Elevate Your Stay: Lake Views LX66

5 out of 5 average rating, 25 reviews1 month ago

This home was absolutely charming, cozy and fantastically appointed. The beds were very comfortable along with the bedding. All bedrooms and bathrooms were prestine. The living area and kitchen was very spacious and welcoming....outside of skiing we barely wanted to leave as we enjoyed the space so much. The fireplaces warmed us up quickly and the hot tub was constantly hot as soon as we were ready to jump in and enjoy the view from the top floor after long days of skiing. The owners were very kind and responded very quickly. We can't wait to visit again.

Upscale Ranch w/Hot Tub by Meadow

4.92 out of 5 average rating, 12 reviews1 month ago

Chris’s place was perfect for our group of six on our Tahoe trip. The beds were comfy, the hot tub was a dream after a long day, and the location was great - nice and quiet with walking trails for the non-skiers, but still super close to Heavenly and all the restaurants. Chris was an awesome host - he even stopped by late at night to show us around. I also made the rookie mistake of leaving my jacket in the closet, and Chris sent it back right away. Would definitely stay here again!

Beautiful Serene Log Cabin, Hot tub

5 out of 5 average rating, 18 reviews1 month ago

Alice’s place was a perfect fit for our family. It was spacious yet cozy, remote and peaceful, yet conveniently located, and had all the amenities and touches of home. We had the best time sledding at the local hill she recommended to us, skiing at sugarbowl a quick drive away, and cooking delicious meals in their open concept kitchen. Not to mention the hot tub! Highly recommend.

Tahoe City Lake view & Lakeside Multi-Family home

4.93 out of 5 average rating, 91 reviews2 months ago

We are a three generation family of nine who love to ski. We were new to Lake Tahoe. This was a wonderful home for our group - each bedroom had a private bathroom as well as a fireplace and TV. The kitchen and living areas were spacious, clean and comfortable. We loved (and used often!) the sauna and hot tub and enjoyed the pool table and game room. Great place that we would be happy to book again.

We stayed at Skyler's for a family Thanksgiving. we were there for 5 days and we could not have asked for a better time! The kitchen was incredibly stocked with general needs, and it was huge! The house itself was gorgeous, warm, and so welcoming. We had so many questions leading up to our stay and Skyler answered them all quickly and completely. Overall, everybody left saying what a beautiful house it was and how perfect it was for our Thanksgiving needs!!

Brook’s place is amazing. The location is walking to everything in Kings Beach but also very quiet. The photos don’t do the yard justice, it’s GIANT. The house is spacious and cozy. It is very well thought out and has everything you could need for a long term stay. Brook is a great host, super communicative and friendly. We were so lucky to find the place and can’t wait to be back. Thank you!!!
