We enjoyed our stay in South Lake Tahoe for my birthday. The house is well-located and secluded, with a very accommodating host who let us check in early. However, the property needs some attention: the deck was covered in pine needles, the carpet was dirty, and the WiFi was unreliable. The stairs to the bedroom were tricky, and the bed was small. Some fixtures, like the soap dispensers and blinds, didn't work properly. Despite these issues, the kitchen, jacuzzi, and grill were in good condition. While we appreciated the host's responsiveness, we might choose a different place next time.
