Beautiful home with plenty of space!
Felt like home, we could all fit at the table for meals & games. The filtered view of the lake and bird song in the morning were spectacular! The vaulted wood panel ceilings were incredible and the kitchen, bedroom restroom situations were more than adequate. The management was perfect and we would definitely recommend this amazing home. We wish we knew and were disappointed the lake was too full for our fam to access the private beach. Also, the grandkids didn’t like the feathers poking out of the couch. Great family vacation!

Home away from home
We had an amazing time at Lake Tahoe. This house was the perfect home base as it is situated near everything including an amazing private beach a short 2-3min walk down the road. Seriously, the lake is visible from the drive way and is only a short downhill walk. There was more than enough space for 4 adults. The house was incredibly clean, quiet, and cozy. Well stocked kitchen and spacious rooms. The view from the dinning room/patio deck was a wonderful surprise. Judi was extremely responsive, friendly, and helpful when it came to house questions. I can not say enough good things about the overall experience and home. 10/10!

Cozy Thanksgiving Stay
Very beautiful and spacious home. Short drive to the grocery store and casino area. Easy walk to a private beach area that is very nice. Comfy beds and a nice little deck to sit out on. The fireplace in the front room is also very nice. Owner is very attentive and responsive. Would highly recommend.

Fall weekend
We had a wonderful stay at this perfect house. It is exactly as described, well equipped and comfortable, with a beautiful view of the lake through the trees. It's a short walk to a beautiful sandy beach and there's easy access to restaurants and hiking nearby. The owner checked in to make sure we had everything we needed and communication throughout the process was seamless. We will be back!

Beautiful & functional property 5 minute walk from Lake Tahoe
This Marla Bay home is a gem - it is nice & liveable... There is ample living space, & the deck off the dining room is delightful. Lots of amenities included in the home & it's only a 5 minute walk from Lake Tahoe & the private (accessible to guests) beach. Rooms are spacious, beds are comfortable. We would definitely want to come back to this beautiful spot.
