Tahoe City, California
Nestled in the woods a stone's throw away from the lake is our 3 bedroom, 2 bath cabin located 1 mile east of Tahoe City towards Incline Village in the Lake Forest neighborhood. The setting is next to the Lake and adjacent to cross-country trails, hiking & biking in spring/summer. With easy access to all North Shore ski resorts in winter and lakeside amenities in summer, it's a great central location for all your vacation needs.
The cabin is a welcoming and comfortable A-Frame that easily sleeps 6 in 3 double bedrooms. Yard is completely enclosed & pets (2) are allowed w/ references & a $150 pet fee. Inside & Living Room contain a full size couch and love-seat and a wood burning stove that heats the home entirely. Retro kitchen is open to the living room and a pleasure to cook in while you converse with your guests. The 2-minute walk down a quiet backyard path to the beach in spring & summer is a delight!
Guests have full access to all rooms in the house and the yard. Privacy is a key for our guests and we will not be contacting them unless notified to do so.
This was my second stay at Jerry's place and the location is perfect. Off the main road, quiet and walkable neighborhood with a dog-friendly beach out the back door and bike path access out the front. Jerry hasn't overlooked anything you might need including plenty of towels and linens. Understanding that dogs join their owners here, my only negative comment would be the urine stains on the carpet and the smell of urine - not overpowering and nothing I don't think a professional deep cleaning couldn't address. Coming at the end of summer after lots of use is probably a factor as well. Jerry is prompt to respond if there's a question or issue. Looking forward to returning again!
Well stocked with all of your essentials. Cabin organized. Sofa and bed comfortable and two bathrooms a plus. The fenced yard and close access to the lake was the reason for choosing this cabin. Our dog enjoyed checking out the yard. Nice patio to sit under the trees.Great bike/walkway to Tahoe City. Good places to eat. Carpet should be replaced with tile, many stains from previous tenets. Otherwise, a great place to stay.
We really enjoyed our stay at this Lake Forest home. It was perfect for our little family of 3 and two small dogs. The home was very clean and well equipped. The location of this home is perfect with proximity to town and the lake. I’d love to go back when there’s less snow so we can actually utilize the trail leading to the lake! Thank you for a wonderful stay and we’re hoping to be back!
This home is exactly as described and you can’t beat a dog friendly beach out the back door and the bike path out the front. Plenty of extras like pillows, blankets, towels, soap, and shampoo and conditioner. Having a washer and dryer is a plus. Check-in and out was a breeze and when I needed to communicate with Jerry, he was prompt and accommodating. My dog and I had a perfect time and I plan to return!
This house was perfect for my cousins, my dog and me. We loved having a fenced yard and being able to walk to the lake. The owners were great. We'll be back.
Great location and fully equipped for a short time stay. The owner was very accommodating and responsive to all inquiries. Walking distance to the lake and short drive to shopping and restaurants.
The communication with Jerry was prompt & friendly. I locked myself out & he responded within minutes. I was back in within minutes. The house is very cute and for the most part true to the listing. Some room for improvement: 1) it's a dog rental as well & we did bring our dogs. I cleaned up after my dogs. Unfortunately, other tenants who were before me did not. Also, the cleaning services didn't either. Makes playing in the snow, not as fun within the property. 2) it has a wonderful fenced-in backyard but unfortunately, the main shovel was buried under a block of ice. A previous tenant broke the other shovel into pieces (plastic) so there was nothing to clear doorways from snow or pick up dog poop (I improvised). 3) the beds are small for two standard adults. I'd guess all 3 beds were Fulls at best. 4) unfortunately cleaning services didn't finish the laundry from the previous tenants so there was a large pile of sheets & blankets still pending wash in the washroom. There was also a load in the dryer which kept erroring out the cycle. It was hard to reach the dials given it was stacked. There was no step stool to reach the controls. 5) wonderful kitchen, dishwasher, & range. I cooked all the meals at home. Well stocked but make sure to bring tinfoil & ziplock just in case. 6) no DVD player & limited tv controls... a must at night with kids. I must have misread the listing because I brought movies with us to watch thinking there was a DVD player. 7) loved their leather couches, especially in a dog rental. This makes for a cleaner experience. 8) the bathrooms were not properly stocked. Similar to a hotel when you check-in, you expect a refreshed roll of everything. Restocked essentials. They did have supplies on hand in the washroom but I had to restock myself. Not a major issue but one has to question how well cleaning services really put in effort given some basics are not complete. 9) the central heating system was excellent. Unfortunately, the woodburning stove had a broken seal on the door so we were not able to use this item of the house. 10) the neighborhood is a mix of business and residential. We attending in a slight off season so it was very very quiet in the neighborhood, at the lake & snow park. It was a quick walk to the lake with the dogs. This is a very cute rental & with some cleaning services upgrades & a few repairs of the house, this could be a 5 star.
House and kitchen were great for our family. Only disappointment was the yard. Pretty unusable no snow clearing to speak of except front walkway. Shovel buried in icy snow crust. But we loved the location
Awesome cabin to stay at, would stay again!
What an absolute gem! We arrive for a New Years get away & I promised my kid snow… and boy was there snow ?. The driveway & walkway we’re shoveled so getting into the house was so easy! The house was clean and is just an absolute gem! The kitchen. Was fully stocked (coffee maker, toaster, microwave - you name it!) and even kitchen spices & a few extras. Games and tv access as well (great for a late night movie to settle down with!) My son & I brought his best friend & his mom to join us as well as our little pup. Jerry was a great host and made our trip just the absolute best! We found a great little hill to use for sledding just down the street. I look forward to coming back & seeing the property during the summer time as it is so close to the lake! Then fully enclosed yard is perfect for pups as well!
