Other notes:
Horse shoes and corn hole are available for outdoor play during warm weather months.
As of July 2022, we have a new internet provider that does not require a satellite, so we now have excellent internet service that also allows streaming movies.
4WD or AWD with vehicles with good tires are required during winter months, even when chains are not required on the main roads, due to potentially icy driveway conditions.
Placer County short term rental regulations no longer allow use of the barbecue due to fire danger, sorry.

Thank you so much for the stay! The space was large and gorgeous and had a nice game room to hang out. Host was communicative and friendly and gave clear instructions on check in and check out.
Absolutely stunning property!!!! Excellent communication with host! Would definitely stay here again and highly recommend it to anyone looking to stay in the Tahoe area.
Great place to stay. Private, plenty of parking amenities were amble. We had a large group. Plenty of room to hang out and spread out for 12-14 people.Would recommend and most likely book again!
My friends and I had a great time at this stay. Check-in procedure was easy and straightforward and the host was responsive to all my questions. The location was great for access to Palisades. Would love to stay here again!
The home was amazing! Even better than advertised. We've stayed at quite a few VRBO's and this home had everything in terms of quality kitchen appliances/tools, access to additional towels, pillows, etc. The communication with the owners was fantastic. Would highly recommend.
We had a group of 10 from out of state stay here and everyone was stoked on the house and location. Out of the way but close to everything, well stocked and easy to deal with. The pictures don’t do it justice. 10/10 will book here again.
Our family went up for a family vacation and for a wedding. The house is everything you see as advertised. Check in and checkout are super easy, communication with the owner is fantastic. Very responsive, very accommodating. We are already planning our winter vacation for this location. Enjoy! We sure did!
We were 3 families staying for a long weekend with kids from 4-16. The property was clean really nice. We were able to cook dinner 2 nights and Palisades was very close. The kids loved staying in the rec room where there were a lot of activities for them in there. We would stay here again.
Overall, had a great stay at this property. We are a family of 11 folks and had an excellent time during thanksgiving. Check in process was easy, good area to walk the pets out and lots of beds for folks to sleep comfortably. Would luv to rent again in the future.
Amazing cabin with every appliance and amenity that we could have hoped for. My step mom was also impressed with the selection of board games stocked in the house. Very communicative host. No problems at all!
Everything as represented. I have done several VRBO’s and to me the most important thing is communication with the owner/manager. In this rental it was great, always prompt and helpful. I have no trouble recommending this property.
Stayed with our family for the weekend. The house was huge, plenty of room and had everything we needed. There was a power outage late at night and Kevin was quick to respond when I messaged him! The only con was there were a few little critter bugs in the basement that appeared on my cousins pillow and in the basement bathroom. Other than that, it was great for a large group!
Large enough for our extended family and very private! Be aware that you may need 4WD to make it up the driveway depending on the weather. The cabin is very well equipped. The internet service can be spotty, but there is TV service.

As of fall 2022, we have a new internet provider that does not use a satellite, so we now have excellent Wi-Fi service.
We have 3 children under 12 and they loved the house. It is spacious. They loved the game room. We wanted to take our kids snowboarding for the first time and it was a 5 minutes drive to Palisades. The directions where great, the host has excellent communication. We would love to come back. We highly recommend!
Great property. Was hot at night and weren’t allowed to open all the windows and no access to AC (if there was one?). Wi-Fi wasn’t working, but owner also communicated that beforehand and apologized. Overall great stay! Will look into staying again in the future. Thank you!

We have a new internet service provider that does not rely on satellite, so we now have excellent Wi-Fi. I don't think any houses in the area have AC, but most of the windows at the house can be opened and we have portable fans available for those exceptionally warm days.
About the host
Hosted by Kevin Dill
We are architects in San Francisco and designed and built this house in 2006. Raising two boys in the city, we have always known the importance of getting away to the wonderful outdoors that the Tahoe area has to offer. We started the boys skiing, fishing and hiking when they were 2 years old and they still enjoy the same activities today as young adults. With the boys now grown, we have the opportunity to open our home so that other families can partake in the same enjoyment that we have had over the years.
Why they chose this property
This property is conveniently and centrally located. About equidistant to Truckee and Lake Tahoe (Tahoe City), and only 1.5 miles to the Palisades/Squaw Valley entrance, this location is ideal. The house is designed for families or groups and is very spacious. It has been designed in the Tahoe vernacular and built majestically into the hillside to capture the view. Top of the line kitchen appliances and large dining room create a great opportunity for family and friends to dine together.
