Although this dry February was not great for skiing, this home was a perfect place for a restful mountain escape from the busy Bay Area. I would definitely rent again!

Reviewer Comments:
We go to Tahoe often and have stayed in a lot of places, but this one was probably the best we’ve ever rented: great layout, well equipped, clean, charming, and beautiful.
Very clean but could use some updating especially the living room couch. Also would be nice to have a TV on the main level. Also need to add house book explaining how to use the lights in the kitchen under the cabinets and the TV downstairs. We were not able to figure out.

The place was perfect for us. Clean,comfortable and well located. We will be back.
We had an incredible stay at Snowglobe, a spacious and cozy cabin nestled in Ward Canyon. The house was perfect for our family getaway—quiet, inviting, and very dog-friendly, making it ideal for both kids and pets. The neighborhood was peaceful, with friendly neighbors, and the location offered easy access to nature right out the back door. The cabin itself was well-equipped with great amenities, ensuring a comfortable and relaxing stay. Whether we were lounging inside by the fireplace or exploring the surrounding outdoors, Snowglobe provided a wonderful escape. Highly recommend for anyone looking for a tranquil and family-oriented retreat!

Above my expectations! My wife and I have stayed in a fair amount of places over our years. This was by far the cleanest!!This house is very comfortable and has everything you need I highly recommend this property.
The Snowglobe is a beautifully designed and built home in a wooded area with generous spacing between homes and wide open space behind it. The natural light and views are great. The kitchen is very well appointed (quality pots/pans/knives/etc). If you have a ski pass or pre-purchased tickets, you are just a two minute drive from the Sherwood lift at Alpine Meadows/Palisades. Stunning architecture. Great fireplace. Jacuzzi bathtub + separate shower in master. Two other nice full bathrooms. Comfy bedding. Garage for your car. Recommended!

This is our fourth time in 4 years renting the snowglobe as a family and we love it more each time we go. It is the most perfect home in the most perfect location! One thing I would say, and this is not a knock on the home, is that the drainage needs to be fixed in the garage so that when snow melts from the driveway into the garage, it does not collect on the inside of the garage. This has been an issue for a couple years with this house as far as we can tell.
We have stayed at Snowglobe a few times now. It is beautifully located. Our family always enjoys spending time at this house. There are plenty of cozy beds. The kitchen is well-stocked with everything you might need. It is clean and cozy!

La casa fue lo que esperábamos para una escapada de invierno, contaba con todos los utensilios de cocina que puedas imaginar, cuartos agradables y todos climatizados, la chimenea, y el gran patio trasero para disfrutar de la naturaleza. Cercana a los ski resorts más importantes, supermercados, restaurantes. Los administradores siempre atentos de cualquier solicitud. Este fue un viaje familiar y lo disfrutamos muchísimo. Sin duda alguna nos gustaría repetir.

We rented this house for the MLK 2024 weekend; it was our second time staying here. House is great - very comfortable, well-stocked, clean and the light in the main room during the day is great. Layout is good too - one main bedroom + full bath on the top floor; two bedrooms and full bath on second floor; and TV room and full bath on the ground floor. For skiers, location is great when Sherwood chair is running at Alpine, but even when it isn't, easy drive to both Alpine and Palisades.

We came here for the weekend with our dog and it was our first time staying in this neighborhood in the summer. Amazing! We felt like we were in a tree house, with gorgeous forest views, and stars we could see from our bed at night. We enjoyed walking to Alpine Meadows for a mellow hike. And yet we were really close to the lake, Fire Sign, West Shore Market, etc. The home was in beautiful condition - extremely well maintained, clean, spacious. We will definitely be back! Thanks for such a wonderful stay.
