We had a lovely stay at this Carnelian Bay townhome. The kitchen was fully stocked with spices, oils and cooking utensils. The location was easy to navigate to and from to the various ski resorts around. The only thing that was not accurate on the listing was the hot tub is only open on the weekends. This was a major bummer for us since every ski trip we like to go in the hot tub after we ski yet it was closed Monday - Thursday and the recreational center employee said it was because it was too expensive to operate. Besides that we had a great stay.

My condo rental was a good experience. First Accommodations was very responsive on my E-mails. First night I was awakened by a bear going through the areas trash bin and in the morning after a long 10 hour drive the day before to get to Lake Tahoe I was also awakened by the next unit having their carpet cleaned at 8:00AM in the morning so other than that the condo was in a very quiet area of the complex. It was very easy to get to Tahoe City or Kings Beach. Condo had all the items needed in the kitchen for cooking and the bed was comfortable. The condo was a bit dated with the furniture, appliances and design.

The property/area was quiet, yet the house was quite noisy at night. Not sure if it was the settling of the home or ? Lots of creaking and pops. At one point we all were woken up by a loud bang sound, but could find nothing. The recreation area was about 1/2 mile down the road. Other homes we rented in the past have had a game cabinet which was helpful when traveling from another state. This home did not supply any games. This home had basic supplies. This home is listed for sale so not sure if this was a factor.

We spent two nights for our anniversary getaway in June 2023 at this cute little condo unit. The location is perfect -- within three minutes drive of the lake and restaurants. The Carnelian Woods campus also has a lodge, hot tubs, pool, tennis courts, hiking trails, and other great amenities, but we didn't use them.
The unit was well-furnished, with everything we could want from a VRBO rental. The kitchen had all the utensils, dining ware, and appliances we needed, an electric stove, a full-sized fridge with ice cubes already made. There's a TV in each bedroom and in the living room. They are small TVs, and the one in the living room is in an awkward upper corner, but you don't go to Tahoe to sit and watch TV all day, do you?
The hosts were very responsive and answered questions quickly via email. They even provided tips about dealing with local wildlife (bears!).
A variety of excellent restaurants were within 5-10 minutes drive. We went to Gar Wood twice and had great steaks and desserts there, with walking on the pier and along the lakeshore afterward. Tahoe City was only about 15 minutes away and had even more to choose from.
This would be a great choice for anyone looking to get away to a quiet spot by the lake.

A friend and I traveled to Tahoe to "unplug" and regroup. The location was beautiful - set up in the woods and very quiet, close to grocery stores, restaurants, shops, and rentals for canoes/kayaks. Our biggest complaint was that the site stated the pool/hot tub was open from Memorial weekend through Labor Day weekend. When we arrived (the week after Memorial), we were informed that the pool and hot tub would not be open for another month. I wish someone or the site would have notified us of the delayed opening.

A well appointed condo with a beautiful view of Bear Scratch above Tahoe's East Shore on Herlan Peak. While most of the condo is nicely maintained, the mattress in the upstairs bedroom is a marshmallow and c/should be replaced. Also, it's a bit annoying that the hot tub in the clubhouse is CLOSED on Sunday and Monday!

This was exactly what we were looking for for a group of 4. Good space, clean and a good location for us heading to Palisades and Tahoe city frequently.
Communication was particularly excellent and check in process was super easy.

The place was nice and cozy. We arrived late at night and literally unpacked and slept.
The next morning we realized that the water temperature in the shower was low. I reported that to Trent. He had a plumber there the same afternoon. The problem could not be fixed and so Trent moved us to another condo in the same complex.
We have stayed at Carnelian Woods several times in the past and have not had the need to interact much with the property manager/owner. Trent was prompt in his responses and took care of the situation very well.

Great place for 2-4 adults or 1 family. This place has all the basic items you may need. Clean and very comfortable. Located in a very quiet area of Tahoe just outside of Kings Beach. Definitely booking again for another trip.

The condo is nicely located nearby to all amenities and recreational opportunities needed to spend an extended time. It has an inspiringly lovely view of the Bear Scratch. The condo is well appointed.
However there are two major problems. First, there are 'critters' (probably racoons) living in the walls, and one can hear them rummaging around and scratching-especially in the 1st fl bedroom. The noise was loud enough to wake us up, even in the 2nd fl bedroom! Second, although there are 3 TVs w/cable, try as I might, I simply could not get the cable to work in the living room, nor the 1st floor bedroom. Moreover, I also could not get either remote to allow me to switch inputs to the Roku device I brought. An "instruction" or trouble-shooting guide would be most helpful. Not being able to watch the Olympics was super disappointing.

Loved the location, loved the property and adored the home. Was perfect for our family of 4. Had everything we needed for preparing meals and storing leftovers. The pullout in the new couch would be handy but we never needed it. The cozy loft above the master was a nice surprise. The weather was warm the week we stayed, so AC would have been a nice option but wasn't absolutely necessary. I bought a fan to use and left it for future renters. The forest fire smoke/haze did block the view of the lake but we expected that. Hopefully they are contained soon. We'd love to see Tahoe in the winter so we may be back. Thanks to the owners for renting!

The condo was well-equipped, and clean with good lighting. The furniture was in good shape and comfortable. The view of the mountains on the eastern shore of Tahoe was a highlight. The internet was strong and easy to use. The only complaint was with the amount and quality of the linens. The towels provided were literally falling apart. Also the number provided was absurdly low as was the number of pillowcases. The disconnect between the condition between the high quality condo itself vs. the poor quality linens provided was stark

The location was great. The place was clean. Kitchen well stocked with pots and pans etc - theres's a little reading nook loft my kids liked. Our main complaint was that the heater was super loud and woke us up a lot in the night but it was too cold to leave off entirely.
