We had a great time in Carnelian Bay. This place is located near the woods and also just a short walk to the lake. We walked to the lake daily and even got to see a bear in the woods behind the unit.

The perfect location for a wedding at Jake's on the Lake, it is literally a short walk to the lake and restaurants. We really enjoyed the smallbalcony we sat and had coffee and a glass of wine. We cooked in the kitchen one night, which was well appointed. We loved all the personal touches, the welcome package and the comfy bedding and beds. This was a great value and was completely updated. We did not use the pool or other amenities however we did walk around them and they were very well maintained.

Lovely getaway!

We had a great experience here! Our family loves to cook and the kitchen was well-equipped. The fireplace was very cozy and we enjoyed the amenities of the in-unit laundry and dishwasher. One recommendation would be to offer more comfortable mattresses and bedding. Overall a great stay!

Perfect for families!

We are a family of 6 and this condo was perfect for our vacation. Pros: washer/dryer, spacious main bedroom (we were able to comfortably fit our pack and play), pool and hot tub, short walk down to the lake, parking is easy, hiking trails, full kitchen. Cons: no bbq, the downstairs toilet wouldn’t always flush. We would definitely return to this condo!

Good Location in North Tahoe!

We enjoyed our time here! Very close to Diamond Peak where our kids were skiing. The kitchen was well-equipped and clean. The gas fireplace was easy to turn on and off and added a feeling of warmth to the living room. The bathroom door handle fell off on Saturday night and the management company was able to send someone within 30 minutes to fix everything which was impressive and greatly appreciated. The only issue was the hot tub closed at 4pm meaning we couldn't enjoy it at the end of the day. Overall, nice spot!

We are always excited to hear our guests enjoyed there time in North Lake Tahoe! We love the way the fireplace at this property gives the condo a warm winter feeling. Thank you for letting us know about the door handle and giving us the opportunity to get that fixed for you. Sorry about the hot tub hours, they sometimes change due to the time of year, but hope you got the chance to enjoy it before 4. Looking forward to hosting you again in the future. Thank you, Tahoe Rental Company

Typical Tahoe rental

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was more than happy with the location. I was somewhat dissatisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I do not recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We had a good time in Tahoe where we have visited many times but it always amazes me how most of our rentals are in drastic need of updating.The furniture, appliances, bathrooms are right out of the 70's or 80's. This is definitely a Tahoe phenomenon which I'm assuming is due to continued demand that allows the owners to get away with it. This condo was poorly appointed with a bare minimum of kitchenware.I have no complaints against Tahoe Rental Company who are nothing but professional and available during emergencies such as losing the key (guilty). One phone call and we were able to get in 5 minutes later.I will use them again.
