Fantastic home! Wonderful hosts!
Apple Hill has been a tradition for our family where many fond memories were made with our two daughters. The tradition continues now with six grandkids from 1year to 10 years old. This beautiful home accommodated the 12 of us with plenty of room to spare. The kids loved the house almost as much, if not more, than the apple farms and the lake nearby. Kimmy was especially responsive before and after we arrived with a few small concerns that made our stay even better. I highly recommend this place!

Absolutely magical stay!
This place was wonderful! The hosts were easy to communicate with, and had provisioned the place wonderfully. The space allowed for family to be together, but also for needed times of solitude, which is great, with a large family.

The property offered a nice relaxing time with the family. The proximity of the grocery store was convenient, also the distance to south lake Tahoe was good. Kimmy and John were great at getting back on us when we had questions. Overall we had a great time, experience, and we enjoyed our stay in this beautiful home.

Lovely cozy home
Had a wonderful time staying at this beautiful home in the little town of Pollock pines. The home was fully lit up with Christmas lights and a nice Christmas tree. We had snow ball fights in the small backyard- the garden part of the backyard was closed due to winter. The best part was the kitchen with lots of new utensils and plates, bowls, cutlery. The rooms and beddings were comfortable and temperature controlled. The kids had a lovely time playing in the game room and loved sleeping on the bunk bed. Very close to skiing places and Tahoe. Had a lovely vacation. Would recommend for family and friends get togethers!

Owners are very responsive and helpful. The place is well suited for large families. We have 8 adults and 5 children ages 5 months to 8 years old plus 2 dogs. The kitchen is well equipped. TVs with Netflix in every room and many board games. Definitely recommend.

Just What We Were Hoping For
Kimmy & John were the perfect hosts. They were so quick to respond to questions and needs we had before and during our stay. The home was well appointed and supplied, especially in comparison to other vacation rentals stayed at previously by some our family members. It was comfortable and allowed each of my children and grandkids their own space and bathrooms, but yet had plenty of places to enjoy our together time. We spent the most time together around the large dining table inside and the pavilion table outside. The extra refrigerator was much appreciated as well. Lastly, we really enjoyed the ease of travel to Tahoe and the proximity to the local grocery store and Jenkinson Lake which we enjoyed on one of our days at this home.

Wonderful house and location
I would highly recommend this vacation rental. We stayed for a week, (10 of us altogether). I have stayed in many vacation rentals and this was the best. The house was beautiful and fully equipped for all our needs. We enjoyed the outside kitchen with the pizza oven, the hot tub and games area. We never felt crowded. The area is so wonderful, we hiked to waterfalls, swam in the lake, had a barbecue in Sly Recreation park. We also traveled to San Francisco and rode bikes over the Golden Gate. We were in California for a wedding, we had a perfect week in this house.

Checked all the boxes
My group of friends and family (total 12 plus one labradoodle) stayed for two night in this awesome home. We wanted something close to apple farms and wineries so we could easily drive to those attractions during the day and have somewhere to relax in the evenings. The house gave us space and felt so safe for the two year old we had with us with gated in porches and yard. The guest house right off the living room was a great "crash pad" for our teenagers to have their privacy also. Thanks to Kimmy who made check in easy and was available for questions and put together a great binder of local attractions. Amazing house in a great location.
