The Lazy Pines Lodge w/ Pool Table & BBQ Grill

Summary:

Fun for the WHOLE family! This incredible cabin sleeps 16 comfortably, and is minutes from downtown Shaver and a quick drive to China Peak Ski Resort.



The Space:

Lazy Pines sits just below downtown Shaver Lake in the charming Sierra Pines community, only a few miles from the Lake. This modern log cabin offers six spacious bedrooms and four bathrooms, an entertainment-filled game room with a pool table, and an expansive deck perfect for barbecues. Inside, you’ll find a warm and inviting open-concept living space complete with a cozy fireplace and all the modern comforts you could want.



Tucked at the end of a quiet road, Lazy Pines gives you room to roam in the summer and transforms into a picturesque winter wonderland when the snow falls. Step out the back French doors to play in the snow, sled, or toboggan, or follow the walking trail right off the game room to Musick Creek and the Ockenden horseshoe pits and picnic area. With regularly plowed roads, access is easy year-round.



This three-story cabin offers plenty of space for everyone—kids, teens, and adults—to unwind and enjoy. The six bedrooms include a primary suite with a king bed and private bath, plus five queen beds, two twins, and two full-size beds, providing comfortable accommodations for your entire group.



*Garage fridge is not available.

2. Guests & Pets: Maximum occupancy is 16. All guests must be reported. Pets are not allowed.



3. No Parties: No smoking, no parties, no loud music or excessive drinking. Quiet hours are 10 PM–7 AM. Violations may result in a $1,000 fine.



4. Respect the Home: Clean up after yourself, especially in outdoor spaces and shared amenities. Report any issues so we can fix them quickly.



5. Be a Good Neighbor: Don’t leave trash outside—use the dumpster provided. Park properly on the street and don’t block driveways or garages. Thank you!



Guest Access:

Guests have access to the whole cabin, deck space, and street parking.  The garage is short, and could fit a small car or a couple motorcycles, but not an SUV or truck.  Additional parking is located just a short walk away. Free WiFi, fresh linens and towels, fully stocked kitchen, washer and dryer are available. Guests have access to the community which includes a dumpster for trash, walking trails, and plenty of space in the woods to explore, sled, hike, and rock climb. Guests may use their own streaming sites to watch TV, or use a provided Netflix account.  Are you traveling for a church, company, or group retreat? There are other cabins within walking distance to this one available to rent in conjunction.  Let us know if you're interested and we'll help you coordinate your group's stay.



The Neighborhood:

Located right off Tollhouse Road, this cabin is very easy to access in any season. The Sierra Pines neighborhood is a community of large log cabins with modern amenities built in recent years. This cabin is special because it sits at the end of the road, with no other cabin beyond it, providing gorgeous uninterrupted views and easy access to snow trails and adventure right from your back door. Just a few miles south downtown, you're out of the the hustle and bustle during busy weekends, but close enough enjoy restaurants, grocery stores, shops, and watersports with just a quick drive. Even though the roads are plowed, you will need tire chains in the winter.



Getting Around:

We suggest using your own vehicle to get around.  4 wheel drive and tire chains are strongly encouraged during winter months, and may be required by California Highway Patrol when there's snow in the forecast.



Other Things to Note:

* Garage fridge is not available (not operational).

Wonderful cabin, but could use some improvement in amenities.

This is a lovely, spacious and clean cabin in a great location. Great layout for large groups and very easy access to the town of Shaver Lake. The host was very responsive and available to help with questions and a few small issues we had. I'd definitely book this cabin again and we had a great stay!

Lousy management

Wet carpets in 2 bedrooms, smoke detector needed batteries, it kept beeping, very annoying. No help from management. Discount should have been offered.

Disappointing

House was spacious and nicely decorated but definitely in need of some maintenance. It was surface clean but definitely in need of a proper deep clean. The house smelled strongly of febreeze and the sofa, beds and pillows all smelled like they had been doused in Febreze,. It was overpowering. The fridge didn’t have a working light and the ice maker did not work. There were no ice trays provided. If we had have known, we would’ve brought ice. The heater on the bottom floor beeped every few minutes all night long. Property management was attentive when we complained and sent out a handyman. Apparently the filters were filthy and needed to be cleaned. We went to use the grill on our first night only to discover that it was covered in old food and grease. It was very unsanitary and unusable. This could be a nice rental with some better maintenance. But for the price, I would not consider staying here again.

Horrible Experience both Customer Service and Property

We recently stayed at Lazy Pines Lodge in Shaver Lake from July 2–5 and were extremely disappointed with our experience.From the moment we walked in, the home did not appear clean—there was trash in several rooms, only one roll of toilet paper per bathroom, no dish soap, no trash bags, and a general lack of basic kitchen essentials like foil or seasonings. The garage refrigerator was broken, which forced us to store food in ice chests. One of our children is Type 1 diabetic, and his medication had to be moved from the broken fridge, which also had ants inside.There were no extra towels or sheets, and the dryer didn’t work. The washer had wet towels and sheets left inside, making the garage smell like mildew. The return air vent was filthy—we had to replace the filter ourselves just to get the fan running better. In the primary bedroom, the cold water in one sink didn’t work because the faucet was broken. There were also spider webs and spiders throughout the downstairs.When we reached out to the management company (Guest Equity), we were advised to hang dry towels and told a handyman would stop by. We specifically requested that he come when we were home, but he entered without our knowledge while our personal belongings were there—completely unacceptable.For the amount charged (including a hefty cleaning fee), this property fell far below expectations. We were on a family vacation and expected a clean, well-maintained home with

Rough around the edges.

Property looked clean, stylish and well kept in the listing but was not particularly clean and had a surprising amount of wear and tear. The light in the fridge did not work, the ice maker did not work and there were no ice trays provided. The tea kettle was broken and did not close. All of the upholstery had been sprayed heavily with febreze and it was VERY overpowering. It left the feeling of uncleanliness being masked with air freshener. Even the bed linens smelled of air freshener. We intended to BBQ but the grill was extremely unsanitary. It was covered in grease and bits of old food. It clearly has not been cleaned in some time. The heater in the downstairs area beeped every few minutes and all night on our first night making it quite difficult to sleep. The alarm indicated that the filters needed to be changed. Property management was very responsive and sent a handyman to fix it. He discovered that the filters had not been changed in a long time and were filthy. There were wet sheets in the washing machine that had been left and damp sheets in the dryer.This property is fine but for the price, it should be cleaner better maintained.
