Tahoe Trip

The cabin was not as pictures described. It definitely was not as tidy/clean as I would have liked it to be for what we paid to stay for one night. 600.00 for one night I expected nicer and for the hot tub to work. Hot tub was cold and nasty.

Awesome place, the host was even better. Nice, communicative, and understanding. House was clean, the pictures online matched the house 100% and everyone who went enjoyed the time spent.

Quiet and relaxing

Great place only a short bit out of the way, just enough to be away from the hustle but close enough to make a quick trip to various Tahoe locations or go explore clear mountain lakes. No A/C but that is typical for the area. Was nice and cool at night with windows open and the sound of the mountain stream running at the base of the property.

beautiful area but we were unprepared for cabin problems

We received notification the day we made our 500 mile journey that a water pipe had broken at 4 am that morning and there was a hole and pile of dirt waiting for inspection. untrue, see photos. Access was extremely challenging for 4 people from 70 to 80. there were no verbal instructions for the house and written instructions were wrong. It was 86 degrees and no airconditioning as described. No hair dryer, no paper towels or extra trash bags. steep and trecherous access to river. old photos showed drip coffee maker but Kureg was present . we had fun with friends but the cabin was a real disappointment. Giant "wood" ants all over wall around the bed and through the living quarters. i was unable to download numerous pictures to demonstrate issues - this site would not accept them. This plus additional issues will be sent to VRBO for review.

Great experience!

I was really skeptical about renting this location due to all the comments but I wanted to try it out for myself and I’m glad I did. Overall we had a good stay. Some pros; the place was clean, very spacious for our family of 7, the kitchen had a lot of counter space, the master bedroom was beautiful especially waking up to that view of the lake and sound of water. Some cons; the hot tub was dirty so we couldn’t use it and the beach/backyard area wasn’t really what I expected. But we made the most out of our stay!

Mini vacation

Pros: The Views were spectacular. Waking up to that view from the room was so beautiful! It was great for our family. We had a great time. The outdoor area was really nice. Was provided with all the kitchen essentials and restroom was fully stocked. Tv worked great movie night and game night was fun in the living room area. Cons: One thing we wish we knew there wasn’t ac in the house due to it being really hot at night. They had two fans in the house we were able to use which helped a little but great ful they had those available. The wifi wasn’t really good. When we arrived to the house there was flies everywhere in the bedroom we had to kill like 20 of them. The switches down stairs werent working properly. The fan upstairs couldn’t be left on without the lights being off. I’m not sure if people live in this property on daily basis but there was shoes in the entrance and personal items.On the side of the river there was a bonfire pit and we wanted to use it but the house inside had their rules and it said no fire on property premises.

Absolutely Wonderful

This property is in a beautiful quiet forest a setting out of a fairy tell. The kitchen is newly remodelled, the hot water is instant with great water pressure in the shower, windows are new keeping sound out and heat in, large comfy couch’s and large flat screen tv in the living room. Bay windows give you a view of the river while in bed and in the living room. The high light of the property is the chairs and fire pit on the river shore where you can wind down and enjoy the red woods and a real river view! Not to mention bald eagle sightings.

Great location

We loved our family stay. The layout of the house was nice and the walk down to the river was beautiful and a little steep. The kitchen had everything we needed with a nice dining table for the family. The living room was a good size and fit us all. Lots of windows and fresh air. Unfortunately, the jacuzzi was dirty and couldn’t be used. Also, the gas grill was dirty and had leftover food in it.

Great cabin, poor vrbo customer service

Pros: Great homey, spacious cabin with lots of nice views of the forest and sacramento river in their back yard. We were 3 aduls, 2 toddlers and 1 dog. This was first time our grandkids was in snow and they were very happy. Kitchen had plenty of spices and cooking utensils. Cons: No dishwasher. I misread and thought there was one. Would not have rented. LOTS of handwashing for our family of 5. Dishes left by previouss tenant still dirty/greasy. Had to rewash. No toaster or toaster oven even tho it was listed. Downstairs remote missing. And the icemaker did not work. Jeff from VRBO said there wasn't any icemaker and did not believe me re. missing items and existence of an icemaker in the freezer. I also said there wasn't a dishwasher and he said it was in the kitchen. The driveway was steep and the snow had turned to ice, too slippery to back out. We had to be towed out our first full day. We bought melting salt to create traction. If you go during winter, I recommend you bring some. Would have been nice if owner had some on hand or warned us ahead of time. We were cautioned about snowy conditions but not the steep driveway. They charged us $300 for additional guests (capacity was 10 and we were only 5) Also charged us double fee for our dog, $300 vs $150. (we told Jeff at time of booking the number of people and we had a dog) VRBO host Jeff was rude and would not explain charges other than it was all listed on their billing at the time of booking and we paid it so too bad. We should have disputed it then. I frankly didn't pay attention, I just wanted to complete the booking quickly as part of our overall holiday planning depended on this rental and I didn't want to lose it. I shouldn't be penalized for being careless like that. All in all, we did have a good time and the cabin itself was great.
