Home is good for families or a moderate size group. Home was very clean. It even has stair gates for safety if you have a young toddler due to the home having 3 floors (1 bdrm/1 bath on top floor, 2 bdrm/1 bathroom on 1st floor, and kitchen/living room on 2nd floor). The living room has a sofa bed. The kitchen has everything you need if you decide to bring your own groceries to cook your own meals. Even though it is right next to a ski resort, we stayed at the property due to its proximity to Lake Tahoe for all 5 nights - all our activities were centered around Lake Tahoe. About a 10min drive to Kings Beach, we were able to drive with ease to the legendary Sand Harbor Beach (best beach IMHO but needs a reservation to go in the morning) and other top beaches/destinations in the area. Has really fast internet/wifi. Our kiddos love the home so much they called it “our lake home.” The host is very communicative, very nice, answered all our questions and was very helpful.Would definitely stay here again for future Tahoe visits.

Ski vacation--3 children 3 adults

Our only complaint is VRBO. This great property should rent without using VRBO who only charged fees and sent e-mails threatening no refund. There were weather issues impacting our check in for which VRBO was useless. Once we were able to communicate with Natural Retreats, everything went well. The unit is well-appointed and convenient to the mountain.

Beautiful lodging in forest setting

Overall, very happy with stay. Beautiful, clean, fully stocked, and comfortable condo in a wooded area NW of Tahoe. The property manager was very responsive to phone calls, questions, etc. My family really enjoyed the stay. The only reason I gave this rating a four is because the property manager forces you to sign an onerous legal agreement that was not disclosed in the VRBO listing. Most of the terms were fine, but some were pretty one sided in favor of the landlord. I called the property manager and said I thought this was not fair since no where in the VRBO listing did it say that a legal contract would be required. They were willing to refund my money, but I didn't want to cancel at that point. Also, not affecting the score, you should be aware that this lodging does not have air conditioning. We were there around the 4th of July and temperatures were hot. Still, at night the temperatures drop quite a bit and there is a fan on the 3rd level. It was a little warm on the 3rd level, but ok. Another minor thing, the property gave no instructions on how to access the condo pool. Finally, if you are coming for Lake Tahoe, we found out later that most of the activity is on the south side of the lake, and that's an hour away. But the location is still great if you want a relaxing location away from the crowds in a beautiful forest setting, and not far from north Lake Tahoe. Also, Lake Donner, close by, has warmer water than Lake Tahoe if you want to swim.

Great home base for ski week

Great location, clean throughout, kitchen well-furnished for family meal prep, excellent internet, everything pretty much as described and/or pictured. Could use a tp upgrade. Otherwise, highly recommended.
