It served its purpose, but all the back bedrooms and bathrooms really need updating. Temperatures control in all the bedrooms was impossible, too hot to sleep. And with the bear issue we couldn’t leave windows open all night! Best feature was the front patio, spent most of our time out there.

Hi , thank you for the honest feedback and for staying with us. I'm sorry the heat made the bedrooms uncomfortable at night. The house doesn't have AC, which we do note in the listing, though we do provide fans to help keep things comfortable. I completely understand it was still a tough night, especially with bears around meaning the windows couldn't stay open overnight. On the bathrooms, 2 of the 4 were recently remodeled, and updating the rest of the house is on our list, so your comments are really helpful as we plan those next steps. Glad you enjoyed the front patio at least! Thanks again for choosing our place. Thanks! Kris

I was very impressed with the cabin as soon as i walked in the door. It was everything i expected.

The owner of the home went out of her way to make our stay special. That meant a lot to the family. The home was fully equipped, had games, wood for fire and other amenities that were helpful. The location was perfect! We could walk or drive to town.

Summer reunion - great fun!!

perfect setup for our family, plenty of rooms and baths, well-equipped with everything to BBQ, cook, breakfast around the table and much more. Lots of laughs, games/cards, pool/ping pong, and shuffle board. We brought bikes and rafts/paddle boards for the lake with room to store in backyard. Fire pit was a fun way to end the days! Only negative, hot tub chemicals were out of balance and terrible smell. And a surprise visit by a bear one night cuz neighbor left their trash outside.

Good but needs a few minor updates

Overall our stay was good but a few things I’d like to see in the future. The pool table was a huge appeal for our large group or 13 but the table was in poor shape and needed to be leveled badly. The beds were pretty uncomfortable across the board. Many in our group left with back pain from some of the old springs digging in. Lastly, if the place sleeps 14 total, I don’t understand why there aren’t 14 bath towel sets and 14 pool towels. I knew thing going in as the listing disclosed this but felt weird. This house overall met our needs but some attention to these three details would round out the property nicely.

Perfect location for a large group!

My friends and I had a wonderful 3-night stay at this amazing home! We had 13 people staying at the home, and a few additional people and their kids stopped by during the day for games and meals. We took advantage of many of the home's amenities including the BBQ grill, televisions, foosball, shuffleboard, and hot tub. Everything worked great! The owner, Kris, is very attentive and provided lots of helpful suggestions on a variety of topics. Echoing some of the other reviews, be sure to bring your own body soap, shampoo, and conditioner. I was also glad we brought a couple extra paper towel rolls and aluminum foil. Also, the driveway fits 5-6 cars, so if you plan to have a large group of people staying at the home, I would highly recommend coordinating transportation to avoid exceeding that limit. We had 5 cars for people staying at the house, and other people staying nearby used Lyft/Uber to come over for games and food. I can't thank Kris enough for opening his home up to my friends and me. I would highly recommend this place to anyone, especially large groups, looking to spend time in beautiful South Lake Tahoe.

Very Bad Experience

Came here for a family getaway and what a nightmare it was. I'll start with the GOOD things: plenty of rooms & bathrooms, nice large yard for the kids to play, ample parking, laundry. BAD: DO NOT USE THE HOT TUB! Everyone who used it developed a rash due to bacteria build up (at least 6 ppl) one of them being my daughter which I took to the dr and was prescribed antibiotics. Most of the pillows were stained and old. I was so grossed out and had to cover ours with something in order to sleep on them. We were told all the bedding were clean. Beds and benches inside the house were unstable bc they rattled and looked like they were going to fall apart if sat on or slept on. Carpet was old and dirty. Sofas were dented in in some areas. Kitchen drawers falling apart. This property needs major upkeep and upgrade. Will not recommend or rent this place again!

As painful as that is to read, I really appreciate you taking the time to write a review so we can learn from our mistakes. I am also truly sorry your family had to deal with this. Vacation rentals that sleep 18 people week after week are different from a residential home in that things get broken / fixed, most often replaced, on an ongoing basis. The things you mentioned happened just a few days prior and we had a new, temporary housecleaner that didn’t report any of the issues to the maintenance team. I am so sorry you had to deal with a broken drawer and a wobbly bench/bunk beds, which is something that would never normally occur. Regarding the bedding we ALWAYS use clean bedding and pillows. Cleanliness is extremely important to us. These are things we regularly replace. In fact, we have a locked supply cabinet at the house containing new linens and pillows, but unfortunately the new (no longer working here) cleaner chose not to replace the pillow. I inspected all of them and found one that should have been replaced. As for the hot tub, that is quite puzzling because it gets professionally cleaned in between each guests stay. We have had hundreds of people over the past few years use it and this is the first time I’ve ever heard of something like this happening (I am sorry!). The weekend you and your family stayed, I had left a note with my phone number and the maintenance number. (It’s also written down inside the house) The day after you checked in, I emailed your group asking how things were going. I personally left a voice mail and our maintenance crew texted the person who rented the house to make sure they had their number handy at all times (we do this with every guest) Had we gotten a single response I would have had someone over there in about 10 minutes to bring it up to our standard, and or potentially offered another property. If you would ever like to follow-up on this, please don't hesitate to contact me directly.

Fun experience for the family

My family and I had a great time at this rental. There was entertainment for the family and loved that the kitchen/living room/play area are all in one room so we could all still spend time with each other while doing other activities. We did encounter an issue with the heater but this did not ruin our stay as Kris was friendly and readily available to help and answer any questions we had. We would definitely stay here again!

July 2021 - disappointing, NOT wheelchair accessible

This is a nice house and can accommodate large groups nicely (lots of bedrooms and bathrooms, lots to do - games, hot tub, etc), but it is advertised as wheelchair/handicap accessible and it is most definitely not. My review is based mostly on that, because my brother is in a wheelchair and we specifically picked this house so that he could join us. There are no steps to enter the house, but there are steps to every bedroom. There was only one shower without a tub, but even that shower had a step to get into it and no safety bars. The toilet was next to the shower with no room for a wheelchair to get next to it. The sinks cannot be rolled up to in a wheelchair. All of these things are required in order for something to be listed as wheelchair accessible. We had to move one of the couches during our stay just so my brother could join us in the living room, and also move the dining table so he could access the kitchen on his own. The deck is too narrow around the hot tub so he could not get past it to sit with us on the deck, unless we helped maneuver him. Aside from that, our first night there it was pouring rain for a couple of hours. There is a leak in the living room ceiling, enough so that we had to put a bowl down to capture the water. It collected about two cups of water over 2 hours. Luckily the weather was nice the rest of our stay. The slide on the play structure was broken, which disappointed my kids. I messaged these things to the owner who simply replied “Thanks for letting me know.” The bunk beds are ridiculously loud (squeak loudly with every slight movement) and uncomfortable. For $600/night, it should be kept up (broken slide/leaky roof). No matter what price, it should not be advertised as wheelchair accessible.

Check in and check out are very easy, owner us easy to access and communicate. Location is good, convenient and quite neighborhood. However furnitures are old, beds are not comfortable, especially the futon and bunker beds. Bathrooms are out dated too, not clean.

The house is professionally cleaned each and every time guest's come and stay per Covid-19 guidelines. Our goal is to make certain guests have a fun experience each and every time. House does have new mattresses and any old worn out furniture gets replaced. Most of our ratings are 5 stars.

Wonderful 3-day weekend in awesome cabin!

Our group of 16 really enjoyed our 3-day stay at this property. We had ages 1 - 60 and everyone had a great time! Pros: plenty of bedrooms & having 4 full bathrooms was awesome; main room had the kitchen and living area with plenty of seating; 3 flat screen tv's was especially nice to watch March Madness games; pool table (converted to a ping pong table); shuffleboard and foosball game; the property was very clean when we checked in; nice size hot tub; great location; not a lot of traffic for nice walks; kids play structure and basketball hoop; and plenty of parking for 6 regular size cars. Cons: Washing machine was dirty (had hair inside and after a full cycle, hair was still there (yuck!); I wish there was just a tad more lighting in corner dining area; some of the mattresses in bunk bed rooms were uncomfortable (so put the kids there). We really enjoyed this cabin and will definitely be back when we have a large group. There was plenty of room and activities to keep everyone occupied. Kris, the property manager was very quick to respond to questions. Thank you Kris for all your help during our stay!

Quiet neighborhood, big house!

We had 4 adults and 7 kids (aged 3-13 yrs) in this house, and there were beds to spare for sure! The hot tub, play structure, and indoor play tables definitely kept the kids occupied between outdoor activities. Smaller kids may need some additional indoor things to do, if watching the cousins isn't enough. :). The house was clean and the owners very responsive, regarding a coffee maker that went kaput and the hot tub that rightfully chose to take a break when the kids splashed out too much water. Minor quibble might be the lack of a cookie sheet in the kitchen, but there were plenty of other cooking dishes to use in a work around. Plenty of eating dishes too. Beautiful spaces for indoor & outdoor gathering. Neighborhood was quiet except for a party group next street over. We would definitely stay here again!
