Very good communication with host. Location is easy to navigate and close to many amenities. The set up of the space is unusual, it feels like a converted office space and doesn’t have a cozy common space to relax in if you are spending a lot of time indoors.

Nice place to stay

Ramp was a little shaky, but the rooms were very, very nice.

Needed a quick place to stay

We luckily found this rental when we needed last minute lodging because 80E was closed; we couldn’t make it to Tahoe! They allowed us to stay very last minute which was generous. Unfortunately, the property really smelled like cigarettes and arriving at a commercial office space is a bit odd. The offices have beds in them and makeshift closets. But the linens were clean; again, we just needed a place to crash with our kids for the night. The separate unit downstairs was also reserved but those guests stayed up until 3:00 in the morning, partying. You could hear EVERYTHING!!! This isn’t an ideal vacation rental spot, it’s literally an old vet’s center but in a pinch it worked for us!

Scenic and versatile location

The property was clean. The property owner was pleasant and responsive. Also, very helpful with weather info. I’d stay here and I’d recommend it to a larger group. I wish we would have used the outdoor area as it was perfect for lounging outdoors by a campfire.
