We thoroughly enjoyed our long weekend at this property. It is in a gated community at the top of the mountain, with a private community swimming pool and Lake Tahoe within a short walking distance. There are also many hiking trails within walking distance. The home itself was very clean and in excellent condition. It was decorated and finished with many high-end touches, above the quality of your typical vacation rental property. The combined living room / kitchen area on the main floor is very large and conducive to keeping the family together, even during meal preparation. There are 3 nice-sized bedrooms upstairs, with the master having a very large bathroom and the other 2 bedrooms sharing a bathroom. There is a 3rd full bathroom on the lower level. Light switches throughout the house were clearly marked, which was a nice touch. Also, all the disposable supplies that you worry about having when you arrive (paper towels, toilet paper, trash bags, etc.) were in good supply - we didn't have to make a run to the convenience store for anything.
The property owner was very prompt and courteous about answering our questions and communicating with us prior to our arrival. She provided a way to contact her during our stay, but I was appreciative that she did not 'check in' with us or drop by the property during our visit, as has happened with other properties I have rented. It really felt like the property belonged to us!
To others that might be considering a summer vacation to this ski resort area, I would just say that there are plenty of summer-time activities to keep you and your family busy.
Overall, I rate this property 5-stars and would highly recommend it to others.
