About this property
Closest Hosted House to the Gondola with Dr Seuss
I offer a spacious, hosted home with 3 bedrooms, and 2 baths for families /groups that can sleep 6 with an additional sofa bed and a futon for kids. You will have full run of the house except for my 4th bedroom suite. I am listed under rooms because VRBO does not have an accurate classification and SLT code enforcement doesn't either. Once you arrive, park the car and relax! There is a garage and off street parking. Total of 2 cars. Not only do we offer North America’s finest ski slopes, we offer a shared/hosted house that you will have almost complete access to with fine artwork, comfortable furniture and many whimsical characters from the imaginative mind of Dr Seuss. Dr Seuss brings back brings fond memories, delighting young and old. A bounty of clubs, casinos, shows, cinemas, boutiques, restaurants, sporting goods shops, art galleries, beaches, and mountain hiking will take your breath away are all in a 15-minute walking distance! Target with a grocery inventory is only a 5 minute walk. We are located on a secluded cul de sac only a 5 minute level walk to the fabulous Heavenly Valley Gondola. You’d have a longer walk from the parking lot of any resort. The Gondola takes you up the mountain where you can choose between skiing the California or the Nevada side of the mountain. In the summer, many exciting activities are accessed by this same Gondola. Restaurants abound. You have full kitchen privileges so if you choose to enjoy a meal “at home” from the well-appointed kitchen, Safeway is a 10 minute drive.
This is my HOME for myself, and Bagel, my beagle. Since this is a hosted rental, I will generally be there. I will be minding my own business so in the winter you can wander around in your long johns and I will never know. Of the 3 bedrooms- The Master Bedroom has both a lovely sleigh bed and a futon couch/bed that converts into a double bed which is great for parents with young children. It shares a full bath with the second upstairs bedroom. Downstairs you’ll find the 3rd bedroom & 2nd full bath sensibly located on the first floor – an ideal convenience if you hate climbing stairs after skiing all day, like to sneak in late from the casinos without waking anyone – or for guests with limited mobility. For additional children, the living room couch opens to a double-size sofa bed, and each bedroom has a smart TV. Off the entryway with its stained-glass panel, whimsical Dr Seuss taxidermies and a crystal chandelier, are the living room, and dining room. In the spacious and comfortable Great Room which is graced by 20-foot ceilings and a gas fireplace which offers the cozy ambiance of a wood fireplace without the work, and “spares the air.” Avid sports fans will love the wide-screen 55” flat screen smart TV as much as avid cooks will love the well-outfitted kitchen. It is centrally located to let the cooks cook and still join in the fun. Not only can you BBQ on the deck in the fully enclosed back yard, it is a great place to watch Fido play “frog dog” in the snow. The laundry room has a high efficiency washer and dryer. If I happen to be at the grocery store when you arrive, there is a secure lock box for outside key access. We have internet, wifi, cable, roku, and ps3.
Fire and CO alarms are on both floors. A basic first aid kit is kept in the downstairs bathroom. A fire extinguisher is located both in the laundry room and on a hall shelf on the second floor. Please note that there is a security camera focused on the driveway in the front. There is another in the back focused on the back yard. There are NONE inside my home. During your stay, the security system will be turned off. and request that you ignore it.
I accept up to two (2) friendly house-broken pets with a one time extra charge of $50 per pet with an additional $200 refundable security deposit. The back and side yards are fully enclosed to provide additional privacy for my guests and their dogs and mine. Please notify me if your pet will also be a guest.
NOTE: Two day minimum required normally. HOLIDAY WEEKENDS or Special Event periods, I generally require a minimum 3 night stay.
During HOLIDAY WEEKS/WEEKENDS, discount s or weekly rates do NOT apply. Guest access Approximately 1-2 days prior to arrival, I will send you details such as the lock box key code, wifi, etc

This house is situated in the perfect place, close to the casino, shopping and ski resort. Plenty of space for our family, I would recommend booking this place. I would love to book this place in the summer as well.
My second time staying here and will be back! It’s a great house for a group of friends, with nice 3 bedrooms, a great kitchen, easy parking, and tons of seating and room in common areas. Everything was cleaned, the driveway and plowed from the 5 day storm that came right before our stay, and check in process was so easy. The location couldn’t be better as it is set far enough off the main road that it is quiet, but close to everything in Stateline (including the gondola) for it to be an easy walk.
We stayed for 3 nights and enjoyed new years festivities at the nearby heavenly village. The downstairs bathroom and bedroom worked great for our elderly aunt with mobility issues. Host was very communicative and accommodating.
Great home with tons of space!! Super close to shopping, casinos and restaurants. Everything within walking distance. We had 6 adults and had plenty of room for everyone plus a dog!!
Awesome house very close to everything in SLT, would definitely stay again!

Tony and his friends were excellent guests. When leaving, they did more than the usual stuff requested. Washed and folded towels. Neatly folded the comforters and pillows on the beds rather than tossed on the floor. Counters clean, etc. Excellent guests.
The house was perfect for our stay! We went up during a big storm and Marcia was great to communicate with and very flexible. Great location to ski Heavenly and to casinos! Would absolutely stay again.
Great location where you can walk to just about anywhere you need to go. Nice place with everything we needed for the stay. Host was very responsive and accommodating. We would definitely visit again..
The house was in such a great location. Beds were comfortable; house was homey and great for a ski trip. She also had plenty of games for kids to play.
We absolutely loved our stay at this spacious and beautifully maintained home in South Lake Tahoe! It was perfect for our large group, with plenty of room to relax and gather, and the location couldn’t have been better—just minutes from the lake, shops, gondola, casinos, restaurants, and trails. The house was well-stocked with everything we needed, and filled with thoughtful touches that made it feel like a true home away from home. The beds were comfortable, the living spaces were inviting, and check-in was seamless. We would definitely stay here again!
We had a wonderful time staying at this whimsical house while we were skiing. We could walk to the gondola, even with ski boots and carrying equipment. The house was clean, everything worked and the beds were comfy.
The property's location is phenomena, walking distance to the grocery store, restaurant and shops. The house is clean and the owner is very responsive.

Thank you Shawn. You and your group were excellent guests.
We had a great time staying here. It was close to everything we were trying to get to, including a show at Harvey's. Plus they had a plethora of cookware, which was great for making a few meals while we stayed. The host was also quite flexible and let us add an extra day to the end of our stay, which we greatly appreciated.
Our family (adults) came up to Tahoe to celebrate a birthday. We all enjoyed our stay here. Perfect amount of bedrooms and baths, and fully stocked kitchen with plenty of dishes and glasses.
The location of this house was great, walking distance to Heavenly village and the casinos. We would definitely stay again
We loved the rental, enjoyed the Dr Suess themed decor ❤️. We also enjoyed the well stocked kitchen as it has everything you would every need to cook any meal ❤️, we will be back
