Owner's Profile
Owner Description
Year Purchased: 2000
We purchased our home in 2000. In the first few years we rented through an agency, which only cared about high prices and did not care about the house. In 2005 we took the house off the rental market and completely remodeled it over a 2 year period. We then decided to manage our home and offer it to guests to come and enjoy all our hard work. We prid ourselves on having a clean well maintained home, with plenty of amenities for our guests.
We offer reasonable prices. Please come and stay in our home,
Joanne & Dale
Why the Owner Chose Private Homes, Jennifer
We love Lake Tahoe's North Shore, it is a special area with lots of wild life and on the "quiet" side of the Lake.
The Unique Benefits of this House
Our home is comfortable, and casual, with squirrels, birds, foxes and other wildlife casually wandering thru the property.

Large, clean, comfortable home

I highly recommend this home to anyone who needs a lot of space. It fit 11 of us women for our annual Girl's Weekend very comfortably. It was clean, well maintained, and completely stocked with anything we needed. I found the owners very easy to deal with and they offered very clear instructions for operating everything from the heater to the hot tub. The deck on the second floor faces the sun which made for very comfortable lounging. It was also stocked with firewood and kindling. The '2 nights get 1 free' deal was great!
Owner response:It was a pleasure to have you in our home, please come again soon.

Our company of friends with school age kids spent a very nice weekend in Knotty Bear Lodge. We came to ski in Diamond Peak and enjoyed it very much (as usual), but the great surprise was the house itself. We did find here absolutely everything that we needed and much more than expected - even after reading all the nice reviews. The listing description and pictures are very accurate but they do not fully reflect the especially nice spirit inside this home. Thank you Joanne, it was a great pleasure to be in contact with you. We strongly recommend this property to our friends and hope to return ourselves next season.

Our family was in Incline Village for our daughter's wedding. We stayed at this fabulous home with our two children and their families, and my mother-in-law. It could not have been more pleasant! The home had EVERY possible thing we could ask for! The main deck was the perfect gathering spot for our family. We loved every second! Joanne could not have been easier to work with, or more flexible. It is always scary, trusting the people you work with renting a VRBO. This was truly a wonderful spot- utilizing a helpful owner and a beautiful property. We would DEFINTILY return if we possible can. Thank-you, thank-you, thank-you for a truly great experience in Lake Tahoe. It was perfect!
Owner response:Pat, thank you for the lovely review, how kind of you when I know you have other things on your mind. We will look forward to having you and your family return to the Knotty Bear Lodge soon. Joanne

My Familiy picked this house because it looked spaciouis and had the right amount of bedrooms. We had no idea we'd be walking into such a comfortable, well taken care of house with a Williams Sonoma kitchen, nice clean comfortable beds, lots of books, magazines, movies. We had no issues with connecting to the wi-fi. Everything you could want is at your fingertips. Plenty of gadgets, spices, silverware to feed an army, lots of towels, etc. The location is great, the price is right and it was such a pelasure working with JoAnne! We will be back next year.
Owner response:Thank you so much for the nice review. We are glad you enjoyed our home. We will look forward to having you stay with us again next year. Joanne

This property worked very well for our group of ten comrised of three generations; plenty of room indoors and out. We had all the comforts of home plus a kitchen fit for a chef. The owner was most cooperative and helpful. I would recommend this place to friends and, yes, even to relatives.
Owner response:It was a pleasure having your family stay in our home, we hope all of you will return soon. Joanne

Review Submitted: 06/01/11
We had a wonderful time staying at the Knotty Bear Lodge! We could not believe how well stocked this home was. The kitchen has everything imaginable that you would need and everything was so clean! The rooms were spacious, the bathrooms were nice. We put the washer and dryer to use. It ended up snowing during our memorial week stay and we used the sled and saucer to sled down a hill at the back of the house and had a blast. We had two kids under one and a toddler and their was plenty of room for them to roll around on the rug and we went for walks in the quiet neighborhood. Joanne was very responsive and accomodating to our requests and we could not have asked for a better experience! We did not see any wildlife, but the neighbor's adorable bassit hound slid down the hill with us while we were sledding. :) The lake was gorgeous and the village down the road was perfect. Thank you Joanne for renting out such a wonderful house!
Owner response:It was a pleasure having you stay in our home. We hope you and your family will return soon! Joanne

we stayed for a ski week and the house was perfect for our party of 8. The kitchen is by far the best in any vacation home we have used, and the owners are both understanding and communicative. and access to all north lake tahoe ski areas is terrific--a few minutes to Mt Rose and all others are a short drive.
Owner response:Thank you so much for the nice review. I hope you and your group will hurry back!! Best Regards, Joanne
