We had 8 guys for the annual golf reunion. What a terrific time. Lots of room to spread out. I drew the hide-a-bed downstairs and even that was comfortable with a great view to go to bed and wake up to. We golfed at excellent courses nearby and the guys made gourmet dinners at night in the large, well-equipped kitchen. The weather and breathtaking views of Lake Tahoe could not have been better. We look forward to a return trip.Recommended for: Age 55+, families with teenagers, romantic getaway, girls getaway, sightseeing.

We have spent a few weeks at various homes on Lake Tahoe and this beautiful place rates an A+, far and away the best stay on the lake. Recently remodeled, tastefully decorated and a very open floor plan. The kitchen is very roomy, well stocked and can accomodate plenty of kitchen help. The great room is beautiful and perfect for entertaining a large group. The downstairs family room is great for the kids to have their own space. We like to BBQ and the natural gas connection is so convenient. The panoramic view is simply incredible and is now the background on my laptop. We spent a majority of our time on the deck, including eating meals. Perfectly located, just a few minutes from Tahoe City and very convenient to Squaw Valley, Alpine Meadows and NorthStar for the skiiers. Dollar Point is one of the most exclusive neighborhoods on the lake and you simply cannot go wrong renting this gorgeous home. We look forward to our return visit.Recommended for: Age 55+, families with teenagers, adventure seekers, romantic getaway, families with young children, girls getaway, sightseeing.

This Dollar Point home is far and away one of the finest rental units available in the Lake Tahoe area. The panoramic view of the lake will make it hard to leave the deck. No worries, there are seating areas and tables on the deck. Three different levels makes it easy for a large group to settle into their own area for the evening. Multiple bathrooms on the main floor is a plus. The kitchen is large enough for a big group while having all the tools necessary for a gourmet romantic dinner for two. With all the year round activities available at Lake Tahoe, this home is a great base to work from or never leave.Recommended for: Age 55+, families with teenagers, adventure seekers, romantic getaway, families with young children, girls getaway, sightseeing.

There can't be a better rental at Lake Tahoe (at least I'd never need to look further). This is a comfortable, beautifully decorated and impeccably maintained home. And the panoramic view is stunning! There is plenty of gathering space, both indoors and on the two large decks, but also separate spaces for quiet privacy. The neighborhood is peaceful and away from traffic, which enhances the experience of relaxing on the deck. I visited in the summer and hope to repeat this delightful experience sometime when the snow flies.Recommended for: Age 55+, families with teenagers, romantic getaway, sightseeing.

I recently spent four nights in this spectacular Dollar Point home overlooking Lake Tahoe. The home is perched upon a bluff just above the water affording a virtually unobstructed 180 degree view of one of the most beautiful lakes in the world. From the decks along the back side of the home, sunrises and sunsets, on both clear and cloudy days, are literally mesmerizing! The Kitchen is open, spacious, stylish, functional and well appointed for the preparation of fine food. It opens to the Great Room to permit interaction between those preparing meals and the rest of the group. During the four days that my party of nine stayed in the home, we felt no inclination to eat in any of the fine restaurants in the area, primarily because the kitchen is so convenient and we could not envision a better setting for either inside or outside dining. The bedrooms, bathrooms and common areas were very clean, comfortable and accurately depicted in the VRBO photos. I wouldn't hesitate to return to this home in the future.Recommended for: Age 55+, families with teenagers, families with young children, girls getaway, sightseeing.

We were lucky enough to enjoy a month in this beautiful home. Everything was top notch and the views were just awesome. We are having withdrawls being back home. This is one of those rare occurences when the home is actually better than the pictures. There is no way someone wouldn't love staying here. The owners were super and responsive to our every need. If we could give them 10 stars we would. Thanks for a memorable stay.Recommended for: Age 55+, families with teenagers, romantic getaway, girls getaway.

I would HIGHLY recommend this rental home. Quite simply, this is THE nicest home I have ever rented. I've stayed in beautiful homes, hotels and resorts all over the world, but none compares with this incredible home. I spent several summers at Lake Tahoe as a child and teenager, and this home has the best view I have ever seen. The pictures on this site will confirm that for you. The recently remodeled floor plan offers a huge entry/kitchen/dining room/living room. The huge fireplace in the living room and gorgeous view from this entire "great room", make this a perfect place for entertaining and relaxing with groups from 2 to 20. We arrived late on our first night, and I have to say how enjoyable it was to find coffee, creamer and sugar already stocked for our first morning. We enjoyed a hot cup while sitting out of the deck and taking in the sunrise along with the wonderful smell of the pine trees. The home also has fully stocked seasonings, marinades and other items for the renters use (they are even alphabetized for easy locating). The outdoor bbq is plumbed to natural gas (so no propane tanks to change) and is easy to start and use. The temperature on the bbq is very easy to regulate and control, which allowed us to cook wonderful chicken, steaks and fish. The kitchen is very large and has wonderful preparation areas that allow 5 - 6 people to assist with food preparation at the same time... something our groupd really enjoyed. The cabin (mansion) is located just a few short miles from Tahoe City, which offer excellent bar and dining options. I personally recommend Christy Hill for a great meal with a wonderful lake view (it's a bit pricey, but worth it). This is the perfect home for a couple, a family, or a group of up to 10 - 12 people. We can't wait for our next visit. Pat (Northern CA)Recommended for: Age 55+, families with teenagers, adventure seekers, romantic getaway, families with young children, girls getaway, sightseeing.

This cabin is absolutely perfect for any Tahoe trip. The location in North Shore Tahoe is great for all types of vacationers as it's right on the shore of Lake Tahoe within close distance to ski resorts, casinos and towns yet is isolated enough for quiet relaxation. The interior is bright and modern but retains a classic Tahoe cabin feel we've all grown to love. The huge kitchen and dining area is great for entertaining and feeding large groups. The cabin itself would be perfect for anyone, but then you step out onto one of the two large decks and your mind is blown. The view is 270 degrees of Lake Tahoe bliss. The end.Recommended for: Families with teenagers, adventure seekers, families with young children, girls getaway, sightseeing.

Owner info
Year Purchased: 2000
About the owner: We are a retired couple who live in Los Gatos, California. We honeymooned at Lake Tahoe and have been vacationing there with our children for over 30 years. There are so many things to do at Tahoe for all ages and interests and we have built up a lifetime of great memories there. We hope our guests will have a wonderful stay and will create their own memories of their time at Lake Tahoe.
Why the Owner Chose Dollar Point:
Lake Tahoe is only a 4-5 hour drive from the Bay Area and as you reach the Sierra foothills you can feel yourself relaxing. If you fly into Reno or Sacramento airports our home is a 1-2 hour drive, so it's readily accessible from any direction.
We chose this location because, being out on a point, our view is 180 degrees and very panoramic. We can see about 75% of the lake from our deck.
Dollar Point is extremely well run and maintained. There is a large pool, lawn area and 3 tennis courts at the main recreation center just inside the entrance. There are 2 more tennis courts down by the beach with views that will make you lose focus on your tennis. The beach and pier are wonderful for family time right at the lakeshore.
Dollar Point has hills and flat areas, so you can jog, walk or bike ride without ever leaving the subdivision. There is also a bike trail from DP all the way into Tahoe City and many miles beyond.
The Unique Benefits at this House:
We especially like our north shore location because you have the benefits of Tahoe City (shopping, restaurants, concerts, bike trails) without staying in a crowded location. If Tahoe City is crowded, as it can become in the high seasons, you can turn north out of the Dollar Point entrance and get to Kings Beach, Incline Village, Northstar ski resort, or Truckee without fighting traffic. The state line at the north shore is only 20 minutes away and offers four casinos for your entertainment.
The home is also within a 20 minute drive to three other excellent ski resorts (Squaw Valley, Alpine Meadows and Homewood Resort), as well as numerous excellent mountain golf courses, primarily in Truckee, a 30 minute drive.
If you prefer to relax with a book and a world-class view, our two decks are just the ticket. During the summer months you will see para-sailers, water-skiiers, kayakers and twice a day the Tahoe Gal steamship, with its passengers enjoying views from the lake and a cocktail or two.
