Endless relaxation and convenience await at this second-floor home away from home! Offering a well-equipped full kitchen with all the appliances needed, an inviting living room area with a comfortable sofa in front of a wood-burning fireplace and a large, wall-mounted flatscreen TV, and a prime location minutes away from the popular Lake Tahoe, this retreat won't disappoint. This studio is ideal for a solo escapade to the woods, a romantic trip with your significant other, or a thrilling adventure with a friend or relative. Take advantage of the shared outdoor pool for a refreshing splash during the summer months, or work on your service on the shared tennis court.

What's nearby:
This convenient escapade is located just one and a half miles from Tahoe City which boasts many restaurants, galleries, shops, and nightlife. For the skiers in the group, you are just six miles from exclusive resorts such as Homewood and eight miles to Squaw Valley or Alpine Meadows for skiing and snowboarding. Summer visitors will also have endless activities to try, including the many hiking and biking trails, and enjoy concerts at Commons Beach. Golfers will be thrilled by the close proximity to Tahoe City Golf Course, which is only one and a half miles away. Lake Tahoe is a short walk away, offering endless attractions and things to do no matter the season you decide to visit. Summertime brings fishing, boating, paddleboarding, biking, jetskiing, and more!

Things to know:
Please note that WiFi can be slow due to our being a mountain town. Lake Tahoe is a mountain town. Our internet signal is different than in big cities. When there is not a lot of people in town, the internet is high-speed. As the town fills up and people stream, the internet will ebb and flow.

This rental is located on floor 2.

Needs updating but overall good place

Overall the location is perfect and the unit satisfied our needs for the 2 nights however the place needs some serious renovating. Electrical cords everywhere, couldn’t figure out how to use the TV, fireplace, oven is so outdated it would not heat for a solid hour to make my kids pizza. A bit over priced for what the place offers but it did the job

Nice place!

Unit was comfortable and cozy. Granlibakken is nice and laid back for families wanting to relax. Couple of small issues (WiFi network changed, pool access card didn’t work) got addressed quickly by Vacasa/host. Overall, great base for a few days in Tahoe.

Ok

Check-in process created problems. Vacasa texted that the booking was confirmed days ahead, then only a free hours before checking texted from a different number that my identity needed to be verified or the booking wouldn’t be confirmed. The second text didn’t give any specifics about the reservation and seemed like phishing, but it was real and delayed our check in significantly. Only gave us one pool towel. Bar stools and carpets stained on arrival. Generally liked the area but in October seemed like the resort was minimally operating for big resort fees. Nice to have full kitchen abilities. Dishwasher is loudest I’ve ever heard though. No checkout instructions given.

Not what is advertised

- The pull out bed was broken and management knew it was because there was one already ordered. - Non working phone and Alexa. - Dirty tissue behind a nightstand. - Non working food processor sink. - Non working TV. The list goes on. The property and location were great but the place was not what was advertised. I am waiting to get my money back.

Needs a few small fixes but overall good!

If the AC was working/fire alarm had efficient battery, we would have enjoyed our stay much more. Overall it was a good place in a great location! Quiet at night, a bit dated interior but cozy overall.

Cozy little gem

This was such a perfect spot for our “Tour of Tahoe” vacation. The bed is super comfy. The location is just right for those who want to wander and explore Tahoe as well as visit Palisades and Alpine Meadows.

Ok Experience

The property itself was fine and in a cute, quiet community, but a lot of little things that were off about the studio added up. It's a little bit dated, and my partner who never gets allergies was dealing with sneezing, coughing, and congestion each morning when we woke up. The small heater in the corner took about 24 hours to heat to a comfortable temperature. The extra fees we were charged on completing the booking added almost $300 to the final price for a four night stay. The kitchen sink sprays everywhere when turned on. I tried contacting Vacasa with a question about the fireplace. A laminated note said that reception would provide one log a day for the fire place. We never got any logs, and I contacted Vacasa on who to ask, and they never responded. The booking site says that the community reception doens't service the studio, but notes around the apartment said to contact them in case of problems. It was unclear whether the reception serviced our studio or whether only Vacasa could help, but Vacasa never got back to me to answer my question. None of those things were huge issues to us, but all together they made for a so-so experience overall.

Ready when we got there- clean- few spots on rug- COZY- plenty big enough for the 2 of us. Kitchen nice and well stocked with essentials Only complaint is no firewood, even though we contacted vrbo and that is the main reason I booked this one so we could snuggle in front of the fire.

Return Visit

This was our second visit to 18A. We love this compact resident for our short getaways from home (2 hrs). It’s clean, comfortable and just the right amount of space for me and husband. We look forward to our next visit in the spring.
