About this property

Relaxing house with WiFi, gas fireplace, & washer&dryer

Summary:

Relax on Pretoria



The Space:

Take a seat around the firepit - you're in Tahoe now! Guests can prepare for cabin-style relaxation throughout this centrally located single family home, while still relaxing in a quiet neighborhood that backs up to miles of Tahoe Conservancy woods. When you're not walking to the lake or cross-country skiing through the forest, guests can relax in front of the indoor gas fireplace. During the winter, enjoy close proximity to all of the major resorts (Northstar, Squaw Valley, Alpine Meadow, Diamond Peak, and Homewood). The fully equipped kitchen and private washer/dryer ensure you'll have everything you need after your adventure. Even board games are included for post-hike fun!

Relaxing getaway

This house was perfect for our family’s Christmas vacation. The location is close to all of the major ski resorts, walking distance to the lake and there is national forest land right out the back door for hiking and sledding. We’ll definitely be back!

Great Cabin

The cabin was just right for us. It was clean and came fully stocked for us. The wooded area out back was perfect for snow play. They even provided some board games that we enjoyed playing in the evening hours.

Nice place, good location

This was our second time staying in Carnelian Bay. The cabin is about a 15 minute walk to the lake, and Watermans Landing. The place could use some updating, but it suited our needs just fine for 4 nights. The beds were all very comfortable, and the place felt clean. We loved that they had kayaks and a SUP in the garage. Also the garage was very roomy with high ceilings, so we were able to park our Toyota Tundra in it which was nice. We would gladly stay here again.

Beautiful getaway

We visited in October as the weather was changing and had a great time. The house was very inviting and had everything we needed. We hiked and biked. Spent lots of time at the lake (which is super close) and visited some great breweries.

Great place to stay!

We loved our stay! The cabin was perfect for our summer getaway. The location was quiet and the house was clean and well stocked. You can walk to the lake and rent kayaks at Watermans, walk to Garwoods for a Woody, and you can walk right out the back door for a nice hike. Our kiddos loved the foosball table and the bunk room. We'll be back.

Small but perfect!

The location was perfect! Both kings beach and Tahoe city are a15 min drive. The neighborhood was quite and relaxing. The property felt safe and inviting with ample seating along with comfortable beds. While it’s a smaller house considering the homes around it, it was the perfect location for our family vacation.

A Great Cabin !

We love the proximity to the Lake, backing up to conserved land. We followed trails leading up to the Tahoe Rim Trail system! Relaxed in front of the fire inside and on the deck. Stocked with lots of extras. It was super clean.

Perfect location

We spent a week here with our young kids and had a great time exploring all that Tahoe has to offer. You can walk to the lake, the proximity to hikes and skiing is excellent, and you can walk right out the back door to explore the national forest. Our kids loved sledding right out back! The house was very clean, welcoming and well stocked. We'll definitely be back!

Location great, house needs cleaning

Great location, 15 minutes to beach, restaurant, mini golf. Hiking in woods right behind house. House itself needs thorough cleaning though - counters, floors, walls, carpets, etc.

Perfect spot for a ski vacation

We had a very fun an relaxing week at this cabin. We skied at the nearby mountains almost everyday. We took the kids sledding on a hill that’s part of the national forest land right outside of the cabin’s back door. We made great meals in the well stocked kitchen. The beds were comfortable and the neighborhood is super quiet which made for great nights of sleep. We’ll definitely be back.

Great location

A very well equipped house and the photos reflect the reality. The drive way if very spacious and can easily accommodate multiple cars ( we’ve had 2 jeeps). The garage is also very spacious and clean. It is a 15 min easy walk to the beach ( very dog friendly stone beach and great for kayaking and paddle boarding). Behind the house, there is a nice trail in the woods. Few minutes drive from grocery stores, gas station, restaurant and other public beaches.

Great stay

Get location. Great place. When we arrived we got the wrong code for the lock box and garage door. That took awhile to get situated and it didn’t help that it was dark so it was tricky to find the house with the address. The only down side was the water pressure while showering and getting a steady temp other than that it’s a cozy house.

Family getaway

We loved this location. We were a family of 6 with adult children and were all very comfortable in the house. We spent our days out and about but enjoyed each evening cooking dinners in and on the back porch sitting around the fire pit. The house is located conveniently to many things. We walked to the beach and miniature golf one day. We drove to Kings beach and spent a day there. We walked the Tahoe East Shore Trail. So much to do nearby. Thank you for your prompt responses to our questions. We had a great time and hope to return next year.

Do not recommend.

It is a dirty place to stay at; unsanitary. Took pictures of cockroach. Pillows had slobber (from last guest possibly), and rug was disgusting to walk on. Hope they get this place cleaned up. Was really looking forward to this vacation and this place really messed up some of those memories.
Response from VrboOwner on Jun 20, 2023
We're so sorry you were unhappy, Jacqueline. Pest control did come inspect the home during your visit and were unable to find evidence of roaches. All of the comforters and pillows have been washed. Thank you!
