The instructions were very clear and easy to understand. The house was beautiful and warm and had all the things you would need. We really enjoyed that they were games there to play and the hot tub was perfect. Close to town, which was nice. We definitely would go there again.

Our group had a great stay! The host had very good communication and the house had great amenities. The hot tub was so nice to have! Great central location to get to Kings Beach or Tahoe City quickly.
