Lovely lakeview home

Our stay was perfect! Ryan was very available and communicative. Instructions were clear and we even enjojoyed a gift of some local ptoducts! The house was extremely comfortable and clean and had everything we needed. The beds were comfortable with nice pillows and linens. But the view! Oh my goodness. Highly recommend staying here.

Authentic Tahoe

Tahoe is warm and cozy, not glitz and glamour. As is the Mariner. Spacious with breathtaking views. Fireplace is effortless to operate and really warms the living room up. One great feature I must mention is Ryan Platt, the local rep for the owner. Could not have been more kind or instantly accessible. He must not sleep! IF you arrive at night, might pack a flashlight, as it will help you on the rather-long entry stairs until the motion-detector light comes on a few stairs down. I'd return to The Mariner in a second!
