Everything was very clean and strait forwards. We had a excellent stay. The only issue was the fourth bedroom was not available for us to use. I booked this place because I liked the location and saw four different bedrooms for me and my 3 friends to use. Even though the description only has three bedrooms, I feel that it is unacceptable to upload a picture of a room that is not included in the Vrbo rental and mislead the customers.

There was a lot to offer from this property especially for your puppies. I do not have one complaint but only thing to mention is that there isn’t a shower upstairs. The only bathroom upstairs has a tub w/o a shower, so going up and down the stairs was a light workout that wasn’t too bad. Overall we had a great experience here.

Great location at South Lake Tahoe. Easy access to everything at South Shore, and the beautiful Upper Truckee River Meadow is right out back, allowing for great views and easy access to trails. Home is very comfortable and well provisioned. The hosts are fantastic, very responsive to any issues or questions that arise.

The house is amazing - we had a great time walking out the back door; fishing, catching crawfish, seeing a lot of wildlife.
