The Space: This rustic-modern updated home is the best of both worlds. The young owners really nailed the modern mountain vibe here. Located 20 minutes outside of South Lake Tahoe in the Christmas Valley neighborhood, this home has 3 bedrooms, a loft, 2 bathrooms, sleeps 6 and has plenty of driveway parking! Small kiddos do not count in the occupancy. What is unique about this home is the HUGE LOT, filled with granite boulders for climbing, a hot tub, string lights and much more! It’s very private, cozy and cool.
DISCLAIMER During the Winter of 2022/2023, the garage sustained some damage and had to be removed so no garage parking available. There is plenty of parking on the driveway for up to 4 cars. The owners are working on rebuilding a new one so there might be some light construction material onsite. Please be careful where you walk in the front yard specifically to the right of the house where the old garage used to be. There are some shallow trenches there.
HIGHLIGHTS Hot tub Pet friendly Large lot with granite boulders Updated kitchen and baths Smart TV and WIFI Christmas Valley Close to highway 89 - good for Kirkwood!
PARTICULARS - WALL HEATER: This home does not have central heat. There is a brand new wall heater downstairs that heats the whole home. You will want to keep the bedroom windows open to allow the heat to enter. PLUS - The wood burning stove works great in the Winter! Please bring your own wood. - ROOF SHED: This home has a roof that is very slanted and prone to what is called shedding where it releases all of it’s snow at once. We do our best to shovel it but during heavy Winters, you may arrive to the side door and window covered. - EXTRA SNOW: This home is located in the snowiest neighborhood in South Lake Tahoe. We do our best to shovel out the hot tub but it might be an adventure to get to in heavy snow years. - WASHER/DRYER: No washer and dryer at this home.

Clean nice home
We enjoyed our stay at this property. This was a cute home and one of the cleaner vrbo homes I’ve stayed at. The home had nice linens and offered several fans for the heat, which we appreciated. The neighborhood was quiet and close enough to town for needed items. I would stay here again, however it would be nice for the owner to finish the fencing for more privacy in the backyard, as well as, add window covering options for the bottom level as the sun beats in all day but the fire smoke prevented us from being able to open windows to cool the home down. Bring your own multi purpose spray if you cook a lot and want to clean the counters between meals, as no cleaner is provided, which surprised me for the cost/day.

Wonderful quick getaway
This place had it all. Plenty of space, well equipped, nice finishings, well taken care of, great hot tub. We took advantage of easy access to both Heavenly and Kirkwood for some late season skiing. Would love to stay here again.

This house is absolutely as advertised. Simple, clean, convenient. The company who runs the property was highly communicative without being invasive or overbearing. Highly recommend, would certainly consider booking again in the future. Thanks!

Comfy cozy
The house is comfortable and welcoming. Christmas Valley is a great neighborhood and this house is right in the middle, with a beautiful huge boulder to give character. Attractive outdoor lighting glows in the snow from the hot tub. Kitchen is well equipped and the beds were cozy. We found keeping the bedroom doors open at night help circulate the warm air. The icy path was a little difficult to traverse but we made it work. Would definitely return!
