About this property

Tonto's Casa | 4 Bed, 1 Bath

This is my newly renovated, uniquely appointed 3 bedroom home w/ hot tub and a special permit to share it. Centrally located and packed with amenities, this is an ideal vacation home to soak in Tahoe lifestyle. SUPREME location less than 1 mile from the Lake / Marina, and 1.5 miles from Casinos, Downtown, Heavenly Ski Area, and countless dining options. I personally care for and appointed this home with no details over looked. Large hot tub, luxury mattresses, patio, dart board, and more!

This home is built to relax, and entertain. Below is a long list of features / details, but first:

* Gardens throughout filled with Russian sage, butterfly bush, all kinds of berries, rhubarb, spices, herbs, flowers, shielded in a bit by evergreens and aspens with a staple Japanese maple :)

7 guests max at all times. And 7 requires 1 or more individuals on the huge couch (2 can easily sleep there). Parking for 2 cars Max - no on street parking @ anytime. No hot tub use after 10PM.

I ask and expect guests to be respectful of my house, neighbors, and community. It's just the right thing to do. No loud music, loud outdoor activity, or hot tub use from 10PM-9AM.

If you have any questions at all, want to make an offer on a longer stay, or questions about South Tahoe - I am here to help.

There is a camera on the driveway / front yard area (exterior only).

I live here to, occasionally which helps keep the home at a high end level, and also why much of the calendar is booked in advance. This house is a fully appointed vacation home, with all my belongings out.

I care deeply about my house, neighbors, and ask guests to do the same. Families live just beyond back yard fence, and across the street. Service team may access property to service hot tub and water outside new plantings once per 2-3 days or so, but will not go inside home.

MUST be quiet after 10PM, with no hot tub use or really any back patio use after 10PM. $2000 penalty per VHR fine (exceeding 7 persons, excessive noise, hot tub after 10PM, trash left on property outside, and/or parking violations and exceeding 2 vehicles). These fines are assessed by the City of South Lake Tahoe!

For all non Airbnb bookings: Cancellation may include a small fee for payment processing, especially if it's because the group is over occupancy. Please confirm the local occupancy rules before booking if unsure.

We expect all guests to be respectful, mature, and responsible. There is a zero tolerance policy abusive and negligent guests, loud groups, etc. If you want to squeeze 10+ people into a house and party hard, this is not it. This is a tasteful, and well appointed home - please treat it as your own.

Guests agree to comply with the City of South Lake Tahoe's Vacation Home Rental ordinances and our rental agreement (emailed separately), and failing to do so, or violation of home rules in the listing, may result in egregious penalties, forfeiture of security deposit, and even eviction. Visit the City of South Lake Tahoe's website and see our listing for current ordinance and home rules, as these are incorporated into this agreement. We are very eager to share this home with travelers from all over. If you have any questions, want to negotiate a longer stay, or anything else at all - please let us know!

About the host

Hosted by VRA Tahoe

Host profile image
I am a hospitality professional, and this is my personal home I have lived in for over 10 years (purchased 5 years ago). I've made constant improvements to this property, and just completed a surface renovation lasting 14 months. This property is inspired by the lifestyle I live in Tahoe - relaxing, celebrating, and being active. I love music, sports, traveling!

Why they chose this property

This is a home of love. I love its coziness, location, and features.

What makes this property unique

Very easy to find and direct Key-box access. Tons of amenities and features with no detail over looked. It's within 1 mile of pretty much anywhere you want to go, and a public transportation bus stop is a 2 minute walk away. In addition to the house itself, is the hospitality and care that goes into each guest. Professional laundry operations, fully stocked USA made, organic supplies24/7 response, mid stay spa treatments, and more.
