“Cedar Pines offers a different South Lake Tahoe experience: individual cottages mean real privacy, while still being close enough to Heavenly and local dining. I think families who want a self-catered base for outdoor activities will find it ideal. The pet-friendly policy is a definite advantage, too.”
