Roomy and Easy

Although this place is on the main road and is lacking in curb appeal, it was very clean, large, cozy, and close to everything we needed. The back yard is huge and there were plenty of beds for our group of teens. We loved that the rooms were connected for the kids, and we had our own room and bathroom as parents. The wood burning fireplace is a nice, cozy touch. A hot tub would be ideal, but we understand they are not easy to maintain. Otherwise, a great place for a very fair price.

Great Location

Our group was a big mix of age ranges, spanning 3 generations. The kids loved the books and puzzles provided, which allowed grandma to partake and sip her coffee. The house was clean and had a supply of blankets for some cold nights. We also appreciated the heated bathroom floor. It’s a good location, close to town and a great sledding park. We were a little disappointed in the bed situation which seemed to be different as advertised. The bunk beds were shown with a double as the lower bed but when we got there, the bunk bed was lowered and a twin was used almost as an trundle underneath and a 3rd twin was added to the room. This was tricky for us just due to our sleeping arrangements but made it work. Overall, the place worked for what we needed. Everyone had fun and Our dog loved the fully fenced back yard!

Prime location & Great Backyard

We thoroughly enjoyed this home; the backyard was massive and fenced in, so my dog could prance around in the snow. Also, there was some snow, and the littles could use their sleds. The kitchen is stocked with all the essentials, everything was super clean and well organized. The view from the dining table was beautiful and the last day we were able to enjoy breakfast while watching the snowfall. The location is central to Kings Beach and close to North Star Resort for those who are skiing/snowboarding. The check-in process was a breeze, and all the information we needed was provided beforehand (toiletry needs, wifi, etc.). I would stay here again.

Clean, good location and easy access with no hiccups. Well, maybe you should state it clearly in property details that “we don’t provide shower supplies, no shampoo no lotion no soup bar”, then you will not need to say “I am so sorry” in text messages. We have 4 adults and one kid, staying for 3 nights, and found there are only two mini body wash gels, one for each bathroom. Therefore, for future visitors, we suggest you bring your own shower supplies! And one more thing, for the bunker bed room, you will either go through a main bedroom to enter, or via the outdoor patio, I guess no one would like to choose the outdoor way in winter. That saying, for whom sleep in the “connector” bedroom, which connects bunker bedroom and the rest of the property, you better be the very good friend of the rest that ok with them running in and out:)

Comfortable Cabin at Northshore Stateline

This home is right on the main road, so a little noisy, but has a setback and large safe backyard great for children and/or dogs. The bathrooms are updated and clean. Some of the beds had plastic mattress covers. Kitchen was well equipped with cooking utensils, etc. Carpets were stained in many places. I took pictures so the owners wouldn’t think it was us if there was a question. Proximity to Speedboat beach swimming and Stateline Lookout a big plus!.

Funky cabin did just the job

House is on the small side but it's just what we needed for our family of 4. Nothing fancy but had everything we needed and good for the price. The house is on a main road which is great in the winter because it's plowed, but be forewarned if you have bolting kids or dogs. Two of the bedrooms are connected so kids sleeping in the bunk bed room have to pass through the other bedroom to get to the living area, and the third bedroom has a full size bed, not a queen, and two adults cannot comfortably sleep in it. Pics are honest and backyard looks huge for spring/summer months.

Everything as described and well communicated from property managers. Our dogs’ first trip to the snow and the backyard was a fantastic playground for them (and us). Cozy and convenient, everything worked. We brought our cable box and connected to WiFi to watch our hockey games in the evening after the day on the slopes. Would love to come back again.

We enjoyed our stay , one little thing was missing..there was only 1 steak knife. We brought steaks to grill so I ended up buying paring knives which is what Safeway had as the closest thing to a steak knife. Other than that, the kitchen had everything else we needed.

Speedboat house review

House was great. Communication was great with property management. Location to speedboat beach and kings beach made this house worth it. Parking and getting out of the parking spot was a little hassle being on the Main Street. Big yard for the dogs which was a huge plus. Beds are firmer than I’d like but overall would still give 5 stars.

This property is a great value. Especially its proximity to speed-boat beach. The house itself was clean and with plenty of linens. Please note that the beds are relatively small (Queen/Double) but nice mattresses. This is not a luxury unit - but and older home/cabin that is well appointed and a good value for the money.

Great stay at Brockway (with toddler)

Overall the house was very nice, with a huge spacious backyard, minutes long walk to one of the most beautiful beaches I've seen (Speedboat Beach - which was completely empty when we went there early morning), and a great kitchen (with an excellent gas stove and tons of amenities for preparing big meals). The house is on a very busy main road, which was a big plus for us, considering our toddler LOVES to watch cars go by. And it was quick access around Tahoe. A few downsides, the backyard had a ton of dog poop there (although there is supposed fine for leaving it) and overall the place felt pretty dingy. Carpets are old, toddler's bare feet were black within a few minutes of running around, so socks it was. All in all would recommend.
