The house was clean and presented as advertised. The kitchen was very well stocked. The location of the hot tub rendered it useless for our group--on the front porch with no fencing or privacy, which was a bummer.

Guy’s Trip

We were looking for a place for our annual Guys Trip and this place was perfect. Had plenty of entertainment upstairs and plenty a room for everyone. It was also easy to get to the mountain and anything around town. Thank you for the great experience.

Perfect for large group.

The house worked out perfectly for the 14 of us and the location and street was wonderful. I would suggest some full length mirrors as there are none downstairs :)

Great for the family

Our family enjoyed the stay, close to Heavenly. There was some stuff we forgot to take, but no worries it had the stuff we needed. Rooms are spacious living area as well the kitchen was a little tight, but other than that we had a great time. The kids saw the landline phone and were in Awe, They said “I thought those only existed in the 1900’s”. Would book again.

70th Bash with Family

The house accommodated our large group. We really loved the neighborhood. Very beautiful and quite. Since we are not a rowdy bunch, the rules on the contract were easy for us to adhere too. The only issue we had was the trash that was already placed in the bins when we arrived. We had to place our trash in the garage. Perhaps someone can go by the house during the middle of the week to pick up extra trash bags and dispose of them.

Perfect house for a large group

The home was very clean. We loved the location! There was a tv in one bedroom upstairs that wasn’t in working order but we were so busy the whole time we were fine with it. We also had a poor experience with a customer service call. When we arrived we noticed the refrigerator wasn’t very cold. When we spoke with Sean from the intake center he explained that it is normal and that it takes a few hours for it to come up to temp. When he hung up he accidentally called right back and had no idea he was speaker phone complaining to someone about the call I had just made. He was very unprofessional but the manager assured me he would be spoken to about his behavior.Overall I would highly recommend staying here Beautiful, clean home close to so many great beaches, Heavenly village and the casinos.

Thank you Samantha. I apologize for the unprofessional experience with our on-call tech. His supervisor is aware and has addressed this with him. Thank you for letting us know. I'm glad you enjoyed the home and time here :). Thank you!

This mountain retreat was perfect for our family stay in South Lake Tahoe! The game room was awesome for the grand children to be entertained when we weren't out exploring. The location was a short drive to restaurants and activities. The backyard was fenced so it was perfect for our dogs to be out off leash. The living space was large enough for us to gather as a group. The EV charging was a big plus for us too!I have saved this rental to use for future trips to Tahoe with my family.
