    Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was more than satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We really enjoyed this beautifully decorated cabin. It’s located in a lovely, quiet and friendly neighborhood. It’s within walking distance of the Tahoma Market and a coffee/gelato place that we like to visit. It is protected by bear fencing as are most of the homes in the neighborhood. It was easy enough to use but care would need to be taken with small kids. The kitchen was very well stocked. It has a single cup coffee maker but no coffee pot. The beds were extremely comfortable, the home was sparkling clean. This lovely home was a great size for the two of us but I think any more than two would be tight.

    Rating Details: The property manager was adequately helpful. The vacation rental was somewhat dirty. I was very happy with the location. I was satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I do not recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: The cabin itself is wonderful. The location is great too. There were all the amenities needed in the kitchen, and it was fairly clean. It was disappointing to find that the bed sheets, pillow cases and comforter were in such bad shape, they looked so overused that at first we thought they hadn't been washed at all. Additionally, the towels were not very clean and smelled bad.

Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: I had a great overall experience with this rental during my first visit to Tahoe. The place was a great base for adventuring around the lake and maintaining and peaceful, local atmosphere. Sugar Pine park was a short walk with an uncrowded calm beach away from majority of tourists. Will be visiting again! Thank you!
