About this property

Vintage Gem 5-minute walk to Downtown Carson City! 25 minute drive to Lake Tahoe

In downtown Carson City, this 1915-built home provides the perfect central location and atmosphere. Enjoy a quick 5-minute walk to the Capitol, restaurants, shops, casinos, museum, and entertainment. Quick drives to Lake Tahoe (25 mins), Reno (30 mins), and Virginia City (30 mins) provide easy access to all of Northern Nevada. You and your group will have the entire house and yard to yourself for ultimate comfort and enjoyment.

Absolutely beautiful home in a cozy, quiet neighborhood! We really loved the walking distance to cute little restaurants and coffee houses…even came across some deer just enjoying the day. :) And Shawnee is such an incredibly warm, welcoming, and attentive host. You won’t be disappointed with any aspect of your stay here! Looking forward to another visit to this wonderful home in the future!

This is our second stay at this property and once again, it did not disappoint! The space is bright and airy with plenty of room and lovely high ceilings - the bedrooms are all comfy and well-appointed and the kitchen is gorgeous. The neighborhood is so pretty, with historic homes and lots of trees, and the central location means you are very close to everything! Lastly, the host is warm, welcoming, and very organized, and Shawnee made everything happen seamlessly!We absolutely love this property and hope we can return soon!

Perfect Carson City Abode

You won't be disappointed with this charming house! It's beautifully decorated and the kitchen is well appointed. I loved that it's a short walk to downtown shopping, restaurants and bars. The host makes you feel like a valued guest. If I'm in town again I'll definitely book this property.

Heart of Carson City

This was a delight! The house is adorable (it looks just like a dollhouse from the front) and is bright and spacious. The decor is modern and inviting and the kitchen is gorgeous! The host provided everything one could possibly need and more, and was friendly and available. We had a wonderful time and would recommend this property wholeheartedly!

A home away from home. The cutest home that ended up being just as described and just what we needed. The host was fantastic. I feel bad for taking so long to get the review up. After booking the home for 4 of us, we had a last minute family member reach out and ask if they could crash one night with us. I reached out to the host who was quick to respond that there was no problem. The house has enough room and it made it really nice to tell the family they had a place for the 1 night. On the day of the trip we had a long flight out and while we changed flights I received a message from the host that the house was clean early and we could arrive earlier that the scheduled time. I thanked her and let her know we were still on our way. The cutest gift basket awaited us in the kitchen when we arrived. I really appreciated that extra touch. The house was clean. It had exactly what we needed for our stay. This was the first Vrbo for my folks and they loved the whole concept. The neighborhood was perfect. Near a school that you can hear kids playing in the mornings. We knew the "old downtown" and my parents walked it every morning. They kept commenting about the local deer in that were wandering the neighborhood. I don't have a single complaint. Everyone was happy and the host made everything really easy. I would 100% utilize this Vrbo the next visit out to Grandmas. This was just the perfect distance to her place and everywhere else we needed to be.
We messed up the bed a little before I remembered the photo. It's a king bed and the room has its own bathroom and balcony.
Big open kitchen
I loved this beautiful stain glass window in the front door.
