Wonderfully, cozy month-long stay. Holds a special place in my heart!
This house was the perfect spot for us to stay for a month in Tahoe to enjoy ski season. It was in a cozy neighborhood, walking distance to Steamers and the Hangar, a couple of our favorite bars, and just a few minute drive to other essentials in South Lake. The house itself was cozy, warm, and just spacious enough. It came with most cooking utensils, but no other essentials (e.g., no spices, olive oil, etc.), so I'd note to bring those. Wifi was good.Check-in was easy enough. I had some confusion regarding the snow removal situation, but guest services was quick to answer my questions. The only issue we ran into was a strange noise coming from the furnace. But, again, guest services was quick to help and a maintenance guy was able to come and fix the issue in less than 24 hours (needed to clean the furnace filter).Overall, it was a wonderful stay! I will cherish my fond memories of reading by the fireplace and our overall relaxing stay.

Charming!
I honestly thought this unit might be a little too dated b/c the appliances look older but I was completely wrong. This unit is well appointed, we had literally everything we needed, especially in the kitchen. Of course, we are no chefs, but we lacked for nothing. The location was phenomenal, literally no more than 15min away from anything in South Lake Tahoe. The place was spotless! Yes the carpets are not brand new, but they still have a lot of life left in them and IMO they were clean. And, I loved the eco-friendly toiletries! Additionally this unit is pet friendly and they even had a doggy bowl for our furr-baby.
I saw another reviewer complain about the king size bed, that was not a problem for us at all. The wifi was also excellent, even during a very heavy winter storm - we both worked from home and we were both able to take zoom calls simultaneously, in case you are wondering how 'good' the wifi was.
Also, the Vacasa team was super responsive with the one little issue we had.
All in all we had a fantastic time and I'd absolutely recommend Sky Meadows Charmer to anyone.
