Suburb home for short or longer visit to Tahoe!

My family (wife, 1.5 year old and nanny) spent a wonderful two weeks in this home. The layout was perfect to keep bedrooms nicely separated from the main living spaces (ideal for a 1.5 year old who goes to bed early and gets up even earlier!). The kitchen was a highlight for us - spacious, modern, with high-end appliances perfect for cooking family meals.There was a small office upstairs with 2x monitors, keyboard and mouse which was a wonderful surprise as we were working (a bit while not skiing) while we visited.We have added this home to our list of favorites we have visited and will certainly be planning a trip back!

Perfect West Shore Home

This large home is very well appointed and well kept, and was the perfect central location for activities across the north, west, and south shores.

Beautiful home that exceeds expectations!

This is a terrific rental home on the west side of Tahoe. It's an easy drive to Tahoe City and Truckee, while also feeling removed from any sort of bustle. The house is massive and more beautiful than the photos suggest. We loved the comfortable beds, great TV, enormous and well-appointed kitchen, and ample outdoor space. Would definitely stay here again in the future.

What a Hidden Treasure

Rating Details: The property manager was more than helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. 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: This home is huge and beautiful! This home is meant for wonderful family reunions and get togethers with a spacious and well equipped kitchen and lovely back yard for all to hang out in while the kiddos gallop around. Great west shore location -- quiet and near good beach. There is ample parking and every little part of the house is well maintained.

Great Gathering Spot for Families

This home is beautiful. High ceilings and well decorated with plenty of room for our family of 11. Nice dining space and kitchen island for meals and gathering and a great room to spread out for movies or reading by the fire. It was equipped with just about everything we needed - as we cooked almost every meal. Our only complaint was that it was more cluttered then expected. The kitchen drawers had food crumbs and stained dishes piled on top of each other (which from the looks of it had been tossed around by previous guests). Games and puzzles had just been tossed into the console behind the couch. Some of the closets in the bedrooms were filled with extra sheets and blankets, and there were only a handful of wire hangers in the whole house – leaving us little room to store our clothes or hang winter coats. Luckily there was an area in the garage for our ski equipment so we managed and took advantage of the boot warmers! Our family enjoyed the house and we all loved the location being 5 min from Tahoe City and 15 minutes from Palisades. I just think someone needs to go in and give the house a deep clean and a thorough inspection!

Beautifully spacious home in Homewood

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 spacious, 5 bedrooms for 10 of us and the layout was such that there was ample open area to spend time with everyone (kitchen, two living room spaces) as well as private areas to take a break or work from the house. The location is great, minutes from Homewood ski resort and Tahoe city, also close to the lake. The yard is large and our children enjoyed sitting outside and playing in the snow. I would recommend any large party looking for a family-friendly rental to book this place.
