Amazing West Lake Cabin

My group of 6 loved this property, especially the spacious and modern kitchen which was restaurant quality! The location is great, and would be even better on years with enough snow to ski Homewood, which is basically walking distance. Anyways, beautiful home, I would highly recommend it.

Perfect house in a great location

This house is immaculate and has everything you need for a vacation. I wish my own home was half this organized. Management company was great and responded quickly when I locked myself out on a holiday weekend. Enjoyed our days at Chambers beach and the ease of using the shuttle to get there. We will definitely be booking again!

Spacious Floorplan and Steaming Hot Tub

I visited for 3-nights with my parents, husband, and 10-year-old. My parents favorite thing about the stay was the large kitchen and BBQ grill on the back deck. My favorite thing was the steaming hot tub on the back deck, overlooking the lovely back lawn, surrounded by trees. It was very relaxing and at night I could look up at the stars. My dad also very much enjoyed sitting around the fancy fire table on the front deck.

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Our 5 night stay at Buffalo Lodge was perfect! From the houses location we were able to do day trips to just about all of the Lake Tahoe attractions. The house is located in a great spot to start bike rides either way on the bike path, to Squaw Valley or to Meeks Bay. Would definitely rent the house again if were came back to Tahoe!

Nice place with well-equipped kitchen

This is a solid 3 bedroom house. It has a big, well-equipped kitchen with great appliances. The picture show a small dining table, but it expands to seat 8-10 with chairs and two benches. It has a big two car garage, but the doors are short so we has to take our skis off to drive into the garage with a few inches of clearance over the rack on our BMW x5. It has a big driveway that can hold 4 cars. It has a small hot tub (4 seats) outside of the main bedroom, but not all the jets were working.

Chambers Landing Gem

Our family recently stayed here for a mid-week get-a-way to the west shore of Lake Tahoe. The property is well maintained with modern décor and appliances. The beds were comfortable and the setting was quiet private as the back yard is mainly open space and the house sits on a wooded corner lot two blocks from the highway. We enjoyed the close proximity and access to the private beach area at Chambers Landing. Although we did not use it, there is a shuttle that runs from the neighborhood over to the beach area. The hot tub was a wonderful addition and we enjoyed bbq on the back porch. While staying at Buffalo Lodge, we rented bikes at Homewood and road to Tahoe City, rented a boat in Tahoe city for the day, golfed at Tahoe City Course, and enjoyed several hikes and afternoons on the beach at Chambers Landing. Despite the bear gates and bear boxes there were no yogi's to bee seen this trip--just chipmunks and blue jays! The property management team was awesome in assisting us with retrieving a few items our daughter left behind. Reservation, pre-check-in, check-in and check-out could not have bee easier. Great mobile app and communication. We hope to return again!

It is perfectly located for access to Homewood for skiing, and I imagine it would be wonderful in the summer, as well. What's more, we left something at the house, and the management company went to the house, found it and sent it to us, which we so appreciated! Would definitely stay here again!

Nice kitchen for friends to enjoy cooking together. The house was good for 4 adults and many of the homes in the area are very nice. The only downside was a “party house” across the street that a local had warned us would be noisy. They definitely were.

Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We spent Thanksgiving 2020 in the Buffalo Lodge and had a great time. We were 5 (two couples). We found the lodge very comfortable. The rooms layout is smart and convenient. The kitchen is well equipped so we managed to have yummy meals every day. We used the grill as well. We were looking for an accommodation with a hot tub so we made the most of it.Highly recommended lodge! Location is convenient as it's 10 minutes away from Tahoe City, in a very quiet neighbourhood with great lake views.

Great spot - great location. Only complaint is that the rental company wanted to charge a crazy amount for an early check in - I understand with the snow there’s plowing to do but it seemed a little high for what we were asking. Otherwise - highly recommend.
