This was our fourth stay at Jeff’s place. You can’t beat the neighborhood, with great access to Page Meadow, the west shore and Tahoe City. It’s an easy, relaxed visit every time.
We love staying here. It is in a great area of Tahoe. It has everything one needs for a great visit. The hot tub is a great bonus. This is our third stay here and we will continue to book the home for our annual family reunion at Tahoe.
This was a beautiful home in a great location that accommodated our family really well. While we enjoyed our stay and the amenities this home had to offer we did notice upon arrival that the home was not the cleanest. There where cobwebs on the ceiling upstairs and a layer of grease on the exhaust fan. The outside grill was also not clean and under one of the beds the was an empty bottle.
Was a perfect house for our family, kids and grandkids. We loved the hot tub and fireplace, the summer Tahoe weather was unfortunately rainy and colder than we expected. This was a gift!
Loved this quaint Tahoe property in wooded neighborhood. Comfortable, clean and well stocked. Enjoyed the hot tub and grateful to have our dogs with us.
Description of the property was accurate in my opinion. There was a ton of snow but the owner worked with it to make it accessible. The hot tub was nice after a day of snowboarding. Had supples in the event it needed to be treated while we were there. Communication with the owner was very easy. Home was well stocked and clean. You absolutely need a 4 wheel, awd, or snow tires if you are coming in the snow season. It’s up several hills and turns to get there and a lot of people who may normally be able to get around were stuck. The road is maintained but when it’s snowing you cant keep up all the time. All in all a great stay and enjoyed it

Esta bonita la cabaña , lo q no me gusto fue q no estaba limpia y había muchos pelos de los animales , no sacaron basura de los baños … olía muy feo los baños y estubimos esperando afuera por q no habían terminado de limpiar a la hora q teníamos q entrar
We had a wonderful time here. The house was very comfortable, clean, and easy. The hot tub was really nice and there are AWESOME mountain biking/hiking trails right from the house. We had a fantastic stay! Thank you!
Everything was great place was in a nice quite neighborhood. All shooping centers are about 15 minutes away. Just a few cons grill was dirty, bear dumpster bin was full had a hard time putting the trash. All in all it was a good place to stay

My family of 5 had a wonderful, relaxing stay. Its a well stocked home and very clean. The beds were comfortable, Jeff and Christine were very responsive, they answered all our questions promptly and thoroughly. The neighborhood was quiet and neighbors were friendly. It was a nice get away and we were extremely happy with our stay.
I would AVOID this rental because the property owner lives in San Diego and does not maintain the home. There are SAFETY CONCERNS in the home and Jeff the owner was NOT RESPONSIVE at all.
My family decided to rent a vacation home during the summer. Upon arrival we starting noticing unusual situations for a rental. The house was not well stocked. There was not even a wine opener. No propane in the BBQ tank. We notified the property owner and his reply was 'ya people take things. Just go pick some up and I'll reimburse you'. I don't want to be running someone else's errands on my vacation. This was how it was with all the supplies in the house toilet paper, dish soap, hand soap laundry detergent etc. I decided to let it go.
The next issues were dangerous and unhygienic and I told my husband the situation was not ok. There were exposed nails around the hot tub. A large 9 inch hole in the kids room floor. I wish I could post the pictures I sent to Jeff and VRBO. I mean a hole in the kids room floor closet where my foot could even fit through! Plus the surrounding carpet wasn't tacked down to sub floor so there were exposed tacks.
The hot tub is not properly maintained. Which is SO GROSS on a rental. The hot tub company only comes out about every two weeks. It's up to the renters to add chemical.
To top it off, there is no way the cleaning lady is washing all the bedding including comforters between renters. The dryer is not great and takes a long time dry. Believe me I tried. So if you rent here make sure you wash the linens before getting into bed!
In short, SO DISAPPOINTING. Mainly because Jeff was rude and unresponsive. We tried to resolve this without posting a review giving him an opportunity to rectify the situation. We got to know the neighbors and when I told them about the situation they said they weren't surprised 'he rents to anyone. ' I told the neighbors he said he is up here every month they're like 'no he's not!' Jeff is clearly ALL ABOUT THE MONEY.
We had a party of 9 stay at the house and it was a great size for a large party. There was enough couch space for us to all sit and enough room for us at the dining room table/bar area which was a nice bonus. The house was really clean. The only negative we found was that if you are on the first floor, you can hear everything from the second floor. If you want to grill on the bbq, bring your own propane tank as it was empty when we tried to use it-this was stated in the rental agreement, so just be prepared! Thanks so much for letting us your house; we had a great time! We would rent it again.

great house & experience but beware the drive to the house off main road is far when lots of snow
The house was clean & comfortable with everything you need for a great stay! It was farther away from the ski mountains because of the many turns & deep into the neighborhood especially when roads are snow covered. That was the one downside & the electric bear mat is not easy to maneuver with a dog. We were in constant fear he would be electrocuted. Otherwise the yard is great and environment peaceful!

Spacious family getaway
Dec 2018, our large family found plenty of room to enjoy board games, cooking, relaxing and sleeping. The house is stocked with everything you may have forgot. Very comfortable, snow trailhead at the end of the cuv-a-sac leading to a pleasant wilderness opening.

A great place to stay!!
Our family and dog had a wonderful stay! The kitchen had all amenities to cook with, and plenty of room for everyone to hang out while cooking-a very nice upstairs floor plan! Furnishing were very nice and very clean! Being pet friendly, we never know what to expect, but this place is exceptionally well taken care of!
Our only regret was not bringing our mountain bikes to take advantage of the trails close by.

Wonderful house. Well stocked, great location.
This house was perfect for our stay. Only complaint was that one of the roll out couches was very uncomfortable so be aware if you are planning to use it. We enjoyed the hot tub very much and the kitchen was well stocked with all the pans utensils I needed.
Thank you for a great stay.

Good property, but frustrating first night
The house itself is lovely, and once inside, we had a very nice stay. We have no complaints at all about the house.
The problem was getting in the first night. There is only one non-stop flight to Reno from NYC, and it arrives late. We got to the house at 1am, exhausted and ready to sleep, in order to get up the next day to ski. We were given a 4 digit code for the lock box, but when we tried to apply it, we couldn’t push the buttons in, and some buttons were already pushed in and wouldn’t come up.
We didn’t know what to do. We were tired, and it was 6 degrees - we would take turns to warm up in the car, while someone tried to push the buttons in with a screwdriver. We started to wonder if we had the wrong code or if it was simply broken. We tried to call the property manager, but understandably, she didn’t answer. At this stage, now around 2.15am, we thought the four of us would be sleeping in the car with the engine on.
We drove to a gas station to try one last thing and got a large cup of hot water. 45 minutes later, back at the house, the hot water did the trick. We got in at 3.15am.
The property manager and the owner have been sympathetic and respond promptly, but have been clear that this was a one-off problem beyond their control. Their view is that this is just "one of those things" that is part of the risk of booking a rental property and arriving as late as we did.
As customers, we paid for the night, and we were entitled to trouble-free access to the house (no matter what time it is). Even if we had immediately worked out that the lock was frozen, it was still a 45 minute trip to get hot water. We were cold and exhausted. To have the property manager act like our inability to get into the house was our problem and not hers was, to us, unfair.
It's my belief that a partial refund for the first night would have been reasonable. I had a 30 minute phone call with the owner, and I appreciated he took the time to make the call. He did not, however, share my view that any sort of compensation would be appropriate. I'm not sure, but I think he felt I was being unreasonable in my expectations.
I do recommend this property, as it's comfortable, clean and convenient to ski fields and Tahoe City. It's extremely likely that if you choose this property, you'll have an excellent experience. My complaint is entirely with how the property manager and owner responded to our first night difficulties.
