Property was as described and in good order. Even the hot tub and sauna worked :) Great location and close proximity to Northstar and Mt. Rose skiing. Communication was easy and accurate. Our host graciously allowed us some additional time at check out due to a snow storm the day before.

Plenty to do….

We rented place to go on our boat but a storm ruined those plans so we had to make due just hanging around the house. We were able to play bocce ball, go on hikes right up the street with views of the lake, go in hot tub, go in sauna and watch movies. I’m glad the house had so much to offer since I had kids that were bummed due to rain all weekend. Great kids cave on lower level for them to hang.

Good location; non-working amenities

The property is in a quiet neighborhood and on paper it looks like a perfect summer retreat for a family vacation. However upon arrival we found the hot tub to be half full, green and it stunk of sewage. The owner said that if his hot tub serviceman could not come he would not call another. I actually spoke with the hot tub serviceman who told me that the owner called him 2 days prior to our arrival to schedule a cleaning but he declined the job as he was too busy. We could not get the sauna to heat up despite following the instructions in the home's binder precisely. The home felt dusty as though no one had occupied it in months (as evidenced by dead moths and spider webs in the bathrooms). On the plus side everything in the kitchen worked, the house is very spacious, and the bocce ball court and fire pits were a lot of fun.

Winter wonderland ❄️

We chose this house for our family vacation. There was plenty of room for us all to be comfortable. 6 adults, 2 kids,a toddler & an infant. Beds with down duvets were great! Little did we know that it was going to be the snow storm of 2023! Roads were closed to get to the house. We arrived a day late. Although, one of our sons with 2 kids were able to get there on night 1. We found that the house had almost everything we needed. Nice quiet neighborhood. A great slope for sledding next to the house. Grocery store close by. Where we could buy firewood for the beautiful fireplace. The house is in need of a little maintenance. I let the host know of the few concerns. He was always quick to respond to us. By day 3, we were “snowed in” and luckily the host was able to let us stay until we were safe to leave. Roads & driveway were plowed as needed. Washer & dryer were a plus. The house provided a great place to stay and we enjoyed it.

Great Family Home

The home accommodated all our needs & fun. A bed for everyone, a nice fire place, a large dinning table to have all our family eat together & the kitchen had everything we needed. The owner was great. The day we were going to travel it was snowing a lot & he allowed us to adjust our stay by a day so we didn't have to travel in all that snow falling. Overall it was a great experience. Thank you

Nice Home, Nice Area

House was nice size and convenient to nearby Kings Beach, grocery store, Truckee and other nearby beaches. However the house was listed with 8 beds and only 7 were in the house. Neighbor dogs were everywhere and kept coming into our house if door was open or on our patio causing problems for our dog. House was a little outdated with carpet and furnishings. Some parts felt grimy.

Very dirty - DO NOT RENT!!!

We walked in and noticed the kitchen was not clean. Meat/chicken drippings in drawer in fridge and all shelves in fridge were a dirty, sticky mess. There was food partials still in sink. Stove was a slimy sticky mess. Counter tops and dining table had crumbs all over it. Carpets were not vacuumed and floors still had crumbs all over it. Hot tub was very cloudy and dirty. Sheets had stains. I have pictures to prove all of this!! DO NOT LET PICTURE OF HOUSE FOOL YOU!!!

Great neighborhood and house for a family

We enjoyed our stay here in Tahoe Vista. We were 4 adults and 4 kids under age 8. Good space for all of us and it was a great house for kids - there's an extra room with beds and a TV for them to hang out in. Not a lot of kids games or activities so be sure to bring them. The location was good. Quiet neighborhood and nice neighbors- but leave early if you're going to ski, traffic can get bad! Michael was very responsive during our stay when we had some questions. We were disappointed that the hot tub was not working and with the storm and covid, he couldn't get anyone out to fix it. He did refund a small amount for the inconvenience. The microwave didn't work in the kitchen and there could be more spices - bring basics if you need them to cook! Otherwise pretty stocked. Overall, we had a nice stay here and would recommend to others.

About the host

Hosted by Michael and the TCC team

Now retired and loving it. We have owned this place for over 20 years. We offer it for rent when we are not using it ourselves. It is a wonderful home and well maintained.

Why they chose this property

We love being up in the Sierra mountains and especially Lake Tahoe in the summer. Our place is perfectly located in a quiet residential neighborhood close to Northstar Resort, Kings Beach (Safeway store) with hiking/biking trails accessible from the neighborhood. This property has a large backyard with professional Bocce Ball court and it is less than 50 yards from Lake Tahoe conservancy land that is free of residential houses almost all the way down to Lake Tahoe.

What makes this property unique

This is a modern home with vaulted ceilings and unique architechural details. Natural light fills the house and there are views of trees in almost every direction.
For your entertaining enjoyment there are 2 large outdoor decks (one off the living room and one off the masterbedroom) and a backyard patio. There is both propane gas grills and charcoal BBQ for outdoor cooking. Enjoy a fun game of bocce ballon a professional bocce ball court in the backyard.

For relaxing you have choices, a finnish hot sauna and outdoor 6 person hot tub. On cool mornings you can enjoy the warmth of heated stone flooring in either the master or main bath. Great location for fine dining and lake access, Kings Beach is the best beach at the Lake. The best dog beach is at Kayak beach just East of Gar Woods.
