About this property

Roomy 5 BR/3 BA Great Location Tahoe City Home

Our home is very comfortable, attractively furnished, more than fully equipped and accommodating for groups of family and friends.

Beautiful new wood floors on the main floor which has cathedral ceilings and includes our open living room, dining room and kitchen with center island. Both the living room fireplace and the dining room stove are wood burning.
Dining room table seats 12 with more seating in the breakfast nook and at the kitchen island.

New carpet throughout the rest of our home with 2 bedrooms on the main floor, each with queen beds and a beautifully remodeled bath upstairs with large walk in shower. On the lower level there are 2 full baths, 1 king, 1 queen and a bunk room with 2 single bed over double bed bunks. There are a couple of rollaway beds, queen aeromattress and pack’n play, high chair seat, baby monitor, stair gates for little ones. Laundry Room is on the lower floor as well.

Our home is fully equipped with linens, kitchen staples, all typical small appliances (including Instantpot, large Electric Frying Pan, Crockpot), paper products, bath products/hair dryers. WIFI throughout the house; TV/DVD in living room, upstairs bedroom and in the bunk room.

Firewood and snow removal are provided in winter. We plow in front in the winter so there is enough parking for about 4 cars on flat ground along with a single garage space.

There are 2 furnished decks - large one in the fenced back yard (with tree house) and the balcony in front. There is a Weber gas barbecue.

We are just outside of Tahoe City off of 89. It’s 10 minutes to Squaw Valley and Alpine Meadows (Palisades) ski areas. Homewood Ski Area is south of us. There is a a sledding hill and ski hill at Granlibakken which is 5 minutes from here.

The bike trails are 1 block from the house and tennis courts, park and playground just down the road. Many great beaches are found here, one in Tahoe City and several south of us. Meeks Bay is our family favorite.

Tahoe City is a great lakeside town with lots of restaurants, shops, grocery stores, etc. Truckee is about 15 minutes from here - South Shore Casinos and Reno are about a 45 minute drive. Stateline Casinos are about a 30 minute drive.

Short but sweet
We had planned a day trip only for the kids to learn how snowboard. When I ran across her home on VRBO. The place was perfect for a party of 12 and the kids played outside in the backyard till dark building snowmen and sledding. We all had such a wonderful time on your lovely home! Thank you so much!!!!

Perfect Location for Palisades Tahoe
Our group of 10 had an amazing stay at this Tahoe home. The house was spacious, comfortable, and had a warm, homey feel that made us feel right at ease. There were plenty of beds for everyone, and the layout was perfect for a group looking to relax after a long day on the slopes. The kitchen was well-equipped and made meal prep easy, and the quiet neighborhood added to the peaceful ambiance. Plus, the location was fantastic—just a short drive to Palisades Tahoe for skiing. There’s also a shuttle stop down the street if you don’t want to drive up. Safeway is a few minutes away as well. Highly recommend this rental for anyone looking for a cozy and convenient mountain retreat!

Roomy Tahoe City Rental
This home was a good size for my big family - children to grandchildren. From the bedrooms to living areas, we didn’t feel on top of each other. The kitchen was well stocked, & we enjoyed using the barbeque. The location was within driving distance to the beach, river rafting, Tahoe City (miniature golf-restaurants) & a nice playground for the kiddos. We all enjoyed our stay!

Had a great time in Tahoe! Tons of snow. The girls had a blast with their friends skiing and sledding. The cabin was huge and very cozy at the same time. It was perfectly located near Tahoe City. Everything was clean and comfortable. I would come back for sure.

Great house for large group on ski holiday
This is a perfect house for 3 or 4 families going on a ski vacation. There are lots of bedrooms, comfortable beds, and enough bathrooms and showers to accommodate a large number of people. The house is clean with lots of living space to play games and hang out. Of special note is the large very well-stocked kitchen. We were able to make shared meals and desserts -- there are all sizes and kinds of pans, pots, and baking dishes. Also, great communication with the host. Thank you Irene!

Great Tahoe Cabin in Great Location
We rent frequently up in Tahoe 1-2 weekends a month during ski season. This place has a ton of beds to sleep, spacious, and a great cabin vibe. Also less than a mile from Tahoe City and a short car ride to Palisades/Alpine. Will definitely rent again! The pictures do not do it justice.

Great spot for a big group!
My friends and I stayed in Irene's cabin for a ski trip to Palisades tahoe. The cabin was very conveniently located right by tahoe city, which made it an easy drive to the resorts. The property was very well maintained and there were plenty of beds for everyone. Irene was very responsive about communications. Would definitely recommend!

wonderful, well-appointed home
We stayed at the bear lodge for a ski weekend (a large group of friends with kids), and we all very much enjoyed our stay, those who spent the day on the slopes and came back to hot showers and warm fireplaces, and those of us who spent the day around the house -- relaxing and reading in comfortable armchairs and on cozy sofas. It felt like home.

Great house and location
We recently stayed at this vacation rental with family and friends. I thought the property was excellent and in a great location. The rooms were nicely kept and maintained, and the unit had everything as mentioned in the listing. The kitchen was also well equipped, making cooking meals easy for our group. Due to the snow, the side entrance was inaccessible, so the lower-level rooms were only accessible after going through the top level. Another small issue was that checkout could be easier. After paying so much in cleaning fees, I don't want to wash and dry all the linens. Overall, however, this is a pretty good property for large families.

Beautiful area
The house was nice, spacious enough for our family, friends and kids. The best fence was a little intimidating, and the branches and snow that fell off the roof scared some of us, but the owner informed us of everything well in advance and we were all fully aware of the possibilities. Well taken care of with more than enough information and help from the owner

Great location!
Fabulous spot walking distance to hiking trails, Tahoe City, and the lake. A quick drive to Alpine or Palisades. Having some of the bedrooms downstairs was great for putting kids to bed. The layout is kind of weird with two separate staircases, but the rooms were all nice, the kitchen had everything we need, and tons of seating for a large group. The deck was spacious and great for everyone to hang outside and grill. While we were there there happened to be a ton of pollen falling from all the pine trees in the yard, so we had to wipe furniture off every time we used it. Tons of towels and bathroom supplies. I'd definitely stay again! Thanks!

College Graduation Getaway
The layout of the house was perfect for our large group and was especially accommodating to different schedules. The noise from the upstairs does not travel at all to the downstairs bedrooms, which was great for both the night owls and early risers. The kitchen is well stocked with every size and type of pan, serving dish and utensil. Everyone enjoyed the location as well. It is a short walk into Tahoe City and the lake, plus the house is conveniently located near major roads. The bear fence is a little intimidating, but Irene provided very thorough instructions that even included photos.

Great stay
House was wonderful, 3 rooms in the first floor 2 rooms in the second floor. Big full kitchen and awesome dining table. It was a perfect place for 3 family gathering. 10-15min drive from Alpine/SquawValley. It seems there are bears around. We didn't lock the car door (no food inside) and we found bear footprint inside the car while door was opened in the morning. So, don't leave the car door unlocked. Irene provided very detailed information before our arrival and we all enjoyed our stay very much. Looking forward to visiting this house again in the future.

Great place and location
When I was looking for a cabin to rent for the 4th of July weekend, I needed to make sure that it had at least 4 bedrooms, Wi-Fi, a fenced back yard, a deck, a barbecue, in a good location and enough room in the kitchen area for our big group to play games and eat meals together. This cabin met all those requirements and more!! Not only did the cabin have all that, it was fully stocked with all necessary pots, pans, mixing bowls, appliances, glassware, silverware, cookware and all paper products. I usually bring up my big sauté' pans that I am used to cooking in and big pots for boiling pasta. You do not need to worry about brining any of that to this cabin. This cabin is stocked with the best of equipment. Our dogs really enjoyed the back yard and we really enjoyed being out on the back deck, barbecuing and eating dinner. There is also a deck off the family room that overlooks the lake side and it was so nice to sit out in the morning and have our coffee and visit. The family room furniture is so comfortable and inviting. The Wi-Fi was great as we had iPads and laptops. There was never a problem with the connection. There were beach chairs and beach towels to use so we didn't have to bring our own from home. The location was only about 1 mile from Tahoe City. What a beautiful cabin and the owners were easy to work with. We would rent this cabin again!! Thank you for making this cabin so warm and inviting.

Great Place, Great Owners, Not Optimized for Blizzard
Let me start off by saying that Irene/Greg are good, responsive hosts. The house was nice and fit our group of 14 adults comfortably (ski trip). Our stay was unusual: it was a week after 3ft of snow and 3ft more came down while we were there (Feb 2019). If you are visiting the house in similar conditions, there are a few things to be aware of: 1) There is only one snow shovel (plus one kid shovel). If there is snow in the forecast, bring several of your own for digging out cars. 2) The road on which the house is located is one of the last to get plowed. During our trip, the snow from overnight Sat to Sun was not cleared until Sun evening. During that time, it was impassable for small cars (even with chains: not enough clearance). 3) They suggest that you park at least six feet back from the roof line. However, that distance is not enough: it only accounts for medium snowfall. While we were there, half the roof's worth of snow came crashing down. Due to the slant of the roof, the snow which came from higher up acted as a projectile, shot forward several feet, and dented the hood of one of our cars. It was scary! I would strongly recommend only parking on the lower half of the driveway. It may not be plowed wide enough to fit two cars side by side. We were just barely able to park out two smallest cars out of the street. 4) Getting the driveway cleared when there has been heavy snowfall is a challenge. Irene/Greg have a contract with someone who comes by with a plow, but they are hard to reach and will only plow if there are no cars in the driveway. This means you need somewhere else to park your cars temporarily. In our case, we got permission to park in the driveway of a neighbor who was away. We waited outside for the plow to arrive and then moved our cars. 5) When there have been 8+ feet of snow during the season, the bear box may be completely inaccessible, so you should talk to Irene/Greg about alternatives. We got permission to use the neighbor's. 6) The hot water occasionally stops working due to ventilation issues. Resetting it sometimes works. In our case, it failed twice. The first time it restarted after one attempt. The second time it took six attempts. Overall, despite a few hiccups, we had a great time! We would definitely recommend the place to friends. If we stayed again, we would probably bring extra shovels and only bring four cars instead of five so that we could avoid the upper half of the driveway entirely.

About the host

Hosted by Irene Fuller

Host profile image
We bought our 2nd family home in Tahoe City twenty plus years ago and spend many happy, fun times throughout the year there with our children, grandchildren and friends. It’s a big house, with plenty of space for gathering in the open kitchen and living area on the main floor as well as private bedrooms for the adults to get away and plenty of room in the 4 bed+ bunk room for the kids.
We do enjoy sharing our home with the “perfect guests” who we feel will appreciate it, take care of it and love it as much as we do. We like to feel we know our guests and they us.
We do allow pets as we understand wanting to bring our fur babies along on family vacations, AND we know the toll even perfect pets take on a house. With the brand new flooring throughout the house, we are limiting the number of pets to 2 dogs.

Why they chose this property

Love Lake Tahoe both summer and winter and the west shore is perfect location for both.

What makes this property unique

Great big, open living area with balcony off the living room and big deck in large fenced back yard. Plenty of private space in 4 bedrooms furnished for adults and the 4 bed+ bunk room for the kids.
