We loved the house. Perfect for extended family get together. Only glitch was hot tub malfunctions. It’s an old hot tub and at its final stages so we politely suggested that they invest in a new one. Especially since it is shown on the very first of 36 pictures of the property.

Great property and good location

We take 2 vacations per year with a family/friend group of 10-15 people. This property was well suited for our stay in Tahoe and the location is ideal for biking, shopping, water sports, and hiking. We really enjoyed our stay.

This is a great house for a large family gathering. The kitchen is great and the kitchen table is large and comfortable. From the photo of the house I thought the house would be more secluded but it is close to other houses. Not a big deal and the back of the house, you feel secluded and it seems very private. The house is close to a trail that is great for family hikes. The house felt very clean but the carpet on the stairs and a small section of the 1st floor needs to be replaced. The area rugs need replacing or cleaning. The house is ideally located close to retail (Safeway) and restaurants. The only negative was that the furniture in the pictures was not accurate. The 3rd floor had no beds. That cause a real scramble to find out where everyone would sleep. Having inaccurate photos is not fair to your guest. Overall, everyone had an excellent vacation with lifelong memories.

Spacious and comfortable, close to the lake

We had a very nice stay at this home. There was plenty of space for our group of 12. There were a few minor maintenance issues, but the property management was very responsive to address them. We enjoyed being able to walk to the lake or to a cafe or to play mini-golf.

Tahoe house

The house was spacious and fit our family reunion well. There was a lot of wear and tear of this home and the beds were mediocre. We loved being near the lake and being able to make meals at home or walk down to Gar Woods restaurant. It was also nice to have the fenced porch if you have a dog.

Roomy house near the lake

We had a great time at this large home near the northwest shore of Lake Tahoe. Walking distance to a nice little beach for the grandkids. The dining room table accommodated all 12 of us for our family reunion, and the bedrooms were roomy and comfortable. We enjoyed the hot tub and outside seating. The only knocks on the property were deferred maintenance by the managers, dirty carpets with some impressive stains, and a worn out too-large couch that crowds the living room.

This house accommodated all 14 of our family, and a dog, easily, and comfortably. It has wonderful gathering spaces, a huge kitchen table for shared meals and an abundance of bathrooms. It is a block and a half from the lake. We enjoyed beach days, hiking , white water rafting and mountain biking while staying in the area. The kitchen was well equipped. The separate, but connected, living space above the garage, and the third floor suite, were perfect for my adult kids who had kids. It gave them ample space and privacy and quiet for kid’s nap times. The management company responded to our questions and needs promptly. I would rent it again in a heart beat, and would recommend it to others.

Property Managemenr Unresponsive, Property not maintained well

This was our second time at this property. First time under this property manager. We are a family of 12 that paid a premium to stay at this property over Thanksgiving weekend. We arrived on Tuesday to find the oven doesn’t work. After several messages to the “issue line” maintenance came out to confirm that it doesn’t work and that it wasn’t fixable until after the weekend. After several more messages, we got a call from someone at the property mgmt company offering a sizable refund to stay or full refund to find another place on our own. After 5 days we still do not have a resolution and the company has stopped responding to us. We also notified them of a mouse infestation that we had to go buy traps for and handle the dead rodents. No response on this. The kitchen is scarcely stocked. Several lightbulbs were out. We made do but trying to feed 12 people without an oven was challenging and we are extremely disappointed at the lack of response to the issues. I will be contacting VRBO and my credit card company.

We loved our stay! Location, location, location

Fantastic large home with plenty of bathrooms for all. Location for us could not be beat. The lake and one of our favorite places, Garwood's, is just down the street! We never got in our car to go anywhere! Loved the back patio area, which was private. Well stocked kitchen, and we cooked a lot! The kids loved the ping pong and foosball tables, as well as the private areas for them to congregate. The Top floor master suite was perfect for my daughter and her young children! The only comments that don't receive five stars is the somewhat dated and not very clean big couch in the living room and the neighbors construction and house painting on both sides that prohibited parking a bit because of overspray concerns. The construction workers and painters worked both Saturday and Sunday. Oh well. Other than that, we would definitely rent again. We had a great time and want to go back tomorrow!!😊 Thank you!!!!

Very flexible layout to accommodate a variety of needs: comfort, privacy, work remote and relax/relax/relax. We had 3 generations present, each w/ differing needs and the flexible layout was much appreciated. Excellent north shore location. For the few needs that arose during our stay, communication w/ owner/mgmt co. was seamless and response time v quick.

Ski Vacay

Everything was great except a few non-working features caused a lack in the amenities provided. The dryer, hot tub and dishwasher worked sporadically or not at all. It was a holiday weekend so finding help to repair them was not possible. We stayed in touch with the management company and were compensated for the lack of features. It was a beautiful location and property and we ended our stay happy with their concessions.

Boarding in Tahoe

This house was a great fit for our group - 10 adults, including three couples. Everyone had their own room and bathroom. No waiting for bathroom/ shower. The kitchen was spacious and well equipped. The location was great - close to dining, shopping, and most importantly, the north lake resorts. This was our first time staying at north lake and the lack of crowds was great. I definitely prefer the quiet north lake towns over the crowded south lake area. I would recommend this property for any group up to 12 people.

This was a beautiful home with so many amenities. We visited the property in January and got to experience snow. There were 11 of us. The kids loved the game room and ping pong table. I loved that there was enough seating in the kitchen for us to eat together. Can we talk about the bathrooms? Amazing... each room had a bathroom!!! We walked to the lake and picked up pizza from a restaurant nearby. It was a great trip filled with priceless memories with grandpa grandparents!

Beautiful, large comfortable home

We had a great time with extended family. The house was clean and very well stocked with just about anything you would need. Great location, close to everything Lake Tahoe has to offer. The only downside was that the outdoor furniture was not available (seemingly locked in a shed) and the hot tub never got warm enough despite recommended pre-warming. Otherwise we would 100% stay here again!
