About this property

Closest house to the Gondola with Dr Seuss

Once you arrive, park the car and relax! There is garage and off street parking. Not only do we offer North America’s finest ski slopes, we offer a shared house with fine artwork, comfortable classic furniture and several whimsical characters from the imaginative mind of Dr Seuss. Dr Seuss brings back brings fond memories, delighting young and old. A bounty of clubs, casinos, shows, cinemas, boutiques, restaurants, sporting goods shops, art galleries, beaches, and mountain hiking that will take your breath away are all in a 15-minute walking distance!

We are located on a secluded cul de sac only a 5 minute level walk to the fabulous Heavenly Valley Gondola. You’d have a longer walk from the parking lot of any resort! The Gondola takes you up the mountain where you can choose between skiing the California or the Nevada side of the mountain. In the summer, many exciting activities are accessed by this same Gondola. Restaurants abound. You have full kitchen privileges so if you choose to enjoy a meal “at home” from the well-appointed kitchen, Safeway is a 10 minute drive. Right at the end of the block is a public bus stop where you can catch a bus to take you to and from Sierra at Tahoe Ski Resort. The transit center is a 10 minute walk over on the other side of the Marriot .
I offer a spacious, genteel home with 3 bedrooms, and 2 baths that can sleep up to 10 (if you‘re good friends.) This is my HOME for Bagel, my beagle and myself. Hence, a fourth bedroom, my personal bedroom is locked off and not available. Of the 3 bedrooms- The Master Bedroom has both a lovely sleigh bed and a futon couch that converts into a double bed – great for parents with young children – and shares a full bath with the second bedroom. Right below, you’ll find the 3rd bedroom & 2nd full bath sensibly located on the first floor – an ideal convenience if you hate climbing stairs after skiing all day, like to sneak in late from the casinos without waking anyone – or for any guests who have limited mobility. The living room couch opens to a double-size sofa bed, and each bedroom has a TV. Off the entryway with its stained-glass panel and crystal chandelier, are the living room, and dining room. The elegant yet comfortable Great Room is graced by 20-foot ceilings and a gas fireplace that offers the cozy ambiance of a wood fireplace without the work and “spares the air.” Avid sports fans will love the wide-screen 55” flat screen TV as much as avid cooks will love the well-outfitted kitchen – centrally located to let the cooks cook and still join in the fun. Not only can you BBQ in the fully enclosed back yard, it is a great place to watch Fido play “frog dog” in the snow. The heated laundry room has a high efficiency washer and dryer. Outside key access is via a standard, secure lock box.

We have internet, wifi, cable, and ps3. Fire and CO alarms are on both floors. A basic first aid kit is kept in the downstairs bathroom. A fire extinguisher is located both in the laundry room and on a hall shelf on the second floor. There are 2 exterior cameras mounted on my home. One is focused on the front yard and driveway, and 1 in the back yard and focused on the yard. There is no audio. There are NO cameras or listening devices inside the house.

NOTE: ANY HOLIDAY WEEKS/WEEKENDS SPECIALS, OR WEEKLY RATE DOES NOT APPLY. HOLIDAY WEEKEND/ PERIODS A MINIMUM STAY (usually 3 days) IS REQUIRED. two day minimum required normally.

We accept friendly house-broken pets with a one time pet fee of $50 for each pet with additional $200 refundable security deposit. The back and side yards are fully enclosed to provide additional privacy for my guests and their dogs. Please notify me if your pet will also be a guest. Limit of 4 pets. Please no huge pets.
Also, the program does not provide for graduated cleaning fees so I am stating it now. For stays of 5 days or more, the cleaning fee will be $200. For New Year's and 4th of July due to the usual extra guests/ partying, cleaning fee will be an extra 20% ($210 total. ) My apologies but recently too many have spoiled it for everyone. I cannot afford to continue to absorb the extra cleaning costs.

Amazing location, wonderful house

We had a wonderful time staying at this whimsical house while we were skiing. We could walk to the gondola, even with ski boots and carrying equipment. The house was clean, everything worked and the beds were comfy.

Quick stay in Tahoe

We arrived at the house and it was as described and a little more once we saw all the Dr. Seuss artwork. I appreciate all the cooking supplies available and use of the pantry. The Garland cooktop was a joy to make breakfast. The trip was short but had all the comforts of home. And close to Heavenly as described.

Weekend at the Lake

We had a great time staying here. It was close to everything we were trying to get to, including a show at Harvey's. Plus they had a plethora of cookware, which was great for making a few meals while we stayed. The host was also quite flexible and let us add an extra day to the end of our stay, which we greatly appreciated.

Mediocre at best

Host did not provide information for check in or anything until day before then deleted it so I could not obtain wifi or other info, I tried multiple times to get ahold of her and she didn’t respond. Did not have any cleaning supplies. The house was falling apart and not well kept.

We recently stayed at Marcia's property for the weekend. She was so accommodating with us! We loved the home and how easy it was to find anything that was needed. The location couldn't have been more fitting to our groups needs for the weekend. I would definitely book this home again!

Great location + spacious pet-friendly house!

We were a large group of two families, children and pet and the house was large enough to easily accommodate all of us. Location was very convenient too and we could walk around the prime south lake tahoe area from the house without needing car. Owner was also very flexible in terms of check-in and check-out time which made our experience great. Overall the house was in a great shape and we enjoyed our stay. There were some areas of improvement but nothing major to hurt our experience: - Wifi didn't work for the entire time during our stay - Bathroom cleanliness was 8.5/10 but manageable. - Existing pet hairs were visible in many places in the property but we didn't mind as we had a pet ourselves. - Wrong code given during check-in (that was resolved quickly after communicating with owner)

Amazing location!

Awesome place to stay for a few days with our little family and a few family friends. Could not beat the location, and loved that the street was closed to through traffic which kept things quiet. Enclosed yard was great for the dog, and out little one to play around. It was on the warmer side during our stay so we appreciated the main room ceiling fan, and tower fans in each of the bedrooms as it was definitely warm while sleeping. Close walk to heavenly village, easy drive to the lake where we spent the day. Host was super easy to communicate with. We hope to book it again in the future!
