Downstairs at Yaya’s by the Lake features a spacious, open-concept layout that brings together the kitchen, dining, and living areas—ideal for group meals, game nights, or relaxing after a day at the lake or on the slopes. The kitchen is generously equipped with top-of-the-line appliances, ample counter space, two dining tables, and an adjacent island with additional seating. With dining space for up to 14 guests, it’s well-suited for everything from casual breakfasts to celebratory dinners. The warm, inviting great room features a large sectional, gas fireplace, and smart TV, offering a comfortable place to unwind after the day’s adventures.

The home has four bedrooms, three full bathrooms, and two decks that overlook a fully fenced backyard and the 8th hole of Old Brockway Golf Course. The course is bordered by natural forest, offering wide-open views and a peaceful, woodsy backdrop. One deck includes a propane grill and an outdoor dining table. The second deck is strung with bistro lighting and features a cozy lounge area with an outdoor sofa, two umbrellas for shade, and two small café tables with chairs—an ideal spot for morning coffee or an evening glass of wine.

The only downstairs bedroom is a second suite with a queen bed, full-size sleeper sofa, and an en-suite bathroom with a tub. It’s a comfortable choice for grandparents or guests who prefer ground-level access. This room also includes a desk and a dedicated workspace for remote work.

Upstairs features a king suite with heated bathroom floors, a queen bedroom, a shared bathroom, and a room with a twin-over-twin bunk and a twin daybed with pull-out trundle. Please note that the wood stove fireplace in the king suite is currently non-operational and is not available for guest use.

The layout is perfect families, groups, or couples traveling together. Additional features include fast Wi-Fi throughout, a propane BBQ grill, and a private driveway that accommodates up to four vehicles.

To make your stay more comfortable, we provide a welcome starter pack with essentials like coffee, tea, paper products, dish soap, laundry pods, and more. Bathrooms are thoughtfully stocked with full-size shampoo, conditioner, and body wash to help you feel at home.

Whether you're here to ski, enjoy a golf getaway, relax by the lake, or simply unwind, we hope your stay at Yaya’s is filled with joy, connection, and a little Tahoe magic. Settle in and soak it in—Yaya-style.

Guest Access

  • Guests have full access to the home, both decks, and the fully fenced backyard (with the exception of a few locked owner closets).

  • The garage is primarily used to store home amenities, but a compact vehicle may fit—clearance is tight and best suited for small cars only.

  • The driveway fits up to four vehicles and is plowed in winter. During snowstorms, guests may need to clear around their vehicles, as the driveway is plowed but not hand-shoveled. Please leave space between vehicles and the garage doors in winter, as there’s a built-in drainage system that can become icy. Take care when walking in this area, especially during snow or freezing temps.

  • Check-in is simple and contactless with a keyless smart lock.

  • There are a couple of small steps at the entrance, but the first floor is otherwise accessible and generally comfortable for older guests or those with limited mobility.

I cannot say enough great things about this home. we didn’t feel like we were in an Airbnb rental. We felt like we were staying in a friends home! From the linens to the extra blankets to the abundance, seating and dining areas and the best equipped kitchen, you can imagine!! Curling irons were present, cleaning supplies were present, paper towels were present! Yet the most amazing thing for us - as we were traveling with our three under two - grandchildren were the amenities for the Littles! Plates, cups, forks, little spoons, cribs with linens… just over the top ease of stay, and we truly felt at home! 10 out of 10 recommend!

This cabin was absolutely wonderful! There was plenty of space for our large family. We loved that everything was conveniently located: Kings beach and a nearby grocery store. We enjoyed the beautiful weather and our coffee outside the back deck in the morning while watching the golfers play. We also loved that there were bicycles available for our girls to ride around the neighborhood and to the beach. This place was exactly what we needed for a nice, peaceful, family getaway.
