We had a wonderful time. The house is located in a very quiet area with forest just beyond it. We walked to Chamber's landing beach/restaurant on Saturday evening and it was a great atmosphere. We had a great time. The local store with groceries and cafe is also very close by. The house itself is older but we had a great time. We were a party of 8 and everyone was comfortable. When we checked in, we saw the beds in 2 bedrooms weren't made. I sent a message through the app and the owner was quick to respond and offer to send the cleaning staff immediately. The owners are very responsive and worked quickly to resolve the issue. The kitchen was very well stocked and had everything we needed to cook our meals. Plenty of utensils and plates, bowls and cutlery. There was more than enough towels for all of us, and there were spare sheets for the beds.Overall, it was a very good stay. Thank you.

Perfect Winter Getaway

This is our go to vacation home when our family wants to spend a few days together at beautiful Lake Tahoe. We have stayed here a few times. The home is clean and comfortable (very comfy mattresses!). The location is at the end of the road so very quiet, with the forest and hiking trails right next to it. We made Thanksgiving dinner here and the kitchen had all the tools we needed for a successful meal.

Happy Place

We had booked this property for 33 days to get away from some of the heat and humidity of our hometown, New Orleans. As soon as we entered the house we knew we had made a great choice. We immediately felt at home. The property was extremely clean and the furniture was very nice and comfortable, For a rental, we were very surprised at how well it was stocked. We did not have to buy detergent, softner, dishwashing soap, etc. Communication with the owner and was quick and helpful. The location is great as it is at the end of a deadend street, so very quiet. A nice walking path is right at the edge of the property. We even got to see a couple of bears, one with her cub. The deck was our place for morning coffee and afternoon cocktails. We would definitely consider this property again I would not change anything about our visit, except that we could stay longer.

House was well equipped. Downside was that house had not been prepared for arrival (water and hot water not turned on and house could have used a good cleaning); however owner was very responsive, quickly, with giving direction to get back on track.

We loved everything about this property! First of all communication with the owner was outstanding, thank you! The place was beyond outstanding. Spacious, two fireplaces, very clean, great location, close to the ski resorts, games to play and movies to watch, walking trail from the cabin, BBQ on the deck, and all the appliances you need just like you were at home. The owner even created a guest book that is a Bible for everything in the area, food, sking, etc... We will definitely rent here again. Our family had the BEST time.

Peaceful retreat

My family had a lovely time staying in this home. It is in a quiet, well kept neighborhood. The kitchen was well appointed with everything we needed to make ourselves at home including coffee maker and hot water kettle. The beds and pillows were very comfortable and extra towels were available in the linen closet. The furniture was comfortable and in great condition. Ample lighting and heat for the chilly evenings. We especially enjoyed lunch on the front deck and star gazing at night. There’s a trail up the forest right next to the house where we enjoyed east hikes each day. It was such a beautiful peaceful weekend at this house. Easy and short drive to the main road and the lake shore Perfectly situated away from all the crazy crowds that summer weekends in Tahoe can bring.

Perfection at Lake Tahoe

Lake Tahoe is a perfect place and this house makes it even better. We loved our stay. The location is ideal...at the end of a street right off of the main road near beautiful walking trails. The house has three bedrooms and two baths with comfortable beds and plenty of linens. The kitchen is well-stocked with everything we needed. It was clean and had plenty of paper goods, a TV in every room with a gas fireplace and propane bbq. The owners were easily accessible and very helpful. I don't know how it could be improved.

This was the 2nd time we stayed at this home, and it sealed it for us. We will stay here every time we vacation at Lake Tahoe! The layout is great for privacy and communal living.

That we had to park one in front of the other. The only thing that was uncomfortable was thT it was very hot in there with all the fans on . I don't know if it was hotter than normal causing it. But would still come back.

This is at least the fifth time our family has stayed at this vacation home. It’s comfortable, has a well supplied kitchen, and is always clean. And the location is wonderful! It’s at the end of the road and is quite private, and right next to the forest with great hiking and sledding opportunities. We will be back.
