We will return

The stay was great. It’s our second time. There was a problem with the hot tub and we had to call the property management. They came and while they didn’t fix it, provided a loophole to keep it running, albeit without big bubbles. Remember to bring essentials, as instructed. We loved the packman machine and fuss-ball

Great stay in Tahoe

We had a wonderful time in Tahoe. The house was clean, well stocked, and in a good neighborhood. We fished the creeks nearby and the house was 10-15 min away from the beach. We would definitely come back. Bring a few extra fans if you are going during a heatwave like we did since there's no AC like most houses up there. We opened all the windows once the sun went down and the house felt nice and cool.

Solid place but…

The place was as described but unfortunately there were mice in the house. We arrived at night and within 2 minutes of arrival, my daughter and husband saw a mouse. We called and the property manager brought traps. The next morning I saw a mouse run out of my children’s room. We had to leave at that point. The property manager was so very apologetic and found us another place to stay. Big thanks to the property management company! I understand these things happen.

Property does not live up to the pictures or the hype

We chose to pay about $1,000 per day for this property, mainly for the hot tub--a welcome sight after a day of skiing. Overall, this rental is average in most aspects, and deficient in some: The kitchen area is not stocked adequately for 7+ guests, (not enough dishes or glasses and large pots). The appliances, however, are first-rate. The DR sits only 6 persons. One of the chairs came apart (literally unglued) when my daughter sat down,. The agent came right over and glued the offending chair. Perhaps a look at all the glue joints of the DR chairs is called for. All the living areas are of adequate size, but we took exception to the following: there is no closet in the Master Bedroom: a first in decades of traveling, nor is there a privacy curtain between the MBR and its bathroom: turning on the bath lights also floods the bed in light. Tough luck if you're asleep. The LR sofa is extra large but actually seats only/5 adults comfortably and there is no armchair to add to the LR comfort. There is no coffee table in the main LR, nor are there side tables. Where were we to put our drinks while watching TV. Finally, this LR could use a small carpet to break up the overwhelming brown color of the walls and floors, and eliminate the echo of the LR. It's a nice house, but the high season price is too much. One of the national chains offers studios with kithenette, plus all the amenities normally offered by a major hotel chain, plus maid service, for much less.

Great place with plenty of space for our girls getaway. Other than not having many cleaning products it was the perfect place to stay and only a 10-15min drive to the lake and casinos. The host was quick to reply and easy to communicate with as well.

Property was a perfect getaway for relaxation. Its very quite at night and peaceful. Downtown was only a 10 min drive. The house on the inside is warm and welcoming. So many activities for the family and a good sized kitchen.

Good house and backyard for a friends' get together

Overall this is a pretty good place. Open plan kitchen-dining-living room space is good for cooking and entertaining. A big dining table that could sit up to 10 people. Big couch and projector with Roku keeps you entertained. Large deck with hot tub is also nice. Comfy bedrooms and a game room complete the package. The property was also pretty clean! A few things do need a bit of attention though: Some of the window blinds are not working. The dishwasher needs to be secured in place. Remote from the living room heater/fireplace is not working, so you can't set the temperature and have to operated it manual setting it on or off. Hot tubs refuses to make bubbles. Singing shower heads should probably be cleaned. Garage door opener needs new battery. Bunk beds are a bit wobbly.
