Everything about our stay was amazing & honestly exceeded our expectations!! Great location within a quiet neighborhood & easily walkable to coffee, lakefront, food, bike rentals, etc. The house was well-maintained and kitchen was stocked with essentials. Plenty of extra pillows and nice blankets to use. The hot tub was a great addition! Very clean and comfortable, we would love to stay again. One (picky) suggestion for this property— there are not any blinds or curtains in the bathroom or living room which makes privacy an issue at night.

Cute little rustic style property for a quick getaway. Everything was just as described, property backs up to national forest. Loved sitting in the hot tub with the view of the stars. Property was very comfortable, had everything we needed. We will definitely book this property again in the future!

Our stay here was great, the house was clean and comfortable. We enjoyed staying in Tahoe City which has alot of food and shops. The hottub was enjoyable during the late afternoon, and the backyard was very peaceful. The only downside was the host notified us right before check-in that the dryer was broken and would not be fixed during our stay. This caused quite the inconvenience as we had to spend time at the laundromat and spend around 30 to wash our clothes. Other than that we had an amazing stay and can’t wait to explore more of Lake Tahoe!
