We loved our stay at CreekSide Manor! The kitchen is well stocked with cookware and appliances. Beds are super comfy, and a massive plus was that each room has its own bathroom. Fav features were the wood burning fire place and hot tub right by the “creek,” which is really and truly more of a babbling brook. Verizon service wasn’t great, but the house WiFi worked very well!

The house was lovely and in a beautiful location. Much prettier than I expected. Everything was very clean and orderly and the kitchen accommodated cooking multiple meals easily. The hot tub was not very hot and I felt a little nickel and dimed on the early check-in/late checkout process. That’s the only reason I don’t give full 5 stars- it just felt corporate.

This is an excellent family or large group facility. Beds were very comfy and bedding great and plentiful. Bathrooms are lovely, multiple and varied. Towels a plenty there and for the hot tub, kitchen needs more. Having bathroom and laundry soaps, shampoos and conditioners, as well as tp was a generous plus. Laundry was nice and efficient. Kitchen has plenty of amenities for but needs a bit more organization. Storage containers for leftovers are sparce. Hot tub placement is sweet.

Beautiful Location

We had a wonderful time at our rental, set along the river with beautiful views and sounds. There was more than enough space for our group of 7, with plenty of well stocked amenities in the kitchen and bathrooms. There is WiFi and a smart TV. Lots of lines, blankets, etc. A few items I would recommend would be to have an emergency preparedness kit on hand, the power went out several times and we had no candles, batteries, flashlights, etc. The couches are well loved and slanted when you sit on them/uncomfortable. Cleaning supplies - a broom, counter cleaners, more of those items would be really good. And the grease filter needs to be changed on the range hood (when you're in the kitchen, the grease smell can linger).

Beautiful home for a large family to stay together

We stayed in the beautiful home on a creek to ski Palisades and Alpine. It easily fit our family with teens and extended family. The kitchen and extra large dining table are great for meals and games. It has easy access to both ski resorts and to the Truckee river and west shore of the lake. Would for sure stay here again.

Wonderful Creekside Setting

Large comfortable home perfect for three to four couples to enjoy. Large dining room table and comfortable beds. Listening to the creek at night while sleeping was an added plus. Many useful appliances. Advice to management and future guests.— Bring your own condiments, kitchen towels and sharper knives. Would stay here again.

4 The Creek side house

The Creek side house is big and beautiful. Our family loved the creek and soaked in it after every hike.The sound of the water is lovely. The kitchen is well equipped, although some sharper knives would be good. The stove and barbecue on the kitchen deck are excellent. The dining table can host 14+ people for meals. There are 4 bedrooms and a loft and most beds are king sized. With a few improvements, we would stay there again.

5 star at creek side

This is our third time and second thanksgiving at Creekside. We've made so many memories there and love accommodations as well as how quality your service is. We will book direct in future. The new floors and paint were great! I think that refrigerator door should get repaired. It's been tough all three times. Spa is fantastic. Maybe invest in a meat cooking thermometer and a keurig. But just love you all. Thank you!!

Amazing Stay!

Great ski getaway with the family. Plenty of room for the three kids to spread out and attend online school in the AM and ski in the afternoons. Convenient location minutes from Alpine and Squaw. Kitchen is stocked with every appliance you could ask for and enough plates, dishes, etc. for big groups. Everything was really clean, beds were comfortable and the bathrooms had heated floors! (A nice bonus in the winter.) Only slight inconvenience was the speed and consistency of the wifi service. All in all, great place and I would definitely recommend.

Great - but...

Perfect for large families. Everyone had their own rooom/bathroom, which was great. Kitchen was overstocked with cooking gadgets, but no room to store food. (5 rolling pins?) We were all really looking forward to the hot tub after skiing, but it only was able to heat to 99 degrees, which made it completely unusable. A warm bath outside was not ok. Overall, we made it work and had a great time, but some upkeep is needed.

Great location to Squaw and Alpine Meadow Ski Resort

Great space for our group of 9, Each bedroom had their own private bath. Lovely view of the creek. Kitchen does need to be declutter. Knifes are not sharp, pots/pans need to be updated. Crockpot should be large to accommodate large groups. No kitchen towels. Also note: if it snows, the renter is responsible to clear the driveway and decks.

Nice Alpine Meadows rental

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Great place, nice location with creek in back and hot tub that was on and ready when we arrived. Lots of windows which enhances the great view. The only disappointment for us was they need to upgrade the wi-fi. Its really slow and sometimes doesn't work at all. Would help since cell phone service with AT&T doesn't work at this cabin. Also, more bathroom towels would be helpful.

Beautiful snowy getaway

Loved our week here - location was great (close to Alpine of course but also easy access to Tahoe City and Palisades). The hot tub surrounded by snow with the sound of the creek right behind it was a huge hit for the family. The open kitchen/dining/living was perfect for us - we cooked up many meals, played board games, and enjoyed the Tahoe vibe. The views out the many large windows was spectacular. There was SO MUCH SNOW this year and we were grateful for the driveway being plowed but this usually happened in the late afternoon so plan on digging out the driveway to get your car out of the garage if you want to get out for the day. We had issues with the water heater not working but the property management team was responsive and excellent and my understanding is that the owner is replacing it so shouldn't be an issue for future stays.

The house and linen were dusty.

The house is beautiful but dusty. We all have our allergies flared up. The linens and blanket smell like damp and dusty as well. The bed was so hard and uncomfortable. All of us weren't able to have a good night sleep. This trip was for relaxation and away from work. We all end up sick and body aches. Im wondering if they really disinfected the place for COVID 19 regulations. I am very disappointed for the price that we paid for what we experienced renting this home.

Dirty, plumbing issues, and unorganized property management

My husband and I formerly held a ski lease with Tahoe Getaways, and continue to be disappointed in working with them. They are unprofessional, disorganized, their properties are dirty, and more often than not having serious issues with their houses (in this case the plumbing). The carpets were badly stained and the bedding that was on the beds hadn’t been washed. We found blood stains as well as a crusty substance on 4/7 beds. There were no dish towels so we had to buy some from Safeway. The tub water for 2 bathrooms never ran and made a loud screeching sound when turning it on but failed to work. There was hair and dirt in the showers and on the floors. The list goes on. When we reached out to extend our stay due to the storm, I didn’t receive a response for quite some time. After letting me know they had other guests that didn’t cancel the reservation, we decided to leave Saturday instead of Sunday and I let them know via voicemail. On Sunday I received 5 separate phone calls from their team - all who clearly hadn’t spoken to each other and had completely different messages for me. Some staff said that we could stay if we were still there because they hadn’t heard from the new guests, some staff said we needed to leave, but all staff clearly hadn’t taken any notes. Incredibly unprofessional and disorganized.
