Base Camp by Tahoe Getaways - Hot Tub, Large Deck in Dollar Point

We had a lovely time. Loved that the hot tub was on the deck. Gave us all a chance to be in the same space whether enjoying the hot tub or not

Great place! Wish it were slightly cleaner but Tahoe Getaways was extremely accommodating and helpful in checking in and making check out easy.

Really nice place, we very much enjoyed our long weekend, would come back!

Amazing stay! You can tell when your property is being managed by a professional property management group. Excellent communication. We were afraid of the windows and the heat, but we found that opening the windows and turning on the fans kept the property at a really pleasant temperature all day long. And we've been visiting Dollar Point for years - incredible location! Thanks!

I don't expect my review to be published as I'm sure Tahoe Guest Services scrubs the ones they don't like... however, don't rent from this company. The unit we rented was not as advertised and I'll be contacting the HOA within Dollar Point to give full details as well as the better business bureau. The unit had missing window screens, a backed up sink, dirty dishes, broken pans, a broken lock to a patio door, windows that did have a screen required one to prop them open with a wooden spoon in order to stay open, the dishwasher was missing wheels to roll out the trays, the carpet was stained and filthy, cutting boards were stored on the floor of the kitchen, and the hot tub was dirty. I would spend more time giving a review but again, I'm sure it won't be published. Save your money because they won't refund a penny to you. Rent from any other place other than this company and definitely not this disgusting basecamp in Dollar Point.

We had a few major issues with this place: 1. Overall Cleanliness. There were cobwebs in many reachable places with tons of caught bugs and happy spiders. We cleaned up most of them on our day of arrival, but they should have been cleaned well in advance of our stay. The patio was covered in pollen, which we had to wash away. We had to mop our kitchen floors because they were dirty. The carpet had visible stains. We vacuumed after a few days and pulled up more dust than I'd expect if it were recently cleaned. Outside around and below the deck was some garbage, including a cigarette butt. 2. Overall upkeep of furnishings and amenities. Material on one of the dining room chairs was visibly tattered and falling off the bottom. One of the recliners had a missing foam insulation in one of the arms (not visible in the posting photos). The carpet was bunching in places. The dish washer had a missing button, missing wheels on the bottom rack, and the door would dangerously fall on its own if not completely closed. There was a large crack in the bottom bedroom with two beds, partly covered by a picture. In the same room, there is visible water damage below the window, which also happens to be at the head of the single bed. The queen bed in the bottom bedroom with two beds sags in the middle and was very uncomfortable for my wife and I. 3. Ventilation. We stayed for a week at the beginning of August with temperatures in the 80s and the house got unbearably hot during the day. We opened all the windows and doors and turned on all the fans they provided and still couldn't cool the house. Luckily the air quality was good enough (100-150 AQI) with the nearby fires that we spent most of our time at the Lake, but if the air quality was worse, I'm not sure what we would have done, but staying inside with the windows shut would have been a none starter. 4. No HOA amenities. For the $$$$ we paid for 7 days, we should have had access to at least the beach, if not the pool. No clear indication that the cost was reduced for previously provided amenities at Dollar Point. 5. Slow Wifi. My wife and I both had to take video calls and encountered many issues trying to maintain a connection. Only one person could be on, and we had to disconnect all other devices. On the positive side, the place has an open layout and good location. The hot tub is great, and the bathrooms are nice. It just needs some TLC and $15-20k of improvements.

Dumpy. Broken window, gross carpet. Very hot, no circulation. Weird layout with only one bathroom near kitchen downstairs. Overpriced for what you get

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was clean. I was more than happy with the location. I was somewhat dissatisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I do not recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: The rental is in need of some repairs and upgrades to the furniture. We never were able to use the hot tub due to a combination lock placed on it. During the afternoon the heat in the rental was unbearable even with all the fans running. Of course, it didn't help that most of the windows couldn't be opened. Overall, we were disappointed for the price we paid.
