The Abbe Cabin

Since 1974, the Abbe family has welcomed friends to this relaxing hideaway on the shores of Lake Tahoe.

Comfortable, classic and convenient, with beautiful views of the water and mountains, the Abbe Cabin compound is five miles north of Tahoe City on the shore of Carnelian Bay.

Old Tahoe Charm

The lakefront compound offers three separate cabins: the Lakeside, the Lookout, and the Roadhouse. All three cabins have views of Tahoe. The compound sleeps 8 to 10 guests total.

Families or groups of friends are able to enjoy privacy and come together at Lakeside for a meal, drinks on the deck, or games by the fire. During the summer, swim or kayak from the shore, picnic under the pines or enjoy a scenic quarter-mile walk to the public pier and beach at Gar Woods. Relax with a book on our large front deck and fire up the gas grill for a feast.

In the winter, the Abbe Cabin is ideally situated for skiers and boarders as it's only a 15-minute drive to Northstar at Tahoe, 25 minutes to Palisades. Nordic skiers can be on groomed trails after a five-minute drive to the Tahoe X/C Ski Area.
