Totally excellent home- immaculate & fresh -
Nice peak of the lake from upstairs & deck!!
10.0 / 10.0
Property was well kept and in a nice neighborhood. Even though the lake was at full capacity with not much beachfront, we still had access and made use of the lake. It was beautiful and the home is only a short walk from the beach.

My family and I had a wonderful stay. The house was spacious, impeccably clean, and very comfortably fit 5 adults, 1 toddler and 2 babies. The neighborhood was a perfect location. The owner was very responsive and helpful. We would absolutely stay again!

Felt like home, we could all fit at the table for meals & games. The filtered view of the lake and bird song in the morning were spectacular! The vaulted wood panel ceilings were incredible and the kitchen, bedroom restroom situations were more than adequate. The management was perfect and we would definitely recommend this amazing home. We wish we knew and were disappointed the lake was too full for our fam to access the private beach. Also, the grandkids didn’t like the feathers poking out of the couch. Great family vacation!

We had an amazing time at Lake Tahoe. This house was the perfect home base as it is situated near everything including an amazing private beach a short 2-3min walk down the road. Seriously, the lake is visible from the drive way and is only a short downhill walk. There was more than enough space for 4 adults. The house was incredibly clean, quiet, and cozy. Well stocked kitchen and spacious rooms. The view from the dinning room/patio deck was a wonderful surprise. Judi was extremely responsive, friendly, and helpful when it came to house questions. I can not say enough good things about the overall experience and home. 10/10!

Very beautiful and spacious home. Short drive to the grocery store and casino area. Easy walk to a private beach area that is very nice. Comfy beds and a nice little deck to sit out on. The fireplace in the front room is also very nice. Owner is very attentive and responsive. Would highly recommend.

We had a wonderful stay at this perfect house. It is exactly as described, well equipped and comfortable, with a beautiful view of the lake through the trees. It's a short walk to a beautiful sandy beach and there's easy access to restaurants and hiking nearby. The owner checked in to make sure we had everything we needed and communication throughout the process was seamless. We will be back!

This Marla Bay home is a gem - it is nice & liveable... There is ample living space, & the deck off the dining room is delightful. Lots of amenities included in the home & it's only a 5 minute walk from Lake Tahoe & the private (accessible to guests) beach. Rooms are spacious, beds are comfortable. We would definitely want to come back to this beautiful spot.

10.0 / 10.0
Absolutely loved this place. The pictiures don't do it justice as it seemed even better in person. It was so easy to reserve and all the instructions were well thought out and simple. The location was perfect - close enough to get everywhere and quiet & peaceful enough to chill. The kitchen is fully equipped with everything you need. The private beach was a definite plus as we saw other beaches that were way too crowded. Neighbors are friendly and we had no issues or concerns while we stayed. Host was very responsive when I asked about trash day (I just wanted to make sure I got the instructions correct). I would definitely book here again when we make it back to Tahoe!

We were in town for a family wedding at Genoa Golf course: Loved the house and location with a short walk to the beach. The house was very clean with a beautiful view of the lake from the upstairs deck to enjoy our morning coffee or an evening glass of wine. We had plenty of room for our group of 6 adults and 2 children. The kitchen was well equipped. It was nice to have a large dining room table and living area that was comfortable for the whole family. . Judi was wonderful from the initial reservation and made sure we had everything we needed once we arrived.

This property was exactly as advertised. We visited during late Spring (after the snow) and it was the perfect location for us. We immediately felt "at home" in this spacious, well appointed and meticulously clean home. Marla Bay is lovely for strolls and feels secluded with its private beach access. The owner promptly answered our questions and even arranged for a late check-out which we immensely appreciated. Will definitely book again should we find ourselves visiting Tahoe in the future.
10.0 / 10.0
We very much enjoyed our stay in this Marla Bay home. One thing to know is bring everything you will need to cook with you, including coffee, oil, salt and pepper. Otherwise the kitchen has everything you need to make great meals. The beach is absolutely lovely!

A very accurately listed property on VRBO. Well-maintained and very clean. There are more "house rules" than the usual stay, but the property is better for it. Located on the lake and convenient to the town of South Lake Tahoe.

Loved this house. It was very comfortable, clean, cozy and a great location!
It would be helpful to have a bench inside the front door to put on and take off shoes.

This was by far the cleanest rental I have ever stayed in. It made us feel so comfortable during our stay. The kitchen is very well stocked and made cooking for our large group very easy. The host, Judith, was great with communication and checking in on us. Enjoyed nice lake views from the deck. Private beach down the street was great! Water is shallow, so it was perfect for kids. The only thing that would have been nice to have would be fans in each of the rooms. With some smoky days from the fires and not being able to open windows for air flow it did get hot in the house. This would not have been an issue though had the air been clear enough to keep the windows open. I would recommend this home to anyone and will be back for sure!

My family and I stayed here (a group of 6) for a week. The house in very conveniently located in the Marla Bay community with a private community beach that never got overly busy and the bay was perfect for kids. The house itself was equipped with everything we needed. Would definitely stay here again!

We had a great stay at this property. 3 min walk to the private beach and beautiful lake view from the balcony of the residence. Would definitely recommend and will stay here again. The neighborhood is very friendly. Judith was easy to reach and checked in on us mid stay to ensure we had no needs. Great place!

The neighborhood is a jewel. Neighbors are friendly and quiet, house is situated that you can see the lake. Downstairs bedrooms are cooler for those of you that can't deal with heat in the summer. 2 block walk downhill to the private beach. Host and manager most accommodating. Across the highway is a good place to eat as well, Blue Tavern, great fish tacos!

This house has to be the cleanest house around lake Tahoe. We've stayed in many vrbo homes and this is by far the best. The house is layed out well, and the owner has thought of everything. Anytime we needed something we looked and found it. The location is great, just a short drive to safeway, restraunts, casinos, and shopping. The owner is great, very responsive to questions and we really felt they cared about us enjoying our stay. I highly recommed this property.

The location of the property was amazing. Right near all the beautiful scenic views. we were able to walk down to the lake and enjoy a nice quiet sunrise and sunset! 100% recommend the place.

We (family of 4 with 2 boys) had a wonderful time. We have stayed at VRBOs for over a decade in multiple countries and all over the US and I can say with absolute certainty this is the cleanest and most well maintained house we've ever stayed at. The devil is in the details and even things like the blinds were in great shape and did not have a speck of dust on them. Also, the house had everything you could need. And the owner was really nice and contacted us several times to see if we needed anything.Location was also great. We skiied at Heavenly, and both the CA and NV side were less than 15 min away. You can walk down to the beach in 3-5 min, which was really nice one afternoon.All in all, a great week!

We loved our stay at this house. Wonderful location, and VERY clean. Judi was quick to respond to any questions. We lucked out with beautiful warm weather in October and utilized the access to the private beach. We’d definitely return.

We chose this house because it had enough room for everyone. It had a good view of lake Tahoe and was quiet. Judi was a great host and communicated well. The only problem we had was A/C wasn't working great. It wouldn't go below 73. Which is probably fine for most people. We would stay here again.

This beautiful home has it all! Comfort, space, amenities, and cleanliness! Everything is provided. All you need to do is pack your suitcase. The huge top floor master suite is something special with its oversized jetted tub, separate, shower, dual sinks, walk in closets, (all 4 bedrooms have walk in closets), and comfortable king bed. The spaciousness of the home accommodates many for dining or just relaxing in the open comfortable living room. The owners are friendly and accommodating. This is a real find; don't let it get away!
