Lake side house rentals in Rubicon Bay

Enjoyed a great stay here with our family of five over MLK weekend in 2025. Check in notes were helpful to let us know what was there versus what we needed to bring. Check in was easy and everything we used worked great! We didn’t need to contact host much but when we did, we got a promotion reply. Place is a little noisy being on a main thoroughfare, but the bedrooms are all in the back, which helps. The noise didn’t bother us. Overall I definitely recommend.

Our group had a great stay here. 12 adults fit comfortably, and we appreciated the variety of bed set ups and descriptions of each bedroom in the listing so we could sort out room assignments ahead of time. The place felt bigger than the photos made it seem, and we really enjoyed walking the path around the lake in the morning. Quiet little street right on the water that's convenient to all the main roads and attractions - can't beat it. Derick and Thy were super helpful and friendly - they even sent someone over to remedy a malfunctioning coffee maker. Would definitely recommend, and will be staying again if we're ever in the area again!

The location is great and the is home clean and comfortable. The kitchen is well stocked. The restaurants nearby are good. The walking trails close by too.

We had a wonderful stay. The house is as beautiful as it looks in pictures, with a beautiful view of the lake. It was extremely clean and well stocked with supplies. Linda was a very communicative host and provided clear and detailed instructions for our stay. Would highly recommend!

We had such a great stay here with family and friends over the weekend! The cabin was beautiful, in a great location, and the host was super friendly and responsive. One thing that really stood out was how well-stocked everything was, which isn’t something we’ve typically seen at other Airbnbs. The kitchen had everything we needed, from pots and pans to coffee machines, spices, and seasonings, which was perfect since we did a lot of cooking. Just a heads-up if you’re a coffee person: they provide the machines but not the coffee, so be sure to bring your own! The place was also dog-friendly, which was a huge plus. We loved that there were tons of games, activities, and even outdoor gear to keep everyone entertained. You can tell the host really cares about the guest experience, and we’d definitely stay here again. Highly recommend!

Gigi is a great host and was very responsive to our requests. Her home in Zephyr Cove is beautiful and homey! My family and I had a wonderful stay.

Lovely home with everything we needed. Lots of sweet touches - handmade soaps, fabulous blankets for cuddling on the couch, convenient firewood, incredible midcentury modern furniture (the couch!!!!), Great Wall art throughout. This place has personality, and you can tell it’s cherished.

We took the family for a long weekend and couldn’t have asked for a better spot. The property offered the perfect balance of privacy and proximity to the lake. Everything was either within walking distance or just a short 5-minute drive away. The home was exceptionally clean, and the neighborhood was peaceful and quiet—exactly what we were hoping for. The host was incredibly responsive and made sure we had everything we needed throughout our stay. We’d absolutely love to come back. Thanks so much!

it was warm, cozy and welcoming. Glenn is one of the best host we've had and we have rented quite a bit. A very seasoned host. The cabin was very clean, and had many amenities.

Very beautiful cabin and breath-taking views. It is a place you will not forget! Made so many memories here. Will definitely book again.

Claire was always responsive and kind. The cabin was amazing for our family's Christmas trip. Beautiful surroundings and view! Kitchen accommodated cooking a full Christmas dinner, the dining area was perfect for family puzzles and board games, and the ping pong and foosball were a hit with everyone. A Christmas we are sure to cherish forever.

We had a wonderful stay! Great location on the water and near the town and great restaurants. It was so lovely to wake up to the gorgeous lake view from the master bedroom in the mornings. Would definitely stay here again!

Mike’s place was great! Awesome value, very convenient location.

We had a wonderful time at this location. Would have loved a more flexible check in time, but all in all, a great experience working with the host

Cindy place was amazing! It’s located right next to the Hyatt which we did not take advance of (but wish we did)! It was very easy to get to Mt. Rose to ski every day. The place was very clean, and it had cable tv. We totally want to come back here next year for New Years and hope they will host us again!

Laura was an incredible host. She responded promptly to texts and calls with the many questions I had. She was always very helpfull, very pleasant and accommodating. We were delighted with our stay.

The house is beautiful and provided exactly what we were looking for. Peaceful, great place for the kids to play in the Snow and full amenities. The house was great. It does have a lot of stairs and as the listing says was not child proof, kept me very active with my 1 yr old. Would go back again

This place was great for our family get together. Easy access to everything Donner Lake has to offer. 5 minutes to downtown Truckee. Enjoyed breakfast and dinner on the deck with a view of the lake. Well furnished with lots of amenities and responsive hosts. Definitely on our list of places to return to.

Second time staying here and it is still one of my top favorite Airbnb homes! Wonderful home great place to stay with my family for a ski trip. Definitely will plan another stay here! Home away from home

The house was big enough to accommodate the 5 of us with room to spare. We were comfortable and felt right at home. All was clean and functional, the location was great to get into South Lake Tahoe and all the ski resorts. We never made it into the backyard although the bocci court was calling to us- but it kept snowing. The house and grounds are very well laid out. We hope to come back to play bocci!

Lori’s place was great for me and my family. Super convenient, great location, especially if you’re making plans for Heavenly Village. It’s literally a 5 minute walk. Lots of stuff around in the heart of South Lake Tahoe. Close to many stores and restaurants/bars and grills. Lori herself was very sweet and friendly. Enjoyed all our time there for the week. Home is very clean, comfortable, and cozy. Home away from home for sure! Would definitely recommend and stay again! Mahalo Lori!

Great place and host was very responsive and helpful. The dishwasher wasn’t working which they told us about in advance, were very apologetic and offered us a discount. Everything else was perfect! Would definitely stay again!

The home was just as described and the host company did a great job in setting up the home with everything you might need. The kitchen had more than expected in the cupboards and linens and all the needs were in place. Location is great, in that, you can walk to the clubhouse and amenities if you wish. Great home.

Ingrid’s place was wonderful! Felt very homey and welcomed. The hot tub and backyard were so peaceful and beautiful! I would definitely recommend this place as it is also close to stores and food! Beds were also super comfy!
