Important Information Before Booking

Bear-Proof Trash Bin: The bear-proof trash bin is located next to the driveway. Please use this bin for all trash and make sure the lid is securely closed after each use. Bears are a natural part of life in Tahoe and can be attracted to unsecured garbage. Properly securing your trash helps protect both you and our local wildlife.

Winter Travel: When visiting Tahoe in winter, be prepared for mountain driving conditions, possible road closures, and delays in snow removal. You’re booking a mountain getaway, so come prepared for changing weather and road conditions. Our snow removal crews work every day, but we have no control over the county road snowplows. This street is not a primary plow road, so clearing may take longer. Four-wheel drive and/or chains are always recommended, and smaller, low-profile vehicles may have difficulty navigating snowy conditions.

Power Outages: Tahoe can experience power outages during snow, rain, and wind events. Lanterns are provided for your convenience, although availability may vary.

Air Conditioning: Like many homes in Tahoe, this home does not have air conditioning, as our mountain climate has traditionally offered cooler temperatures, especially in the evenings. During warmer days, we recommend opening the windows in the evening to let in the cool mountain air and create a cross-breeze throughout the home. Just remember to close them again when you head out!

Quiet Hours: 10:00 p.m.–8:00 a.m. Please respect quiet hours and remember that this home is located in a residential neighborhood with full-time residents nearby. Parties and disturbances of any kind are not permitted.

Hot Tub Use: In accordance with El Dorado County regulations, hot tub use is prohibited between 10:00 p.m. and 8:00 a.m. Please plan your relaxing soaks accordingly!

Maximum Occupancy: 8 guests. Children under five years old are not included in the occupancy count. Occupancy limits must be followed at all times.

Maximum Vehicles: 4 vehicles. Garage is accessible. All vehicles must fit in the garage and driveway. Street parking is not permitted.
