We were traveling with my family with younger children, and my in-laws (with limited mobility). The cabin was so comfortable for all of us and had enough room for us to spread out, and also to spend time together. The kitchen was VERY well stocked and appreciated.

Happy Place
We had booked this property for 33 days to get away from some of the heat and humidity of our hometown, New Orleans. As soon as we entered the house we knew we had made a great choice. We immediately felt at home. The property was extremely clean and the furniture was very nice and comfortable, For a rental, we were very surprised at how well it was stocked. We did not have to buy detergent, softner, dishwashing soap, etc. Communication with the owner and was quick and helpful. The location is great as it is at the end of a deadend street, so very quiet. A nice walking path is right at the edge of the property. We even got to see a couple of bears, one with her cub. The deck was our place for morning coffee and afternoon cocktails. We would definitely consider this property again I would not change anything about our visit, except that we could stay longer.

House was well equipped. Downside was that house had not been prepared for arrival (water and hot water not turned on and house could have used a good cleaning); however owner was very responsive, quickly, with giving direction to get back on track.

We loved everything about this property! First of all communication with the owner was outstanding, thank you! The place was beyond outstanding. Spacious, two fireplaces, very clean, great location, close to the ski resorts, games to play and movies to watch, walking trail from the cabin, BBQ on the deck, and all the appliances you need just like you were at home. The owner even created a guest book that is a Bible for everything in the area, food, sking, etc... We will definitely rent here again. Our family had the BEST time.

Peaceful retreat
My family had a lovely time staying in this home. It is in a quiet, well kept neighborhood. The kitchen was well appointed with everything we needed to make ourselves at home including coffee maker and hot water kettle. The beds and pillows were very comfortable and extra towels were available in the linen closet. The furniture was comfortable and in great condition. Ample lighting and heat for the chilly evenings. We especially enjoyed lunch on the front deck and star gazing at night. There’s a trail up the forest right next to the house where we enjoyed east hikes each day. It was such a beautiful peaceful weekend at this house. Easy and short drive to the main road and the lake shore Perfectly situated away from all the crazy crowds that summer weekends in Tahoe can bring.

Perfection at Lake Tahoe
Lake Tahoe is a perfect place and this house makes it even better. We loved our stay. The location is ideal...at the end of a street right off of the main road near beautiful walking trails. The house has three bedrooms and two baths with comfortable beds and plenty of linens. The kitchen is well-stocked with everything we needed. It was clean and had plenty of paper goods, a TV in every room with a gas fireplace and propane bbq. The owners were easily accessible and very helpful. I don't know how it could be improved.

Wonderful Tahoe Home
This was the 2nd time we stayed at this home, and it sealed it for us. We will stay here every time we vacation at Lake Tahoe! The layout is great for privacy and communal living. The kitchen has everything so we cooked every night but one. The place is clean and very comfortable. We especially enjoyed sitting out on the deck. Thank you for offering such a nice place for us vacationers to feel at home.

Had a great time and your cabin was very nice. The people who were in the cottage parked over so far
That we had to park one in front of the other. The only thing that was uncomfortable was thT it was very hot in there with all the fans on . I don't know if it was hotter than normal causing it. But would still come back.

Not safe. You will be sharing the home with strangers. They will tell you other wise but the owner lies. The pictures and property is not the same. The owner has false pictures. They will threaten you with extra charges.

Another Great Tahoma Stay
This is at least the fifth time our family has stayed at this vacation home. It’s comfortable, has a well supplied kitchen, and is always clean. And the location is wonderful! It’s at the end of the road and is quite private, and right next to the forest with great hiking and sledding opportunities. We will be back.

A great stay!
A great location at the end of the street- convenient to the trail into the forest, very quiet, and lots of wildlife. We saw rabbits, a coyote, and 8 different bears! House was good and as indicated in the listing. The kitchen is completely outfitted and easy to cook in. Chairs both inside and on porch are comfortable- and plenty of chairs outside for our large group. And the porch is large enough to accommodate a crowd. I would wish for a king size bed, but the queens throughout were very comfortable. The bathroom in the master bedroom is quite small- just enough space for one person at a time. Downstairs bath is only slightly larger. However, there are lots of good quality linens. Though no house is perfect, this one certainly met our needs. We’re would definitely stay again. We loved our 3 weeks in Tahoe!
