I stayed in this home at max capacity of 22 people over a weekend in the summer.
Booking Staff:
Joan is nothing less than fantastic. She was extremely knowledgeable, responsive and one of the best people I've ever rented from. She's not the owner and she's managing other properties so I understand the challenges she faces. Would not hesitate to work with her again!
Kitchen:
This house's kitchen is extremely well stocked with plates, bowls, cups, glasses, utensils and cookware. We had 9 people in the kitchen, prepping, cooking and washing dishes. It was crammed but there was a lot of countertop space. We were able to make dinner and appetizers for 22 people easily. There is a second fridge in the laundry room, which was fantastic since we had to have food/drink for 22 people.
Bedrooms:
All very well furnished with clean sheets and dark blinds. All beds are firm and very new. Everyone slept SPLENDIDLY. Funny story, some people couldn't find their way to their beds at night and found that there were no blinds in the living rooms. Sunlight starts pouring in at 545AM!
Bathrooms:
Large ventilated and well stocked bathrooms. Extremely clean and pleasant to shower in!
Common Areas:
TVs worked like a charm. We had some problems figuring out downstairs audio but after a while we gave up. There are TWO living rooms, which was cool if people wanted to watch different things. Floors were heated if necessary but it was the summer so we kept them off.
Patios:
Perfect, clean patio furniture and a gas grill that pulls gas from the house so there is no need to worry about running out of gas. We spent a LOT of time on the patio.
Amazing house, we had an amazing time and considering we were in Kirkwood in the summer, there was no one around so our party ran late into the evening with no complaints. Kudos to the owner for amazing modern yet rustic furniture and furnishings. We were far enough away from Tahoe to be away from the South Lake Hot August Nights riffraff, but we were close enough that we went to Zephyr Cove for the day. I loved the house, worth EVERY PENNY!
I would not hesitate to stay here again!
