We loved the location on the northwest part of Lake Tahoe. Very close to modern conveniences but quiet and private at the same time. We loved the view, but were bummed to be stuck inside by the late May snowstorm. Gray days and little visibility put a damper on our trip. Temps were too low to be outside on the deck but too late in the season for skiing (and we had none of our ski stuff with us anyway, because we expected more spring hiking than skiing). We had some funky television issues (closed captioning that wouldn't shut off, remotes that don't work well) and there is not much channel variety if you do find yourself stuck inside for three days. There are plenty of games to bide your time and the kitchen is well stocked with dishes, etc. It's clear that this is someone's vacation home, which we loved. Made it much more homey and functional. We will return to Tahoe, but we don't recommend going until mid-June if you want warm temps and pretty, clear views.
