South Lake Tahoe Retreat Near Lake and Beaches with Hot Tub and Game Room

Hosting was great. The house was beautiful with a great view.

You can book this please for your group

This is a huge home with lots of light, very elegant, open, and upscale. A little chilly vs. cozy. However, a generally hostile environment. Everything we asked for from the management company they immediately said no to, no interest in truly hosting us or making us feel at home. Couches were covered with those weird pads that movers use for protecting furniture, like, Don't actually use these couches. They're for show. They gave us 4 rolls of toilet paper for 6 people for 4 days, and when we asked for more, they gave us 4 more rolls with a terse little note saying that based on the number of people we *said* we were bringing (implication: we were lying) this is all we should need. So we had to buy our own, plus paper towels etc. Both ice and filtering on fridge needed maintenance, showing red lights. Hostile signs all over the property threatening us with fines if we were loud, or in the hot tub late, or this or that. Accordingly though, neighborhood was dead silent throughout our stay. For a couple or individual this would be nice. But this is a very big house, so people who rent it are likely to want to be social or bring a big group. I was constantly shushing our teens even indoors, out of fear of being fined. Small thing that added up: loud landline in the house rang often and scared the crap out of us each time. On the plus side, huge fun beautiful meadow nearby for playing in the snow. Note that you'll want to bring chains. These are side roads and snow did not get cleared, nor salted so driving on them in their icy state was scary. (Snow was unexpected and we left our chains at home.) 10 or so minute drive to lots of amenities. Beautiful house, neighborhood, and street. Just stressful and frosty, pun intended.

This was a great property for our 3 generation family get away.

My family and I enjoyed this house so much! It’s beautiful inside and so large and has so many great things in it. Mattresses weren’t too comfortable but other then that it’s a wonderful place to stay. We will be staying there again.

Not necessarily the property Management's fault here, but there were lots of warnings of fines for everything. Do the trash wrong, fine. Talk a little too loud after 10pm, fine. Use the hot tub after 10pm, fine. Park too many cars, fine. Luckily, we managed to avoid any fines, but I must say it doesn't exactly make for the most comfortable or relaxing stay. There were a few things that added to the anxiety that were directly related to the management though. The check in and out process is extremely rigid. My friends had to wait outside for 10 minutes because the keypad on the door is designed to update at the EXACT time of check-in. The cleaners were gone, the house was empty and ready, but still we had to wait for the robot door to let us in. We even called the management company and they basically told us too bad, you'll just have to wait. Actually, most of the conversations with the management company were pretty robotic and impersonal. (Lots of scripted responses.) On top of that the roof had a 10 thick sheet of ice ready to crash down onto the hot tub at any moment, and the deck/grill was completely unusable as the snow had never been cleared. (Mind you it hadn't snowed in Tahoe for almost a month when we went. Even their glass patio table had about 2' of ice on it.) Anyway, nice house, but issues with the management of the property. Oh, and bring your own hot tub towels/robes. The house only provides bath towels.

This house is in a great location and perfect for a family get together. My friends and I would definitely consider coming back to this house.

While we enjoyed the house, we had a few issues. First, the garage is very small and shallow. We arrived with two vehicles (a truck and a large SUV), but both vehicles could not fit in the two car garage. Due to the length of the vehicles, it was extremely challenging to park a single vehicle in the garage - no way we were getting two vehicles in the garage. Second, the dryer did not work the entire time we were there. We called the rental company who sent someone out, but parts had to be ordered. On a positive note, the rental company offered to come by and dry our wet ski clothes, but they couldn't return them before we needed to leave for skiing the next morning so we passed on the generous offer. Third, the hot tub was set to 85 degrees, which was not ideal. We turned up the temperature, but we were unable to use the hot tub after our first day of skiing. Last, some of the rails on the pool table are broken - the balls would not bounce off the rails.

we love every bit of time in this vacation because of the great property, only missed the shampoo and soap in bathrooms.

Great location. The noise travels even when you're hanging inside and there is apparently a fine for noise anytime not just after 10pm of $1,000. Got a text to be quiet from management when we were inside playing foosball. Seems a little excessive when you are inside but have to have the windows open for the heat that they would send you a noise text. And we literally weren't that loud or stayed up past 9pm because we were tired. Also/ there is no central air conditioning which may not be a problem in the fall or winter, but in the summer when it's HOT we were literally sleeping with fans blowing directly on us. Also, we couldn't keep the windows open all night for a breeze because of the fires and the smoke/air quality level. Asked for updates on this before we arrived and was told they would not call us we needed to call them which we did. Again, for the summer months, probably won't stay here again although it was a very nice house with lots to do and good location.
