Property offered great amenities (game room, fire pit, lots of acreage for the dogs to explore), however, running water was not operational. From the time we got there at 2pm until the following day at 12pm we did not have water to use the toilets, handwash, cook dinner, or take showers.
Thankfully property manager was very responsive to our situation and did her best to solve the situation (especially during a holiday day), however, it did impact our Thanksgiving dinner.
Another downside, some of the appliances were a bit hard to use (oven was not displaying the screen properly) and we noted that the general state and cleanliness wasn't stellar. We noticed that a lot of the utensils in the kitchen were sticky and unclean and there was some grime in some of the common areas. Having no wifi was kind of a bummer too.
If the property was spruced up a bit, it would make a great rental.
8.0
The property was nice and quiet with plenty of wildlife around. Great for relaxing. There were things that were not clean such as the ice maker which had things swimming in the water that was left in it. The BBQ was filthy and utensils were left inside the BBQ. There were no instructions on using the TVs or the entertainment center. No listing of local restaurants or businesses. No trash pickup on Wednesday as advertised so we had a lot of trash that had to be left in the game room. Have not heard from the listers yet and will add to this review when the deposit is returned. Make sure you take plenty of "as found" pictures, damage all over the house.

Rented this home for a family vacation with cousins. It was perfect for us. 7 bedrooms (two bedrooms were only divided by a curtain, a little strange) and 3 1/2 bathrooms. The master was the only room with a private bathroom and access to a balcony. The lake/pond was great. The kids enjoyed it (it was cold). The overall property was a delight. We just loved it. It was a bummer we couldn’t have a fire in the pits due to no burn notice because they were great fire pits/rings.
Overall we loved it. Probably my only real complaint would be that they need better pots & pans. There were plenty but all scratched up and peeling. But I did discover two electric skillets that were really nice.
And there is no WiFi but we didn’t mind. If you absolutely needed to check something you can drive a little into town to get connection. Just make sure if there is anyone that might need to get in touch with you that they have the landline number.

We overall enjoyed our time together as friends. The property is beautiful. 2.5 stars for the level of cleanliness especially since the cleaning fee is over $400 and you are asked to wash the dishes and strip the beds and start load of laundry for bed sheets which is fine but again large cleaning fee....I definitely felt like we left the home cleaner than we found it. The home WAS NOT filthy but it needs a deep clean and or replacing some things like carpet and cushion seats and a few other things that could add more value to the comfort and attractiveness of the home.

Great setting & secluded- Yet close to lots of amenities
Stayed here for almost a week with family. Was a great time the fact that there are 6-7 true bedrooms is great. Lots of bathrooms made it convenient for folks and there being ability for single level living for some guests who have issues with stairs was great. No cell reception if your AT&T so it’s a good and bad thing but nothing against property just be prepared. Wish there was a way to buy firewood from the owners instead of having to truck it in.
Great place and look forward to staying again in future and can’t wait to see the upgrades they are working on in the interior.

Great property
My family filled up the house from infants to grandmas. Aside from dead batteries in the rv remotes and needing tp, and paper towels the house was as advertised. The pond was a little low making it tricky to hey in and out. And surrounding wildfires shutting down the national forest the state was quiet and wonderful. Something for everyone. We look forward to booking a family trip annually here

Secluded, huge house, great backyard, great kitchen, loved it.
The house had tons of room to accommodate our large group. Kitchen layout was great and very well stocked. Backyard area was perfect. The whole place was secluded, with beautiful trees. Unfortunately the pond was not swimmable while we were there, but CA is in a terrible drought, can't blame the owners for that. Absolutely amazing house, and Denise was great to work with. Would rent it again in a heartbeat.

We've stayed here before and loved it that's why we came back. I did have to do some cleaning & organizing in the kitchen, but that won't stop me from renting again. Check out is too early at 10 am!

I was a great place for watching nature! We saw bears by the lake, water snakes, deer, it was great.

Lots of space and privacy. Nature at its best. House needed air conditioning and some TLC (stained carpets, hard to open back door, broken table by pond). Fabulous place for kids to explore, ride bikes, ride the paddle boat, and use the paddle board. The snakes and frogs in the pond added some excitement. Expecting guests to take trash to street (long, uphill climb) is unrealistic. I called the owner who agreed to get a local to remove trash). No WiFi was a bonus. We played and had great conversations instead of screen time. My family loved our time here and would return.

Outside was beautiful with great pond with paddle boat and kayak. Nice fire pit with picnic tables and umbrellas. Kitchen needed deep cleaning. Some things in kitchen needed to be washed before we could use them. Kitchen Cabinets and drawers needed to be cleaned. Bath mats need to be replaced along with some of the towels and seat cushions on dining chairs and bar stools. No WiFi available.

We had a good time. There was lots to do. Stumpy Meadows lake was very nice and not far away to drive.

The surrounding of the house is beautiful! We really enjoyed our stay. Whitewater rafting, swimming in the American River and fishing in the Stumpy Meadows Lake are so fun! There is no cell phone signal in the house, but there IS wi-fi though. Noticed a small snake in the property's private lake. House needs some fix and maintenance, like water filter in the kitchen and downstair bathroom. House is very spacious and thoughtfully provided a lot of things to play with. Denise is also easy to communiate and very responsive. A very happy trip!

The rental was perfect for a large family getaway. Beautiful grounds and the house had everything we needed. A little deeper in the mountains than we anticipated, but well worth the drive. Would love to come back and do it all again!

Great place!
Our family had an awesome time there. Loved having the pool table/ping pong table to play. The kitchen is huge and the main family room is also quite a bit bigger than what it looks like in the pictures. I'd give it 4.5 stars only because the two bedrooms upstairs with carpet and the rug in the game room had a funky smell. But opening the windows helped a lot. Overall we had a great time. Would consider renting again!

We had an amazing time! The property was gorgeous, we never left. Definitely pack in your ice because the ice maker doesn't work. Other than that, everything was so perfect - our whole party was comfortable and the wide variety of fun things to do on site were amazing. Thanks for making it available for us!
