We had an amazing stay! The cabin was beautiful, clean, and exactly what we needed for a relaxing getaway. Everything was perfect, and we will definitely be coming back. Highly recommend!
House is just as pictured. A good distance from town but wonderful if you are looking for something quiet.

Overall the property was excellent and accommodating. We spend most of our time at Meek's Bay, so the home location was just what we wanted. For the most part the property was well maintained. The kitchen was well stocked with dishes, pans, etc., with well working appliances. We would definitely rent this home again.

Clean, pet-friendly, well-equipped kitchen, great deck with gas fire pit and hot tub. Glass shower door in master bathroom needs repair - doesn’t meet acceptable standard as is.

Great family house and short walk to the beach! Wonderful stay- the only thing was check in was supposed to be 4pm and the cleaning crew showed up then and didn’t have the house clean until 5.

Lovely accommodations, comfy beds, lots of dishes. Nice open floor plan so didn’t feel cramped. Loft was a huge benefit - game area and more sleeping space. Quiet neighborhood, close to store, lake, restaurants. Would stay again!

Thank you, Codie! We are so glad you and your family enjoyed your Thanksgiving at River Rock House. We agree, the open floor plan and bonus game room, truly make it a perfect home for holiday gatherings. Thank you for being our guest and please come visit again soon! ~Tahoe Rental Company
Stayed for Thanksgiving with family. Ample room for 8 of us between the two main floors and loft area. Lovely home with plenty of open space. We didn't get to use the outside deck spaces due to weather, but it looked enjoyable for other seasons. The house had a well appointed kitchen with almost everything that you might need. Located in a quiet neighborhood and great for a cozy time with family.

Thank you so much for sharing your experience! We're thrilled to hear that you and your family had a cozy and enjoyable Thanksgiving stay. We hope to welcome you all back in the future for another memorable stay ~ Tahoe Rental Company
My husband, two adult children, and I stayed in the property and found it to be perfect for our needs. The beds were comfortable, the kitchen was well-equipped for cooking meals, and the areas for spending time together and talking were nicely decorated. The neighborhood is quiet and the location was convenient for hiking trails and restaurants in Tahoe City.
