Tahoe Time Vacation Rentals is a locally owned and operated, boutique-style company—not a large nationwide chain. As a small, family-run business, we take pride in offering a personalized, hands-on approach to hospitality. Our homes are carefully selected and located in the quieter, more scenic areas of Lake Tahoe, including the California North Shore, Olympic Valley, Alpine Meadows, the West Shore down to Rubicon Bay, and the Palisades at Tahoe ski area.
What makes our company stand out is our dedication to being here for you. As long-time locals (thirty plus years), we are always available to assist with your stay, ensuring a seamless and memorable Tahoe experience from booking to check-out. Whether you're here for adventure, relaxation, or a bit of both, we're committed to making your time in Tahoe truly special.
El Dorado County | VHR 073576| TOT #1605 | Max Occupancy is 8 - AT ALL TIMES | 3 Parking Spaces. Parking on the street is strictly prohibited. All vehicles must be parked in the driveway and/or garage at all times. County quiet hours are 10 PM - 8 AM. Strict enforcement of occupancy during quiet hours.
County Rules As part of the Vacation Home Rental Permit for this home, the county asks that we share the important rules and regulations with you. We appreciate your cooperation in following the guidelines listed below, also included in your signed Vacation Rental Agreement.
Maximum Occupancy: There shall be no gatherings, events, weddings or other group functions on the Premises with more people than the number of persons stated on the Agreement.
Parking: Parking on the street is prohibited at all times. All cars, boats, and trailers must be parked in the garage and/or driveway.
Quiet Hours: Quiet hours are 10pm-8am, seven days a week. Per the County: No sound may be audible from the property line during quiet hours. Amplified sound (such as speakers) shall not be used outside or be audible from the parcel line of any short-term rental at any time. Outdoor hot tubs cannot be used during quite hours.
Lights Out: All exterior lights must be turned off that are not needed for safety or other outdoor use to the extent that such other outdoor use is not an unreasonable nuisance to neighbors at night during the hours of 10pm and 7am, seven days a week.
Red Flag Warnings: Due to high risk of wildfire in our area, bonfires, charcoal barbecues, and wood-burning fire pits are always prohibited. On designated Red Flag Warning Days—when fire danger is especially severe due to dry conditions and high winds—all outdoor fires are prohibited, including gas grills and gas fire pits. These restrictions come directly from the North Tahoe Fire Protection District and must be followed for everyone's safety. It is each guest's responsibility to stay informed about Red Flag Warnings. They are announced on local news, radio, and social media, and you'll also see signs posted at fire stations throughout the area.
Winter Driving: Many highways, access roads, and driveways in the Tahoe area can become icy during the winter. For your safety, it's essential that between November 1st and April 30th your vehicle is winter-ready. Make sure brakes, windshield wipers, defroster, heater, and exhaust system are in top condition. Tires should be properly inflated with excellent tread, and you should always carry tire chains—even if you have an AWD/4WD vehicle. Double-check that your chains fit your tires and are in good working order. On many state highways and county roads, four-wheel drive and snow tires are required for safe travel. Please be prepared for winter conditions: dress appropriately, stay in bounds at ski resorts and if you get lost, remain in place.
Garbage & Bears: Please do not feed the bears. Black bears are very common in this area and, over time, many have become used to human food and trash. Because they no longer have a natural fear of people, you may see them during your spring, summer, or fall stay. Feeding bears is illegal, and leaving food outside, trash unsecured, or doors and windows unlocked can lead to serious property damage to both homes and vehicles. To help prevent this, all waste must be placed in bear-proof bins or dumpsters and the latches secured. Placer County sorts recycling from the waste for you at our materials recovery facilities.
Office Holiday Hours The TTVR office is closed on New Year's Day, July 4th, Thanksgiving, and Christmas. Therefore, we are unable to accommodate check-ins and check-outs on these dates. Thank you for understanding.
The vacation home is heated and features a kitchen, 2 bathrooms, and a patio, and there's space to spread out with 4 bedrooms. Guests can expect to find free WiFi and a flat-screen TV with a DVD player. Other standard amenities include a washing machine, a fireplace, and a coffee maker.

Railing on staircase need to be connected with new bolts and mounting brackets on stairs - very loose. Plates all chipped. Sliding glass door screen needs to be replaced - very difficult to slide. Downstairs bathroom has paint chipping on ceiling and mold on ceiling. Laundry room smells heavily of mold.

Really WONDERFUL property! Exactly as described, or perhaps even undersold, as the lake and mountain view from the deck is just amazing! Looking forward to renting here again during another season as it snowed (loved it!) for a couple days, which meant we stayed cozy inside and watched the snowflakes fall.

Great View - Needs Cleaning Attention and Home Touches
The house was perfectly located for our trip to hike Desolation Wilderness.The view is absolutely spectacular.
All necessary features are provided, although for those who expect a TV in the master bedroom, there is only one TV and that is in the main living area and positioned awkwardly for viewing.
The bed and linens were comfortable. Lots of hot water and water pressure was good (I care about my showers!).
The downside: There were a ton of spider webs all over. I know that we are in Tahoe, and that there are spiders, but this was an amount that does not happen with regular thorough cleanings. Even the shower stall had very significant cobwebs in the windowsill right next to where you stand. The cobwebs were truly all over, including webs I had to wipe off just to get into the master bed (strung from the wall, across the lamp, over the bed, to the window).
And...TONS of big, black spiders were popping up constantly. In the bathroom, master bedroom, kitchen. They say they do pest control as best as possible, but having stayed in Tahoe countless times in the last 40 years, I have NEVER seen this many spiders. This may be a byproduct of not cleaning thoroughly enough throughout the house. The fireplace still had a half burned log and ashes.
There is also no attention to decorations. The master bedroom had nothing on the walls except black marks/scrapes. Ditto downstairs. Not very homey.
Still - worth the view every morning/night!

The view was absolutely magnificent and the deck was great. I did think they should upgrade the kitchen. There were no platters, many dishes and cups were cracked, no complete set of the very basics like measuring spoons and measuring cups. They had four mismatched wine glasses in a four bedroom home. Also two blinds did not work at all, several fans were broken and it was 90 degrees in the house during the day. There were cobwebs everywhere inside and outside the house. The NBQ was filthy and it took a long time to clean it. The rug needed shampooing and the interior needed painting.

Every negative thing you could imagine about this place would be negated by the most amazing views of the lake. It is very homey/cozy and has all of the amenities needed for a long/short term stay. The bathroom downstairs could use some updating but other than that, the stay was beyond awesome! Location is spot on - near burger and pizza spots as well as well as the Tahoma market.

Amazing Views! Great property management experience
The views from this home are absolutely incredible. As stated in past reviews, the furnishings could use some updating. Most of our time was spent away from the house and on the deck enjoying those views. The house has great space and is very well equipped.
I would like to mention that our experience with the property management company Tahoe Time was wonderful. They were very responsive and continued to communicate very efficiently leading up to and during our stay with any questions or needs that we had. I would definitely recommend renting from them again. Thank you!

Beautiful Views
The home was very cozy and had all the supplies and amenities to host a family for a week's vacation. The views are magnificent and the location of nearby shops and restaurants is perfect. This place is just out of the way for a great family retreat but still close enough to partake in everything Lake Tahoe offers. My only complaint is that the door and window screens need replacing as they let in mosquitos and flies. Some of the windows didn't open and since there is no AC it would get rather warm during the day. Otherwise, it's a great home to relax and enjoy family time.

Refreshing
The house has an amazing view. It’s a beautiful home. We can just stay in the house all day and feel rested. I have everything I need to cook our meals. I love the clean white bedsheets and white towels. The beds and pillows are decent. We enjoyed watching the DVD movie collections at night. It’s in the very good neighborhood close to places we went to, the hikes and trails up the mountain. The area wasn’t crowded, we went Monday to Thursday. Pets allowed, thank you! We took our doodle to Monkey Rock, Cascade Falls and Kaspian beach. There is no backyard so we had to walk the dog day and night to do his routine and clean up after him. There is no covered parking. Park on the left side of the house on the road.
I’m only bothered that the plates and bowls have cracks and chips but this is a very easy fix. Overall we had the best experience and would love to be back.
