Blue Bird Lodge
The Bluebird Lodge was the perfect place for my family to have a wonderful vacation. The tasteful decor, cleanliness, open floor plan, and amenities made this house very special. We were all very comfortable in this space and enjoyed the Lake view from the balcony. Very high end!
We enjoyed our stay at this very clean, well-appointed property. All the amenities with excellent beds for a family of all ages. 5 or so minutes to the lake and 20 minutes from Palisades. Property manager was very responsive and helpful. Would definitely stay again.

Just book it, y’all. Probably the best rental property my friend and I have ever stayed in, and it was said spontaneously over our 3 day stay. If you’re here, you’re in the right place.

Amazing 2nd stay
This is our second time staying on this property and it's very well kept and spacious. We love the location central to everything and Tahoe getaways is always attentive. The spa was not turning on and they sent someone within a couple hours who was super friendly and got it working. We will for sure be back to this property. Thank you for an amazing weekend!

Overall review
Place was great overall. A few things could use some attention- microwave was broken, just read error., out of dishwasher and laundry detergent.
Very roomy. Such a fun place for a large family get together. The management company was very responsive, professional and courteous.
We had wifi go down while working from home and they were right on top of it and worked to get a reset modem code from spectrum within minutes of my call
Thank you. Would definitely return

Thank you for choosing Tahoe Getaways for your stay. We are so glad Bluebird Lodge on the North Shore met your expectations regarding space. Thanks so much for the kind words regarding our Guest Services staff; we greatly appreciate it.
We look forward to welcoming you back to Lake Tahoe - Truckee!
We just enjoyed an incredible week in North Lake Tahoe at this gorgeous property. This was the perfect home for my large family to have a relaxing week at the lake. The home is huge, spotless, well-appointed, and in a nice location. It’s right in between Tahoe City and King’s Beach and 7 minutes away from Gar Woods.
We loved having the hot tub, pool table, lovely deck for outdoor dining, and spacious kitchen. There was plenty of space for everyone to spread out and have some privacy. We will definitely be coming back.

Blue Bird Lodge
The hot tub water was merky and didn't get above 96 degrees. The house did not have AC and often sat at 80 degrees inside in the afternoons. The house was gorgeous and lovely in every other way.

Response from VrboOwner on 20 Nov, 2025
We are sorry to hear that Jeremy had issues with the water quality of his hot tub during his stay. We service hot tubs between each guest. Future guests please note that we operate 7-days a week to assist when things are not right. Had we known that the hot tub was murky, we could have done an extra service on the hot tub for these guests.

Stayed 2nd week of July, 2021. Super easy check in, house was ready a bit early too. We found the house well cleaned and ready to enjoy!
Amazing property, great floor plan for multiple guests/families. Super convenient location, close enough to restaurants, shops and beaches. Quiet neighborhood with afternoon shade to enjoy the large decks. Great hot tub, game room and movie room with awesome surround sound. Home has all the amenities you’d expect, exception being air conditioning. We were there during a heat wave, house was pretty warm but not unbearable, cooled down nicely after sundown. Fans in every room helped, will not plan to visit in the heat of the summer in future years. Highly recommend this property and hope to return soon.

Lovely rental property!
If it were an option, I would give this rental property a 4.5!
We (2 families) spent 1 week at Bluebird Lodge in mid July. Overall, it was a great experience. We had a lovely stay at this beautiful and thoughtfully appointed home in North Tahoe. The decor was tasteful, we had a partial lake view off the large, beautiful deck, the interior layout was spacious, and most everything we needed was at our fingertips.
Communication with Tahoe Getaways before and during the stay was excellent.
We did encounter a couple of issues which is the reason I gave 4/5 stars. The sheets in all of the bedrooms had an unpleasant odor; musty, like they may have been left in the washer too long before going in the dryer. To be clear, we did not contact Tahoe Getaways regarding this, we simply washed all of the sheets in provided washing machine and the problem was resolved.
The A/C wasn't quite up to the task of effectively cooling the house (it was 100 degrees outside the day we arrived) We followed the provided instructions to close the blinds and open windows in the evenings when the outdoor temps lowered but some of the afternoons were a bit uncomfortable.
Despite these hiccups, the house itself is lovely and we appreciated the clear communication and thoughtful touches. We would stay in this house again and will certainly book with Tahoe Getaways in the future!
With a few small improvements, this would easily be a five-star stay.

Amazing House with gorgeous view!
Our group of six adults and one child were extremely comfortable in Bluebird Lodge. Everything about it was pristine. The beds were comfortable. All of the linens were new and we loved the down comforters on the beds. Unfortunately, the fireplace did not work in the master suite, but the suite was gorgeous. The house is finished with real hardwood floors and very high quality furniture, kitchen, and bathrooms. They could use a few more panse for cooking, like a non-stick skillet and one more medium/large sauce pan. The great room is very expansive with high ceilings. The hot tub was clean and lovely after a day of skiing.The neighborhood was lovely and it was close to Tahoe City and Kings Beach. We enjoyed the short 20 drive to Alpine Meadows for skiing. Tahoe Getaways has exquisite service and we appreciated them working with us on our late check out. We would definitely rent this house again. It was by fare a 5 Star experience particularly when the sun rose in the morning over the lake and painted the sky many shades of pink. Thank you Tahoe Getaways!!
This lodge was nothing short of amazing! The location was spectacular, everything was clean, management was easy to work with, the bathrooms were great, and the beds were so comfortable!
