Perfect stay

Ideal location makes this place perfect for visiting nearby ski resorts. It's close to grocery stores and restaurants and within walking distance of the lake. Our small dog enjoyed the backyard, but we weren't able to let him run off-leash because the back fence door couldn't be locked and there were a few small holes in other parts of the fence. The house is warm, and the heater is not too loud. We loved the large dining table, the upgraded bathrooms, and the inviting fireplace in the living room. It would be really nice to have newer frying pans in the kitchen. Other than that — we truly loved our stay!

Great home for pet friendly getaway!

Everything as described and well communicated from property managers. Our dogs’ first trip to the snow and the backyard was a fantastic playground for them (and us). Cozy and convenient, everything worked. We brought our cable box and connected to WiFi to watch our hockey games in the evening after the day on the slopes. Would love to come back again.

Cozy, super-clean and well located

Such an enjoyable stay over Thanksgiving. The property is well located just out of the main drag of Kings Beach. It’s an older style property but with lovely new bathrooms full of fresh clean towels. Overall it’s very well presented with lovely clean bedding, a great kitchen for cooking a Thanksgiving feast and the perfect fully-fenced yard for our dog. We did a great walk straight from the house, just over the Nevada state line - up above the lake for beautiful sunset views and could drive easily to Truckee and Tahoe City. Highly recommend this place. We would happily stay again.

Roomy and Easy

Although this place is on the main road and is lacking in curb appeal, it was very clean, large, cozy, and close to everything we needed. The back yard is huge and there were plenty of beds for our group of teens. We loved that the rooms were connected for the kids, and we had our own room and bathroom as parents. The wood burning fireplace is a nice, cozy touch. A hot tub would be ideal, but we understand they are not easy to maintain. Otherwise, a great place for a very fair price.

Prime location & Great Backyard

We thoroughly enjoyed this home; the backyard was massive and fenced in, so my dog could prance around in the snow. Also, there was some snow, and the littles could use their sleds. The kitchen is stocked with all the essentials, everything was super clean and well organized. The view from the dining table was beautiful and the last day we were able to enjoy breakfast while watching the snowfall. The location is central to Kings Beach and close to North Star Resort for those who are skiing/snowboarding. The check-in process was a breeze, and all the information we needed was provided beforehand (toiletry needs, wifi, etc.). I would stay here again.

Very clean We ate out so really only used a few utensils. We used coffee pot which was missing basket for the filter. Both screen doors were broken To get fresh air we had to block lower part of door so dog couldn’t get out. Yard was very overgrown Couldn’t let dog off leash because I couldn’t see what was in grass and under bushes

Comfortable Cabin at Northshore Stateline

This home is right on the main road, so a little noisy, but has a setback and large safe backyard great for children and/or dogs. The bathrooms are updated and clean. Some of the beds had plastic mattress covers. Kitchen was well equipped with cooking utensils, etc. Carpets were stained in many places. I took pictures so the owners wouldn’t think it was us if there was a question. Proximity to Speedboat beach swimming and Stateline Lookout a big plus!.

Funky cabin did just the job

House is on the small side but it's just what we needed for our family of 4. Nothing fancy but had everything we needed and good for the price. The house is on a main road which is great in the winter because it's plowed, but be forewarned if you have bolting kids or dogs. Two of the bedrooms are connected so kids sleeping in the bunk bed room have to pass through the other bedroom to get to the living area, and the third bedroom has a full size bed, not a queen, and two adults cannot comfortably sleep in it. Pics are honest and backyard looks huge for spring/summer months.

Rating Details: The property manager was more than 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: Positively memorable stay. Great location. Street noise a non issue. Loved the dog friendly but surprised at the amount and extent of carpet stain throughout. That says more for the inconsiderate renter(s) that could have responsibly mitigated that. And that said, absolutely no odor and easy to overlook due to the coziness and cleanliness and everything else that was so nice.

Great Location

Our group was a big mix of age ranges, spanning 3 generations. The kids loved the books and puzzles provided, which allowed grandma to partake and sip her coffee. The house was clean and had a supply of blankets for some cold nights. We also appreciated the heated bathroom floor. It’s a good location, close to town and a great sledding park. We were a little disappointed in the bed situation which seemed to be different as advertised. The bunk beds were shown with a double as the lower bed but when we got there, the bunk bed was lowered and a twin was used almost as an trundle underneath and a 3rd twin was added to the room. This was tricky for us just due to our sleeping arrangements but made it work. Overall, the place worked for what we needed. Everyone had fun and Our dog loved the fully fenced back yard!

On the highway

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was happy with the location. I was more than satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We were happy with the rental. The rental company was communicative, responsive and very friendly. The only issues we had with the house was that we did not know it was on the highway; with kids and dogs that was less than ideal. The living room furniture was also not very comfortable and that is where we spent most of our time as a family. And even with the odd room layout, the bedrooms and bathrooms were great and spacious. In all it was a great stay. Just wish we knew about being on the highway and the furniture needs to be updated.

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was more than happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We recently had the pleasure of staying at this incredible rental property, and I can’t say enough good things about it! It was so perfect for our family that included an assortment of ages with one fur baby. From the moment we walked in, we were impressed by how spotlessly clean and well-maintained everything was. The home had a warm and inviting atmosphere, making it the perfect cozy retreat.Every amenity we could possibly need was provided—from a fully stocked kitchen to sledding discs. Plenty of extra blankets were also available. We really liked the heated bathroom floors. The location worked well for us. You are on the main road but we never noticed the noise. My adult children and grandchildren asked if we could stay here again.
