Its a great place. View is spectacular. We were disappointed that the main fridge was not functioning so we fixed it. It was dissappointing to be surprised by a dent and ding white fridge blocking the cute side door with no heads up prior to check in. We called for dishwasher soap and though promised, noone came. Otherwise stay was great and its a nice place. The master is not an ensuite but the living room makes up for it.

Beautiful view

My suggestion would be to buy new pillows, carpets need cleaning and bath mats. They did have everything you needed and nice they had lights on for us when we got there. Nice layout. Loved steamed shower. Didn’t get to use jacuzzi.

Great home, central location

This is a wonderful home. We liked that it was central to almost everything we were interested in doing in the Tahoe area - Tahoe City, Northstar, Alpine Meadows, Granlibakken... The beds were very comfortable, too (sometimes that can be the challenge with a vacation home). We are likely to stay here again.

Beautiful and exactly what we were looking for

Other than the hot tub not working the first night, out stay was perfect. Beautiful view, comfortable furniture, great sleeping accommodations, and an easy drive to everywhere we wanted to go. We will definitely try to stay here again.
