Family-friendly getaway w/ private hot tub - dock & kayaking close by!

The house was ok. The location more than made up for the homes inadequacies. It backs up to the Kaspian recreation area and miles of trail. Beach is good but the gravel is pretty rough. Kayak was good despite having only 1 and a half paddles. Overall it was a great time.

The outside furniture was rickety to the point of being a hazard (read: unstable chairs that gave you splinters and both outside tables couldn't stand up on their own and had to be leaned against a wall). The hot tub was disgusting - cloudy with a terrible smell.

We also had no idea how to access the piers or kayak, and calling AND emailing Customer Service multiple times over several days yielded us not one single call back or any answers.

The inside of the house was decent if not very dark and the beds were really comfy.

We had a great time enjoying this property for a weekend. The hot tub and deck area were great and it's a short walk to a dock for amazing sunset views. It's location is perfect to the lake but you also have easy access to Tahoe City restaurants and sporting adventures just down in Homewoood. Great stay!

This is a nice small place, centrally located, walking distance to lake, quiet, lots of great places nearby to eat (West Shore Cafe, Sunnyside, Lakefront Grill). Great hot tub. Beds were comfortable, living room furniture too. Basics were provided (shampoo, conditioner, toilet paper, etc). We had just 3 adults in our party.

There were definitely things that need improvement. Needs comfortable outdoor furniture to relax...there are cheap white plastic chairs and old wood stools without backs to them. No cushions. We just couldn't sit out on the deck and relax. The most disappointing thing for us was that the double kayak was not at the dock as was described...it was at the house, and was too heavy to carry, we didn't have a truck to bring it to the lake. And there was only one paddle and 1/2 of the other :(

We tried to contact our Vacasa rep and she never returned any phone call, text or email. We were really disappointed at this. One of the reasons we rented a house with a kayak was to actually use it.

The instructions we were provided we not up to date: internet password, gate code for the private dock was not provided. Thankfully the key lock was correct and we were aable to get into the house!

Some other little things: there are lots of linens but no washcloths! Both bedroom closet doors are either missing a door or there was a door leaning on the inside of the closet. Old carpet in bedrooms, stained, no clocks, everything was unplugged when we arrived, (it seemed like nobody had been there for a long time as there were many dead moths under the table). Had to restart the wifi and it was open access not secured. No cutting board.

We could have overlooked the smaller things (obviously we plugged in all lamps, etc,) but the lack of response to our attempts to contact was unforgivable in my opinion. Especially after our contact sent me an email before our check in to "contact her for any reason" and that she wanted to "ensure we have a stellar experience." It must've been an automated email.

All in all, we had a lovely time in Lake Tahoe, it's beautiful!

Absolutely loved the cabin. Truly relaxing location with all the amenities of home!
