Great Place!
We like the place (we stayed here last year as well). This is the about the 12th year in a row we have stayed in Tahoe). Everything was clean. Great WiFi. Quiet place with great view. We liked the keyless entry (except for them disabling it early — we paid for late checkout and couldn’t get back in prior to check out time). Comfortable bed in master bedroom!

4/10 Poor

Great location, terrible appliances
The kitchen appliances were really old and terrible. The dishwasher was broken so got to "enjoy" hand washing for the entire week. The fridge was probably from the 70s and leaked water into our food (until I figured out the leak location and placed a bowl under it). The coffee maker lasted for two days and then stopped working. The bedroom had a TV but it wasn't connected to anything! The living room TV had the least responsive remote control I've ever experienced. Apart from these issues, the cabin was clean and cozy and we enjoyed our stay and had a nice vacation. But definitely overpriced for the condition it is in.

Good, But Needs Improvements
Stayed here four days for Thanksgiving 2022. Pros: 1) Good location with convenient shuttle to village. 2) Spacious layout with bedrooms downstairs. 3) Gas fireplace is quick, easy & very cozy. 4) Dog friendly. Cons: 1) Dishwasher did not work. We had Thanksgiving dinner & then no dishwasher to help with big cleanup. 2) Sink in smallest bathroom would not drain. 3) Internet (wireless network) info. provided was not correct. Had to use an unsecured network for Black Friday shopping. 4) TV has no cable connection, it uses streaming services only (via wireless network). The Vizio interface is difficult to navigate. You need to know your services (i.e. Netflix) username & password. We had to watch a couple important football games on small iPad. 5) The two bedrooms downstairs are very cold most of the time. To get them warm means the upstairs living room is hot.
