It was good and AvantStay was excellent in their replies when a small issue came up with sink. They layout of the house is a little strange - its very narrow/tall and I was surprised by how small the bedrooms were, and there was very little closet space which was challenging.

Hi Katie, It’s fantastic to hear that you had a great experience with the home and received excellent communication from AvantStay. However, it's understandable that air conditioning would be a must for those hot summer days. Your feedback is valuable, and hopefully, it can be addressed to make future stays even more comfortable.

Great location and property for families

Our family thoroughly enjoyed our stay here. The property was great and location was amazing. Super close to bike trail, lake and hikes. House sits on a culdesac so kids can play without worry of traffic. Kitchen could have been a bit better stocked but we like to cook at home so may not be a big deal for others. I would recommend this house to anyone.

Great Family Get Away

Property was generally clean and well appointed. Great for larger group. Just wish they had more emergency equipment (working flashlights, lanterns, generator) as we lost power due to the snowstorm and only had a few candles. Thankfully we travel with flashlights. Otherwise great trip.

Family Reunion - Tahoe style

This house was perfect for our family. We had 10 people and there was plenty of space. The amenities were awesome! Wish there were screens on the main floor windows, as there isn't A/C and it gets very hot during the day. Location was perfect, too. Loved having the hot tub and sauna. What a treat.

Great cabin but small

We had a great time. Kitchen was well stocked - they had all the items we needed. The last night, internet went out until we left that morning. Of note, phone reception is terrible so you would need to connect to WiFi. The house appears bigger in pictures than in person as well. So if you have a max allowable number of people staying, it will be a little cramp.

gathering the family for our parents' anniversary

We planned a family road trip from the LA area to celebrate our parents’ 60th anniversary, and this home was the perfect setting for such a special occasion. The bedrooms upstairs were cozy and comfortable, and the kitchen had everything we needed for home-cooked meals—we made most of our breakfasts and dinners there before and after exploring the lake each day.A couple of highlights: Dad made full use of the jacuzzi (sometimes twice a day!), and our nephew caught five trout on a fishing trip—we grilled them right on the patio BBQ. It doesn’t get better than that.The location was in a lovely quiet neighborhood - I discovered a small trail just a short walk from the house which made for a nice early morning or post-dinner stroll.We’re so grateful to have spent this milestone as a family in such a welcoming, well-appointed home. Thank you for helping make our trip one to remember.

Great place for groups

We had an great time as a group of friends on a ski trip and lots of space to hang out and relax in between. The house is well-stocked with kitchen basics and was great for our trip. Some minor improvements: --We also could not get the sauna above "110" but it felt much cooler than that. Hot tube was great though, and nice to be in a covered space. -- The couches were a little uncomfortable and the seating couldn't fit everyone for a movie night but we split between the 2 TVs up and downstairs most of the time. The shuffleboard was a hit! Overall we had a great time.

Great place for a family or friends to get together

The house was great. The layout seemed a bit funky at first with 3 bedrooms on the 3rd floor, 2 bedrooms on the 1st floor, and the living areas in the middle, but it actually worked out really well. There isn't an AC unit so in hot weather like we had, the 2rd and 3rd floors were a bit warm, but the 1st floor stayed nice and cool. They do have cooling fans in the upstairs rooms which helped a lot. The kitchen was well furnished and had everything we needed to do our own cooking. We ate most of our meals at the large outdoor table (fits 10-12). The area does have bears, so you need to make sure you turn the bear wire on when you leave or go to bed, then turn it off in the morning. It's a very simple process. The one drawback is the washing machine is noisy and you can feel the vibration from it. Overall it's a great place to stay for a large family or group. We had 10 in our group and didn't feel overly crowded. I would rent this place again.

Cozy up, but it's curtains for your privacy.

Overall, our stay was comfortable with a nice cozy feel to the room. The heating system was excellent and kept us warm throughout our visit.However, there were a few drawbacks. The window shades were non existent in the living area, which made it hard to control the light in the room. There was no privacy and it made everyone feel uncomfortable, especially for some photosentive folks prone to migraines. The hot tub, while enjoyable, had a strong chlorine smell that lingered on our skin even after showering.Given the price point, I expected a better coffee experience. The coffee machine provided was subpar, and there was no coffee available at all. Weirdly enough, there were two broken coffee machines in the cupboard. While I don't expect a luxurious welcome basket, basic amenities like coffee should be included. The washer worked great but that drier was soo loud due to the motor being of its mount & the rattling became so prominent as to make watching tv unbearable.We exhausted our supply of toilet paper and paper towels, despite using them judiciously, which is entirely unacceptable. These minor issues slightly detracted from what was otherwise a pleasant stay. Thank you.
