About this property

Lake Escape - Beautiful Lakefront, Pier, Wood Fireplace, Private Hot Tub

Enjoy lakefront living at a fraction of the price from this quaint lakeside vacation cabin right on the water in Tahoe Vista. This location is phenomenal with 100 feet of premier golden sand beach and local amenities within walking distance as well.

Take advantage of the many surrounding natural amenities with easy access to world-class skiing, remarkable mountain biking, hiking and swimming. Most notably, Lake Tahoe resides out your front door, within steps of Moon Dunes Beach. Bask in the north shore sunlight all day, year round, from the beach, or the deck.

ABOUT THE AREA
Just west of Kings Beach and running right along the lake, Tahoe Vista is a favorite of outdoor enthusiasts. For lake lovers, kayaking from one of several hidden beaches, or a motorized excursion from the new Tahoe Vista Recreation Area boat launch facility are two Tahoe Vista treats. For landlubbers, the nearby Regional Park sports year-round trail heads for mountain biking, snowshoeing and cross-country skiing, a disc golf course, nature trails, and sweet swing sets.

In the winter, you are less than fifteen minutes from Northstar California. There, enjoy access to almost 100 trails and over 3,000 skiable acres, impeccable grooming, incredible tree skiing and enough variety to challenge every level of skier. Take advantage of world class terrain parks, cross country skiing, a youth Adventure Park, and a 9000 square foot ice rink surrounded by fire pits and a rink side bar.

Weekend at Lakeside Escape
The location on the lake, the deck with lake views and beauty of the area rate a 5/5. There is a beach close by and chairs on the end of the pier. We enjoyed sitting in the hot tub and watching the sunrise. The hot tub is not as big as it appears in the picture but seated 4 adults. The padlock is still broken as noted in earlier reviews. The oven in the kitchen needs repair and did not hold temperature. We have stayed in other VRBO rentals in tourist areas that had more amenities (e.g. towels for hot tub, some firewood, more kitchen supplies), The lock box is not easy to use, the outside umbrella was broken and taped so that it could not be tilted toward the sun. The drawers in chest in downstairs bedroom were missing rails to hold drawers in place. Hinge on corner kitchen cupboard is broken. Interior of home could benefit from standard maintenance (spackle, paint). The instructions folder notified us that if the garbage bins became over-full, we would be charged for the disposal overage. We had room to place our trash but given that there are 5 or so other properties in the complex this was concerning. The property management company responded to phone calls and was helpful. They were prompt with e-mails regarding arrival. Overall our family had a lovely weekend, but the appearance of these minor deficiencies and defects can distract from the beauty of the location. Thus our overall rating is 4/5 stars.

Lakeside Dream
My group was so amazed. A deck overlooking the lake. A private pier to enjoy. Enough rooms for a large party to stay comfortably, and everything you need, like Safeway, a couple minutes away. And, the Nevada border just a few minutes further so if you like...all the gambling you want to do.

It may be a little dated but the location is excellent. Great views, private pier, and even a private walkway to the public beach. Double deep parking spot. Nearby marina. If you're going to bring or rent a boat, this is a great spot.

Location and View Spectacular
Overall you can't beat the view or location of this property. I will say this property could use a little updating given the price point, dated furnishings and bedding. Kitchen not stocked with things like tin foil and saran wrap. Hair dryer in one of th bathrooms did not work just little things that could be improved to make this an even better experience. We had a great time and loved the pier and beach access even in the winter. Will definitely return.

Beautiful location
Beautiful location. I love the dock. The window in the house is big and beautiful, great views. AC worked well. Washing machine works well, dryer is slow (lots of clothes laundered on our trip). Property managers are responsive. Impossible to open lock on hot tub - needs to be replaced. Bed frame on lower bed is loose and noisy if you shift in the bed. Overall, very nice.

Great location, needs some work
A good rental for a group. Beautiful view of Lake Tahoe right off the living room. Nice beds, plenty of towels. We found a number of things broken or in need of replacement (nothing major) and the place seemed a bit lacking in TLC.

4/10 Poor

Lack of Compassion
I understand that businesses need to make money and have common sense policies in place to protect their business, however there should always be room for exceptions or at the very least, compassion. I booked a 3 night stay at a 4 bedroom Tahoe home to celebrate my birthday with my husband and our three closest couple friends. Two couples came down with COVID and the company allowed us to reschedule the reservation once (according to the contract I signed and paid extra money for the privilege of flexibility in the case of an unexpected obstacle). We selected another date a few weeks after the original and then my husband had an accident and had to have emergency spinal surgery. I called the company again and explained what was going on and was told flatly that the policy clearly is that I can only reschedule our stay once and they would not let me reschedule again. The person offered no apology and I said goodbye through tears on the phone. Only one couple was able to enjoy the rental as the other three remained behind with me to support my husband as he went in for surgery. I will never rent with this heartless company again.

Great Location
My family and I had a fantastic stay at the Lakeside Escape. Things that were great: location, the house itself had great spots for relaxation inside and out, comfortable beds, amenities of a full kitchen, and washer/dryer. It was truly a lovely place to stay. One parking space is a bummer but it worked out with the street parking. The grocery store is very close which also was very convenient. Things that weren't so great: all of the door knobs and windows. The janky door knobs and windows were a great annoyance and kind of a safety issue. You had to manipulate the inside door knobs quite a bit to get them to lock. The locks on several of the windows were in some way broken or extremely difficult to maneuver. Locking the front door when you leave is difficult. The bottom locks just fine but we could never get the top dead bolt to lock from the outside because the top half of the door would never get flush to the door jam. I bring up the safety issue because you're instructed to secure all the windows and doors for bear safety but in this house it is somewhat difficult to do. This wouldn't be such a big deal had there not been bears living underneath/in the house that burnt down right next to this one a few months ago. I would think that with the amount of money being made on this rental that some basic maintenance could be done for the windows, door knobs, and front door. Other than that, honestly, this place is a fantastic place to stay. It's a great location to use as home base. It's super peaceful with very kind neighbors.

Overpriced for this home!
The home had a nice view but is tightly enclosed with with 4 or 5 other homes in a community entry and courtyard. It is almost as if you are staying with several other families. You can hear the conversations of others all day and night. The shallow beachy area and sand is nice for small children. In no way is this home worth the nearly $1000 a night you end of paying for it. We were all sure of that!! Definitely no privacy at all and is not good for couples. There are much better options out there.
