Great place to stay with family
We had a great time at Carol's Place. The 2 bed 1 bath was perfect for our small family. Close to casinos, hiking, Lake Tahoe and more! I highly recommend this cabin.

Awesome!
We had a great stay at Carol's Place. We could not have wanted anything more. It was clean, up dated, had cookware we needed, a quiet setting, and centrally located. We are coming back!

Thanksgiving Weekend In Tahoe
Listing description was very accurate, I took my sister for the first time to South Lake Tahoe. The house was super clean, we feel like we were at home, kitchen was well equipped, washer and dryer were a plus, not to mention the comfortable beds, very cozy, it snowed in during our stay so it was cold, house heater was great.
The house was only minutes away from Heavenly, we had a great time snowboarding, also close to grocery stores and restaurants. We also enjoy playing monopoly, and watched movies on Netflix.
Definitely coming back to this property

Perfect Home Away from Home
My husband, baby, and I took a little weekend getaway and Carol's Place was the perfect home away from home. I found that I ended up overpacking because Carol had everything...even a cheese grater! The house was sparking clean so I had no worries with letting my little one crawl around and explore. We took advantage of the grill and loved eating outside at the picnic bench, using the HUGE pinecones as a centerpiece. Carol was responsive to all questions prior to arrival and after. We will definitely come back.
We had such a wonderful long-term stay at Carol's place! It has all the amenities you need to feel at home, and we really were sad to leave. We loved the big backyard, cozy fireplace and comfy bed. We both worked from home for 5 weeks and had no issue with the wifi either.
The location is perfect—super close to Heavenly, but away from the touristy areas at Stateline. We loved the quiet neighborhood and the quick early morning drives to Heavenly, Northstar and Kirkwood.
Carol was super communicative and flexible with us. We enjoyed chatting with her. Our time at Carol's Place is one we'll never forget. We hope to return in the future!

Cute home with everything you need.
Very clean and updated home. Feels spacious and is packed with everything you need. Great location, close to restaurants, snow play, and grocery store.
My only complaint was someone turned down the water heater. Our first night everyone had cold showers. I chalked it up to being frozen pipes. I was completely wrong. The owner told me to just turn the water heater up one notch. Easy fix and I should have reached out sooner.
We will he back for a summer visit.

Cozy and Clean
Carol's Place is lovely if you are looking for a nice cozy house in a quiet neighborhood. It was a pleasant surprise to be less than 1/2 mile to the 7-11 for our morning walks. The home is well stocked and you just need to bring your clothes. Comfy furniture and beds with extra heaters for chilly nights. I stay at VRBO places 2x a year and this one will be one my sons and I return to. Not a lot of clutter and everything is nice and new and clean. The neighbor next door even plowed our driveway for free after we got more snow than expected. The only thing I would suggest is a halltree or coat hooks when you enter next to the front door. There is a mudroom but it's in the back of the house with the washer and dryer. Thank you, Carol!
Stayed for a month. Great house in a great location. Heavenly is minutes up the road by car. There’s a great waking trail very near the house. Good Mexican food at the end of the street within walking distance. The house is well appointed with everything you need. Carol is a fantastic host, great communication throughout my stay. Thank you!
We’ve been coming to Tahoe for several seasons, and this place has become our favorite. This time, we spent nearly a month in Carol’s cozy cabin, and it was the best experience we’ve had so far. The house is exceptionally comfortable and thoughtfully designed, and Carol is an incredibly kind and attentive host.Thank you for the warm hospitality and unforgettable time. We’ll definitely be back!
Perfectly Cozy: A Warm Haven in the Ideal Location
We had a wonderful stay at Carol's Place! The location couldn't be more perfect – great restaurants and grocery stores nearby. The beach is just a short 5 to 10-minute drive away, and there are amazing trails right at your doorstep(We walked them everyday). The cabin itself is warm and welcoming. Thank you for being such an amazing host Carol. We would love to come back soon
Highly recommend!
The owner is terrific, very helpful and responsive. This property is located in a quiet neighborhood with many nice walking paths close by. All necessities and stores are within a short drive. Great place for a long stay.
We really enjoy this Tahoe house!
PROS: -Nice open floor plan; recently remodeled kitchen, appliances, bathroom, plumbing, electrical, windows, flooring, and a well equipped kitchen.
- Large backyard with fire pit and nice seating and picnic table.
- The property manager Carol was very responsive, quick to answer questions or resolve issues and went well above and beyond to help with issues beyond her control.
CONS - The house is not full of natural light, but the lightning is very adequate.
I highly recommend this house as a very good value and would not hesitate to return.

offered 2 days refund for trouble then only gave 1
After offering to refund 2 nights for our ongoing trouble I had to ask for the refund she promised and was told by the home owner days after checkout that she decided to only refund one night.
After driving 4 hours from the Bay Area, we were minutes away from the house when we received a text from the owner. The kitchen sink was clogged and the house keeper was there with a plumber attempting to unplug the sink. We arrived and unpacked our car and settled in as the plumber continued to work. After over an hour that included loud noise from the plumbers snake and spilled drain water under the sink on to the kitchen floor and small rug near the sink and a bit of a mess that he did clean (sort of) before apologizing that his equipment was limited and that he could not clear the clog. So no kitchen sink or dishwasher for dinner dishes. We had purchased quite a lot food and expecting to be able to use the kitchen for meals. Carol apologized and offered to compensate by refunding one night promising to have another plumber out the next day. The next morning when we woke up there was a few texts from the home owner indicating that she had a plumber ready for 9am but because we didn't answer early, the appointment was lost and he would come after the job he was on. It was the first day of our vacation and we slept in until 8:30. We were disappointed and wished she had called or even just sent the plumber over at 9. We stayed near the house in hopes that we would have a kitchen sink to use for lunch or dinner and still no plumber. all of Truckee only one plumber. After some texts we were told that another plumber could come at 10:30pm and she would pay the after hours cost. Rather than risk another day we agreed. After almost an hour and a lot more noise late in the night the drain was finally cleared. The plumber said it was just a lot of grease build up. The home owner apologized again and offered a second day for our inconvenience. We were not happy but agreed, and this eased the inconvenience. We didnt want to let this ruin the rest of our time. After we returned home I checked into my charges and I still had the full stay charges. I texted the owner asking when I would receive the refunded 2 days she had offered. After a while I received a text back that she was refunding only one night because she had to pay a high cost for the plumber,not only did she renege on her offer but I wonder if I hadn't checked would I have gotten any compensation
We loved our stay here! The house was so cute and comfortable. It had everything we could want or need for our stay. The rooms were nice with really comfortable beds. Don’t let the one bathroom scare you off. It’s a good sized bathroom. The location was pretty great, too. A beautiful area amongst the trees. Like most homes in the area, there is no AC, but they have ceiling fans in every room. Overall, we had a wonderful time! Thanks!
Stayed here many times. Perfect place for my family.
