Fabulous stay!

Condo and property exceeded our expectations! Steps to the water. Property was quiet, very well maintained and many options for lounging along the water. There os a well groomed sand beach onsite. We had a kayak delivered and paddled right out of the back of the condo. Only a short drive into Tahoe City for dining, shopping, marina and public beaches. Owner was very resopnsive and easy to work with. Highly recommend this rental.

Lovely condo apartment overlooking the lake

The apartment is exactly as described: a wonderful view over the lake, very spacious and functional layout. My husband, our 5yo son and I felt very comfortable during our 5-day visit. The apartment was very clean (for instance, a new sponge was provided by the kitchen sink for us to use, the soap dispensers were full in the 2 bathrooms). The linen and kitchen equipment are of great quality. The kitchen is very well stocked and pleasant to use. The host was very responsive when we needed to reach out to him. We felt that the host had really thought through how to give the best experience to renters. I wouldn’t hesitate to stay there again.

Communicative Host, Beautiful, Simple

Sean was communicative and readily available. Super great host. The kitchen was stoked with all the equipment you need. It sounds simple but having cutting scissors, can opener, ample bowls and silverware, etc. really can make a difference. The place and view is beautiful! And super close to town, grocery store, pubs and resorts. Highly recommend the Mediterranean restaurant. The master bed was SO comfy, and my partner and I also slept in the living room sofa bed to wake up to the lake sunrise, and that was nice as well. There’s also a cot in the closet if you needed a third sleeping spot. Heat worked great. The televisions don’t have cable, so be equipped with streaming service username and passwords! Parking is open and easy - at least when we went there was always parking right next to our place. There was the crazy snowstorm and the streets in the gated community were plowed very early so it didn’t interrupt our early treks to the ski resort. Will be returning.

5 star escape

We had a wonderful stay at this location. The view from the patio alone is worth the price of admission but the whole property is wonderful. Enjoyed the pool and the pickleball courts, and it's a super convenient location for everything in North Tahoe. Lovely, lovely, lovely.

Loved this property and it's location

Loved this property overall, for comfort, views, convenience to groceries, restaurants, beach, waterfront, etc. The owner was not only available when we needed him, he was pleasant and responsive. The photos shown of this property are quite accurate. Nice furnishings as well as a kitchen fully stocked with "nice" dishes, "nice" glassware, flatware and all the utensils needed, not to mention a full spice rack. We also fully enjoyed all the snacks and little extras this owner provides for his guests. I thought the floors could be a little cleaner, but overall, very very nice place. We would definitely rent this condo again.

Awesome view/location

We LOVED this property. the view is even better in person. Great lake access. Comfy bed. Kitchen stocked with most anything you'd need, even spices. Perfect for a couple of family of 4. Just north of Tahoe City. Host Sean was easy to communication with. You will feel like you are living in a tree house surrounded by pine and fir trees. Highly recommend

Breathtaking View

This was our first trip to Lake Tahoe and our choice of staying here definitely didn't disappoint us! Sitting on the patio every morning with coffee watching the sunset was astonishing. The grounds were all well kept up and condo was very clean with all amenities. Great location to Tahoe City south or North to Inclince Village. Thanks Sean for making this trip perfect!

Our new Tahoe favorite!

Can’t say enough good about our summer stay here!! Amazing VIEW 🤩! Very well stocked condo; comfortable bed & pillows, everything a kitchen needs, great location. Chinquapin is a wonderful Lake Tahoe community! Nearby Tahoe City has everything you could want during a Tahoe vacation. We went rafting down the Truckee River… always wanted to do that :) This condo is truly worth booking; you won’t be disappointed!! And the host is great too.
