Very nice property

House is well located and very clean. Convenient to golf, hiking, biking, etc. Very comfortable, other than the pillows, which are quite small and firm, perhaps just a personal preference for larger, softer pillows. This is our second stay at this property and would definitely stay again.

Great winter stay!

Everything about the property was fantastic. The house is brand new and is the perfect and mix of contemporary and mountain rustic. The house is well-designed and efficient and the kitchen/great room were even better in person than the pictures. I traveled with my wife and two daughters and the house was perfect for us.

Wonderful Week at First Light Farmhouse

Great house, very clean and well-kept. The house is in a great neighborhood and location to get to everything in the area. One of the few times we've rented a place and were more impressed seeing it in-person. The property management team at Tahoe Getaways were very attentive and kept in touch before and during our stay. They were very responsive to our questions and helped us have a great time staying there.

Beautiful home. Perfect for a ski trip!

We had a great stay at this home in Gray's Crossing for our ski trip. The kitchen layout was efficient, and there was plenty of seating in the living room, making it a comfortable spot to relax after a day on the slopes. The beds were comfortable, and the hot tub worked perfectly. No major complaints – everything met our expectations. A bonus was the tall garage door, which easily accommodated our roof box. Would definitely stay here again! Side note, the price was on the higher side compared to other equivalent places we've rented, but we still enjoyed our trip. PS. Tahoe Getaways team is very helpful and responsive.

Lovely property. Cleaning not up to par however. Some dishes were dirty and fingerprints on multiple high touch points in the house. Also, gas smell required us to turn off fireplace valve. TV entertainment did not have reception, required us to do a system reboot which did not fix it, but not a neccessity. Still a great place to stay, as these things were treatable.

This home is EVERYTHING! It's perfect for so many different types of vacations!!

This home is EVERYTHING! It's perfect for so many different types of vacations!! Summer ski trips, golf trips with buddies (Gray's Crossing golf course is right across the street), romantic getaways with your honey, and of course there is no place like Tahoe in the summer. From boating, to gambling, to outdoor excursions this house is in the heart of it all! I'm from the bay area and have been coming up to Tahoe ever since I was a kid, it's my favorite spot for not only family vacations but also for when I need to get away solo to unwind and relax. My family has owned homes on both sides of the lake and I have rented countless times so I am well versed on all the best that Tahoe has to offer… well I thought that, until now! I was definitely missing out on this amazing gem! It couldn't be more perfectly located in Truckee right across from Gray's Crossing Golf course which is home to P.J restaurant that has seriously good food, super friendly staff and the view is indescribable, Perfect place for the sunset! The house could not be more perfect for entertaining!! The open floor plan kitchen / living room/ patio creates an open, airy space where you think you are in the woods camping! The hosts truly created this home to share with others in hopes that they make wonderful memories. From the fire pit and couches where we all sat around and made smores listening to their Sonos surround sound, to the 24/7 heated hot tubs (I enjoyed both in the morning and evening listening to the fountains in the garden…so good), to the, to every dish, cooking, kitchen appliance needed, this home is without question my new home to rent in Tahoe for every season!

Beautiful home but on the street

For nearly $800.00 a night you would think the owners could provide clean towels that aren't shredded and looking more like rags. When I removed the fitted sheet in the MB it too had a tear in the corner. Additionally, the exterior lights did not work, nor did the fireplace!

Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: The house is so tasteful! It is very clean and well organized. We had everything needed as far as kitchen utensils. The only downside is the street (Prosser Dam) noise as the road comes to the roundabout. When we were last there in March 0f 2017, there was so much snow that we were hardly aware that a road was there.

We enjoyed our stay in this beautiful, clean, and comfortable home. The home was well-stocked with towels and kitchen essentials. After a long day of skiing, the hot tub was a real treat. We appreciate the use of the garage which is not a common amenity with vacation homes. We will definitely return for future ski trips. Thank you!!
