahoe Paradise and Lake Tahoe golf courses. Located off Pioneer Trail, it's an easy drive to Lake Tahoe beaches, restaurants and nightlife.

Surrounded by natural beauty, we kept things simple inside, thoughtfully blending Scandinavian design with some favorite mid-century and modern finds.

For guests' comfort, cleaning products and soaps are unscented, and towels and bedding are organic and/or OEKO-TEX certified. Pillows are filled with natural materials (wool, latex or kapok, a hypoallergenic alternative to down).

The home has forced-air heating with a Nest thermostat and a vented wood-burning fireplace. Kindling and seasoned wood are provided.

Sage Leaf Cabin is available for a winter ski lease, with a 4-month minimum preferred, and at other times of the year; a 28-day minimum is required (county rules). All utilities and snow removal are included, along with numerous amenities; please see cabin website.

Neighborhood highlights

The neighborhood is called Tahoe Paradise (no joke!). It's quiet and private yet convenient to area resorts, fabulous restaurants and basic services. Holiday Market grocery store is just 1.5 miles away.

Head into the National Forest just around the corner -- well-maintained neighborhood trails connect to Lower Corral and Mr. Toad's, famous mountain bike routes that are great for winter activities. We're also super close to a public golf course (and adjacent Washoe Meadows State Park) where you can snowshoe and x-country ski.

Most of all, we love our neighbors -- they're helpful when it seems like the snow will never end and super knowledgeable about the area!

I spend too much time: selecting songs for Music League
After 15+ years of driving from Chicago to Tahoe with dogs and hiking boots in the back of the Subaru, we flipped the script and decided to rent in the city and buy a small house in CA to spend more time with family. Since we mainly use Sage Leaf Cabin during the summer, it's available for winter rentals and potentially other times of the year. We're excited for you to enjoy our mountain basecamp! (Earlier reviews are of our 2nd-floor rental in Chicago's Lincoln Square, 5 stars all the way :-)
