10/10 Excellent
"Awesome family vacation spot! We had great weather all week and my kids (in their 20's and 30's) ran me around from Truckee to South Lake Tahoe. My sister and her husband drove up from Pasadena and joined us for a few days. We rented a pontoon boat and the six of us spent a day on the lake. This was my first time in Tahoe and I think that the area is one of the most spectacularly beautiful places on earth. The house was big enough for all of us to be comfortable and the fenced in back yard was a bonus. My grand dog was in her glory chasing squirrels and chipmunks! We walked a lot.The West Shore Market was great for coffee and breakfast stuff and some souvenirs. The only minor issue I had was navigating the stairs. The bedrooms are not on the main floor, but the living room and one of the bathrooms are. The bear fences on the doors were a little difficult to get used to but it became a habit to hook them up. WE DIDN'T SEE ANY BEARS! Parking was a bit tight for three vehicles, but we managed to keep them off the road. Good times were had by all!"
