Lake Trail Lodge
Welcome to The Lake Trail Lodge, by Modern Mountain Vacations.
This brand-new custom 4 bd/4.5 ba home with AC was built as a functional basecamp for families & adventurers. Inspired by the walkable connection to nature found in Lake Tahoe, this lodge connects you directly to the outdoors. Located just off Ski Run Blvd, Heavenly is just a 5-min drive away, and an easy walk to Lake Tahoe, local trails, and dining. It’s a clean, thoughtful space for responsible renters looking to experience Tahoe.
Lake Trail Lodge is a brand-new, 2,300 sq ft custom home built from the ground up as a serious basecamp for Tahoe. Four bedrooms, 4.5 baths, and thoughtfully designed spaces to sleep, fuel, and gear up so your group can hit the ground running from day one. Boasting air conditioning to beat the heat in the summer and a cozy heated tile floors and central heating for winter, Lake Trail Lodge is the ultimate spot to experience the best of Tahoe.
The open-concept main living area brings everyone together: a fully equipped chef's kitchen with quality appliances and everything you need to prep a real meal, a dining space built for gathering, and a comfortable living room to wind down after long days outside. Our kitchen isn't an afterthought. It’s the heart of our home and ready for everything from early-morning coffee before first chair at Heavenly Ski Resort to post-hike meals to refuel for the next day.
Each of the four bedrooms has its own bath (plus a shared half bath off the main living area), so whether you're traveling with family or splitting the house between two couples or a crew of friends, everyone has plenty of space and privacy.
What sets Lake Trail Lodge apart is its purpose-built infrastructure for active travel: dedicated ski and bike storage in the garage so your gear stays organized and protected, space to dry out after a powder day, and a smart layout that handles the logistical reality of getting 8 people out the door and onto the mountain.

Guests have full and exclusive access to the entire home, including all 4 bedrooms, 4.5 baths, the full kitchen, living and dining areas, garage and backyard outdoor space. The ski and bike storage area is fully available in the garage for your gear throughout your stay.
Self check-in with a smart lock makes arrival easy regardless of whenever you arrive to Tahoe!
Ski Run Blvd runs from the base of Heavenly all the way down to Lake Tahoe, and Lake Trail Lodge sits right on that line.
Heavenly is 5 minutes by car or free shuttle. Lake Tahoe, and Ski Run Marina are walkable. The Tahoe Rim Trail connection is close by, and mountain biking access is just minutes away via the Powerline trail. The Nevada border (and Stateline casinos) is minutes away. Most of the South Shore is within 30 minutes. You don't have to work hard to get anywhere from Lake Trail Lodge, which means more time doing the things you actually came here to do!
Lake Trail Lodge is located in the vibrant Ski Run Neighborhood of South Lake Tahoe. Free shuttles up to Heavenly Ski Resort are just steps away. A car is recommended for exploring further (Emerald Bay, Sierra-at-Tahoe, Kirkwood, Fallen Leaf Lake).
That said, you'll be surprised how much you can do on foot or by bike from the Lake Trail Lodge: the lake, the marina, the trail network, and several restaurants are all walkable. If you're a biker, the entire South Shore becomes a playground from your front door.
The South Tahoe Express runs between the area and Reno-Tahoe International Airport (RNO), and the Tahoe Transportation District runs local bus routes that connect major points on the South Shore. You can also use LakeLink (a free micro-transit option complete with its own app!) to navigate around the south shore of Lake Tahoe.

Don't just take our word for it—hear from families, groups, and travelers who've stayed with us.
What a beautiful house, crafted with detail and care (pictures do not do it justice). Viktoria and her team went above and beyond to create an inviting space. The home is in perfect condition with everything you could ask for (kitchen appliances, full spice rack, nice towels, welcome bottle of wine and specialty coffee, etc.), all within walking distance of South Lake Tahoe. It was a perfect stay for LDW, and we would happily come again. Thank you!

This house exceeded our expectations for a rental. Everything is very clean and new. The house is conveniently located just off Rte. 50, the main route through South Lake Tahoe. The house is spacious, with livingrooms upstairs and down, high ceilings, king bedrooms with bathrooms for each, and a private fenced back yard. The kitchen is fully equipped, and we found extras like coffee, tea bags, spices, and lots of glasses and coffee cups. The managers left us a home manual and were quick to respond to any questions. Wish we could have stayed longer!

This was easily one of our best house finds that we have stayed in, anywhere in the world! Spacious, modern, and well equipped new custom home, centrally located in South Lake Tahoe near parks, beaches, skiing, and restaurants. Plenty big and comfortable for at least three maybe four couples or two families to share. The hosts definitely know what they’re doing and have created a beautiful and relaxing space that is designed to celebrate the Tahoe environment (lovely tall ceilings with windows looking out to the treetops), and have spared no expense in the stylish furnishings and fixtures. Don’t be put off by the high rate, this is well worth every penny for a luxurious vacation!

Very beautiful home and the hosts were very friendly and helpful. They had all home supplies stocked for us and the home was very welcoming. We loved the back fire pit and our daughter loved all the games in the house. This may be one of the nicest houses we have stayed at. Must book!

Amazing rental experience in South Lake Tahoe!! My family stayed at Victoria’s home over a long weekend and it had all the amenities/comforts of a family home. Beds were comfortable and all area were spotless and as described in the listing. Would highly recommend for anyone looking for an A+ location and great hosts!

We stayed at Viktoria's with my wife, 2 kids and my in-laws. House was spacious and very comfortable. Central location in South Lake. There a couple restaurants and a coffee shop within walking distance. Equally great for summer of winter. Would definitely stay again.

The space was thoughtfully designed and beautifully furnished and felt modern yet homey. We were immediately impressed when we arrived, from the heated bathroom floors to the air conditioning (an unexpected luxury in Tahoe). It’s clear the hosts didn’t cut corners on the furniture or appliances, as everything felt premium. The home also accommodated all eight of our guests comfortably. Would book again!
