Severely Dilapidated Home in great location
This home is in a great location with a great view. The listing says it is a five-bedroom but it’s not! The one “bedroom” has a very old small pull out bed that is broken with an “mattress” that is not usable. One of the toilets is broken and the outdoor fireplace is also broken. It is clear the owners have not put a penny into this home in decades. It’s too bad because the place could be charming with a little investment. For the price it was not worth it!

Spectacular!!
My siblings and spouses take a trip together every summer and this year decided to go to Lake Tahoe. There are 10 of us, and our accommodations are very important to us for our week long stay. This property was absolutely perfect for us!!! The kitchen was so well stocked, the bedrooms were exactly what we needed, and the outdoor patio was wonderful. We spent many hours playing games, talking, and enjoying the breaking views. We would all highly recommend this beautiful cabin with its history and personality above any modern, impersonal property on the lake.

Great location
I’m not sure that there’s a better view of Lake Tahoe than the one that we had. The location is perfect. The access directly to the lake is breathtaking. The cabin could deal with some updating other than that it was great.

Great location, but house a bit outdated.
Overall, a great experience! Beautiful location right next to Zephyr Cove and close to stores and Heavenly Resort. The house is a bit outdated and could use some love. The floors creaked and the locks are loud, so bring ear plugs if you’re a light sleeper. Communication with the rental company was good.

Wonderful family vacation home
Once you arrive you will never need to or want to leave! The kitchen is complete with every appliance. We used the kayaks and paddle board every day! We enjoyed dinners on the spacious deck while watching glorious sunsets. ! You can’t get any closer to the lake! After a day on the sandy beach our family also enjoyed strolling through this friendly family neighborhood.

Great old Tahoe cabin
Cabin is classic Tahoe. Great location on lake and neighborhood is quiet & is amongst mature trees. Ample rooms, small bathrooms. Large kitchen, large dining table, open living room. Beautiful view, large patio, green adjacent lawn., large lot, feels spacious in & out. Easy access for kayak on beach & lake. Beautiful sunsets from deck.

It’s ok
The place I guess is what it says. The furniture needs to be updated. The lighting needs to be updated.
I realize the beach in front is out of control
Of owner but they should have let us know there was no beach due to high water.
You could only use the towel
On the bed or they would charge extra. It was just odd.
The view was nice. The home was clean. The manager was amazing and helpful. Just needed a makeover. I do like that the home is older but the furniture and lighting were terrible.

Perfect place for fun family relaxation.
This house was the perfect location for our party. The house is older and has lots of cool quirks about it. The kitchen is large and was great to cook in, very well stocked. The deck and the cool raised lawn and sitting areas in the yard were great to relax and play games on. We took the kayaks and paddle board out, there are lifevests available to use. Make sure to have the lifevest with you, someone in our party got a $90 fine for not having while out on the water. This house is classic Tahoe! We will most likely stay here again in the future.
