5 Mi to Heavenly Mountain Resort: All-Seasons Gem

Pros:Great location with easy access to Heavenly. The house had plenty of space and lots of beds, which made it very convenient for our group. Overall, it was mostly clean and comfortable.Cons:The walls are quite thin, so noise travels easily between rooms—we could hear conversations from the other side of the house. One bed appeared to have hair in the sheets, which made us wonder if it had been properly cleaned.

This house was near South Lake Tahoe. It was no more than a 15-minute drive to the water, to places for coffee, or a place to have dinner. It was spacious and there were so many beds! We were comfortable. While we were there the temperature outside reached 80 degrees and the house stayed cool throughout the day, but it did get very warm in the evening, especially upstairs. Be prepared if you're staying in the summer, you will not need pajama pants! We loved this house and would gladly stay there again.

I found this place old and funky, not true to the online listing

A couple of my friends and I booked a little reunion trip overnight here. The place is super nice and easily accessible. It was very clean, and a great place to host a group of people. There was more than enough room for all of us. The owner was very friendly. Sometimes I feel like renting someone's place, you feel like an imposition on the owner or like your in trouble. This was probably one of the kindest and most communicative hosts I have dealt with. The location is also good, it is very close to heavenly and the kind of downtown area of South Lake Tahoe. It is also close to accessing different roads that can take you to other mountains, route 80 or North Lake Tahoe. Thank you for the stay! I highly recommend, super easy check in/ check out process, friendly owner, great location, and a clean place with lots of accomodations.

I was reluctant to book this property because it was very expensive and then when you finalize it had all the extra charges: Host fees, Cleaning fees, Service fee and Tax. So we are paying a very large amount a night for this rental. But it's our anniversary, it looks amazing so we are going to splurge! We drove up to a very nice, quiet neighborhood, but immediately we notice that this is THE un-cared for property in the nice neighborhood. Weeds and garbage in the front yard, an old mattress and umbrella on the side of the garage, dead plants at the doorway, and a broken backyard fence that was just propped up to the side. The patio furniture and BBQ was filthy and plastic, so we did not enjoy the outside deck at all. The house inside was clean, but dated. We don't mind old furniture, but the leather couch was sunken in the middle and the sides had you leaning in and it was very uncomfortable. The other chairs were ripped and torn and not comfortable either. The only other option was metal chairs at the dining room table and for those of us who like to read a lot, it was not fun. The battery for the TV remote was dead, so no TV for us on night 1. I contacted host and she did send someone the next day to blow off the porch and leave new batteries. We were not there at the time, so that person came inside the house and left the batteries inside and we were kind of freaked out by that. TV remote still did not work for night 2, so I found myself watching you tube videos on my phone on a metal chair. It also can be quite warm. So I'm sweating on a metal chair watching you tube videos on my phone! Sweet. In the morning I went out to the back yard and there was lots of garbage, among that an old sled that shows that this place has not been cleaned up since winter! This is July. After sending the damning photos the rental company did refund one whole night, but it had already ruined the vibe for us. Don't do it.

When we first pulled up to the property it was nice. Owner was nice to let us in a bit early to check in. This is why the place is receiving a two star ⭐️. However, when we walked into the cabin, it had an odor and we had to open all windows and door to release the odor. Remember, the place had no AC and Tahoe was extremely hot this weekend, so we felt like we were in a Sauna. To top it off, the upstairs was extremely hot. So we all decided to stay downstairs. We booked this place for the rooms and available bathrooms, however the up stairs bathroom shower was not working properly. The shower head was barely shooting out any water. The attachment was squirting out more water than the shower head. That should definitely get fixed. The bottom shower was bearable so we all shared that shower. We understood it was a high price time for Cabins at the moment, but we paid a good amount of money and did expect a better experience. The furniture was worn out and could have been updated. The cabinets with the pots and pans were not cleaned. So, when we used any utensils or pots or pans we had to clean them. Overall, we were a bit disappointed because of the amount of money we put into this cabin. We felt we could’ve stayed at another one or the hotel with AC. However, owner was nice enough to let us check in early. We suggest, getting updated lights, cabinets, shower heads, and furniture.

House needed a few updates especially kitchen appliances ,no coffee pot, we couldn’t get the electric fireplace going, spiderwebs everywhere but the backyard was a winter wonderland our kids really enjoyed it.

Very neat and clean. House was spacious and can accommodate 10 people very well. Great location. Close to attractions. Owner was available and responded quickly when we needed assistance. Would definitely rent again.

We had so much fun at this cozy, comfy cabin. There were 8 of us sleeping there but we had a couple of wonderful family dinners with 18 people that included little ones and teens. There was plenty of room for all. The owner's kitchen was terrific with nice, sharp knives, a crock pot and plenty of general cooking stuff. I loved the quiet neighborhood and Tahoe view from the living room and deck. It was about a 20 minute drive to Fallen Leaf Lake, our favorite lake and where family camped. We also saw a mama bear and little ones ambling across the far back of the property! We had great customer service and will definitely return.

Great little cabin with a decent amount of space, located close to all the activities in South lake. Owner responded promptly to text messages and allowed us to check in a bit early. My only quarrel is that the pictures make it look a lot larger than it is and the upstairs beds aren't comfortable. Downstairs beds were great though! I would recommend and I would stay again. All in all it suited our needs and was a relaxing place to stay in a nice neighborhood.
