We came to Tahoe for a wedding and needed a place for our family and a few relatives. This home was very clean, had a well equipped kitchen and plenty of space for all. The neighborhood was quiet and so beautiful. We would definitely stay again.
We enjoyed a fully furnished home located in a quiet neighborhood with beautiful tall trees all around. The kitchen had everything we needed to cook and the bedrooms were all very nice. No doubt we would stay here again!

This beautiful home was cozy and comfortable, with all the amenities we were looking for—including a fireplace! It was spacious enough for our whole group and checked all our boxes. Conveniently close to town for entertainment, yet peaceful enough to stay in and enjoy the serenity that Tahoe has to offer. We really enjoyed this charming and spacious home and would definitely recommend it!

Reviewer Comments:
The Grand Cabin Paradise rental lives up to its name! From our first interaction until checkout, the host was informative, friendly, and delivered everything as promised and more. The cabin is spacious and well equipped, with comfortable furnishings, beautiful living and sleeping areas, nice amenities, and modern touches while keeping the woodsy feel with the lovely gas burning fireplace and retro decor. Convenient to town and skiing, but away from main roads and traffic, it has a neighborhood feel. Since it is located a few roads in, having a 4WD vehicle is essential if conditions include heavy snow or ice. Keeping in mind the cleaning crew needs time to prep the home for guests, even an hour earlier/later for check-in/check-out would be nice, especially to accommodate the host’s reasonable and minimal requests. We thoroughly enjoyed our time here and appreciated the extra touches, nice bath products, generous towels, enough seating for all in the living room and dining area, the games cupboard, and if we had little ones, they would have enjoyed the snow saucers in the garage! Highly recommend this lovely property and this responsive, trustworthy host!
The beds weren't the most comfortable in the world, and make sure to bring eye masks. The water pressure in the upstairs shower was so strong it felt like standing under a thousand needles.
That said everything else about the house was wonderful and we really enjoyed our stay.
We stayed in the winter, and we definitely want to return sometime in the summer to fully enjoy the backyard

TJ, thank you for your review. We’re so glad to hear you had a wonderful stay with us and are excited to host you again this summer! We appreciate your feedback also. Mattresses are tricky because what may be comfortable to one person might be uncomfortable to the next. We have inspected all mattresses and the water pressure in the shower to make sure everything is good to go for future stays. Thank you again for staying with us TJ and we hope you enjoyed your time in beautiful South Lake Tahoe!
Our stay at this property was absolutely perfect. We traveled with our family from Hawaii to experience a White Christmas. The house was just as it was featured In the photos. The living area was open and comfortable. The fireplace came in handy for the cold weather. The kitchen was well equipped with pots and pans, which was great since we cooked most of our meals. Everything was very clean with cleaning supplies on hand if needed. The location was perfect for commuting to Heavenly, not more than a 15 minute drive. The yard was spacious and we got to play in the snow in the front yard. Overall we were very satisfied with the home and would definitely stay there again.

Great spot for our family of 7. Plenty of space to sprawl out and also make meals. Extensive sets of dishes and cooking supplies. A few suggestions: swap washer dryer door, remove shelf at end of garage steps(pinch point), and make mention of no AC for those of us coming from warmer climates and used to a cool home, a fan for ach room, and the light switches could be labeled?

Joshua, thank you for your thoughtful review! We’re glad the space worked well for your family and that you found the kitchen well-equipped. We appreciate your suggestions and will work on those improvements. This home does not have AC, which is good information for future guests to note. Air conditioning is certainly a rare find in Tahoe, which is why we provide portable fans in every bedroom. For future guests, we always recommend leaving the blinds closed during the day, then opening the windows in the evening to let in the brisk mountain air. Labeling the light switches is a great idea, and we’ll consider that as well. We hope to host you again and provide an even better experience for your family Joshua!

Overall, our we enjoyed the home. There were, however, Teo issues with the property. First, three of us were stung by wasps that live in the block wall adjacent to the entry steps. Secondarily, the floor on the main level was not clean upon arrival. It's a good home that easily accommodated the six of us.

Neil, thank you for your feedback! We’re glad you enjoyed the home and that it accommodated your group well. We maintain a very high standard of cleanliness and apologize that you came across an item that was not to your satisfaction. We have notified our cleaning staff to make sure to address these issues for future stays. We have also had pet control out to address the wasps. Thank you for staying with us Neil and we hope you enjoyed your time in beautiful South Lake Tahoe!
All of us agree the property was in a good neighborhood and close to everything within a few minute drive.
However, the outside sitting areas in the yard had plastic chairs that were all broken. The covers over the patio furniture was ripped and allowed water to collect on everything rendering all of the outside seating useless.
The home itself had four bedrooms and enough space for all six of us to feel comfortable for several days.
There was not enough toilet paper and paper towels.
Additionally, there was not enough towels for a group of six, we had to wash multiple times which is nice.
There was no hose on the property to wash our bikes and shoes after hiking and biking from getting them all muddy from the trails.
We would stay there again, however we would expect the seating areas outside to be updated with usable seats and better covers on the patio seating.

Michael, thanks for your review. We’re glad to hear our spacious home was comfortable for your group and that you enjoyed its incredible location. We appreciate your feedback on the home, and apologize for the condition of the backyard furniture and lack of a hose. We have discussed with the owners about replacing these items to make your next stay more comfortable. For future guests to note, we provide a generous amount of toilet paper and paper towels, but if you have a larger group or are staying for an extended period of time, you may need to purchase or bring replacements. Also, we provide a full set of bath, hand and washcloths, plus 2 beach towels for every bedroom. We do encourage guests to use the laundry in the home if you would like to refresh your towels. For any future stays, please give us a call if you are having any issues/ or have any requests for the home and we will help troubleshoot right away. Thank you for staying with us Michael and we hope you enjoyed your time in beautiful South Lake Tahoe.
Tahoe conditions are hard to predict when booking!
We were planning a ski weekend with friends and had booked this house and some ski lessons for our newbie skiers. Unfortunately, with the record NYE snowfall, roads and resorts suddenly being closed, we barely got to play in the snow, and instead spent a bit of time clearing snow. Otherwise, the house was great, if a bit overpriced given the additional fees and the new tax rate effective in 2023 imposed by the management company. The house itself is very nice and since we spent a lot of time indoors, we got to take advantage of the gas fireplace, the ample well-stocked kitchen, and the common areas hanging out and playing games with friends. There weren't enough dining chairs for our 8 guests, so we had to utilize the island bar area when we shared meals. The thermostat seemed to be on the top floor, so when it was warm upstairs (because the fireplace was on), it was rather cold downstairs where three of the bedrooms are. All appliances worked well, and the internet was a work-horse since were trapped indoors a lot of the time. Overall, it is a really great house not far from where we wanted to be, but barely made it to!
The vrbo part of the booking was seamless. We've never stayed at a property that has a separate property manager company - RnR in this case - so it's not clear if there were any hiccups. There were extra fees and security deposits associated with the management company taking over the booking, but overall, it worked out ok. It was clear who to contact with problems - including when the power went out for 5 hours and we needed to find some lanterns/flashlights/candles.

Mirella, thank you for your review. We’re so glad our home’s fully equipped kitchen, beautiful fireplace, and big comfortable living spaces made for the perfect place to hunker down and enjoy family time during the storm. For future guests to note, VRBO is an advertising site for owners and/or Property Management Companies. When you book one of our homes through the VRBO website, you are working directly with RnR Vacation Rentals for the full duration of your stay. All of the taxes and fees are listed when you book on VRBO, so there are no surprises. We apologize that the tourism tax for El Dorado County was increased January 1, 2023 and that impacted your reservation. The taxes that you paid go directly to our city or County. For future guests to note, the dining room table seats 6 guests plus additional bar stools for extra seating, and we provide additional space heaters in each bedroom if needed. If anything else arises, we are available to help resolve any issues that you might have, just give us a call. Thank you for staying with Mirella and we hope you enjoyed your time in beautiful South Lake Tahoe.
