My parents came to visit from PA and had never been to Lake Tahoe! We loved the view of the lake and the cozy feel of the place. We made great dinners, did a puzzle, and overall enjoyed our time in Tahoe. Thank you!

Beautiful property and location. Vrbo were really helpful and responsive to our queries. Very well-stocked property. A few of the towels need replacing (white towels so stains show easily) but overall the property was clean, spacious, and we really appreciated the view of the lake! Thank you so much for the lovely stay!
Great vacation rental, walking distance to a steakhouse and public beach. Had a great stay. 80’s decor was a walk down memory lane. Only strange thing was a large hole in the kitchen counter by the sink that had several old dishrags, silverware, and other items and it kind of smells, and should be covered. Didn’t detract from the stay, just odd.
It was the first time we took the kids to Lake Tahoe and they loved everything about it. Unfortunately 24 hour road work was being done on hwy 28 so the noise at times made it hard to enjoy the setting, but overall it was a great time and the house had everything that we needed.
Property is exactly as advertised. Has everything you need to cook a meal and enjoy beautiful views. Location is walking distance to great beach and hiking trail within a short drive. There is no A/C here but most of the nearby cabins didn’t appear to have A/C either. So you have to open the windows in hot months , thankfully there is a fan to help block out sounds,( birds, nature, people coming and going etc.)
Our family of 6 had a great time staying at this residence. Great Lake view, fully functional kitchen, walking distance to King’s beach. Highly recommended
This cabin has a great view of the lake . The decor is a little dated but cosy and charming .
It is very well equipped in all the rooms . Beds are very comfy . I would recommend .
We had a great experience as a group and really enjoyed the views from the patio. The check-in process was quick and easy and we had no problems at all during our stay.
Overall, my family and I had a great stay at this property. The location to the lake is amazing and we loved the views from the patio. We had a few issues, the major ones being the refrigerator not working properly and broken window screens( hence lots of spiders and bugs inside of the cabin). The property management quickly responded to our concerns and tried their best to remedy the situation. The cabin is outdated, but does have a lot of cozy charm.

Disappointed
The cabin was very dated and is in dire need of repairs and upkeep. The washer and dryer were not working correctly, there is no air conditioning in the unit or no ceiling fans. They had 2 floor fans which were useless as it did not do much to curtail the heat. When we entered the cabin, it was hot and muggy with no air circulation, it was almost impossible to stay there. The bedrooms were very small and the second story was difficult to use due to the heat. Things got cooler at night but still was pretty uncomfortable to sleep. The cabin is located close to Kings beach, like a 5-10 min drive but, the community itself was not in the best location. On and all, we were very dissatisfied and disappointed with just about everything. It's not worth the money.
We had a thoroughly enjoyable stay: memorable meals on the deck, quiet post-hiking afternoons taking in the view, and watching a brief thunderstorm come across the lake. The beach 2 blocks away is nice, and the location is good for hiking near Incline Village (Nevada) as well as South Lake Tahoe.
We stayed for 3 nights and can’t be more happy! Wonderful house, clean, everything organize. House has everything you need. Beautiful view! Great location. Friendly atmosphere. Extremely satisfied!

Beautiful view
Cozy, clean and cute cabin with all of the essentials. We really enjoyed our stay and the view from the deck is amazing!
Loved this cabin! View of the lake was amazing. Circular staircase a little tricky. Very warm and cozy. Stocked well. In great shape. Convenient location in North Shore. We'll probably come back!

Thank you for sharing your home
Location is convenient (close to the lake and groceries). However, we felt the property is not as spacious and new as the images represent. The stair felt a bit unsafe to go up and down.
We had a lovely stay, the views are wonderful and the house is comfortable, kitchen has all you need. The location is superb and close to all beaches, restaurants and skiing/sledding. We would definitely stay here again.
