Great place!

We had a great stay—everything was clean, comfortable, and just as described. Would definitely come back! The property manager is very responsive and understanding. The property is close to all Tahoe city attractions.

Multi stage California Tour

We enjoyed staying at Steeple Retreat as part of a multi-stage tour that started in San Francisco and went onto Yosemite and Sequoia via Lake Tahoe. Steeple Retreat was a perfect place to rest and relax after three busy days in San Francisco and a long drive. We enjoyed the local area and some scenic walks and Steeple Retreat was ideal. Julie at West Lake Properties was always helpful and provided any information we needed.

VRBO tahoe

The location was good. Living space in the property was very nice. Complaints pertain to the mattresses and furnishings of the bedrooms. Mattresses seemed very old, hard and squeaky and furnishings were pretty dated including bedding. Otherwise enjoyed our stay.

Tahoe get away

The house was lovely. The kitchen was super nice. My only complaint is the bed was very hard but that didn’t seem to bother my sleep. Thank you for your hospitality.

Comfy cozy

Very nice and clean. All the modern amenities with an open floor plan. One of the best we’ve ever stayed at. Just a little bit of a hike to the resorts but worth it if you prefer a country comfy cabin
