Why the Owner Chose Dollar Point
We fell in love with beautiful Lake Tahoe when we came from Sweden and built the classic European chalet. Tahoe is the ultimate vacation spot with its majestic mountains and also beautiful beaches. We loved it from the start and believe you will also. Our home has all the amenities and charm to make it a comfortable vacation. We aim to please and hope you will enjoy it as much as we do. The children and grandchildren have loved all their vacations and holidays there . Christmas at Dollar Point is a tradition for many years and very special in our hearts.
The Unique Benefits at this Home
Dollar Point is the best place for fun and convenience. The Olympic pool and the summer programs is fantastic. The Friday BBQ and games for the kids are very special. Also, shuffleboard and bocce! The tennis courts and clinics are very popular. The private beach has volley ball games, umbrellas and is a kid's paradise. The long pier is a favorite for crayfishing, sunbathing, boating and just hanging out.

We absolutely LOVED your beautiful cozy home! It was so warm and comfortable, and such a nice change from modern built homes, which can feel cold Your lovely flowers and welcome note were a special touch, thank you so much. We will definitely be back - we loved everything and the Dollar Point community is perfect. I left you two "Great Reno Balloon Race" wine glasses in your cabinet to add to your collection. Best until we speak again, Ingrid

Birgitta, We had a fabulous time.It was really special for my husband and me. All our children and grandchildren were there... pls we invited his brother and wife. We were celebrating my husband's 70th birthday. There were 10 adults and three children. The dinner table was great because we could all fit around it with the baby in the highchair.The pool area is absolutely beautiful, large pool, tennis courts, ping pong table, shuffle board, and large grassy area for the kids to run around. Plus, we had fun at the beach also. There is so much to do in the area... lake tours, river rafting, bike trails... plus much more and something for everyone. I've rented places in different parts of Mexico and all the Hawaiian Islands, but this was one of the best vacations we've had. Again, thank you! PS. The bottle of champagne was very nice of you - Thank you!

Hi Birgitta! We left your lovely home at 9:15 today after a wonderful week. The dishwasher is full of clean dishes, the laundry has one load of towels in the washer, and we stripped the beds and left the sheets. We replaced the dishwashing detergent and left some hand soap and tissues. When we arrived, everything was in good order. We used many of your kitchen pans (even the waffle maker) and thoroughly enjoyed your well-appointed home. We put out trash on Thursday. It was a pleasure doing business with you! We would be thrilled to rent your home again. Diane

Birgitta. We had a great time during our New Year's stay. The house is warm and big. The steam shower is a treat when you come home from the cold outside. The view from the deck was gorgeous and we were lucky to have great weather to enjoy it in full. You guys are very caring and thank you for leaving the Christmas lights and sleds for us. We enjoyed it a lot. The kids actually were sledding right by the house.

Hi Birgitta, .... The house was wonderful and we had a great time! There was lots of room and the house was equipped with everything that we needed. Thanks for renting to us and we look forward to renting again! Thanks so much! Julie PS. My mom called me to compliment the house. She said what she liked best were all the personal touches, the artwork and dishes, that made the house more of a home than a rental!

We really did enjoy your charming home at the Lake. The house was wonderful - so charming and picturesque. It was an easy walk to the pool area for our young grandchildren... and the sleeping arrangements were perfect for a family of our size.... And, best of all, the house plan made it possible to have some quiet areas for naps and early bed times, and still allow the adults to have a place to carry on conversation. The lovely barbeque on the deck was a special treat. We loved the steam shower... and having clean, modern bathrooms was terrific. You have a perfect location - and thank you for making it so easy to come and go... no check in lines, check out lists. etc... being treated like a responsible family (which we are) made all of our transactions with you a pleasure. Your care and attention to detail are evident throughout the house. We do expect to do the Lake again so do expect to hear from us.

Hi Birgitta, We had a wonderful time. The house is fantastic and we will definitely want to come back and stay there again! We left the keys on the hook. Also, the trash compactor worked fine after that first day. Best Regards, Andrei

Dear Birgitta, We had a wonderful time in Tahoe despite the tragic fire, your home is lovely, and we especially enjoyed the beams and unique carpentry throughout. The first floor, wheelchair accessible bathroom and shower were a true blessing, because one of my nieces had a serious accident, and came with a broken leg. She was able to get into the shower, and really enjoyed it. Also, the high chair was truly useful for my great nephew, 16 months, and the recliner wonderful for his grandfather, who used it daily. Thanks, E. L

"Dear Birgitta: We loved the house. The towels were especially amazing, a great investment in comfort. I love to cook so the plates and glassware were wonderful. Other things that are amazing about your home: the pictures, the decorations, the jenn-air(yay!!!), and the neighbors were all great. Anyone would be thrilled to stay in your home! Thank you, thank you, thank you for letting us stay in your home." Martha Kreeger Fremont, CA
