Beautiful home with special touches

The home is as beautiful as it looks in the photos - inside and out. We didn't do much cooking, but there was a nice little supply of spices and basic cooking supplies available. The massage chair in the master bedroom was a very popular destination for everyone in our family. Very nice amenity! The only thing that I think could be improved is the mattresses. I'm not sure how young/old they are, but everyone in our group was a bit disappointed in the quality of sleep they got on their mattress. Overall, our weekend stay was very nice. Friendly, thorough, and attentive property management was also a plus.

We enjoyed our stay. House was as described, it had some games and puzzles, well stocked kitchen and plenty of room for our group. Great location. No fenced yard if you're bring a dog! But overall a great stay

Lovely stay!

Super friendly and helpful host. She was very organized, friendly and clear with all instructions, very accommodating and helpful with ask aspects of our vacation rental. The property was big and comfortable for the 5 of us. Would book this stay again if they’d have us.

Property was fine, but trip was marred by broken hot tub and poor property manager communication

Our group of 9 friends overall enjoyed our stay here, the property is spacious and cozy and in a nice neighborhood for skiing at heavenly. Only 1 bathroom downstairs when there are 3 bedrooms was a negative. The start of our trip was soured however by poor and rude communication from the host as well as (as we had to discover ourselves), a broken hot tub. The check-in process is pretty old school. Upon arrival, I was greeted by a fairly rude host who tried to chastise me repeatedly for missing earlier calls & voicemail. Overall tone was very aggressive/rude and was pretty shocking to arrive to. After the host left, I did the first thing I always do and immediately check the hot tub to make sure it was clean and hot. The location of the hot tub itself isn't great. As I checked, my heart sank -- it was very cold. When a whole group of people fly from across the country for a ski cabin weekend, the first thing you want to do is have a working hot tub. I hoped that this was just inconsiderate hosts by not ensuring the hot tub was turned on and hot for our arrival, and I set it to 104. I tried contacting the host, but no response. The next morning it was still cold. What followed was an extremely frustrating day trying to get into contact with the host to get it fixed. After long delays they finally acknowledged it was broken. There was no apology about it at all and they only said "at least your lights working and you have heat". We would never rent from these hosts again.

Not what we were expecting

This house is large and can easily accommodate up to 10 people. Bunk beds were a little unsafe as one of the top bed collapsed and fell through the slats. In all fairness the owner did come and repair the slats. Several pieces of cookware in bake where we’re dirty when pulled out of the cupboards. Downstairs bathroom sink drained very slowly. Thankfully we found a large bottle of Drano under the sink so this does not appear to be a new problem. There was a huge wad of hair in the drain in the downstairs shower that I was disgusted to find before I took my own shower. Looks like the “cleaners” didn’t do a good job. Throughout all this the owners make you meet them at the property for a “check in” process and sign a bunch of documents like “Code of Conduct” and take an extra security deposit at time of check in. This house is just “okay” and really not worth all this extra work and trouble.

Great place for a group ski weekend in Tahoe

The property was ideal for a group stay. The layout in which the living room and well-equipped kitchen are in one open space was perfect for a large group all spending time together. The house was very clean, the property manager was helpful and communicative, and the location was perfect for getting to South Lake.

A Beautiful House in a great neighborhood

We enjoyed our stay at this property. There is plenty of space to spread out and ample beds and bathrooms. There is a trailhead up the road where kids can sled and play in the snow. Having a garage was great too. It was nice to just pull into it and unpack the car. Nice place!

Family Vacation

We really enjoyed the property during our recent family vacation. Towels were an issue as they provide 1 towel per person and we did not locate any extra towels anywhere. Property lacked some of the extras that we have enjoyed on previous VRBO stays like family games, beach chairs, beach umbrella. For a property that accommodates 10, there is only dining seating for 6 and a table out on the deck for 2 with additional seating at island. Very small, useless area downstairs could use a sofa and television for kids to hang out.

Great House

The house was spacious and comfortable for our party of 8 adults in a good location and neighborhood close to great trails. I would definitely recommend this house. It is not golden brown outside as in the picture though, it is now a light wood color.

Space Galore!

First impression of the house was that it was very nice and on a quiet street. Empty space behind and across from the property. Easy check-in with Amy with a quick walk through. BIG beds but comfortable. The kitchen was excellent with lots of space. Plenty of towels, soap, blankets to use. Will definitely want to stay here again on our next trip!

Average Stay

I would say the stay was "average." Overall I am not going to overly complain, though for the money I spent to stay at the house, I would have expected a home in slightly better condition. According to the landlord, they had a rowdy crowd rent the house before us and they caused some damage. The damage was obvious, the blinds in the family were removed, a blind in the downstairs bedroom was broken, a toilet paper holder was broken in the master bedroom, the handle in the master bathroom bathtub was broken, the refrigerator didn't produce ice (which the manger said he would drop by with some, but never did) and there were smoke detectors removed (though according to the manager there were others in the home, which technically he was correct). Again, by themselves, I wouldn't complain, but many of these items can be easily fixed. I will be looking for another place the next time I head up to Tahoe.

Tahoe getaway

We had 10 people stay at this property. In general, everything was as expected and it was comfortable. A few things to note is that there is no place for a 10 people to sit together at a dining table. The table accommodates 6 people. The check out process was a bit more involved than my experience in that the renter has to strip down beds and empty all trash. However, the manager was responsive to text messages if there was anything needed. The place was very clean.

Great location, well managed property

We had a great stay with family over the busy Christmas-NewYears week. Charles and Amy have managed the property very well and are very responsive. The location is fantastic, really close to Heavenly and other activities in South Lake Tahoe. The living room and kitchen is open and is true to the pictures shown. It is large enough for 10 people to hang out, cook and be comfortable! Would love to come back!

Great Cabin in Fabulous Neighborhood

This cabin is located in a wonderful and quite neighborhood within walking distance to many hiking trails. There is plenty of room for three families including three small children. The owners are gracious enough to stock the shelves with plenty of family friendly games and toys for the little ones. The kitchen is also competently stocked with all of the pots, pans and dishes that you may need. We had a wonderful time hanging out in the hot tub that is by far one of the best we have seen in Tahoe, super clean. We couldn't have found a better cabin to spend our weekend in!

Excellent Weekend Getaway Home!

I would highly recommend going through this homeowner on any getaway to Tahoe. The house was spotless on arrival, all of the furniture and amenities were top notch and it is not far away from the mountain and casinos. We thoroughly enjoyed are stay at this property and will most certainly contact the owner when we return. Great home, location and people! Thanks!!!

Anniversary in Tahoe

This property was amazing. Our family stayed for a long weekend to celebrate our 25th anniversary. We enjoyed all the wonderful things to do at the property. Watching the sunset from the gazebo across the street was absolutely perfect. The house was clean and had everything we needed to enjoy our stay. We especially loved to hang out in our own private movie theater. The home sat on a big plot of land which offered us privacy while still being located about five minutes from the downtown heavenly area. When we arrived, the property managers were at the property and showed us around- this was a very nice touch. They were very responsive during our stay and we will definitely come back.
