About this property

McKinney Cove by Hauserman Rentals

// This home is a short term rental only \\

**PETS PROHIBITED**

Overlooking the sparkling waters of Lake Tahoe’s West Shore, this beautiful home is a wonderful year-round retreat. In summer, the private McKinney Shores HOA beach provides easy access for boating and water fun. In winter, Homewood Mountain Resort is only a mile to the north for exciting skiing or snowboarding. In Spring and Fall, there are lots of nearby hikes and fun places to explore like Eagle Rock and Sugar Pine Point State Park.

If you prefer to stay home and relax, this is the place! Take in the gorgeous lake view while grilling up dinner on the deck or gather in the large upstairs loft for family game night or a movie on the huge flat screen TV.

Front door opens to the living room with plush sofa and leather easy chairs in front of a large stone hearth, gas fireplace. The adjacent dining table seats 8 with a view of the lake. Modern kitchen has all the supplies and conveniences you’ll need for fabulous meals. On this level, you’ll also find a lake view bedroom with Queen bed, TV and a door out to the deck; a second bedroom with Double/Full bed, TV and laundry facilities; and a full bathroom between the two bedrooms.

Upstairs there’s another Queen bedroom with lake view and door out to a balcony; second full bathroom; and large loft with large sectional sofa, TV, and desk / work space.

Stay at McKinney Cove and see why you’ll want to visit again in every season!

Close proximity to West Lake Blvd so SOME ROAD NOISE SHOULD BE EXPECTED.

Work trip with some relaxation

The home is very comfortable and cozy. Great view of the lake from almost every place in the house. Plenty of amenities throughout the home. Very clean. Its on the smaller side but plenty of room to stretch out and have your own space if you want. Will stay there again.

Million Dollar View and We Saw a Bear!

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was very clean. 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: We stayed in Tahoma for our son's 31st birthday and had a wonderful visit in Tahoma, Ca. On our first morning, we saw a bear enjoying his breakfast in an opening three doors down! The views from this home are fantastic and worth the price!

Cozy stay with view of lake

Overall great stay in location with close access to skiing. Only negatives were heat difference between upstairs and downstairs even with fans running. Closing upstairs bedroom door helped that room stay a little cooler, but upstairs was uncomfortabley warm. Kitchen could use more common utensils (spatulas, serrated knife). Otherwise everything was clean and matched description. Views of lake were great and had everything we really needed.

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was very clean. I was very happy with the location. I was more than satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: The home was beautiful, the view of Lake Tahoe extraordinary. The kitchen and living areas were very, very nice. The bathrooms were nice. The bedrooms were small... the closets were full and there was minimal place to put your clothing, etc....that was the only negative. Otherwise, great house I would recommend.

Complicated

This was a complicated one. Obviously the key feature was the deck. However, when we 20 minutes from arriving, the property manager called us and told us the owner just stained the deck. "Do not go on the deck!" Obviously we were very disappointed. However, the property manager worked with us to find a suitable replacement. Lisa was great. We would try this place again, but please hold the stain next time.

Tahoe stay

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was clean. I was very happy with the location. I was more than satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Great view of the lake! Cabin is pretty standard, nothing overly spectacular aside from the great view. It would have been nice for them to notify us that the cabin was ready for check in as I had to call. The main concern we had with our stay was the electric bear fence. Upon arrival, the bear fence had been turned off by the house cleaners and we were able to enter the property just fine, while also confirming the button was OFF on the unit.However, the next morning as we were leaving the house one of our toddlers accidentally touched the wires as they are hanging right next to the door and it zapped him. Thankfully he was okay, but it was very concerning as we had ensured everything was turned off upon arrival and did not turn the fence back on. Not sure if the rental company came by and turned it on without our knowledge or what, but huge safety concern especially if you’re traveling with young children.

2/10 Terrible

Hazy

Liked: Cleanliness, property conditions & facilities
Disliked: Communication
Communication was poor about the electric fence. We were told that the maids turned it off after cleaning. We took all the wires down with no problem so we assumed they had turned them off. For some reason they were sparking on the door frame and we were afraid they might cause a fire so I put them back up and got electrocuted twice. I have an arrhythmia and my heart went nuts all night. For the first hour after the shock my hands hurt horribly and clear up to my shoulder. I told the lady and she couldn't have cared less. For little things, the water in the downstairs bath didn't work and the window in the upstairs bath was clear so we had to rig up a curtain so that the world couldn't see us take a shower. There was dust in places that had to be building up for a long time. Easy to fix stuff and the place could easily be a 5 star.

Shocking Experience

Rating Details: The property manager was very unhelpful. The vacation rental was somewhat dirty. I was happy with the location. I was somewhat dissatisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I do not recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We called when we got to Tahoe and the lady said the info we needed was in our email. We told her we had no wifi. She gave us the # for the keys but didn't say a word about the electric gate. When we got there we found all the doors covered in electrified bungee cord. They didn't seem to be on so we disconnected them. The ones hanging at the front door kept arcing against the wall and we weren't sure if it could burn down the house or not so I reconnected them. The second to top one jolted me pretty good so I tried to throw the top one on quickly and got completely electrocuted. I have a heart arrhythmia and it went nuts all night. Also I was in pain for at least a half an hour in my hands and other places it jumped to. We checked on the internet and it said that a shock like that could give you a heart attack. I wanted to go to the hospital to see if I was ok but I was afraid to try to leave. I talked to the lady the next day and she said the info about the gate was in the contract. I reread it and it wasn't. She didn't seem to care at all about the pain and worry I went through. The place was great except for the water in the downstairs bathtub didn't work, the upstairs bath had clear windows that anyone could look in and the place didn't get a thorough dusting in awhile.We wanted to come back and stay for a week in June but now we plan to look elsewhere.

West Tahoe view

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was more than satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: The location of this cabin was great for our trip; close enough to all the things that we wanted to see and do while in Tahoe but away from busier South Lake Tahoe. It was a quiet neighborhood as well. The view was wonderful. There is some traffic noise from the street below but not enough to distract from the view. The kitchen was well appointed but could use some new pans and spatula. Cable was a bit tricky to figure out and service was spotty so if watching tv is important bringing your own streaming device might be handy. We had to be careful going up and down the stairs as they fairly steep. Overall great stay.

Expected more for the cost of the property rental

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was clean. I was more than happy with the location. I was satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I do not recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Location was great. Rental company had good communication. Property itself was just okay. Heating system was really not good. Even with the instructions that the rental company gave, the upper floor was super hot and lower floors quite chilly. The whole family had difficulty sleeping in these conditions.

Came to town for a wedding, but will definitelyReturn for a longer stay at some point.New to all the bear fences, but figured it out quickly. Maybe an info sheet on the best way to get the TVs to access cable tv... had to watch college football on my phone. No big deal though.

Great relaxing stay - nice cozy cottage

The four of us had a great time over Memorial Day weekend. Cottage is nice, fully equipped, clean and has an awesome view. Enough space for 4 adults. 3 rooms were great. Only thing better would have been a King bed for the master. It is a cottage, so expect some creaking and sound from use of the upstairs area. Kitchen, patio and living areas are great. Plenty of light, space and table space. Cleaning supplies were plentiful. Morning coffee on the patio is the I will most the most. Thank you for sharing your cottage with us.

We were able to get an early check-in which was very helpful. My sons did not lock their car doors, and some bears got into their cars!! No damage was done, but Tahoe bears will/can open unlocked car doors so be aware! This home was lovely and made our wedding stay very memorable. Thank-you!!

Great off season stay!

This place was so beautiful. The view of the lake was stunning. Waking up on the second floor felt like waking in a tree house. Mornings in the sunshine on the deck were beyond relaxing and were just what we all needed. We didn't find the sound from the road to be bothersome.

Incredible view and great house

The house is what you need for a summer vacation. Location is exceptional, house is just like the pictures, and the view is breathtaking. The power lines were a slight concern for obstructing the view but unless you look down to the road they are a non-factor. Quick responses from manager and hope to use again someday.
