Great place!

This is a cute little place in the woods. You can tell it’s on the older side but with updates done she right way. I’d guess the floors are close to original but it adds to the charm if you like that sort of thing which we do.

So lovely

We had such a great time at your home. We loved the big windows watching the snow fall. My kids loved the stretch ropes in the back and the sleds. Thank you so much! Ps loved all the blankets, games and coziness. We could have used another pot or two for cooking but all the other supplies in the kitchen were great. Thank you

Awesome spot!

We stayed here for 5 nights - myself, my wife and two young boys (4 & 6). We loved our stay at the Rigi Chalet! It’s in a little neighborhood that is peaceful and quiet. You can walk about 5-10 mins down the road and have 2-3 great restaurants, a wonderful market and access to the HOA beach, which has a stony beachfront and a little park with a playground, volleyball court, and more. It was perfect for our kids. We enjoyed being positioned on the middle of the lake so we could easily access beaches/hikes north and south of us. The deck was awesome for hanging out on after the kids went to bed. Market lights, propane fire pit, comfy chairs. The best!. We hope to be back!

Lovely home with lots of extras for families.

We thoroughly enjoyed our visit at this property. It is well set up to provide everything a family would need as a home away from home. We used the bicycles and lock provided, the wagon and chairs to go to the beach, the beach towels and the fire table. Clearly whoever owns this place has stayed here. It was clean and well set up. Nice kitchen ware and comfortable beds and couch. The only things we would suggest are a sponge for the kitchen ( we ended up using paper towels) and a set of hex wrenches to adjust the bicycle seat ( we found a repair station along the bicycle trail for this). All in all had just about everything we needed. We had great weather so never even needed to use the games but there were plenty of these. If we had kids with us they would have loved the mini zip line and slack line in the back!

Solid rental

Well-stocked kitchen, comfortable beds, good living room set up. House was clean, instructions for everything were good. Only issue - tea kettle in the kitchen was super confusing to use & no manual. Also - would recommend to the property manager that you change out the bright white light bulbs -- the lighting in the house is really rough if you're sensitive to that kind of thing because a lot of the bulbs are the bright/blue light instead of warm lighting. Also, be aware that the shades in the living/dining area are sunshades -- they offer zero privacy at night. It's not like you're in the city, so maybe not that big a deal, but it's a bit odd.

Hi Emily, thank you for sharing your experience with us. We're delighted to hear that you found the kitchen well-stocked, the beds comfortable, and the overall setup of the living room to your liking. We strive to provide a clean and comfortable environment for our guests, and we're glad that you found the instructions helpful. We apologize for the confusion with the tea kettle and the lack of a manual. We'll make sure to provide clearer instructions or consider replacing the kettle with a more user-friendly option. Additionally, we appreciate your feedback regarding the lighting in the house. We'll explore the possibility of changing the bulbs to warmer tones to create a more inviting atmosphere. Thank you also for bringing the issue with the sunshades to our attention. We'll consider alternative window treatments to ensure privacy for our guests. Your feedback is valuable to us, and we'll use it to improve the experience for future guests. We hope to have the opportunity to host you again in the future.

Great place to stay

The home looked just like the pictures. Clean, good shower and good beds. Loved that it was a short 10 min walk down to the private access beach. It is in a quiet neighborhood. I had to text the owner a question and had a quick response.

We felt right at home at this cozy property!

We loved our stay at this chalet in Tahoe City! The location was great! Close to the lake and minutes away from shops and restaurants in town as well as very close to Alpine and Palisades Tahoe! Lots and lots of snow during our stay and we were toasty warm in this house that strikes a perfect balance between rustic and upscale! Can’t wait to go back!

Chic, Cozy Summer Stay

From the initial ease of communicating with the property manager (texting makes it simple!), my family of 4 plus Grandpa had a GREAT stay! The kitchen had every amenity desired; the beds were comfy and clean; there was a fan for every bed (considering how hot it was that was really well-thought out!); super useful washer and dryer PLUS beach gear (wagon, chairs, toys). It was important that we could bike down to Sunnyside and beach and avoid traffic so this is a great place to go if you like to avoid crowds/parking. Very quiet, cute neighborhood to take walks in every night! Enjoyed dinner outside by the barbecue! Hope to be back soon! Can’t say enough… it clearly was professionally decorated - cozy blankets on every chair!

Short Tahoe Vaca

Great time there. Spent most of the days on the water and it was comfortable in the evening. Thought just one bathroom would have been an issue but it worked out well for everyone. So don’t let that stop a good stay.
