A beautiful, well maintained property. Lovely decorated, personal but not overdone, just right. Convenient location, the meadow is literally in your backyard. We saw multiple coyotes playing/lounging. The house has a well planned layout. We enjoyed our stay!
The house was great - so close to so many amazing bike trails. Jeff was super responsive and the check in/out process was a breeze. We would definitely stay here again.
This is a wonderful house that is very well maintained and in a great location, very near the Heavenly CA lodge parking, Safeway, Whole Foods, and most of the rest of the places in South Lake that you would want go. The owner was friendly and helpful, and our family had a wonderful stay.
The cabin was perfect for our needs. It was clean, lots of space, and was very centrally located.
Jeff was responsive to my questions and was very professionally. I will definitely stay here again!
Clean, cute, comfy central location in S LT. Great communication with owner who was extremely accommodating with our date changes due to Covid and then last summer’s fire. Highly recommend and would stay again.
We stayed for 6 weeks and it was a wonderful home for our summer getaway! The house was well stocked, located in a great location and very clean. We loved spending our mornings on the deck overlooking the beautiful meadow. Jeff, the owner, was also very accommodating and easy to work with. We hope we can stay there again next year!
Great house in a perfect location for hiking, groceries, and all things SLT. The house is well laid out and peaceful right off Bijou Meadow. Great internet which made working from there a breeze. Jeff is a great host- responsive and helpful when needed. We were sorry to leave and hope to stay there again.
This home is absolutely beautiful with plenty of space and all of the amenities to ensure your vacation doesn’t miss a beat. Super close to grocery stores, shopping, restaurants and Heavenly Village. All of the beds were comfortable, hot water was plenty and the view is relaxing. Jeff was fantastic in his communications, instructions and suggestions. I would recommend this property to anyone and we look to visit again one day.
We had a few small bumps during our stay, but the property is well maintained and in an ideal location, as well as very close to many useful locales. There was ample parking, plenty of space in the home for our family to utilize, and a large kitchen with modern amenities. My brother was getting married at a local beach, so we had a lot of last minute wedding prep to do, and the house provided space for the 6 of us adults to do so. Having the grocery store and Target nearby was helpful for grabbing last minute items as well. Jeff was prompt in answering questions, and we appreciated this. We appreciated having ample soaps and such provided, as other places we have stayed have been somewhat stingy in that regard. A random side note though - the toilets are rather low to the ground, which my parents with their aging hips and knees struggled a bit with (just a consideration for anyone with similar situations). The house being one level and having only a step or two definitely helped with those aging parental joints though! The views from the backyard were great. We appreciated having a place to stay that was close to the places we needed and provided us with space and comfort during the stress of wedding prep and joy of getting our family together. Thanks Jeff!
This is a great house in a perfect location - hiking trails, grocery stores, restaurants, the Lake are all close by. We love the back deck and the trail that leads to a beautiful meadow. Beds are comfortable, kitchen has everything you need, and there is a garage for the car. The host is fabulous and very responsive so your choice is easy....Stay here!
We stayed here due to a local project we were completing.
The home was great! Very clean, comfortable and equipped with everything you might need. The host, Jeff, was amazing to work with! Due to a snow storm, our project exceeded the original completion date. Jeff was extremely understanding and accommodating by allowing us to extend our check-out date the 3 extra days we needed to complete the project. We would definitely recommend, not only this lovely home, but the host as well. Thanks again, Jeff!!
This house was perfect for a family getaway. Spacious living room and well equipped kitchen. The deck opens to a nice meadow (though given this year’s drought, it’s brown instead of pretty and green as shown in the pictures). Everything was clean and as advertised in the house, and the host was very easy to work with. Neighborhood is ok, it’s a long walk to the water but doable (we did twice). Conveniently short drive to state line and a lot of restaurants and stores. Would recommend!
Jeff makes this place feel like home while on vacation. It’s clean and very comfortable, has a very convenient location to everything, but still peaceful and quiet sitting outside. We would definitely go back anytime and Jeff was an outstanding host with his immediate response to any inquiries we had.
This house was perfect! There was ample space and the backyard with the huge meadow is so peaceful! The beds and bathrooms were all clean and comfy. The space was perfect for cooking, lounging, eating together, and we didn't feel like we were on top of each other ( 4 adults, 1 teen, 1 child) Communicating with Jeff was always smooth and he always responded quickly.
Clean, super spacious (pics don't do it justice). Plenty of supplies (kitchen was super well-stocked). Meadow off the back was fantastic. A very nice and relasing experience.
We stayed 4 days with our teens. The house was clean, had a big kitchen with everything you need to cook at home. Beds were comfy. The house is just next to a big open space and there was also a bike park at the other end of the park that was a happy surprise for our son. We had a great time and would visit again!
We needed a place to serve as home base during our week in Lake Tahoe. This home was exactly that! Clean, comfortable, quiet and safe -a home away from home!
We love staying here. This was a fourth stay to this property. The location is perfect. It is right of an amazing meadow where you can hear coyotes at night and frogs at dusk. You can see birds all day and say 'Hi' to friendly passersby. It is also centrally located so it's short drive to grocery store, skiing or going to the beach.
The house is perfectly stocked for a comfortable family stay.
This was our second stay at Jeff's place and it was perfect. Communication was excellent and the house was clean, spacious and organized as before. You also can't beat the location. We will be back again very soon. Thanks Jeff!
Had a great time at this property, short trip to skiing and downtown, very close to grocery store, open layout of house was great and owner was very responsive.
Our family of 4 thoroughly enjoyed our very first white Christmas at Rancho Bijou! There was so much space and the kitchen was fully stocked. The bathrooms were supplied with shampoo, conditioner, body wash, and an abundance of hot water! We enjoyed running around, playing with snow in the meadow right out the back door. Jeff was very easy to communicate with and was always quick to respond. We look forward to our next visit!

About the host
Hosted by Jeff Waller
I grew up in Boone, North Carolina in the heart of the Blue Ridge Mountains where I fell in love with the outdoors - specifically hiking and skiing. After receiving a degree in Architecture, I moved to San Francisco where I resided for 16 years and met my wife. We currently live in Oakland, CA where I work at a small residential Architecture firm.
Why they chose this property
Situated on a meadow and only a five minute drive from Heavenly Ski area, Mountain Meadows is in a perfect location. The rear of the house is bordered by an 8 acre parcel that was formerly the South Shore 'Drive-In' theater. Open trails lead directly from the back deck, through the open space, and to the meadow.
