The stairs leading up to the residence were very steep and long. Would be very difficult for seniors. The shower control in the master bath is not working properly. The master shower had body wash and shampoo bottles but both were empty. Could not get the hot water to come on in the master shower. The faucet in the kitchen is barely secured to the sink. It is loose and wobbles. The p trap under the kitchen sink is full and leaks out on to the sink cabinet. There was a bowl placed under the p-trap but the leak still spilled out over the bowl and onto the kitchen floor. There was a piece of partially burned wood and ashes left in the fireplace stove. The guard rail on the outside deck does not seem solid.

Overall a very nice place to stay. One thing to note is the drive way is very steep and the snow/ice is not making it any easier to drive up. So make sure you drive a car/suv/truck that ha enough ground clearance. Other than that, nice cozy place. Got everything you need. Washer/dryer. Wifi could be faster but its understandable given the location.

Four of us (two couples) stayed here for a nice long weekend in the Tahoe area. The cabin was just as pictured, a little dated, but plenty of clean linens and a decently well stocked kitchen. They even had some baggies, plastic wrap, and basic oils and spices available. They also provided dish soap and laundry detergent which is a nice plus! It was a hot weekend and since the house had been closed up, it was hot inside until the first night. If you visit during a hot month, bring some fans with you, they had a small one in one of the bedrooms, but the two box fans we brought with us were a huge help in cooling the place off. There were a handful of things about the property that need to be addressed. We shared most of these with the Grand Welcome team during our stay. - Shelves in pantry very dirty - need to be fully wiped down - Cereal and crumbs on the kitchen table when we arrived - Most glasses had an oily residue on them - we washed each one before using - Light in pantry/laundry area doesn’t work (it’s the socket or something, we tried a working lightbulb in there) - Socket under the bar/kitchen pass through doesn’t work - Also missing lightbulb and at bottom of staircase (outside) - this felt unsafe at night - Outside stairs are also a bit old/slanted - not the easiest/safest to navigate - Lockbox instructions in welcome email do not match the instructions in the welcome text message (did get help when we called the number provided for assistance) - Cobwebs on light fixture over the dining table (it’s not up too high to reach) - Screen door to porch had holes where bugs kept getting in It would also make the place a bit more comfortable if they added a couple of chairs to the living area. We ended up bringing in a couple of chairs from the deck so the four of us could use the area to sit and visit. Overall, it seemed like the place has been used/rented for years, but when this company took over, they didn’t deep clean or address some basic maintenance issues. I hope they will do so before the next renters use the place.
