Things To Know



Tahoe is home to many animals. You may experience bears, raccoons, mice, and other animals. Meadows are home to many rodents. When these areas are filled with water or snow, these animals move to homes in the area. You may experience these animals in or near your home.



WiFi can be spotty in the mountains.



This home is not equipped with air conditioning.



The patio furniture is seasonal.



The BBQ is seasonal.



Parking is limited to 2 vehicles in the driveway and 2 vehicles in the garage.

Street parking is not permitted and may result in fines or towing.

Please make sure cars are parked fully within the driveway and not blocking sidewalks or neighboring properties.

Oversized vehicles, trailers, RVs, and boats are not allowed.



Garbage and recycling should be stored in the big metal bear box next to the driveway. There is a latch on the front of the bear box. You will lift the latch with your hand when opening and closing the bear box. Our bears are pretty smart. DO NOT LEAVE THE BEAR BOX UNLATCHED. This will ensure that the local wildlife cannot get to your trash.



NOTE: The city of South Lake Tahoe takes the safety of their wildlife and the beauty of their city very seriously. So please never leave garbage outside overnight as the wildlife will find it, and guests will be responsible for any clean up or fines that may occur.

We love this Tahoe home for our family summer vacation! This home is located in a nice neighborhood, great for riding bikes, taking walks and close enough to take drives to explore other areas of beautiful Tahoe! We love too that there are 3 full bathrooms

The local managemet team is unresponsive. We were locked out of the home on our last night at 1am. The electronic passcode stopped working with the lock. This created a huge problem for us at 1am in the morning. This caused quite a lot of stress and lost vacation time. Last night in tahoe and its cut short because of an emergency situation. The only support available is some out of town third party tex service that can't do anything. If you have a situation that needs a quick resolution it's not going to be resolved. We were locked out and thought we were gonna have to find a hotel for the night at 1am in the morning. Left a very bad taste about the home rental experience. We waited over 2 hours at one o'clock in the morning to try and get a solution and none was provided. We had to figure out how to get a ladder to break into the two story window, which we left open. It was dangerous and stressful. We were lucky we were able to find a ladder at two a m. In the morning. Remove a screen 15 feet up a later in the dark. We had some teenagers with this as well, who wanted to go to sleep, we all did. No one from the local property management team ever contacted us, not even the next day. They couldnt care less about our situation. They would not provide any type of refund for our lost time or stressful and dangerous experience. The Wi-Fi is very spotty and not dependable. If you need to do any important work the wifi is not adequate. Other than that it is nice .

Response from VrboOwner on 25 Aug 2026
Thank you, Justin, for sharing your experience with us. We genuinely regret the situation you faced with the lock and the stress it caused on your last night. That shouldn’t have happened, and we understand how frustrating it must have been to feel locked out and without immediate support. We strive to provide a seamless experience for our guests, and it’s clear we fell short in this instance. Your feedback is invaluable, and we will address the communication issues with our local team to ensure that future guests receive the timely assistance they deserve. We’re glad to hear you found the home nice overall, and we hope you were still able to enjoy some aspects of your stay despite the challenges. We would love the opportunity to welcome you back in the future, where we can provide the comfortable and hassle-free experience we aim for. Thank you again for your insights.

host was unresponsive on VRBO app. heater in the master bedroom did not work. there was only 1 roll of paper towels for the whole weekend (we had to purchase our own). the garbage container in front of the house was completely full so we put our garbage and recycle in the garage which had a previous guest’s garbage in there as well. the refrigerator didn’t seem to get too cold/keep our food and drinks very cold even when the fridge was restarted and set on the highest cold setting. the two bedroom doors downstairs would get stuck when opening them and one came off the hinges which we fixed.

Cozy and just right!

The house was the right amount of space for our group. It was located away from town but most things were 10-15 min drives. When we arrived, it was cleaned up and welcoming. There were extra blankets and pillows in each closet of every room, which was helpful because it did get cold per our socal standards. Only mini complaint was that the trash cans were full from the previous guests, which makes sense if trash collection day hadn't passed by before our arrival, but we had to stuff our trash further into the bins and we didn't want to leave trash laying around. Overall, it was a great time and we are grateful for a weekend in Tahoe.
