Very dusty on blinds and the smell of smoke or water damage

Enjoyed the views and slept like a rock however the stench was overwhelming even after the windows were opened. Not all homes get rented regularly (im guessing this is why) and i guess thats a blessing to have many choices however the smell of dead rodents or water damage was unfortunate.

Loved it 💕

This home is amazing, we loved the open concept, spending time in the kitchen cooking, enjoying drinks, and just having a good time. The bedroom on the first floor was great for my parents as there is a full bathroom right across, we and the kids were upstairs where everyone had their own bathroom. Easy access to everything and we can't wait to visit in the summer to stay on the deck, it's huge. Thank you Tahoe Signature Properties for a great stay!
