The property was clean, spacious, and was conveniently located next to the slopes and had amazing lake access. The views of the lake were incredible and we had a great time!
Sitting right on Lake Tahoe with an amazing view from the deck, this house was perfect for our stay. Eclectic and original yet livable, we were able to spread out easily and really enjoyed our stay.

Beautiful "old Tahoe" style cabin. Quirky but charming. Our kids LOVED playing hide and seek on the 3 different levels. It was close and convenient to Tahoe city shopping / dining / attractions and you can't beat the view!

Fantastic location! Gorgeous views from deck off the kitchen area and then down the stairs to the beach. The check-in and out processes were easy and the communication was immediate with any questions. Thank you! Super responsive and always helpful! Little things needed some attention, loose towel bars, downstairs fridges not working, kinds of things. Our family loved our time there!

Great place to stay with plenty of options for sleeping. The house was a bit dated, but well kept. Property management was very responsive to any inquiries. The only thing we were disappointed with is the fact we did not have access to the local tennis and pickle ball courts nearby.

Thank you for your review. We do our best to make sure we are very responsive and help our guests with anything they need. This home is not a part of the HOA that has the tennis courts nearby however there are public tennis courts in Tahoe City.

The view from the house was magnificent. Truly. We loved that upstairs was dining, living, and kitchen and bedrooms were on lower floors. Fireplace was lovely. Kitchen was very well stocked. VERY dated Tahoe cabin decor. So dated it was kinda nostalgic. We would stay here again for view and comfort!

Dear Linda,
Thank you for the kind review. Were happy you found the home to be nostalgic:) We'll look forward to hosting you again! Sincerely, Tahoe Rental Company
The House we rented was not cleaned properly. We had rodent droppings on the beds. Pet hair on the sofas, Spider webs all over the house. The rooms were infested with spiders. My kids has to sleep on the floor in the living room because of the amount of spiders we found in one of the rooms. We even saw a rat running around the kitchen. I reached out to the property management and they said they would send someone to address the issues. No one showed up to fix the problems. I don’t recommend anyone renting this property or do business again with Tahoe Rental Company.

Here is something I have to share here due to our terrible experience during this Thanksgiving. First of all, Tahoe rental company is good for communication when we meet troubles in this house. BUT this place is too hard to live and enjoy holiday. 1.This house must be remodeled ASAP.2.A Rat was running in the house. 3.Died flys in bathroom.4.Central Heater is weak.5.Bathroom has mold smell.6.Two bathroom locks not work. People were locked themselves in many times.7.Bedding has stains.8.Many duvets no covers.9.Whole house not clean as we expected also not as it should be.10.Weird bunk bed for 4 ppl with dirty beddings. Used tissue paper was found under the sheet. Even this house is under rental company management, how come it still provides such terrible and horrible experience. We feel paying $5117.12 is not worth it. The only thing I could say not bad is rental company staff picked up emergency call at Thanksgiving night and delivered some small heaters to us.

This was my first time using VRBO. I had been using AirBnB for both personal and business travel. I now much more prefer VRBO. The place has a fantastic view of the lake and nothing beats drinking coffee in the morning on that balcony. The kitchen is awesome! Very well stocked and lots of great tools to cook with. The location is just a few minutes away to a few restaurants, great coffee shops and grocery stores. Ideal!Unfortunately, there are some glaring opportunities. 1. The house smells musty, we opened up all the windows to air it out, but old carpet is old carpet.2. Spiders/webs everywhere! In every room and window there were not only cobwebs but big brown spiders. I sat on the couch next that's adjacent to the main bedroom and a spider was crawling on my neck. I'm sure that had we reached out to the property management company they would have sent someone to clean it all up, but I didn't want to inconvenience my family with having to leave the place. 3. The garage door needs to be repaired. We were following the rules and guidance for parking and when we open the garage door it nearly fell off! I somehow caught it before it could do damage. 4. The furniture and grill were a mess! I spent 45 minutes cleaning the grill before use. I also cleaned it afterwards so the next guest could enjoy it. Would I recommend this property to a friend? Yes, but the items above would need to be addressed. Also, some updates wouldn't hurt.
