Security cameras

They do not face any private spaces, and there are no indoor cameras. Think of them as the neighborhood watch with better lighting ~ Thank you.

Family vacations on the Lake

The cabin is big and is plenty of room for a big family, extra towels and pillows, the only thing that I didn’t like were the beds are uncomfortable. But location is great, nice view three bathrooms which is great if you are traveling with children.

Great Tahoe spot near Alpine

We loved this property. The location was great, close to Truckee in one direction and the lake in the other. It was quiet and you can hear the creek behind the house. It also has a great deck for hanging out and a downstairs bonus rec room (the house is so spacious we didn’t even use the bonus room). Very clean, good amenities. Cell service was spotty but WiFi was great. Check in was easy and the property managers were very responsive and nice to work with. We would stay here again!

Family Friendly Rustic Cabin

Rustic cabin with all the comforts of home. We stayed here with 6 adults/4 kids and had plenty of space for everyone. The cabin had many upgrades not seen in the photos. We were pleasantly surprised by the beautiful new deck which was where we spent most of our time. The cabin came stocked with games for adults and kids. The location was perfect for us. We were close to zip lining and able to walk to a nearby trail. We would love to come back to this cabin!

Relaxing Labor Day Weekend

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We had a wonderful time staying at this home in Alpine Meadows. With 5 guests we were able to spread out and all have our own room. We really enjoyed sitting out on the patio and used the grill one night to make dinner. Another bonus is that there is a trailhead to the five lakes trail 3 blocks from the house. Overall, we had an excellent time staying in this home. Please note, if you do book this property to make sure that you disarm the electric bear protection on the doors and windows. We thought it was off but it wasn't and one of our guests got a nasty shock.

Family Fun

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: We had a great time at the cabin. From the outside the initial experience is the cabin is a bit rustic but the inside has been updated (at least the kitchen and bathrooms). The downstairs room wasn't as usual to our group since we had 5 kids under 5 and the stairs were a bit hairy. A group with older kids would have more use of the downstairs play room and the twin beds room upstairs. Overall, we really enjoyed the stay and the location of the house.

Summer Family Reunion

Rating Details: The property manager was adequately helpful. The vacation rental was clean. I was more than happy with the location. I was satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: This rental was a rustic cabin that matched the on-line photos, housing 10 comfortably. The location was very quiet and peaceful, close to Tahoe City and Squaw Valley. What the photos do not show is a very steep 2 story or more decline from the limited street level parking, making it a challenge to transport goods in/out of the rental as well as navigating the steps which could be very difficult in the winter/snow season. The property needs some minor repairs. There is no yard access, only outside deck with bench seating.
