Spent three days at Lake Tahoe and this was a lovely, cozy spot. There are three good sized bedrooms with comfy beds. Fully-equipped kitchen is so nice in a rental. The host, Jane, was helpful whenever needed. We'll be back!

Was in Tahoe over Labor Day for a wedding. This Vrbo was exactly what we were looking for as it was close to the wedding venue. June was great and very response to any questions we had.

We were very pleasantly surprised. My family and I visit Tahoe a few times a year and we absolutely will come back when there’s snow. The place was very clean and very surprised to see all the goodies and condiments. The first morning, I was so excited to enjoy a hot cup of coffee early in the morning to watch the sunrise on the patio. The property owners were very friendly and communicated with me the entire weekend. She was so nice to even allow me to re-enter the property when I forgot my jewelry in the medicine cabinet of one of the bathrooms after we had already checked out.
Definitely want to go back again… We were thrilled that there was a hiking trail so close by the lifts. We spent a day hiking together exploring and breathing fresh air away from the city. It’s a very quick and scenic drive down the mountain to where all the action is by the lake.

We really enjoyed this beautiful and cozy-yet-spacious place. Convenient (short walk) to the slopes, great views from high up, good-sized bedrooms, beautiful floors and ceilings in the common areas -- and terrific personal attention and responsiveness from the owner. (and epic powder!)

Tahoe is beautiful! Yes it is record snow year which is amazing. Kudos to the hard working people cleaning roofs and walkways. It was about three flights of what would have been steps to the condo - the steps were very dangerous and not cleaned - very narrow due to this and difficult to bring luggage and groceries up. We left our ski gear at the rental place as there was no way to carry them up(yet all the other properties on this street were clear and walkable) very dangerous. Some bulbs burnt out, and laundry room was wet with obvious washer leak . Again kudos to the workers though who did help us clean steps somewhat to be walkable and remove the 4 feet of snow that was left within 1.5 feet of our door

Spacious yet cozy property, very close to Stagecoach lift for some Heavenly skiing!

Falsehood #1: This property says "6 minutes from the casinos and center of Lake Tahoe Village". That is a lie. In the summer on a clear day, maybe it's 15 minutes to Rt. 50 on a winding mountain road. In winter? When the roads are in rough condition with snow & ice, it was 20 minutes to Rt. 50 and another 5-10 to the Tahoe village. We had to alter our plans when we arrived in the afternoon to ensure we had enough food and water because it was too dangerous to drive down that road in the dark and ice to get dinner.
Falsehood #2: This property says "Because of the incredible views from this location (and it being Tahoe), there are a lot of stairs up to this residence--therefore, I would not recommend this property for anyone that needs wheel chair access or are physically challenged or not fit." Notice how there are no images of these stairs. That's by design. Because in the winter the stairs were a total liability, poorly shoveled, and had no traction to walk up or down. We traveled with 5 & 8 year old children that couldn't gain footing & were terrified to try to maneuver to get in and out of the condo. This description should really say that this property is not recommended for families with small children in the winter, and should include an image of the steep stairs. Neither is the case.
Had either of these falsehoods been accurate in the description, we wouldn't have rented this property, and so that would be my advice to anyone reading this review. The owner is likely to glibly respond it's Tahoe in the winter, as she does on other negative reviews below. Learn from our mistake. This place isn't worth your time or money.
In addition to the misleading description: We had ants in the bathroom, broken outlets, a broken fireplace heater, and missing lightbulbs in fixtures. Hardly things one would want to deal with on a vacation. While the owner was responsive, and had light bulbs delivered to us, some of the fixtures were high in the ceiling and we could not reach them without a ladder which we did not have. It's not the renters job to do a walk through and list out all the things that need to be addressed. A properly managed property would have this taken care of on their own. Not this place. We were scolded by the owner after our stay for not finding all the issues necessary that her maintenance person could have fixed for us. How about do that before guests check in? If you can't guarantee that, then space out days between guests.

A friend and I enjoyed our stay here very much!! We arrived after some snow storms so it was a challenge getting up the stairs. They were cleared off just enough for us to get up them with our luggage. Parking is convenient right in front. The condo itself was inviting and cozy, especially the living area and gas fireplace. However, the downstairs fireplace was not working and there were no instructions on how to use it. One thermostat controls all levels of the condo and the downstairs is colder than upstairs. Our only issue we had was the upstairs shower would not deliver hot water for more than a couple minutes and this is even when no hot water was previously used. Not sure if it depends on the time of day when the hot water may work. Besides a few light bulbs being out and we couldn't get the washer to work, everything else was great! Anytime we reached out to the owner, we got a quick response. The area is perfect just tucked away about 13 minutes from Heavenly mountain where we went skiing.

We spent Christmas week at this property and we were pleased with several aspects but disappointed in others. This property is in need of some attention. Yes, it sleeps six as advertised, but the three of us consistently lacked hot water. The capacity seemed insufficient. The downstairs fireplace, which the owner explained to me is actually more of a heater, did not work. I reported it on day one of ten but the repair was unavailable. The downstairs TV did not work. The owner said she would send instructions but I did not receive them. The floors are beautiful as advertised. The carpets are old and have seem better times. It is true that one could walk to the Stagecoach lift, but in ski boots, 1/3 of a mile to,the lift is a bit much. The shuttle was reliable and ran every 15 minutes so I availed myself of the shuttle. There are several lightbulbs burnt out. A remote needed new batteries and the lighter for the gas fireplace was empty. The owner rushed over a lighter and batteries day one with muffins, which was appreciated. The owner responds to texts and emails in a very reasonable time. The kitchen is as advertised. Well appointed and clean. The gas fireplace upstairs it’s very nice. Finally, the internet signal was intermittent and challenged to support streaming. The bottom line is that in my opinion, this property needs attention to warrant a higher overall rating than three stars.

Host was always in communication but condo was not shoveled out after storm. Had to lug all baggage through heavy snow. TV's in bedrooms didnt have service. Hot water sketchy. No shuttle service available as stated in rental description. On a good note, rental was cozy and clean and beds were very comfortable. Location was convenient to Heavenly Village.

We had a lovely time in Tahoe and the condo was perfect. Nevada side wasn’t opened for skiing the week we were there but it was a quick drive to the California side. Would love to return!

It happened to be a hot week and there was no AC. But most places in the mountain don't have AC. There were a few maintenance issues, electrical plugs not secured, screens missing, slider didn't lock. The place was clean. Just needs a little TLC.

The place was very clean, comfy, had everything we needed, the only downside is there are a lot of steps up to the condo. The views were spectacular, the beds and furniture super comfy and the owner was very responsive when we needed to contact them due to wifi issue trying to get into the condo.

We had a great time at this property. Nice communication with owner Jane! It is always a little nerve wracking to book a place and hope for the best, so rest assured! Great location and fun for the summer. Looking forward to coming back in winter!!

2 years in the making due to Covid but worth the wait. Unit was in a great location. Jane’s timely communication and willingness to reschedule due to Covid travel restrictions was very much appreciated. Renters should know that there are a lot of steps to the unit and in times of heavy snow can make them trecherous. Overall, a great family vacation.

It was so convenient to be able to walk to the Stagecoach Lift. This allowed for different group members to be free to come and go on their own. All the rooms were cozy and the kitchen was nice for preparing meals.

Perfect for Stagecoach ski
We spent 4 nights in early February here. Really loved everything about our stay. Location was superb; we could walk to Stagecoach parking lot in less than 5 mins. The cabin had everything we needed; fully stocked kitchen (utensils, pans etc). Spent every evening with the fireplace on after a long day of skiing. Would highly recommend staying here.

Lovely get away
Wonderful property, cute and quaint by Heavenly. We really enjoyed our stay. Everything was nearly perfect, and would have been even better if the ski in, ski out was closer. (As you need to walk about a 10 minute walk up the hill to ski out.) Then, our legs were a little cashed walking up the stairs to the house after a day of skiing. But great leg work-out :) We would still stay again, such a cute place and close enough to the hill to still be wonderful.

So perfect!
I am so happy to have found this place. My family and I rented it for Christmas and my birthday. When arriving there is parking next to the stairs, there are a lot of stairs but so worth it. I was so shocked when opening the door to how big this place is. There are a set of stairs that lead to the top where there is a bedroom and kitchen dining area and a set of stairs that go to the bottom half that has the jacuzzi bathtub, laundry room and 2 other bedrooms. I was in love with the jacuzzi it was so perfect. The beds are very comfortable. The place was very clean and did not smell weird at all. The kitchen was pretty much fully stocked and had a lot of dishes, silverware and some spices. The fire place is really beautiful and warm there is one upstairs and a heater downstairs. The balcony has lights that light up and is so beautiful at night. Over all this place was amazing and I would definitely recommend it 100%. I wish I could have stayed longer! We definitely made some beautiful memories. My BF proposed to me on the balcony with candles and flowers and it was beautiful. The owner was so helpful and fast to respond!
