The hosts were very warm, welcoming, and responsive. They reached out to us after we booked and reminded us of all the expectations. The cabin was cozy, quiet, and located in a memorable area of Lake Tahoe. The only reason why we withheld a perfect 5 star is because of a minor issue with the thermostat. A slight issue that our hosts quickly helped resolve. This place is amazing! We will be back as soon as we can!

What an amazing cabin! Brian and Liz have everything set up for a wonderful, worry free time. We loved how cozy, modern and clean everything was. They even had a dog bed that our pup thoroughly enjoyed. We will be back!

Great Tahoe stay

We booked this for my partners surprise birthday. It was a perfect cabin that accommodated the families so well. The location was great to swimming beaches and boat rentals. We hiked and made the most of our stay. We brought our own culinary adventure and spent the evenings out on the deck under the stars. Highly recommend!!

Excellent spot!!

What a great place this lovely home was for our family. Brian was one of the best hosts we have ever had--he was so responsive and helpful. The home was perfect. My husband said it was one of his favorite vacation spots ever. The house was spotless, comfortable and a great location. The kitchen was well stocked for cooking, the beds were comfortable and it was a very short trip to Northstar for days on the slopes. 10 stars all around. Thank you!

Great Stay for a Northstar Weekend

Great home for a weekend stay in Tahoe! Our group of 8 (plus a four-legged friend) had a wonderful stay - plenty of space for the group and dog to be comfortable all weekend, easy parking in the driveway, and an ideal location for skiing/snowboarding at Northstar. Would definitely stay again!

Wonderful Ski Trip!

This Carnelian Bay house is a great find. It was about 15 minutes to Northstar. Perfect!! The house is very comfortable and has a great kitchen, washer and dryer. There is an area to hang your wet jackets and take off boots. There are also some great hikes near the house.
