Reviewer Comments:
My family and I spent an amazing week in this beautiful house. It was very spacious and everyone had plenty of room to relax and enjoy. When we were not out playing in the lake, hiking or exploring the surrounding areas, most of our time was out on the deck (which is lovely), cooking in the well appointed kitchen and enjoying the hot tub.We did have quite a bit of bear activity. A few walked right through the yard and one even came up to the kitchen window (just a bit unnerving) to see what was cooking.Overall, it was a great experience and we would like to visit this house again in the future.

Very nice cabin in a pretty, quiet neighborhood not far from the lake.
The house was wonderful. Very clean except the sheets in the master bedroom had dog hair all over them so we changed them. We wish we could have enjoyed the place a bit more, but we were there for our daughter’s wedding and so we were very busy elsewhere.

Summer Family Fun
The location was great, but that was about it. The bed sheets were old and the master comforter was torn. Pillows were also old and needed to be replaced. None of the windows had curtains or shades or anything- so nobody could sleep in. Literally no privacy in the bedrooms. When we arrived we couldn’t get in, as we didn’t realize there were 3 lock boxes. Had to wait an hour for a call back from rental manager to get in.

2023 NY Tahoma
The overall property was good. Check in process would have been better. The driveway was completely iced up and slippery when we arrived. Had to spend 1 hour in the cold shoveling snow and removing ice so that I could park my car safely.
The home is beautiful and recently remodeled with impeccable kitchen and bathrooms. Heater worked well to keep the house warm. Five stars overall with the following suggestions for improvement:
—king bed in master bedroom is sinking. We had to move to the downstairs bedroom after a sleepless night there
—one bed in upstairs bedroom had not had sheets changed from the prior guest
—back door to the hot tub cannot be left unlocked and we locked ourselves out when using the hot tub (thankfully averted disaster by locking the front door)
One of the wonderful things about this home is the quiet neighborhood and that it’s across the street from a large forest that was wonderful to explore and play in during the winter for our family.

Reviewer Comments:
Outside the home was great. I was not impressed with the home. The home did not have any window treatments at all on the windows. It felt uneasy without even a curtain to close. There was a leak of melting snow over the kitchen countertop that constantly leaked water. A lot of the receptacles in the kitchen did not work.

Location is great. Lockbox access. Be aware that Tahoma neighborhoods can be unplowed (This is clearly stated by rental company). We had a lovely stay with a group of friends. Would stay again.
