Lovely Cabin in Kings Beach

The stay was great, beds comfy, water hot and location was prime! When we got there we did notice a lot of black dog hair on the ground maybe from previous guests but other than that everything was great!

Our family just had a great stay at this property. The house was the perfect size for my husband, teen son, 10 year old daughter, 2 year old son, dog and me. The open kitchen layout was ideal for us to hang out as a family while my husband and I cooked meals. The house is located within walking distance to the beach. The couch and arm chair in the family room are a bit old but plenty comfortable. We found all the beds comfortable too. The house was very clean. The kitchen supplies like the pots and pans could use a refresh but they got the job done. Overall we had a lovely stay and enjoyed the house very much.

Kings Beach Gem

We had a very good experience at this well-kept, clean, and conveniently located home in a quiet neighborhood. It was minutes from the restaurants in Kings Beach and Northstar. Home was very comfortable and spacious. One minor suggestion is it would have been nice to have some amenity items (shampoo. kleenex, lotion) for our stay. Other than that, we would definitely come again.

Great Stay with family & our dog!

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was very clean. I was very happy with the location. I was more than satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: The house was in a perfect location for what we needed. Clean and comfortable though one of the beds had a broken frame from previous guests it still worked out just fine. They offered an early checkin for that inconvenience. The home is just a few blocks from the lake and a nice walk for our dog. We would come back again.

Good space / could use some upkeep

Good space & great location. Generally as advertised. Could use some standard amenities restocked (laundry detergent, salt/pepper, toilet paper & trash bags). The 2x bar chairs at the kitchen island are so rickety none of us felt safe using them. They should def be replaced. The garbage disposal (insinkerator) in the kitchen sink kept tripping the main Circuit Breaker along w/the associated GFCI colocated with the switch. An electrician should come out.

Beautiful, comfortable home

We loved our stay at The Great Escape. We did a lot of cooking and found everything we needed in the well stocked kitchen. Beds were comfortable for our family of 5. The back deck has nice, comfortable outdoor furniture with a dining table and grill. It was an easy walk to the beach and dinner/coffee. We would love to come back again.

It is a nice home and included most supplies one needed. It is located in a neighborhood with houses very close (and normal noises). It is walking distance to beach and town but just know it is a bit of a hike and slightly uphill to return. On the weekdays in August it was easy to park closer to beach and town rather than walk. There is no blender which one of my friends needed for her smoothies.

Kings beach dog friendly home

This is our second time at this home. We enjoy the open concept and the kitchen bar. It is stocked well with utensils and cookware. Master bedroom bed was very comfortable. The home is blocks away from the lake and a nice walk for the dog. There are new upgrades from last year that made it more enjoyable (removing the shower glass doors to a curtain) and adding another living room chair.

Quiet, close and easy.

easy walk to everything , quiet and relaxing though neighborhood of king beach is a mixed use area. Property was in good shape , great to have a nice deck and full size garage. Everything worked as expected. Could use a little cleaning around area rugs and couches. Experience with turnkey was excellent.

No Lake Tahoe Chalet

The house was not very clean I had to vacuum when we arrived and there were little beads all over the floor we had a crawling baby so it was a risk. Floors and carpet were dirty. Downstairs shower door was broken and very difficult to get in and out of the shower 1/2 mile from the beach walking is doable if u have children or babies bring stroller. The kitchen is nice and well equipped The house need some updating and cleaning. Soap was watered down dish soap and hand soaps which is ridiculous. Only two pods for laundry and dishwasher. Could be better especially for the price

Nice getaway in North Tahoe

The property was clean and very accommodating. There is a bbq on the deck which was nice. Master bedroom was spacious. I like that there was a garage to park our vehicle. Instructions were entry to property was easy to follow. Bring your own games, puzzles, cards or books. The only night time entertainment was the TV, which was fine. Thank you for sharing your property.

Perfect home for a family!

Decent place and great loacation, POOR maintenance and cleaning

Overall the place was nice but had some serious issues with maintenance and cleaning! Vacasa is the management company and is clearly not willing to address any of the maintenance issues with their appliances. As previously reported on 2 reviews in May 2022 the glass shower door is STILL broken and is almost ready to fall off and slice up who ever is in the downstairs shower (liability issue), along with a metal piece of shower door being loose. The downstairs toilet wouldn't stop running (poor maintenance). The place was not properly cleaned (we had to wipe down all surfaces as there was sticky grime on the railing as you walk up, didn't trust prior cleaning). I had to fix the dryer (it only would run for 30 seconds) because the vents had never been cleaned, there were inches of built up lint (fire hazard), inside the dryer vents. The washing machine doesn't drain properly (as there's standing water in it) (maintenance issue). The dishwasher has about 1 inch of standing water in it (maintenance issue and gross). There was an uncapped coaxial cord sticking out of the baseboard right next to a bedroom doorway (liability issue if you have little kids or pets). Local Vacasa team contacted me to come over and fix the issues 1 day AFTER I had checked out (clearly they don't even know what's going on at their own properties). And Vacasa's management team still has not contacted me 1 week (5 business days) later (after I reported all the issues), even though I was assured that they would look in to providing a partial refund for all the issues we encountered. Overall not impressed with the management company!! The place had a good location and slept 6 adults easily and was dog friendly. Other than that they need to fix and keep up with maintenance for their appliances in this house, as well as lower their cleaning costs or improve the cleaning. I would not recommend this place if you plan to use their appliances or until Vacasa decides to fix up the place a bit.

Excellent Location

Upon a 4 pm arrival the house had not been fully cleaned and we did not get the house to ourselves until after 4:30. The house cleaner wasn’t going to wash the floors and I said yes she would. She also stated she didn’t do stairs due to fear! The fold out couch bed had dirt on the mattress and the housekeeper did not know if the sheets had been changed. The remainder of the house was clean. There are basic maintenance issues that were not addressed upon our arrival. The master shower door was off its track (the guide broken). The housekeeper had said maintenance was aware of the problem. She showed me the broken parts in the drawer. I called the manager because of how dangerous the glass door was along with a video And was told it would not be repaired until we checked out almost a week later and to use it with caution. To my surprise I came home alone on Thursday afternoon to a man in the drive who laughed and said he was a day early (mixed up his day)to repair the shower!! I was alone and said he needed to come back on Friday when we checked out in the morning. Had I come home later this man would have been in my house unknowingly and I had cash on the bedside table!!! Other issues in the house were a slow draining sink in the master, one light bulb working in garage and one door opener that worked. We chipped out half of the 3 inch ice on the drive because it was dangerous and cars could easily slide into the garage door. We always leave homes in wonderful shape with a load drying and another in the washer, dishes washed etc. The house is great, there just needs to be attention to detail at the price I was paying. The management said they would give me a small refund for my trouble. Getting ahold of management requires going through a que of questions before they answer. It is not a direct line to someone.
