Osprey Cottage 3, Cedar Crest, Lake Tahoe
Nestled within the enchanting ambiance of a "modern ski lodge," Osprey Cottage awaits as a romantic hideaway within Cedar Crest Cottages, a cherished vacation sanctuary tracing back to the 1930s. Recently revitalized, this charming abode graces the upper level of a two-story cottage, featuring a private covered porch, warm radiant heating, inviting wood-paneled walls, and lofty ceilings.
Conveniently located mere steps away from the communal fire pit, ensconced by majestic cedar trees, Osprey promises tranquil evenings following adventures on the slopes or the lake.
Step inside to discover a luminous, open-concept living space marrying rustic mountain charm with contemporary entertainment. Unwind with analog pleasures like board games at the dining table or a glass of wine on the porch, or indulge in modern conveniences with a smart soundbar and a generously sized TV, replete with cable and streaming capabilities. Adjacent to the entertainment hub, a commodious writer's desk seamlessly integrates into the room, offering functional workspace for extended stays.
Adjacent to the living area, a well-appointed kitchen awaits, boasting Bosch, GE, and Liebherr appliances, ideal for crafting delicious home-cooked meals. Whether it's an intimate dinner for two or a gathering of friends at the 4-seat dining table, culinary delights are easily achieved.
While Osprey Cottage is tailored for couples, the primary suite features a king-sized bed convertible into two extra-long twins upon request. Note that children must be over 12 to stay. Styled with an eclectic alpine-modern flair, the bedroom showcases tiled floors, a patterned accent wall, and a lavish en-suite bathroom with a deep tub shower. For added convenience, a separate powder room and private washer and dryer ensure a hassle-free stay. Throughout, blackout and sheer window coverings offer both privacy and peaceful slumber.

In winter, Homewood Mountain Resort is just a short drive away, with Olympic Valley's diverse terrain within reach.
