Cottage 3 — A Cozy, Private Retreat for Two (With Upgrade Options!) Located in the heart of South Lake Tahoe at the beloved Docs Cottages, this cottage is thoughtfully designed as the perfect getaway for couples or solo travelers seeking extra comfort and relaxation. Just steps from the lake, Heavenly Village, casinos, dining, and year-round entertainment — the location is unbeatable!
Whether you’re here for skiing, hiking, lake days, or just reconnecting in a peaceful space, it's Cottage 3!

The space
Designed for 2 — With Flexible Upgrades
Cottage 3 is our only cottage listed specifically for two guests, making it a wonderful choice for couples. However, if you’re traveling with children or an additional adult, upgrades are available — the living room couch transforms into a queen sleeper sofa to comfortably accommodate extra guests.

You can upgrade your stay to include up to two additional guests. Our recommendation: two children will fit very comfortably on the queen sleeper sofa, or it’s perfect for one adult. We’ve also welcomed two adults using the sleeper many times. Simply add the extra guests when booking—the additional guest fee will automatically adjust and be shown during checkout.

Other things to note
Welcome to Doc’s Cottages — A Historic Rustic Tahoe Retreat

Nestled directly behind Ceasars Republic Casino (formerly Harveys) on Stateline Avenue, Doc’s Cottages offers a rare blend of rustic charm, rich history, and unbeatable access to everything that makes Lake Tahoe magical.

A Storied Legacy

Established in 1929, four of the original cabins (numbers 2, 4, 7, and 8) remain standing—a testament to the enduring craftsmanship and heritage of the area.

In 1932, Vincent “Doc” Hughes, known affectionately as “Doc” for his service as a medic in WWI, acquired the property. What began as a personal haven for family and friends blossomed into Doc’s Place, a welcoming escape that the community still treasures.

Rustic Comfort Meets Modern Convenience

Each of the eight unique cottages embraces a cozy, cabin-like aesthetic with hardwood details and inviting spaces. Expect amenities tailored for both relaxation and functionality.

Unmatched Location & Access

Just steps from Heavenly Village, the Heavenly Mountain Gondola, and Lakeside Beach, Doc’s Cottages places you right at the center of Tahoe action. Spend your days skiing or hiking the slopes in winter or lounging lakeside in summer—and come home to a peaceful, tucked-away haven.

History in Every Corner

Staying here is more than just lodging—it’s a journey through time. Guests often marvel at how this charming enclave has hosted notable visitors over the decades, including rumored stays by Clark Gable and Carole Lombard.

As a recognized stop (#LP-2) on the Lakeside Park History Trail, your cottage is positioned in one of Tahoe’s oldest and most storied neighborhoods, rich with early 20th-century character and lore.

Why You’ll Love It Here

Imagine having a glass of wine in your cottage after a day of snowshoeing, parking right at your door, or firing up the BBQ and watching the sunset from your own deck. At Doc’s Cottages, you get the vibe of a rustic, historically significant getaway with the modern comforts and prime location bay lovers of Tahoe dream of.
