Had a great three days at this house. This is our 2nd time renting this property and we will go back in the future. Great for large groups and the house is loaded with fun things to do... beer pong...err Ping Pong, foosball, air hockey, horseshoes, badminton, etc. House is clean and what you get is accurately reflected in the description and pictures (which I have found is not always the case) And the owner, Bonnie, is just fantastic to deal with. Highly recommend

This was the second time our group has stayed at this house - it is in a great location and the house is perfect a large group. There are tons of beds and lots of space (indoor and out). The kitchen and dining areas are nice and big which is necessary when you have a large group (we had twelve people). Outside there is tons of space too including a nice outdoor eating space. The property backs up on a stream and forest area which is also very nice! Bonnie is great to work with and we plan to use this place again in the future!

Amazing house with many fun things to do and plenty of beds for all

This house was fabulous and had so many fun things to do. It had plenty of beds for a large group and plenty to do to keep people entertained. The kitchen was beautiful and there was a humongous dining room table to seat a lot of people. I would highly recommend this for a large group or several families. The owners are very friendly and it was obvious to me they care about their guests having a great experience as they understand that a warm feeling and fun time will ensure we come back and recommend this to our friends and families. Overall a great experience.

Awesome Place!!!

Rolled into South Lake Tahoe in January for an annual Dude Weekend and stayed at this Shangri-La. It's a hidden paradise at the end of a street near the keys with every amenity a bunch of young guys would want. There are 3 bedrooms / 2 full baths downstairs (ground level), including an awesome master. All the bedrooms have there own doors directly opening to a large back porch which is complete with an awesome swing chair looking out into the backyard with a full size volleyball / badminton net draped across it. Beyond that...expansive wilderness. The coyotes at night would almost come right up to the fence! Then you take the stairs up and it gets even better. Upstairs there are two GIANT open rooms. One is the kitchen with this huge island to cook / prep from and a massive dining room table that seats over 12. This room also has a huge porch attached to it with a barbecue that is actually piped into the gas line so you don't even need propane or coals. Works great. But even sweeter is the front upstairs room. It's one HUGE room complete with a pool / ping-pong table, air hockey, fuseball, a shuffleboard (my fav) and a mini-bar! Yes, it's true. This is the coolest room of all time. It also comes with a PS2 (so bring some games), and giant flatscreen facing very comfortable seats & couches. This room could easily accommodate 20 people just hanging out itself. Did I mention the high ceilings? Oh yeah, that's awesome too. There's also two more bedrooms and a full bath upstairs. So sleeping 14 dudes was not a problem for us at all. It could easily handle 16. But if you're coupled up, each couple could even have their own private bedroom (5 total). You'll just have to fight for the master...it's obviously the best. Then there's a great hot tub, full laundry, giant garage, and a basketball hoop in the driveway. All the perfect setting for a winter or summer party getaway for either dudes, full families, or even couples. It's seriously the best cabin I've ever rented and I've been doing this for ten years. Bonnie is great and a pleasure to deal with. And the place is only a 12 minute cab ride to the casinos (about $30 each way). "Lakeshore Taxi" is my fav taxi co in the SLT area. Only bummer was bad snow on the mountain that weekend, but that's Mother Nature's fault! THIS IS HANDS-DOWN THE COOLEST PLACE TO STAY!!! (I'll regret posting this review someday when I want to come back and it's all booked up! :)

Fun house, great owner

This house was great! A beautiful kitchen, nicely remodeled with all kinds of stuff to do inside the house. The home is located in the Tahoe Keys so it's close to Heavenly and close enough to the edge of town that we were able to get to Sierra at tahoe in 25 minutes and kirkwood in 45 minutes. Bonnie was very pleasant and would love to rent from her again. Overall, very satisfied.

This is a great home for a group get together! The home is really set up for fun. Our group had a fun time using all the toys in the main room, and we even took advantage of the swim complex down the street. We had the indoor olympic size pool to ourselves when we went. It was close to everything we wanted to do in South Lake, and the owner was great to work with. We plan to rent again.

I just wanted to send you a quick Thank You for letting us stay a little later today! Once that wind started blowing we high tailed it out of there! We left the house key in the lock box on the door. Seems like you are getting some snow (finally!) The house was AMAZING! and we had such a fantastic and memorable weekend. At one point we went out the casinos and came back an hour later because we were having so much more fun at the house! I would definitely recommend this house to all of my friends looking for a great house for a great time. Thanks again! Nikki

What a great house and an even greater host!! Between the beautiful house, huge fenced yard and amazing number of games/activities we couldn't get enough. There was more than enough room and things to do to occupy our 13 guests. The hikes right out the backyard were awesome. And Bonnie even went and got us DJ Hero!! We'll definitely be back. Thanks again Bonnie for being such a great host!!

Entered in Guest book 10/27 Hi Bonnie, Thank you so much for your beautiful home! It was perfect for our families. We enjoyed every second there. The week was perfect! Our friends that came over all took business cards, so next time they take family vacations, you should be hearing from them. Same goes for us!
