Nice property

The property location was great, and was easy to check into. The house was a bit on the small side, but was a perfect base of operations as we were mostly at the Lake. The house was mostly clean, although the interior was a bit dated.

Relaxing stay in a friendly neighborhood

The house was very conveniently located in a quiet neighborhood near shops and easy access to Northstar and Palisades. It was very clean, cozy, and well-appointed, and we had a very relaxing stay. The neighbors were very friendly and approachable. Our kids enjoyed playing with the neighborhood kids. The surroundings were perfect for walking our dogs, and we encountered several other friendly dogs. We would like to stay here again.

Basic cabin in good location

Cabin is basic, but does have the essentials and has an efficient floor plan. Good location in Carnelian Bay. Only complaint is that the property is dated and has not been updated at all...bathrooms could stand to be upgraded, as well as the kitchen. But, overall, as long as you are expecting basic, this did check the boxes and it was nice to have our dog with us as well.

Great and tidy rooms, shower runs out of hot water

Rating Details: The property manager was more than helpful. The vacation rental was very clean. I was more than happy with the location. I was satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: The cabin is very clean and rooms are good sized. The only problem we had is the showers keeps running out of hot water after 2 people uses it, and we had 5 adults so 3 others had to wait for few hours after the waters are heated again

Charming Tahoe Cabin with Big Pantry & Cozy Vibes

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We stayed for over a week and honestly didn’t want to leave! The cabin was spotless when we arrived, and the property management team was responsive, friendly, and clearly takes great care of both the home and their guests.This classic Tahoe cabin is full of charm — redwood paneling, cozy details, and that warm, nostalgic feel that made it easy to settle in. The beds were super comfy, and we loved how quiet and peaceful the neighborhood was — perfect for restful nights.The big window seat in the living room was a favorite spot for morning coffee and evening reading. We also appreciated the spacious pantry perfect for stashing all our snacks and groceries for the week. The board games were a great bonus for cozy nights in.We were especially grateful that our dogs were welcome. This cabin is a true gem!!

Great place to rent

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: The place was perfect to us. Our family of five and one dog. We had plenty of space for each one of us. The kitchen has every equipment for cooking. The oven is outdated but everything else were in great shape. The rooms were clean and had enough storage for what we needed. The house was well insulated and heated. It was 10 out 10 experience for us. We would definitely book this place again if we come back to the Lake Tahoe.

Home away from home

This was our first time in Lake Tahoe. We chose this property because it checked many boxes with incoming family gathering here for a vacation including pet-friendly accommodations. We gathered every night on the back deck to enjoy the beautiful night sky and returned inside to enjoy the fire-burning stove. We cooked several breakfasts and dinners and found that everything was there that we needed. I call it "home away from home" because we really felt that vibe the entire stay. Highly recommend if you want a cozy cabin in the woods and close to amenities.

Disappointing

Great location but the cabin is very small. It is hard to relax when the furniture is broken or uncomfortable which is the case with both the bedroom and living room. Seating in the living room is limited to a broken recliner or a very uncomfortable couch. We even tried multiple beds. Everything in the kitchen is either broken or very old and mismatched. It was hard to find a good pan to cook anything and was missing basics like a spatula. Two of the burners on the stove didn’t work and there were multiple lights out in the bathrooms. The lights that did work in the bathroom were a burn/fire hazard as noted on the mirror. The hot water in the master bath made a loud screeching noise. The toilet area and shower in the master bath are too small for most people to comfortably use and are not depicted in rental photos.

1978 flashback.

The place was good for what we needed and the location was fine. We had trouble getting enough hot water for showers (5 adults getting ready for a wedding), but the problem was addressed and fixed quickly, even in the midst of a snow storm. The beds were comfortable and the kitchen had the conveniences we needed. We wished that there was salt and pepper though! We were also able to get an earlier check in time.

A Pre-Thanksgiving Stay

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We had a great time at the cabin for a little pre-thanksgiving get away. We preplanned for everything so didn't really need to use a lot of the amenities available. Plenty of room for board games, watching tv and a great area for taking walks. Wish it would have snowed, but enjoyed our trip none the less

Perfect family dog-friendly week away

We had a wonderful week with our family and two dogs at this home. The layout was wonderful with the large open kitchen, dining and family rooms. We loved the back porch that opened to the woods and played games, ate and just enjoyed the forest. The home was well stocked and just a perfect week away before sending the kids back to school - thank you and we hope to come back next summer!

Nice property close to the lake.

The house is very cozy and convenient. Safeway is just 10 minutes drive away. We were planning to stay only 3 nights but we got stuck in a snow storm so we had to extend for other 5 nights. The management was super helpful and understanding of the situation and gave us a good deal to extend our stay.
