Great house right by zephyr cove—can’t beat the location. Had the best time here

We had a wonderful stay with family at Christmas time. Thank you so much.

We couldn’t have asked for a better place! Our large group had plenty of space, and the home was well-equipped with more than enough beds for everyone. The location was ideal—just a short walk to the lake. We especially enjoyed grilling and dining out on the deck. Mark was incredibly responsive and helpful throughout our stay. Highly recommend, and we’d absolutely stay here again!

The best thing about this house is the size. It was spacious enough to fit our entire family of 17, with plenty of beds and room to gather. The owner was great—very responsive. The hot tub worked, there were multiple refrigerators, enough propane for the BBQ, and the WiFi was reliable. The walk to the beach was manageable, though a bit scary with kids on a dirt path by a highway. We also appreciated the portable AC unit on the kitchen level and the adequate supply of pots and pans.That said, given the premium cost, we expected less of a run-down feeling. Several issues stood out: not enough silverware and glasses, extra pillows but no extra pillowcases, no BBQ tools, warped balcony boards, broken glass in the Master Bedroom carpet, worn and unclean outdoor seating, an unusable stove burner missing a controller. The listing says “sleeps 10” even though the bed count indicates 20—confusing. Lots of stairs, and at 6,200 feet elevation, even the healthy members of our group felt winded going from the garage to the kitchen. A few of the outdoor steps were unstable, which felt unsafe when carrying heavy items.In the end, we were grateful to have everyone under one roof to celebrate my dad’s 80th—but it felt more like a well-used personal house than a professionally maintained rental. If you’re hosting a big group and come prepared with your own utensils, it can work well—but the value didn’t match the price we paid. Had the rate been lower, it would probably have been a 4-star
