Family Snow Trip 2025

We took our grown children and grandsons for a 5 night stay at Lazy Bear. The house was beautiful and perfect, plenty of room for everyone to have their own space . Great location to snow park and Boreal. However we did have a few issues that needed attention luckily my husband could make all the repairs . We had a difficult time coresponding with Bethany from Tahoe rentals. The hot water faucet was broken in the master suite, the air hockey table was broken and duct taped together. The hot tub had three jets floating around in it. We never received the towels for the hot tub which was fine . The shower in the other master suite wouldn’t drain.I would hope the rental company would walk through the house prior to guests checking in or when they arrive. There were a few other minor issues but my husband did fix everything so we had a wonderful stay. We loved being able to cook and bbq and all be together in this beautiful home . We did contact Bethany but took 3 days for her to reply. Also none of our issues were considered an emergency by their house book. I did contact them again after we were home but they was not any real resolution. If you stay and have any issues I suggest you contact Heather as she is most helpful and professional. All in all we did love this house very much and would recommend it to families to all be together and enjoy a vacation as we all did .

Would Go There Again

The view of the lake through the trees was beautiful and the house open and easy to be in. The kids loved the lawn in the back and we all had a great time.

excellent holiday stay at Lazy Bear Lodge

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 family of 8 had a wonderful holiday stay at Lazy Bear lodge. The five bedroom home was perfect for us. I have rented homes all over the world and own a vacation home. Lazy Bear Lodge had the most well equipped kitchen I have ever been to with everything needed to make any gourmet cook happy. The location is very quiet and you can see a glimpse of Lake Tahoe through the trees on the back deck. We love Homewood and recommend Sunnyside and Swiss Restaurant for dinner. Winter or summer Lazy Bear Lodge would make every family happy.

Beautiful House, Great Location

The house was absolutely perfect and well maintained. We had 4 couples who stayed and each had our own room and bathroom. The house was spacious enough that we didn't feel like we were on top of each other. The inside was clean and outdoors was well groomed and maintained. Everything was easy to get to and overall we enjoyed our stay. Would highly recommend.

This house will be the perfect rental for summer

Rating Details: The property manager was adequately helpful. The vacation rental was very 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: This house would be great house for the summer but not so much for the winter time. We stayed here in the winter time, it’s big house with such a small hot water heater. We ran out of hot water every time when kids took a bath. And hard to access the back yard in the winter time. A good location with a walking distance to lake.

Thanksgiving Family gathering

Great place for families. Nice beds and plenty of bathrooms. Close to grocery stores. Snow park right down the street, grand kids love sledding and ice skating in Squaw valley. (I refuse to call it palisades). Town of Truckee a short beautiful drive away with a kid zone museum and for some California history, the Donner memorial. We had snow but no skiing yet…. Kitchen was a little smaller then we thought but no big. Would like to return in summer to enjoy the beautiful backyard. Champagne and grand kids, everything I look for in a thanksgiving getaway! Everyone had a great time.
