As advertised! Comfortable beds, bigger and roomier than we expected!!Yard, kitchen and hot tub were our favorite part. Besides needing some more backyard lighting, this place was perfect for our family of 5 (2 older teens and a 10 year old) and our small dog!

Thank you so much for your feedback of the home and beautiful South Lake Tahoe! We are thrilled that the home was roomier than you expected! We appreciate your feedback about the backyard lighting, and we will pass this along to the homeowner for their consideration. For future guests to note, we are available 7 days a week from 9:00 AM to 6:00 PM PST and are happy to help right away should any issues arise during your stay We hope we can host you again soon!
I generally rent a house in Tahoe every Feb with a group of close friends and family members, and several people said this might be the best house yet. We loved the layout of the home, how clean and cozy it felt, and the location that placed you in a quiet and nice neighborhood, all while being 8 mins away from Heavenly and the Casino nightlife. Will rent again for sure! No complaints other than being told there were trails that basically started right in the backyard of the home that weren't actually accessible because of a swampy marsh, but we still walked the neighborhood and had conversations with some nice homeowners. Still a 5 star experience, hands down!

House was nice and clean. First night several guest got flea bites. Not sure from past guest pets or not? Second, showers got cold fast so we had guest having to take cold showers. Not fun when it’s winter time. Kitchen cabinet doors need some attention. Most don’t close or need a lot of help to close. For the most part we had a good time and enjoyed the place

It was amazing!!! Nice neighborhood with friendly neighbors and views.
The home was very comfortable and spacious. The neighborhood was quiet and friendly and far from the crowds while still being close enough to all the restaurants and stores
We loved our stay! Everything was perfect, worked, was clean, and enjoyable. We were close to a lot of recreation and stores. We loved cooking in the kitchen, hanging out in the big living room, and watching our kids on the climbing wall and in the hot tub. Thank you for a great stay!
House was great. Plenty of room for everyone to sleep. Great kitchen and common area upstairs and kids loved the games downstairs. Easy 10 minute drive to the mountain
We really enjoyed our stay at Cubby Bear and made good use of the amenities including the BBQ which had back up propane which was nice. Having the garage door opener available was really helpful for returning from our ski trips. Would stay here again for sure.
Very clean home with all the amenities! Just a 10min drive to the casinos and shopping. Lots of windows to watch the snow fall. Perfect space for families. Would definitely stay here again.
My family and I stayed here for two nights. It was a lovely home. The kitchen was fully stocked with everything we needed. The fenced yard was a great place for the kids and dog to play. Very comfortable beds and couch. We will definitely be back with more family. There was plenty of room for two families to stay comfortably.
Overall our stay was nice, the property management was quick to fix the screen when we needed.
An outdoor coffee table would be a nice addition for future stays for guests and maybe more outdoor furniture to the backyard for seating to accommodate guests especially to enjoy the hotter summer nights.
Nice property. Easy access to town
The house was just as described. Clean and spacious. Our family of 8 with our two dogs had a wonderful stay. The kitchen was fully stocked for our chef in the family to make wonderful meals. The fenced yard was perfect for the dogs. It was an easy and quick drive to everything! Would stay again!
Immaculate property with great amenities and close to South Lake Tahoe/ State Line and Heavenly. Lots of room- updated appliances
And fully stocked. Management company very responsive. Highly recommend!
Rented the house for a week to ski. It was great! Had one issue with the dishwasher not working, but the company was on top of it and made things right. Would love to stay again sometime.
We had to move to this property after being asked to leave another property being managed by the same company when we reported safety issues. They unfortunately have somewhat of a monopoly on homes in the area. After reporting the safety issues (broken handrail on the front porch, broken bed in main bedroom, coffee machine that had buildup in it that appeared to be mold that we noticed after getting sick) they asked us to leave by 10am the next morning. It was later in the day so we frantically tried to find somewhere new that could accommodate our family. The reservation was immediately accepted on VRBOs end but said we needed to wait and hear from RnR Rentals. We had to pack three kids including a four month old baby up and sit around at local businesses from 10am-4pm because they didn’t even offer early check-in for the inconvenience. When they called me to do their standard phone check-in at around 10am they realized it was us from the other property, the receptionist said, “Oh, I’ll have to call you back,” then hung up. I waited an hour and tried to call back and got no response to my voicemail. They eventually sent the contract and requested payment. Then tried to send an addendum post signing saying everything is as is including a broken burner, etc. I hope the owners reconsider using their services. As far the property goes, it was okay. Loud neighbors with a dog that wouldn’t stop barking and a lot of kids screaming after school. Otherwise okay. Still no refund @1wk
Great house! Nice big garage and plenty of space for everyone. Short drive to store and Heavenly Village.
We liked how the adults and teenagers were able to have their own floor. Good family property. Nice to be able to bring the dog, although it smelled like a dog inhabited home...but what do you do?

Nina, thank you for your review. We’re so glad to hear you enjoyed our home's prime location and spacious living! We appreciate your helpful feedback on the stay. For future guests to know, this is, in fact, a dog friendly home and we love being able to host your furry friends! We hope you enjoyed the rest of your trip to South Lake Tahoe, Nina!
Overall it was good. Some of the basic needs, such a showers (1 out of 3) were not functioning for the first 2 days and one more the last 1.5 days (at that point it was not worth waiting for the repair), also the power outlets stopped working halfway of our stay (again not worth the wait for the repair). The manager kept communicating which it was good. Kitchen was well stocked (a regular coffee machine would be great) Good property but it needs some maintenance

Hi Karen, thanks for your thoughtful feedback on Cubby Bear Cabin. We truly appreciate your patience and understanding as we worked through the repair of the downstairs shower during your stay. While we work very hard to keep everything in top shape, sometimes unexpected maintenance issues do arise in vacation rentals, and we’re grateful for your flexibility. We’re glad to hear you found the kitchen well-stocked! For future guests to note, this home is equipped with a Keurig machine that takes K-pods or reusable grounds filters for coffee. We’ve also shared your feedback on a regular coffee machine with the owners for their consideration. Your input helps us improve, and we’d love the opportunity to host you again for an even smoother stay in the future for your next adventure to South Lake Tahoe!
The management company was very responsive through both phone call and text. The house was clean, felt safe and a great space for the group to relax both inside and outside. The tall trees, quiet neighborhood and proximity to the lake were all great. The kitchen did have some things added to it from the last stay but we still bought some non-stick pans because the ones at the house were not good when cooking with.
