Great location, covers the basics
This A-frame unit was perfect for myself (downstairs queen), 4 kids (bunk-room) and my friends (upstairs loft king). The location was perfect for getting into Tahoe City for essentials or the ~20min drive to Palisades for skiing. We had a small snafu with plumbing, but the property manager had it fixed as soon as possible with excellent communication. Pro-tip - the downstairs bedrooms got hot, even with the heat turned down to 62. Leave a window open - it still didn't get too cold in the winter, but made sleep more manageable.

Nice place
Booked in June for a December stay. Filtered my search to only show properties with hot tubs. The property listing showed a hot tub for months. I showed the listing to multiple people, including those that traveled with us. We had numerous conversations about how nice it will be with a hot tub on a ski vacation. I would not have booked this cabin if it didn’t list a hot tub. When we arrived we couldn’t find it. I confirmed the listing showed hot tub and it did. So I messaged the host and they said “we don’t see that” and immediately that amenity disappeared from the listing. The host said “sorry, hope you enjoy your stay”. They are not providing any compensation and told me to “take it up with VRBO” because it was a glitch in their system.

Owner was great to deal with.
The place was nice and you’ll find everything you need for your stay. The only downfalls are the internet which is almost non existent and the lack of A/C leaves it uncomfortably warm inside, especially upstairs. The owner was was very responsive and great to deal with.

Fun Family Vacation
We had a great family vacation here (4 people with 2 teenage boys). Some people mentioned not liking the bear wires, but this is pretty standard in this part of Tahoe. Bears have been known to break into the homes! Others mentioned only 1 dish towel, but there were plenty for us. There were also plenty of bath towels provided (including wash cloths). As mentioned in the listing, you do need to provide your own toilet paper and paper towels. In addition, there is no food storage (zip locks, saran wrap, tupperware, etc). There was a roll of foil that I suspect was left by a previous renter. There was not a lot of cupboard space to store our groceries except above the fridge. There was some shampoo and body soap in the upstairs bathroom, but none in the downstairs. I would recommend bringing your own. The cabin itself is cozy and fairly well-equipped except for the above mentioned items. The wifi is not great and we did have to restart the router each day, so don't plan to work from the cabin. If you're in Tahoe, that's the last thing you'll want to be doing anyway! We never turned on the TVs so I can't comment on that part. The couch seems new and was very comfortable and the deck was nice and big!

Cute Little Swedish Cabin!
We attended my son's wedding at Plumbjack, but opted to stay in this cute little cabin. We have family from Sweden and the little Swedish touches in the cabin were heart felt. The outdoor porch was an absolute delight! Penny our property manager has always been so kind and helpful during the entire reservation process. We would love to stay again in the future. Thank you for making our visit a memorable one!

A relaxing place to get away!
This cabin was perfect for our family for our holiday. Because its personal and "well lived in" the vibe was casual and relaxed. In some ways, the informal and personal touches make it a warmer and more hospitable than more modern and austere places. It's not fancy but it's comfy. While not quite walkable in winter, Tahoe City is at the bottom of the hill for some good eats and a small general store. Of note; bring everything you need, as is clearly stated in the description, from TP to coffee; it's a little more "bring your own" than most places. We had a great time and the host was great too!

Wonderful Stay in Tahoe City
Loved this spot, it was up a hill so felt out of town but close to everything at the same time. We loved being in the woods, quiet but with people around so it wasn't super remote. Super bonus was the private beach access, such a pleasant surprise. Just what we needed, all the comforts of home with a cabin feel.

Suited our needs
We wanted a place to stay while we visited our daughter in Tahoe. This house suited our needs perfectly. The house sits in a nice neighborhood that is very close to a popular trail head. The house itself is spacious and the deck is very nice. The beds were very comfortable for both couples staying here. The loft upstairs gets very warm during the day, but cooled off perfectly for a good nights sleep. Overall, the house is well worn but clean and comfortable and priced accordingly. We enjoyed our stay in the beautiful Lake Tahoe area and this house was a great choice for us.

Nice property, it was clean and cozy. It has a partial view of the lake, and everything is neat and in working order. We enjoyed our stay. As the owner points out in their instructions, it is near the top of a hill so be sure to have chains or a 4WD vehicle if you are coming in the winter.

Beautiful Cabin and Location, Terrible Service
This is a property owned by 3 people: a mother, a son, and a daughter-in-law. If you encounter any issues and must contact them, you are in for a difficult time. On the surface, the place looks very beautiful and seems like the ideal location for spending one's holiday residing in. However, We were unfortunately unable to experience any of this cabin's many features and luxuries due to unforeseen weather conditions that ended up blocking off the road to Lake Tahoe. The reason for this one star review isn't the actual house or location of the property, but the service received from the owners. Our family had planned and booked this cabin for several months and made several preparations before driving out 8 hours to this location. On our first day, we drove up 6 hours to Sacramento and planned on driving the remaining two hours the next day. However, there ended up being an extreme snow storm that blocked the highway around Lake Tahoe; there was no way for us to get in anywhere. This pushed us to have to rent an additional hotel to spend yet another night in a different city unfamiliar to us. Afterwards is where the main issue arises. Since we were unable to reach our cabin, we decided to request a refund... which ended up being denied due to the cabin owners’ "policy" of some sort that required customers to purchase an insurance plan in order to receive our money back in case of a cancellation. They said that the snow storm was not their fault that we couldn't make it to their property and we should've bought insurance. The snow storm also wasn't our fault that we could not make it to their cabin and they still charged us despite us not being able to use any of their property or arrive at their location. The snow storm was considered a natural disaster and they still would not reason with us. If they were just following company regulations, it would be understandable. But because the owners blatantly denied giving us our refund despite their legal ability to do so, it is evident that these owners are only after our money and do not care about our customer satisfaction. Think twice before booking at this place.
