Place was awesome! The only thing that would make this place 5 stars instead of 4 stars is the beds are extremely soft. Other than that I love the place. For the price and location it's great!

Best bed award!

The house was basic. Clean. No coffee filters for the coffee pot - that was odd. Bring flat filters. The king size bed in the main room was easily one of the most comfortable mattresses we’ve had! Location is great. About a 10 minute walk to the town/beach. Unfortunately Kings Beach town and neighborhood are showing a bit of “wear.”

Great location

Location and ease of access were great. The property itself is iffy. We walked into very dirty and stained carpet. I even got the vacuum out to try to clean the carpet so I felt a little better about my son playing on the floor with his cars. A tack strip for the carpet is exposed going into the smaller bedroom and I covered it with an extra rug to protect our feet. There is a large amount of mold and staining around most of the windows and especially in the smaller bedroom. Toward the end of our visit I flipped the switch to turn on the light in the smaller bedroom and it started smoking and buzzing. This was very concerning. My mother had to sleep sideways in the large bed because the mattress is so worn she was sleeping in a groove otherwise. The shampoo/conditioner/body wash storage had previously fallen and were broken. I went to use the microwave and found leftover chicken from the previous people. The roof had not been shoveled and I was really concerned about the snow and ice falling on my truck. It seemed like the cleaners or owners could take some more time.

Comfortible for a short stay

Comfortable cabin, adequate room for a small family. The street noise was pretty loud, unfortunately. The backyard is not completely fenced, which is important if you have a dog. Property manager was nice to let us have early arrival and late departure.

Rough but Redeamable

Clunky getting into the property- no after hours assistance had me moments from sleeping in my truck- property management company communicated, followed up and discounted the rate for the mistake. The cabin is great- definitly well worn and old but well appointed and clean. Septic back up on the last day.. property management again stepped up to deal however it meant no shower for me on my final day there.

Lovely little cabin

My wife, mother-in-law, infant daughter and puppy all stayed at this cabin. It is a wonderful rustic place. The location is great and we hiked from the cabin and also walked to nice restaurants, bars and shops. I will say that the backyard isn't fully fenced in, but that was okay with our dog because weren't going to let him go running wild in the snow anyway.

Nothing fancy, but prime location and everything needed for a great stay.

This property is about 5 blocks from the Lake and 5 blocks from mountain biking and hiking trails. It is prime location for active vacationers! An outdoor deck would have been perfect, but chairs in the yard make do. The game selection is outstanding and the garage was perfect for the toys we brought!

Poorly maintained, management company service was very disappointing

The only bathroom in the house had a shower that was not working. The bathmat and towels had not been washed after the last occupant. It took 2 days for the management company to schedule a plumber, who had to replace the shower head and a few valves. There was a heavy storm so the delay was understandable. What was very disappointing was the attitude of the manager we spoke to at Century 21: she was defensive, seemed to blame the plumbing problem on us ("you must have turned off the heat", unlikely in 25deg weather!) and never offered an apology or an accommodation for the condition of the house. Our request for a late checkout was immediately denied of course. I did not bother to even suggest some form of monetary compensation, but I did tell the folks at Century 21 that I would be writing this up. There were some other minor inconveniences that were not mentioned in the VRBO description. Garage has no automatic door opener. No cable/local TV. No dishwasher. On the plus side, the washer/dryer is conveniently located and the bedrooms are a good size with large closets.

Awesome cozy place

It was as expected and much better. Rooms where very well kept and amenities were sufficient for our cozy stay in wintery Tahoe. Just a quarter mile from Big Blue Tahoe and very close to modern amenities as well. Diamond Peak ski area was just 20mins away. A great place, would love to go back.
