The history of our family cabin.
The Runcie-Mason cabin has been in our family for six generations. The family acquired the land on the south shore of Lake Tahoe in 1912. J.H. Holmes, John Weislander and their families camped on the site. Our cabin was built in the mid 1920's. Tahoe Meadow Home Owners Association was formed in 1924 and is on the list of national historic preservation areas.

The original cabin consisted of a master bedroom, two lofts, living room, kitchen and two porches. The kitchen was located where part of the back porch is now. The outhouse was behind the garage. Until the late 1960's, we pumped our own water and enjoyed solar showers and lake baths. A new addition to our cabin was added in the early 1970's. This included another bedroom, living room, kitchen and a real bathroom. We still have our own well water. From the cabin, there is a beautiful view of the lake across the meadow. Although there have been many changes over the years, we keep these to a minimum. We enjoy the rustic, old time feel the cabin provides, as well as the many memories. The cabin was passed to the next generation in late 2010. It is currently owned by Tim Runcie, Sarah Sears, and Leslie Schlegel. We hope you enjoy your time at Lake Tahoe and we are glad we are able to share our family cabin with you.
