We had two families of four stay at this property and it worked out very well. Great access to the bike trail and public beaches are not far. The place is in great shape and there is plenty of room for two + families.

Lovely Home with Everything You Need for a Relaxing/Fun Stay at the Lake
We and our group truly enjoyed staying at The Gem. The open floor plan in the kitchen/dining/living room area was perfect for game nights and/or just hanging out, and the arcade games and ping pong table provided tons of fun throughout our stay. The kitchen had all the utensils we needed, and the neighborhood was great to walk around in for some fresh Tahoe air. Thanks for having us!

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay in this well appointed, spacious home! It has everything we needed…. even a aeroncinno to make steamed milk for our morning coffee! There aren’t many rental properties as comfortable as home, but this one definitely is!

Lovely property and great location in Dollar Point. The house is well appointed and was perfect for our ladies getaway. The only downside was that we received a text on our way up saying the hot tub was not working and unusable during our five night stay. An amenity we were really looking forward to. Other than that I would stay there again with family and friends.
This home is amazing. It over exceeded our expectations. Note, with no AC, the house has warm during the day, but cooled off quickly for a perfect nights sleep.

Couldn’t have picked a better spot for our annual gathering of friends. Accommodations are perfect for 5-6 people with plenty of space for relaxing, cooking and sharing a meal together. Even better outside winter when you can enjoy the many decks and patios. Having use of garage is an excellent perk you don’t find in many rentals. Neighborhood and location are excellent for taking in the town, lake views and just getting a walk in. We’ll be back!

Would give 4.5 Stars if able The house is nice and spacious and very well appointed, lovely and very functional kitchen and good appliances. But there is no hot tub as of August 1, 2025 and a significant amount of construction materials for the bedroom views. We felt misled about the hot tub and received a message on day of check in that no hot tub was available. Noisy neighbors had late night parties two nights.

We’re glad you enjoyed the home and kitchen during your stay. Unfortunately, the hot tub broke just before your arrival and had to be removed for repairs. We reached out as soon as we were aware of the issue, and it has since been fixed and reinstalled. As for the neighborhood noise, had we known during your stay we would have done everything possible to mitigate it, as there are strict noise regulations in place for both visitors and residents. We appreciate your feedback and hope to welcome you back for a smoother experience.
My family of four and my brother's family of four just completed our second extended stay at this house. Kids are from 13 to 18 between the two families and the accommodations work very well. This is a really nice house for the price and it is well stocked with towels, paper towels, etc. to handle a long stay. The hot tub and barbeque area are really nice and the area is quite.
We went up to Lake Tahoe with another family and our teenage and young children to celebrate my daughters birthday. The house was in a great location everything was very clean. Loved that the teenagers got the lower level to have their own space. We used shovels and made a mini sled hill in the yard and dig out a big snow pile and made a snow cave! The kitchen was awesome. Had everything you needed. We cooked breakfast lunch and dinner in the house. Only complaint was we struggled to get football on their tV luckily I brought my Apple TV and got it to stream! All in all a great place to stay!!
Great property and location. Well stocked and everything was labeled. It was cold outside but never in the house. Very clean and comfortable. The ping pong table was utilized quite a bit. Close to amenities but quiet neighborhood. I would recommend this house to everyone and look forward to staying again in the future.
The property was exactly what it looked like. The layout is great for a family because the kitchen is open to the dining area and living room. The bedrooms were perfect for us with one having bunk beds. Close to town and all you need.
The property was fantastic. The location was perfect…close to the bike path and Commons Beach. Easy to drive to north and south Tahoe. The kitchen was super stocked with loads of spices and all of the cooking gear you need.
Great common areas - kitchen, dining area, living room, hot tub -for get-together of adult family. Close to market, restaurants, lake, X-country skiing.... Had a great time!

Very nice home, lovely views of lake
Some things are unavoidable with inclement weather. We had a power situation that could have been far worse. It was resolved an hour after check-in. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay and our 115 lb puppy loved the snow.
The Gem at Dollar Point was a 10/10! The house was exceptionally clean, well-equipped kitchen, and everything was top quality. For us, we prefer the chill nature of N. Lake Tahoe, so the location was excellent! And the peak-a-boo lake views from the sunroom was the best! The neighborhood was nice, quiet, and the little town near by so cute and convenient. We cannot wait to stay here again!
