Loved this house. Large, roomy, clean, and fully equipped. Great location in Tahoe City. We had a ton of fun with our grandsons playing pool. Location was great.
This was our second time staying here and we loved it just as much as the first. Tons of room, games for the kids, pool table, sauna, stocked kitchen. What isn't to like about this property. Will be staying here again in the future for sure.
We really enjoyed our stay in this home. It is lovely, and sits in a nice neighborhood close to the Lake. The location was a few minutes from the restaurants and shops of Tahoe City, but very quiet. We were surprised by the bear wires, given that we had never traveled to the area before, but got used to them quickly. I would happily recommend this home to others.

Hi Kevin,
Thank you so much for this great review! We are so happy that you enjoyed your stay and look forward to hosting you again.
This house was perfect for our family with teenage kids. There is a huge rec room with a pool table downstairs where we spent hours. The house was located in a nice quiet neighborhood for walks.
We had a great time at this house. It has all the necessary supplies and anything you could think of. Love the place and the area. So breath taking.

We enjoyed our stay very much. The property is beautiful, well decorated and clean. We had an issue and the property manager responded very quickly. Our 2 year old twin granddaughters enjoyed their bunk beds and play room.
