Excellent, very comfortable stay

Comfortable, clean and cozy. My family and our dogs enjoyed our stat and will try to book a stay in the summer as well to enjoy the swimming pool. The hot tub was great after a day on the slopes. Just know that the pool is indoor but in a non insulated pool room so it’s way too cold for a dip. A very pleasant stay with comfortable spaces and a well stocked kitchen. Thanks again!

Great property and location. Close enough to town to get groceries or go to a restaurnat but far enough to get that real mountain feeling. As others commented, the cabin is well equiped and kitchen well stocked. Check-in was a breeze and the cabin was very clean. We would definitely rent again.

5 Stars all around!

This property was perfect for our ski weekend. It is 30 minutes from Kirkwood and 20 minutes from Heavenly. Our dog (and we!) loved the fenced in, level yards. We took a nice evening walk up the road that took us into beautiful forest and river scenery.The house itself was comfortable, cozy and spotlessly clean. It is very well appointed. The kitchen had everything one could need, well organized in labeled drawers and cabinets. Even night lights were provided. We hope to be back in the summer.

We had a great time at this place. We enjoyed the pool, jacuzzi and the creek right behind the property. The location is in a quiet neighborhood in a woodsy area. Our dog really liked the two fenced yards. Going into South Lake Tahoe is not far at all. We would definitely recommend this property.

We had an amazing family vacation at this beautiful house in South Lake Tahoe! Our kids (ages 7,9,12) absolutely loved the indoor pool, which was a huge hit. The house had everything we needed, making our stay super convenient. The location was incredibly peaceful and quiet, perfect for unwinding. Debbie was super friendly and responsive, making sure we had a great experience. One feature I appreciated was being able to see the outside when showering (window above shower stall), taking in the serene view of the surrounding trees. Also the house sits on a pretty big lot so we were able to explore the creek and river a little bit. Because it was fenced off, everything felt very private. We'd definitely stay here again and highly recommend it to other families! 5/5 stars!

Cozy cabin, wonderful stay

I stayed in this cabin with a few friends and we had a wonderful weekend. The kitchen was particularly great as we were able to easily cook a couple meals as a group, and eat at the large dining table. We had one dog with us who enjoyed the fenced in back yard. I also appreciated all of the documentation and guides available in the cabin itself. Debbie was responsive and easy to communicate with.

Mini Family Vacation

My family stayed up here for the weekend with our 2 dogs. It was a relaxing stay. My Granddaughter and the pups had an amazing time playing in the snow. The location is right outside of Meyers which isn’t to far from the strip if you choose to his up the Casinos. I will be keeping this house on my list of places to stay again. It worked out perfectly for our little family ❤️
