Very good

Thank you for your feedback. We’re sorry the home did not meet your expectations. We do feel it is somewhat unfair to judge the property based on the surrounding neighborhood, which is outside of the homeowner’s control. The home is centrally located in Kings Beach, with convenient access to the lake, restaurants, shopping, and other North Shore amenities.
Regarding cleanliness, our pre-arrival inspection report and photos show the home was in very good condition prior to check-in, and no cleanliness concerns were reported to us during your stay. Had we been made aware of an issue, we would have gladly sent our housekeeping team back to address it promptly.
Mattress comfort can be very subjective, and this is the first complaint we have received regarding the beds. We certainly understand that not every mattress will be comfortable for every guest, and we appreciate the feedback.
We always encourage guests to contact us during their stay if something isn't right so that we have the opportunity to help rather than learning about an issue for the first time after departure.
This place was perfect for a weekend at the lake with friends! However, the registration process with the rental company was a bit excessive. I don’t agree they need all of the information they requested for just a weekend stay.

Hi there Deanna, we are so glad to hear that you and your friends enjoyed your weekend at the home. I apologize you found the registration process to be tedious, but it is mandated by the county that we receive this information from all guests (believe me, we would love if we didn't have to do this on our end). We try to make this transparent as possible to kind of ease some of the annoyance that may arise- but nevertheless I apologize that this affected your experience with us. You and your guests were wonderful group though and we would love to host you again in the future for your next weekend getaway!

Reviewer Comments:
This rental property looked nothing like was advertised in the photos. No wall coverings different appliances in the kitchen not the same furniture throughout the house. Exterior was a mess piles of leaves and Pineneedles everywhere. Property, managers were terrible. House was not cleaned and ready at time of check-in. No inspection of the outdoor areas lead to a bear encounter in backyard at 2am due to leftover trash from previous renters. Management failed to return our calls. I am military veteran of 30 years and a fairly patient man simply recommend you do not rent this house for the price they are advertising. Manage your expectations.

Cute place, great deck and sitting area. Kitchen had everything we needed to whip up breakfast and dinner , including a Gas grill on the deck. Two bedrooms one with queen bed and second with a Triple bunk bed with full size mattresses. -Could be a challenge for some but worked out well for us (6 guests). Great location in Kings beach, near main road, close to lake, restaurants, casino, and grocery stores. We enjoyed our stay thoroughly. Recommend for small family getaway.

The place was clean and comfortable. We enjoyed eating our meals on the back deck.
Loved this location and the cabin. Will definitely be back. It was mostly just me ans my dog and my partner stayed with me on weekends during my 3 weeks here at the cabin!
We were traveling for work with my family and 2 pooches and this quaint spot was perfect for our needs. The kitchen was well stocked and the triple bunkbeds for my older kids were large and comfortable. Great spot, we'd definitely stay again!
Located a short walk from the lake. This VRBO had everything you need and was very comfortable. Our only suggestion would be more lighting.

Nice
The place was cute. I would suggest putting a pillow top cover over the mattress, the bed was uncomfortable. Also finding the light switches is a little wonky. And unfortunately the neighbors across the street have too many cars and park in front of the house and in dirt driveway.

Ideal location
This cute, 2 bedroom home was perfectly located around the corner from my daughter's home and a short walk to the lake. It was clean and roomy for my husband and me and had an extra bedroom which could sleep another 4 people, but with only 1 bathroom, that would be a little crowded! The kitchen was nice but not well stocked. We had no soup spoons and no cookie sheet. The management company was very responsive to our problems. The wi-fi was not working, and there was no hair dryer.They came out immediately to fix the wi-fi and bring a hair dryer. The first night I had to take a cold shower because the hot water wasn't working, but North Tahoe Rental Co. came out the next morning to fix the problem. When we asked about the broken shade in the master bedroom, we were told the owners knew about it but didn't want to replace it. It would have been nice to be able to open the shade.
