This place was perfect for a weekend at the lake with friends! However, the registration process with the rental company was a bit excessive. I don’t agree they need all of the information they requested for just a weekend stay.

Great Getaway
We were traveling for work with my family and 2 pooches and this quaint spot was perfect for our needs. The kitchen was well stocked and the triple bunkbeds for my older kids were large and comfortable. Great spot, we'd definitely stay again!

Cozy
Located a short walk from the lake. This VRBO had everything you need and was very comfortable. Our only suggestion would be more lighting.

Nice
The place was cute. I would suggest putting a pillow top cover over the mattress, the bed was uncomfortable. Also finding the light switches is a little wonky. And unfortunately the neighbors across the street have too many cars and park in front of the house and in dirt driveway.

Ideal location
This cute, 2 bedroom home was perfectly located around the corner from my daughter's home and a short walk to the lake. It was clean and roomy for my husband and me and had an extra bedroom which could sleep another 4 people, but with only 1 bathroom, that would be a little crowded! The kitchen was nice but not well stocked. We had no soup spoons and no cookie sheet. The management company was very responsive to our problems. The wi-fi was not working, and there was no hair dryer.They came out immediately to fix the wi-fi and bring a hair dryer. The first night I had to take a cold shower because the hot water wasn't working, but North Tahoe Rental Co. came out the next morning to fix the problem. When we asked about the broken shade in the master bedroom, we were told the owners knew about it but didn't want to replace it. It would have been nice to be able to open the shade.
