Perfect for families and small groups, our home offers easy access to year-round activities, as well as a private hot tub.
What you’ll love about staying at the A+ A-frame:
• Our location! We are just 3 miles from King’s Beach and only 7 miles from NorthStar. Whether you visit in summer or winter, you will have close access to many activities from the beach and several ski resorts, to hiking, cross-country skiing and sledding just outside of our back door! You will find breathtaking views of the lake just a 3-minute walk up the hill from the house which leads to miles of hiking trails that can take you all the way to the beach. When you’re inside the home you will feel secluded and love the mountain and forest view surrounding you! • The creature comforts and amenities that our home provides from our high-end private hot tub to our wood-burning fireplace, plush sectional sofa, large flatscreen TVs, and wide array of games and puzzles. For those of you who love to cook, we offer a newly remodeled, fully equipped kitchen with all new stainless-steel appliances. You will also find brand-new memory foam mattresses throughout the home and a private washer and dryer so you can pack light and return home with clean clothes. • The extra amenities we supply for families! You won’t need to pack the following: Pack-N-Play with changing table component; Rock-N-Play; toddler potty; nightlights; white sound machines; highchair; bouncer chair; infant bathtub; infant playmat; boppy; doorway jumper; baby & toddler spoons/dinnerware/cups; safety gate for the stairs; cabinet safety latches; hiking backpack for babies/toddlers; children’s books, toys, games, DVD’s (along with DirecTV, Netflix, and Prime Video) and air hockey table. We are the ideal home away from home for anyone traveling with babies & toddlers to teenagers.
What you should know before you book at the A+ A-frame:
• Our house boasts a large two-car garage which is easily accessible from the street without a long or steep driveway to traverse; however, that means only two cars can be parked during times of snow. Please plan accordingly if booking with friends. During the summer, driveway and street parking is plentiful. Getting up to the house from the garage can be challenging in the winter so please be aware that you will need appropriate footwear for the snow and potential ice and that this house will best serve able-bodied individuals not intimidated by multiple steps or snowy paths. • The house is ideally suited for up to 4-6 adults with 2-6 children. Our target renters are families with a mix of adults and kids or 1-3 couples. Large groups of all adults will be more comfortable at a larger house. We can only accommodate a MAXIMUM of 8 adults (anyone over the age of 16) but set our guest limit at 6 adults to minimize noise.
No matter when you come to North Tahoe, you'll be assured a memorable time, with a vacation full of fun outdoor events and beautiful sights. And when you want to rest and relax at the end of your busy, fun-filled days, our comfortable vacation home is a pleasant place to land. Make your reservations today and start planning your Tahoe getaway!

About the host
Hosted by Derek Nelson & Fiona Doyle
We are a family of four who live in the Bay Area. We absolutely love Tahoe and the A-Plus A-Frame is our happy place. We are looking to fill it with many years of memories and we hope you help us along the way.
We bought the house in 2016 and spent months renovating it. We tried working with a local property management company at first, but were unhappy with the service provided to our guests and have decided to do much of it ourselves instead so that we can better control quality. We were new to VRBO in July 2017 and are so happy we made the switch.
Both of us work in sales but we got to California through different routes. One born and raised in Oklahoma, graduating from the University of Oklahoma, following jobs from Chicago to south Florida and finally to the Bay Area for the last 18 years. The other, from Connecticut and a graduate of Hobart & William Smith Colleges and a Masters from Boston College with dreams of coming out West to San Francisco where she's been for the last 20 years.
We have an 11 year old son who absolutely loves spending time in Tahoe and we welcomed our second son in September 2017 (he's already a big fan!).
We love family, friends, the great outdoors, sports (some of us more than others), travel, funny sitcoms, good or deliciously bad food and spending quality time in Tahoe.
Why they chose this property
We have both been in love with North Lake Tahoe since the first time we saw it. Avid skiers and outdoor enthusiasts, we found ourselves traveling to Tahoe several times per year. We finally decided we wanted to make it more permanent and fulfilled our dreams of owning a vacation property in 2016.
What makes this property unique
We chose this particular property because we fell in love with the classic A-frame style and believed the location to be ideal for all seasons....close to the beach in summer and the slopes in winter!
