Nestled on the northern border of Sugar Pine Point State Park, O’Brien’s Den is ideal for a small family or group looking for a quiet getaway. Maximum occupancy is 4. Completely updated, this adorable cabin has everything you’ll need to enjoy your Tahoe time: Comfy living room with gas fireplace and flat screen TV with cable or streaming on Hulu and Netflix, fully-equipped kitchen with dining table for 5, two Queen bedrooms, one with laundry facilities, and bathroom with shower and heated floor. Step out the back door to savor the majestic forest view.
