Unwinding after our Daughters wedding
My family stated at the property after our Daughters wedding. The home is absolutely beautiful, spacious, and has everything needed to ensure a great relaxing stay in Tahoe. The house is in a great neighborhood close to everything on the North Shore. The property itself is very nice and we enjoyed many games of bocce out front. The deck is fantastic with several areas to sit or have a meal. The deck has an awesome BBQ and hot tub both of which our family utilized throughout our stay. We also enjoyed coffee in the AM and sone wine in the PM sitting on the deck. If your a cook kitchen is fully stocked with cookware and appliances are first rate. The rooms are large and the beds super comfortable. Each room has a TV and plenty of closet space. The property is part of a very nice private HOA beach area with a pier which is a huge perk if your going to visit in the summer. The home owner provides a kayak and a couple SUP’s to use on the lake. If you like to golf the home owner also provides a couple sets of decent clubs for use during your stay. The home is right across the street from some wonderful hiking and biking trails. We hiked just about every morning and the trains were well marked and amazing. We met lots of great people and dogs on each walk but no bears! I cannot say enough about this property and we will definitely be back.

Bear Theme Decor
A lovely home that accommodates 7 adults and 3 children very well. Kitchen is well stocked and love that the knives are sharp. The bear picture over the fireplace is amazing. Access to the HOA beach was a great addition (by car). Detailed notebook was thorough as to the house amenities and activities in the area. Terry

Quality and Comfort
This is our second visit to this property, and we plan to return. Everything from the comfortable beds to the gourmet kitchen to the spacious deck and yard is well designed and inviting. Lots of room for adults to sit back and relax, and it’s safe for little kids. The location is very convenient to the lake and groceries. Richard is readily available and responsive to questions.

Better Than Advertised
One of my biggest problems with vacation rentals is that they are hardly ever at the quality that is advertised. This property was the exact opposite. Every expectation was met or exceeded. The property is beautiful, well-furnished and kept in excellent shape. it was absolutely perfect for our family trip, and we couldn't be more thankful to the host. We are already talking about our next trip to Tahoe and plan on staying here again.

About the host

Hosted by Richard Neubauer

Host profile image
Our family lives in San Diego and in nearby Truckee. We've stayed at many rental condos and houses while skiing, boating and travelling. Mostly, we've been disappointed. We've furnished and outfitted this house to meet our own demanding expectations. We spend a lot of time here, so we maintain it to our high standards.

Why they chose this property

Carnelian Bay is among the most convenient places on the lake, whether you fly into Reno (1 hour 15 minutes) or drive up from San Francisco (3 hours 30 minutes). The house is in a quiet location away from the busy, noisy highway around the lake but when you're ready to go out for dinner or cocktails, there are many fine choices nearby. Grocery stores and other shops are ten minutes away. Before purchasing this home we vacationed at Tahoe for years, staying at the Tahoe Keys in South Lake Tahoe, Incline Village in Nevada, Alpine Meadows on the Truckee River, and Homewood on the West Shore. This feels the best to us. The across-the-street access to the hiking trails is a huge benefit in all seasons.

What makes this property unique

Completely refurbished in 2021 with high-end furniture and new gas fireplace. Large corner lot, heavily wooded with a big front yard. Located on a private road in a private community, traffic is very light and children can safely play in the yard while you sit and watch from the deck. In late spring and early summer you'll hear the nearby creek running down to the lake. You can walk the quiet, winding streets or hike in the adjacent National Forest land. There is no retail or commercial activity in this upscale 'Old Tahoe' neighborhood.
