This is an excellent condo for skiers. It's only a few miles from the Alpine and Palisades base areas of Palisades Tahoe. The Mountaineer provides free, on-call shuttle service to the Alpine Lodge Thursday-Monday. The condo itself is modern, clean, and well-equipped. The balcony overlooks the Truckee River. The traffic on Highway 89 can be a little noisy, though. It's an easy walk to the River Ranch, a popular apres-ski bar and restaurant.

Spacious, very close to alpine

Great location and the apartment is very spacious for a 1 bedroom. By the river for summer travel and very close to alpine, served by the mountaineer shuttle which is very convenient. Only issue is kitchenware is old and not super useful. Other than that, great stay

Nice location, outdated condo

The location is perfect if you plan on going to Alpine, and not far from Palisades. The only complaints we had were the lockbox was hard to get into, the bed is SUPER rock hard (luckily we found a memory foam topper under the bed) the shower curtain is dingy and needs replacing. The lamp by the patio didn’t work, and bare minimal food ware. The hot tub was nasty/not cleaned but the sauna was nice.

Great location - condo needs updating

While the location of the condo was great and very convenient to Alpine the condo itself was very much of need of updating. The worst part was the condition of the master bed/mattress. The bed I had in college thirty years ago was much more comfortable. This bed / mattress set might have been older than that. The carpet and couch was dirty and stained. A deep clean and and a very small investment in some inexpensive IKEA furniture would go a long way here. For the prices you're charging, it's something that's way overdue here.

Misleading advertisement

While the complex may be centrally located right off the Truckee River, this unit is on the end of the building about 150 feet off the noisy highway 89 which was very disappointing. Highway coupled with the darkness of the living room made it very uninviting. The bedroom is in the back of the unit, thankfully, so no highway noise, and also no river sounds lulling one to sleep, per their advertisement. The queen bed has a 3" thick tempurpedic pad, which we found okay, but not great. The building and unit were clean and well maintained.

Not as expected

I was really disappointed with the condition of the condo. There was damage to the ceiling in the bathroom which happened due to what looks like mold issues (there was also mold residue on the tile grout). The base boards around the entire condo were filthy, especially in the bathroom. There was what looked to be dried blood spots both on the wall and picture frame in the bathroom. The only window in the condo couldn’t be opened because the shade was broken and a note was left asking that it be left down. The bed frame isn’t secured and one of the canopy beams fell on me while I was laying in bed. The smell in the condo was horrible, it smelled of mold. Overall, the amount spent on 3 nights was not worth it due to all of the issues.

The furniture on the patio was filthy and broken.I have pictures. The patio which I s why we chose this property was dirty and full of cobwebs. The pictures also are miss leading you are right on the main road and that kinda ruined the peace we were looking for. The chair in the living room is broken. If you come to do all the activities that Lake Tahoe offers and then you want to come back chill the furniture is very uncomfortable and it still not what’s in the picture plus bring your own pillows because the ones there are old and hard as a rock.

Limited heat

The owner chose to limit his energy costs. The room temperature of the condo was restricted, using a remote control smart thermostat, to no higher than 65 degrees Fahrenheit. Not good for cold Tahoe winter nights.

Great location for access to Palisades

We stayed here for a ski weekend at Palisades and the place perfectly met our needs. Fully equipped kitchen to cook meals and easy access to the slopes. The only negatives were that a couple of the pots were dirty (it looked like burned on dirty, not unwashed dirty) and we couldn’t find a windshield scraper which would have been helpful to get the snow/ice off our windshield in the morning. Neither of those were deal breakers though and I still strongly recommend the place!

Excellent place and clean condo

It was pretty comfortable place like a house and the cleaning, the reusable items were almost perfect like a good hotel. The scene in our balcony was unforgettable. You can drink your coffee in the balcony and relax by listening the flow of river.
