Nice stay at the Challies Chalet. Property was nice and close enough (drive) to the local private beach (passes are supplied). We have Family that have a place on Pine which is why we chose to stay here. The property is located at the top of a steep hill that would be difficult to walk up, not a big deal for us but worth noting. Property was well equipped, had plenty of room, was clean and had everything you need for a nice stay. The only issues we had, which unfortunately is what you remember, were with the neighbors. Nothing too big, but on the first night we received a noise complaint from the Rental Company that we were "partying" at 2am, it definitely was not us as we were a smaller group of families with young kids and were all asleep by 10pm. Could have been a mistake, but there were only 2 other properties located by us. Secondly we moved a car out off the end of the driveway to let another car leave, parking across the street. The adjacent neighbor immediately came to tell us "only locals are allowed to park on the street". I get it there are rules, but we are talking minutes. The same neighbor also had 2 trucks and 2 bobcats parked on the street. I am not certain, but pretty sure this is the same neighbor who made the noise complaint. Seems like they just don't like short term renters in their neighborhood.

Beautiful Stay in Tahoe City

We really enjoyed our stay in this home. It is lovely, and sits in a nice neighborhood close to the Lake. The location was a few minutes from the restaurants and shops of Tahoe City, but very quiet. We were surprised by the bear wires, given that we had never traveled to the area before, but got used to them quickly. I would happily recommend this home to others.

Perfect start to 2025 in Tahoe City!

We had a wonderful time staying at this property from Jan 1-4th. The house is in a relatively convenient location for skiing in Palisades. The roads were plowed promptly during during a storm that came through, so we never had any issues getting to the house or leaving from it. The kitchen was well appointed, making it easy to home cook meals for our group. We enjoyed hanging out around the upstairs dining table and down in the game room. One small note (not a problem, but may be relevant to some groups) - the bedroom with the queen bed has the door to access the garage in it. So, we were frequently walking through that room.

Beautiful home and very quiet neighborhood

Beautiful home in very quiet neighborhood. Located quite high up the side of a mountain area. Home had all the amenities we could possibly want however, the TV Wi-Fi was a bit spotty. Property management was very very helpful. I thank them for their hospitality. We would definitely stay in this home again of course it’s in one of the most beautiful places in the world, Lake Tahoe.

Awesome Tahoe Rental

We had an incredible stay! The house was awesome for our family of 5, and my parents joined us for a couple of days. Great location. The Sauna and pool table were fantastic. The bedrooms were great, and the beds were comfy. The dining area fit our family and my brother's family very nicely. The only slight drawback was the Smart TV in the main area was a bit dated, and didn't have Disney or Apple TV app options for the kids. Otherwise, everything was top-notch. Would happily stay there again.

Loved our stay!!!

We really appreciated staying in this beautiful and cozy home, very well situated, not a far drive from skiing at Palisades. Everything was terrific and very comfortable. This home is well appointed and there was plenty of space for our family of five. It was a welcoming place to return to after our days of skiing. Our young adults loved the pool table and sauna. Views of the pines were spectacular from the many windows, especially after the snow storm. We would recommend this home to any of our friends!
