Son and I enjoyed our 4 night stay here. Was very quite due to off season. Leena was always quick to respond when needed ( broken coffee pot, upstairs toilet issues). I do want to mention, I did not read the fine print before booking and paying to find out you have to fill out and pay “SuperHog” for a background check.

Nice property. Very clean and comfortable with one exception. There seems to be some issue with the plumbing that keeps a water pump system going off randomly at all hours. The pump is loud. Happened throughout the night which made sleeping a challenge.

Great location
Spacious townhouse in a quiet neighborhood about 5 mins walking distance from the lake. Perfectly located between Tahoe City and Kings Beach and about a 20 min drive to Truckee. Hot water in the shower doesn’t last very long and I saw numerous black ants in the kitchen. Otherwise, I really enjoyed my stay and would stay again :)

Great summer stay in Carnelian Bay!
The condo was a great value and lived up to expectations. We had a family of 5 with 3 kids and enjoyed our stay. There was plenty of sleeping space, and comfortable couches to relax. The downstairs bed was pretty firm. The kitchen was well stocked, including staples and spices. We enjoyed the small patio with a beautiful view of the forest. We went to the lodge and used the pool and hot tubs - highly recommend! It was an oasis in the trees. We were one of the furthest condos from the lake, which we didn't realize from the listing (but that was OK!). Overall everything went smoothly and was a great stay!

Tahoe getaway
We started our vacation early with 2 nights at this cute and very clean condo. Condo is well stocked with pots, pans, glasses and cups. Stove boils water in record time (seriously...it was mind-blowing). For Garwood's fans, location is across the street and a very makeable walk up the the hill (in the summer). Pool is very big and clean as well. Small deck overlooking lots of trees through slider in living area. Great instructions from Leena. Would totally book again.
