Great House But Be Extremely Aware of the Neighbor

The arrival to the property started off with an ambush from the neighbor across the street. In order to back into the driveway of the rental property we had to drive up on a snow embankment across the street that was at the entrance to an access point of a conservancy lot that the neighbor uses for vehicle storage. He screamed at us and threw stuff at our car, and exclaimed that we were on private property. After further investigation, it turns out were not on private property, we were still within the constraints of the road, but because lines are invisible in the snow, it was an assumption on his part. It was an extremely unnerving experience and we were on egg shells with him our entire stay. In addition to this the refrigerator was broken, it appeared that it hadn't been functional in a while. The rental company had a mini fridge there upon arrival, but that was not enough, so we had to contact them and ask for more, so they ended up bringing 2 additional mini fridges. I would expect for a property that commands this type of money there would be a contingency plan to repair or replace broken appliances prior to guest arrival. Aside from those two overwhelmingly negative situations the house itself was pleasant. The sauna and game room were definitely enjoyable and the beds were comfortable. But for us, it's not worth dealing with that neighbor to return to the property ever again, life is too short to stress over narrow minded bullies; especially if you have to pay for it

Perfect start to 2025 in Tahoe City!

We had a wonderful time staying at this property from Jan 1-4th. The house is in a relatively convenient location for skiing in Palisades. The roads were plowed promptly during during a storm that came through, so we never had any issues getting to the house or leaving from it. The kitchen was well appointed, making it easy to home cook meals for our group. We enjoyed hanging out around the upstairs dining table and down in the game room. One small note (not a problem, but may be relevant to some groups) - the bedroom with the queen bed has the door to access the garage in it. So, we were frequently walking through that room.

Beautiful Stay in Tahoe City

We really enjoyed our stay in this home. It is lovely, and sits in a nice neighborhood close to the Lake. The location was a few minutes from the restaurants and shops of Tahoe City, but very quiet. We were surprised by the bear wires, given that we had never traveled to the area before, but got used to them quickly. I would happily recommend this home to others.

Beautiful home and very quiet neighborhood

Beautiful home in very quiet neighborhood. Located quite high up the side of a mountain area. Home had all the amenities we could possibly want however, the TV Wi-Fi was a bit spotty. Property management was very very helpful. I thank them for their hospitality. We would definitely stay in this home again of course it’s in one of the most beautiful places in the world, Lake Tahoe.

Awesome Tahoe Rental

We had an incredible stay! The house was awesome for our family of 5, and my parents joined us for a couple of days. Great location. The Sauna and pool table were fantastic. The bedrooms were great, and the beds were comfy. The dining area fit our family and my brother's family very nicely. The only slight drawback was the Smart TV in the main area was a bit dated, and didn't have Disney or Apple TV app options for the kids. Otherwise, everything was top-notch. Would happily stay there again.

We enjoyed our time together at this home. It met our expectations and needs for a family vacation. We would certainly stay there again. Great location to the activities we wanted to do. Quiet neighborhood. The roads were even kept clean with all the snow we had. Communication with rental company was spot on. Perfect memories were made.

Loved our stay!!!

We really appreciated staying in this beautiful and cozy home, very well situated, not a far drive from skiing at Palisades. Everything was terrific and very comfortable. This home is well appointed and there was plenty of space for our family of five. It was a welcoming place to return to after our days of skiing. Our young adults loved the pool table and sauna. Views of the pines were spectacular from the many windows, especially after the snow storm. We would recommend this home to any of our friends!

50+ Inches of Snow - no problem

Lovely stay during the extreme snow event of 2023. This home is well up the mountain from the lake but with many homes in that area. While 4 wheel drive is recommended in the winter the roads and driveway were incrediblely well maintained. The owner makes the garage available so our cars were warm and dry. The home very well equiped and maintained and quite roomy. Great for family groups will a great play room for the kids. The kitchen and living room were also great and comportable for us adults. Thank you to the hosts and rental service company who present and responsive to our calls.

House was juat what we needed for 2 grandparents, 2 parents, 3 young ones in bunkbeds. Our only problem was all the unleashed dogs. 1, known as Merlin, chased and scared my little granddaughter. Not happy about all the dogs running loose. Besides that, it was a wonderful vacation home.

Good amenities

Good location and has good amenities overall. We had a good time! Some things that we realized after booking: 1. There’s a separate check in process that requires downloading a separate app 2. I wish the listing explained what cleaning items are covered and what not on Vrbo so guests know what to expect upfront. We paid for hundreds for cleaning fee but were still requested doing quite some cleaning per rental instructions. This includes running the first load of bed sheets. 3. It’s hard to know if the blankets on the sofas and the beds are cleaned. 4. One of the bedrooms is right next to the garage which we didn’t realize. People would need to walk through the bedroom to get to public area to avoid heavy snow at the front door. That said we still had a good weekend at the rental. We quite enjoyed the sauna and playing pool.

Winter Wonderland

Fabulous home! Great location. We especially loved the kitchen, pool table, games and sauna. Crazy the amount of snow right now. I was bummed to hear there was a neighbor complaint about using the driveway to turn around. We’re a very respectful family, so that was odd. I’m guessing there’s a history there. That doesn’t take away from our wonderful experience there though. Thank you again!
