A nice stay in the forest

Location is great for a family like mine. We love Tahoe City. I feel lucky a TV repairman was arriving when I did, along with the cleaning crew to finish making the beds. The managers failed to send me the door code until 2:00 AM the morning after check in. I was told I would receive a call from the property management, never received any calls. The downstairs bathroom shower was clogged and fills with water. My family started exclusively showering upstairs, that drain was in working order. All in all we enjoyed our stay. I would have used the private beach cardkey but found no instructions on where to locate the beach. That information should be in the binder.
