Liked: Cleanliness, communication, location, listing accuracy
The was a great accommodation for our quick trip to Tahoe. Check in was challenging and delayed because of the complicated entry process that required a long passcode be entered in a poorly lighted hallway. The garage door also keep hanging when closing and took several attempts to get it to close properly. They have made great progress in removing the cigarette smoke smell from the house but it is still present in the master bedroom and on the stair case outside. One guest found the shower curtains old and stained.The fact that everything in on the same floor at the top of the stairs was a plus. We enjoyed watching the deer outside in the mornings. It was very quiet and the smell of the forest outside was great.

Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication
The place was mostly good. However we booked the place based on the amenities and it turns out most of the amenities including the hot tub and pool are not accessible during certain dates. This was not expressively conveyed in the property description and it seems that was done to confuse people who were unaware of the meaning of the local “STR” rules. Local rules reserve amenities for local residents which is fair and acceptable but this was not explained by the property in detail. This left us with a feeling this was done to trick people to book this property during holiday/blackout weekends without understanding that we would not be able to access the amenities as described by the property. We will not be booking with this management group again as they could not offer us any compensation or explanation of why they listed the property this way. I also would like to warn anyone booking with this group in this area that the “STR” rules restricts your amenity access and the property will not clarify this prior to arriving.
