Tahoe Vista, California
Quietly tucked in the woods, this large Kingswood West home has four bedrooms, three baths and a two car garage. Surrounding the property is the Tahoe Forest, owned by Placer County, giving this lovely home a true "retreat in the woods" feeling! Sit on the deck and enjoy the serenity of the forest, hop on your mountain bike or cross country skis and hit the vast trail system, or take a quick drive to one of the many sandy beaches of Lake Tahoe or Northstar/Squaw valley/Alpine meadows/Mt Rose/Diamond Peak ski resorts.
Overall we had a great stay. Perfect location for families!! The house was well furnished with everything we needed and the game room and hot tub were both a hit. The bunk beds in two rooms were wonderful and allowed us to keep all individual families together. There seems to be a miscommunication between the owner and the cleaning company as I’ve read it on other reviews as well. Owner says check in is at 3pm and when we arrived at 3 the cleaning crew was still there and said that they’re told they have until 5pm. Wasn’t a major issue for us, they were done with the game room and they allowed us to hang out in there until they were finished. Would definitely stay here again!
Great location!
Pathetically, no heat in Dec? Give me a break. Propery shouldn't be rented.
It is a very cozy house, where the whole family felt comfortable. Enough space for adults and children, the kitchen is fully equipped, the bathrooms clean and big. And you have beautiful places nearby that you can visit such as King Beach, Northstar Village; (there is a gondola, bicycles to go to the mountain, food, shops to buy). Sand Harbor and Secret Harbor is close to the house. Fully recommended for your family vacation. The only detail was that we couldn't use to watch the television programs in the spare time that we were at home. But everything else is in perfect condition
Was very cozy and close to the lake.
This is my second time staying at Vijay’s property, we come with the same group every summer! Place is just as shown. Great for large groups, plenty of space and beds for all, great location too. A few minutes from kings beach, not far from truckee. Hot tub is awesome and bathrooms are redone. Game room is a great bonus space.
The house is great and fit the needs of our 3 families. The house is a short 5 min drive to King's Beach and there are hiking trails right from the backyard. I gave it four stars because they didn't list a grill, when in fact they have a charcoal grill and a propane grill (although no propane). Also we weren't able to watch movies on the living room and game room tv's. No streaming system would work, or even the dvd players. Would have been nice to put a movie on for kids at night.
This home was perfect for our family trip. Our favorite beach, Sand Harbor was only 30mins away. The property is in a great location and very quiet street. The hot tub and game room are definitely a plus. However, the house does need a little more cleaning. We found multiple spider webs everywhere and the game room needs some repairs and there is no projector in the game room as shown in the pictures.
We had a great time. Place was plenty big for the family. The game room was such a bonus!
Great place to stay! Great sleeping accomodations for our family. The kids loved the game room and hot tub area. Loved the master suite, didn't hear any noise from the downstairs. Loved it!
I stayed at the property with 10 other friends in honor of our good buddy saying bye to bachelorhood. The place does not disappoint one bit! There is so much space to lounge around. The game room had us all competing like kids in an arcade fighting epic battles on the pool table and foosball. The jacuzzi was so relaxing and melted away any soreness we had from mountain biking and hiking. The kitchen is fully stocked with a wide assortment of cooking utensils and pots and pans. Vijay, the property manager, was very receptive to emails prior to our arrival, but we were not able to reach him during our stay. He informed us he was out traveling, so this is not a slight towards him. Everyone deserves time off. And if you’re looking for great accommodations on your time off, book this property.
This was one of the best lodges I've been to. It felt so cozy and family friendly right next to everything also. I would of loved to stay longer. Would love to come back and just relax in the lodge again
House was great for two families with young kids and tweens. Close to North Star. Beds were comfy, kitchen was great. The hot tub was clean and nice. The internet was really spotty and the heater wasn’t working so the owner had space heaters in each room. Once we got those at the right temps it warmed up. Great communication with the owner when we almost got snowed in on our last morning. Overall, a great stay!
House was lovely, perfect amount of entertainment for our group, and was very close to Northstar. Highly recommend!
I really wanted to rate this higher but there were just too many things wrong with this place to do that. That being said, let me state that the owner was extremely easy to communicate with and replied quickly even though they weren’t the replies we wanted. We were hoping for an early check-in (before the 3pm stated in the contract)and he said it depended on if the cleaners were done as there were tenants leaving that morning (understandable) but to go by around 1 or 2 and see. We went at 1:30 and there were 3 cleaners eating their lunch at the dining room table and all supplies still in the garage. They had microwaved their food and it reeked throughout the house. They jumped up and put their food away and told me it would be about 3 hours before the house was clean. That is way past the check in time. They should have started earlier (check out was 10am) and eaten after they were done. I sent the owner a message and he told me he would contact them and they would be done soon. Gave me the cleaning service phone number as well but it’s not our responsibility to call them. We went by at 3:15 and they still weren’t done., finally leaving at 3:45. They hadn’t started the dishwasher but I told them we would do it. I was hoping the pictures online were just so dark because of the camera used to take them but the house is really really dark with very weak light bulbs. The hot tub had been emptied and cleaned so it wasn’t hot until the next day. The sliding door out to the hot tub was off the track and hard to open, blinds in the game room fall off when opened, screen door is torn, front hall closet doors were broken and off the track, the air hockey game has broken plastic nets where the puck goes in and has a screw sticking up where the plastic nets should be. Very dangerous for anyone to play it. Many steps have a loose top strip on them, making it a trip/safety hazard. No extra towels, no shampoos or shower soaps, tv remote missing the battery cover. So many things that could easily be fixed to make it a much better place. Very disappointed.
We all enjoyed the nice , comfortable cabin, the theater/game room and outside activities, a very good time for making memories
The house was big enough for 16 people, but lots of stuff did not work as it should. 13 burned out light bulbs or bad switches. Sliding door in master had no screen and could not open easily, curtain is falling off the rod. Front porch is great, but no chairs to set and enjoy the view. Why is there not a propane BBQ? Charcoal is banned in Tahoe. I have more if the owner wants to talk, please call me.
This property was perfect for our family and friends. The location was excellent for golfing rafting and hanging out at Kings Beach. House has plenty of rooms and beds. Other than an uninvited Bear scavenging through one of the unlocked cars, everybody had a great experience! A big thank you to the homeowners for allowing us to share their home for weekend!
