First Time to Tahoe

First time family to Tahoe. Location of home is perfect. Not far from everything. Home is beautiful. Spacious, wife and kids loved it. Even had a chance to see a bear walk right across the driveway! Scary! We were able to check in a few hours before, so that was awesome. Got to check out an hour later. So that helped with not having to rush. My family and I would stay here again!

Tahoe Family Trip 2024

This home was amazing. We all truly enjoyed staying at this gorgeous home for 2 nights. The kitchen was very well stocked and lots of seating for our whole family. We loved the heated floors throughout, all the upgrades and the fireplace. The location was perfect, close to Heavenly Village and Pioneer Trail, gave us easy access. They even had sleds in the garage for the kids. There was great hills behind the home to sled on also, we did not need to go else where. All the beds upstairs were very comfy, the only bed that was not comfortable was the down stairs full bed off the family room. I would definitely rent this home again and refer to friends. The host also was wonderful, she helped with many questions I had. Thank you !!

Cozy stay

Place was very clean and welcoming. Driveway and floors are heated and love that it’s in a cul de sac. The pots and pans definitely needed an upgrade. Other than that we loved our stay even though we had toCut it short dt weather.

Our 2024 family trip!

My 3 sons, their SO and I stayed in this home, it felt spacious, comfortable and clean. We enjoy everything about this home, the games, the warmth and specially the snow falling views from the floor to ceiling windows in the living room … Over all we had a great experience at this home.

Beautiful place close to everything

We stayed at this cabin for a snowboarding trip with the kiddos and friends. It was the perfect amount of space for the 8 of us who went. It kept us warm all night which was nice because I am always cold!! While I would definitely stay here again, there is some improvements that can be made. For a house that is for 10 guests, the hot water runs out fast. After a long day of snowboarding, 3 guests showered with really cold water. Also, if you use the hot tub in the main bedroom, you will definitely leave no hot water for anyone else. So this is something to keep in mind in the winter months. The beds were also not comfortable. This may be just a preference but they were extremely soft and we found ourselves tossing and turning all night. The bunk beds are also on the first floor which made me a little uneasy leaving the kids downstairs all by themselves. Again, this is just my preference. Others may find leaving the kids downstairs is better since they can make noise and not bother anyone else. Another thing to keep in mind is that if you plan to cook all your meals here like we did, bring all your seasonings. There is only cooking oil in the cabin. They provided one roll of napkins so bring extra if you think you will need it. There is also no hand soap and the dish soap for some reason doesn't lather at all. There is plenty of pots, pans, baking sheets (but no oven mitt so bring your own if you plan to bake), tupperware, and utensils to use. There was also plenty of toilet paper along with extra towels, linens, and blankets in the closet. The garage is very spacious and fits two cars. The floors in the garage and through out the cabin are also heated so that was nice. There is an entry space in the bottom floor where the garage is so we all left our shoes there. We actually didn't use the front door at all. Last thing to note is the wifi password is all lowercase NOT uppercase like the label on the tv stand states. The TV doesn't connect at all to the internet and couldn't watch basic cable either. All 4 of us adults tried to no avail which was frustrating. We fortunately took our nintendo switch so the kids kept themselves entertained with that since that connected to the wifi. The cabin also provides plenty of board games. All in all it is a great cabin, we all enjoyed it and would stay again. Thank you!

Bit of a letdown

THE GOOD: large, warm home in a quiet neighborhood that has comfortable beds and a washer and dryer. THE BAD: •Cleanliness: Empty alcohol cans were left in the backyard by previous guests and were not picked up by the cleaning crew before our arrival. Carpets are visibly dirty. Dining room table is stained and scratched. •Tina, the main contact person, is very slow to respond and is not very helpful. Don’t even bother. Just contact the owners. •Second floor sink was clogged when we arrived. A plumber had to come out and was at the house for hours fixing. •This house is NOT well stocked. We have stayed at many rental homes and there is always at least salt and pepper, maybe some oil, plastic wrap, etc. This house has NONE of that. You have to bring all consumables. Not enough toilet paper provided either. •Needs a guide book. Hardly any instructions are provided for using items in the home (TV, fireplaces, etc). We never got the primary bedroom fireplace to work, which was a bummer. TV is not connected to the network so we couldn’t mirror our phones or access our Netflix account. Wi-Fi password is hard to find and when you do find it, it is typed incorrectly (should be lowercase). •Cabinets all over the house are falling off their hinges. •Main front steps are not shoveled between renters and were unusable. We could only access the house through the garage. •Strange large open space between living room and kitchen. Could fit a pool table or something else fun and useful there. •Dining room table only seats 6 and is not big enough for guests of a four bedroom house. A new larger table would be smart to add.

Great house , just as described. However, the evolve contact person was no help. I texted her with a question before the trip, it took her 2 days to respond. I also called her with a question during the stay, no answer, no call back. Luckily evolve provided the contact info for the owners, who were very quick and very helpful with responses.

Beautiful Home

5-Star property, everything was wonderful. Loved the radiant heat in the floors. Was perfect and spacious for our kids and grandkids. The kitchen could use a few more things...wire whisk, baking sheets, pair of scissors, correct coffee filters, pancake griddle. Minor inconveniences that the owner could easily rectify. We would definitely book this beautiful home again.

Need A little update and more detail cleaning

The house is Great, I love the high ceiling and the big windows. It really gives value to the house, Overall the stay was ok. But if I may compare to other rental the we did, the house needed little more detailed cleaning (spider webs are notices, towels has smell on it, the garage is pretty unorganized an has leak close to the entrance, Door knobs has no locks (not sure if this is intended) thinking how can I use the restroom and someone might just go in... So yea that is some little complains we had. But like we said overall is OK stay. Thank you

Beautiful home in beautiful location!

We had a wonderful time at this home! Beautiful location. There were only a few items that needed repair. 1. A few lightbulbs out in various locations 2. Kitchen sink needs tightened/ repaired 3. Would be nice to have locks on bathroom doors! The home was as described and accommodated our group of 8 adults well.

Love the little decks!

The property is amazing! The kitchen, bathrooms, appliances, and furnishings are all top notch. The set up is perfect for hanging out with a small group out on one of the two little decks with a beautiful forest view or in the kitchen and living area. The place is awesome! The bonus for me was a keyless entry and exit. Loved my stay!

Anniversary celebration

This trip was for my husband and I to celebrate our 50 wedding anniversary with our two kids and our grandkids. The house was very nice and the beds were very comfortable. Every bedroom had a fan except one and it was unusually warm that week so one person had to be a little uncomfortable so one more fan would be a good thing. We did run out of toilet paper which I feel should be supplied. Or the renters should be told to bring their own. But it is a lovely house and we had a wonderful time seeing some of the wonderful things offered at Lake Tahoe. Good memories.
