Property was very neat, clean and well maintained. Only issue that could be discussed was lack of parking for person with boat. Host was accommodating to help with parking.

We will be back!!

Perfect property for our family(including 9 and 10 year old grandchildren). Plenty of sitting room in the living room and at dining table. Fun, comfy bunk beds. We had so much fun at the pool, playground and clubhouse. Very well stocked kitchen and bathrooms. We would definitely recommend this home and we WILL stay again. Hosts were extremely helpful and nice! Thank you for a wonderful time!!!

About the host

Hosted by Charles Russo

Host profile image
Heather and I are from the Northern California and Nevada area. We loved the outdoors since we lived near Lake Tahoe. The mountains, the water, and the peacefulness that it has brought us. This was our vision for the Red Door Cottage: a piece of mind for us both and a hope for others to find respite.

Why they chose this property

We wanted to be near water again and have a place to "just get away" from it all.
