This is a lovely home with outstanding views of Lake Tahoe from the western side. We never made it up for sunrise, but the colors at sunset were gorgeous. There are two full bathrooms, two king bedrooms, a queen bedroom, a very very small kid bedroom with a bunk and a twin, and a den that has a twin daybed with a trundle. All of the bedrooms/den except the kids room have views. The downstairs king and the den have doors onto the patio. There is no air-conditioning but it cools down at night. The kings are firm but the queen is less so. Also, the kids room light has to have the light bulbed physically turned to turn it off and on. I'm 5'7'' and I couldn't reach it without a stool. Little kids would have an issue. Small detail, easily managed for us, but probably needs to be fixed.

The property is beautiful and well maintained. There is everything you could need in the kitchen. We cooked every night for 7 people and didn't lack for anything. The dining table was very large and we could have seated more comfortably. The home is not fancy and renovated. It is homey and comfortable, so if you are looking for fancy, this is not the place for you. It really does feel like you are staying in someone's treasured vacation house-which was nice. However, the wow factor is in the views. Every room (except as noted) have magnificent views of the lake. My mother and mother in-law spent the entire vacation out on the beautiful deck under the umbrella watching the lake change colors. There are many chairs and cushions, and a weber grill that my husband used and drooled over.

The outdoor amenities included two sit on top kayaks, which we used every day. They were part of the reason we rented this property in the first place and made the vacation special.There is nothing like being able to paddle around in the lake whenever you choose. Bring water shoes to kayak as you have to take them pretty far out for depth enough to paddle and it's very rocky. There is also a dinghy and I understand there is a buoy for boats. There are four bikes for use, but they are in varying states of usability. I suggest bringing your own if that is important to you.

The homeowner has provided lots of extras. There are dog toys and leashes and helmets for the bikes. There are shared spices and various foodstuffs from previous guests. It's a lovely home with everything you need for a fabulous stay in a really convenient and quiet spot.
