Cozy North Shore Lake Tahoe Cabin
it was warm, cozy and welcoming. Glenn is one of the best host we've had and we have rented quite a bit. A very seasoned host. The cabin was very clean, and had many amenities.

Mid week summer deals! Steps to Lake & GarWoods!
We had such a great stay here with family and friends over the weekend! The cabin was beautiful, in a great location, and the host was super friendly and responsive. One thing that really stood out was how well-stocked everything was, which isn’t something we’ve typically seen at other Airbnbs. The kitchen had everything we needed, from pots and pans to coffee machines, spices, and seasonings, which was perfect since we did a lot of cooking. Just a heads-up if you’re a coffee person: they provide the machines but not the coffee, so be sure to bring your own! The place was also dog-friendly, which was a huge plus. We loved that there were tons of games, activities, and even outdoor gear to keep everyone entertained. You can tell the host really cares about the guest experience, and we’d definitely stay here again. Highly recommend!

Lakeside Tahoe Cabin w/ Private Beach + Sleeps 8
Claire was always responsive and kind. The cabin was amazing for our family's Christmas trip. Beautiful surroundings and view! Kitchen accommodated cooking a full Christmas dinner, the dining area was perfect for family puzzles and board games, and the ping pong and foosball were a hit with everyone. A Christmas we are sure to cherish forever.
Tahoe City 3BR sleeps 8 close to Palisades Tahoe
We had a wonderful stay! Great location on the water and near the town and great restaurants. It was so lovely to wake up to the gorgeous lake view from the master bedroom in the mornings. Would definitely stay here again!

North Lake Tahoe Vacation Home
Mike’s place was great! Awesome value, very convenient location.

999 Lakeshore | Beachfront Ski Cabin | Tahoe (#47)
Cindy place was amazing! It’s located right next to the Hyatt which we did not take advance of (but wish we did)! It was very easy to get to Mt. Rose to ski every day. The place was very clean, and it had cable tv. We totally want to come back here next year for New Years and hope they will host us again!

Mid-Century Modern A-frame cabin by the lake
Laura was an incredible host. She responded promptly to texts and calls with the many questions I had. She was always very helpfull, very pleasant and accommodating. We were delighted with our stay.

LAKEFRONT CABIN // Stay right on Lake Tahoe!
We had a wonderful stay at this beautiful lakefront property! The place was spotless, well-organized, and had everything we needed for a comfortable visit. Diane was an amazing host—responsive, welcoming, and made sure we felt right at home. The location is perfect, just a short drive from all the popular shopping areas and great breakfast spots. I highly recommend this place to anyone visiting Lake Tahoe—you won't be disappointed!

Tavern Shores - Steps to Lake / Walk to Tahoe City
Very clean and all the supplies etc needed to have an enjoyable and relaxing stay. Bathrooms, Beds and bedrooms were excellent. Would stay here again.

Award Winning Truckee Cabin, Creekside setting
We had a fantastic stay at this beautiful house by Donner Lake. The home is spotless, well-maintained, and offers breathtaking views of the mountains. The lake is just a short walk away, which made it easy to enjoy the outdoors. The kitchen was fully equipped with everything we needed for cooking, and the WiFi was fast and reliable — perfect for both relaxing and staying connected. MaryAnn is a wonderful host: very responsive, kind, and always ready to help. We’d love to come back if we get the chance!

Tahoe Lakefront Escape, Private Beach
Winans family was an absolute pleasure to stay with, the apartment was spotless, and they provided excellent local recommendations," "We had a wonderful stay . The communication was fantastic, the location was perfect, and the property was well-maintained,

Spacious and Bright Updated Mountain Home
I stayed at this lovely home when I was in Truckee for a wedding and it was perfect for my stay. The home was clean and cozy with clear instructions for everything. It is well stocked with plenty of kitchenware, towels, extra blankets, and more. The layout and location were ideal and in a nice quiet neighborhood. There is a big driveway and a garage you can park in. Sean was easy to communicate with and responsive. I didn't need to reach out to him, but it was nice to know he would be available. I would easily stay here again the next time I am up in the Truckee area.

Relax. Unwind. Recharge. | Serene Lake House
Love Neals place, so serene, literally! The three bed was great for our family. The kitchen was very well stocked and the road the home is on is so sweet. In the winter, be prepared for snow for the ski bunnies! Soda springs is at the highest elevation… We came looking for snow and found it. I bet the lake in the summer is gorgeous too. Thank you Neal!

Near Palisades, NStar, Lakeside, Hot Tub
It is a great place and a great location. This place is actually newer than we thought before from the photos.

*Walk to Everything! Lake Beach/Ski Resort/Casinos
Our Daughters and Families (8 people) started planning this trip thinking it would be hard to find a place big enough and close enough to all the activities and nice enough for three teenaged girls to be happy with. Well, we found all of that and more at Eric's house just a few blocks away from the Heavenly Gondola and all of the shops and restaurants and anything else you would want in the South Lake Tahoe area. The house sits just far enough away from all the noise and crowds to be quiet and calm and homey. Inside, the house is set up perfect for a large group or family with 4 nice sized bedrooms and 3 bathrooms and even a kitchen upstairs and downstairs. We cooked a large breakfast every morning to get us thru the ski day. Back to the house to change clothes, find a spot for dinner and head back to the comfort and warmth of this house, discuss the day and time for sleep which was comfortable on all of the beds. The washer & dryer came in handy as well. Perfect place! Thank you Eric!

Truckee River Bike House
Christine was very kind. She left the porch light on for us to find the place since we were coming in later than the original check-in time. The place was very cozy and private, which we loved. It has all the necessary amenities. We had the best weekend here!

Northstar serenity - ski in / ski out condo

Lovely 2 Bedroom 2 Bath Condo in NorthStar!
Jared's condo is close to village and very close to the shuttle. Very convenient! All windows have a beautiful view of the woods. Nice open floor plan with cozy fireplace. As for Jared, we asked if he had a meatloaf pan...and he got us one! Totally unexpected and appreciated. Would definitely go again.

Gorgeous Remodeled Condo at Lake
The stay was amazing with the family. The room had all the amenties, The balcony had a great view of the mountains. It was quiet. All the restaurants and other activities were very close. The room had board games, puzzles and jenga for the kids. Beach items where in the storage shed. The host had heated blankets so we didn't feel cold at night. Check in and check out was very smooth and the Delores had pretty detailed instruction. Would definitely stay here for the convenience of the location and it was just a home at a different place.

Northstar Resort Ski IN-n-OUT Condo
Very good family ski in ski out condo for spring break. Well stocked kitchen and updated appliances. Clean bathroom with plenty of towels etc. Comfy couch and living area. A little bit of a walk (with stairs) from the parking area so if you have senior members of your group keep that in mind. Very easy to get to and from the slope (ski down to gondola in 15 seconds). Village run returns you right to parking area for the condo.

Renovated Condo Close to Beach and Ski Resorts
Wonderful place for a peaceful escape from daily life. The neighborhood is quiet yet conveniently located, and the well-stocked kitchen was a big plus. Mihai was incredibly friendly and helpful—always quick to respond. I’d definitely recommend staying here!

Tahoe, Northstar Resort Condominium in Truckee!
The location is great, quiet with beautiful surroundings. I would give John 5 stars. He is a great host and very responsive. He kindly accommodated our early check-in and late check-out, which we really appreciated. For the place itself, I would give 4 stars. It could use a bit of maintenance, specifically, the dishwasher needs some attention, and the heater in the master bedroom was a bit too loud. However, everything else worked fine for a comfortable night’s sleep after a full day of skiing.

Mtn Condo/Studio*Kings Beach*Hot Tub*Wi-Fi*Ski
It's a very cozy space. Small but still contains everything one would need for a long term stay. Not a great cellular signal, and apparently they have blackouts from time to time, but this isn't reflective of the host. Just an fyi if you're needing a stable cellular connection. The wifi is strong enough as well, apart from unforseen loss of electricity.

McCloud Condo Sweet Serenity
Great place to stay! 5 minute drive to Diamond Peak for skiing. Close to local restaurants. The condo was comfortable, cozy, and warm (we visited in the winter) with everything we needed for a pleasant stay. Thank you Janet and team!
