Couldn’t have loved the place more. Spacious, well-appointed, and the fully fenced yard was a huge plus. We had a great time in this beautiful, cozy home, and we’re only 12 minutes away from the amenities of the y and downtown areas. Hosts were responsive, place was spotless, and we can’t wait to come back.

We had a great stay at the property on Pioneer Trail. There was plenty of room for everyone and the great room was perfect for all of us to hang out and play games. We definitely appreciated all the extras. The supplies for the dog, the games, fully equipped kitchen and the comfortable bedrooms and bathrooms. I would definitely recommend this home to anyone coming to Tahoe and we are also planning to stay here again.

This rental has become one of our favorites in the South Lake Tahoe area. Rooms and beds were clean and comfortable. Our kids had fun playing with the games provided and in the backyard snow.

Everything was perfect. House was so clean. Kitchen was well stocked. Felt like I was at home. Hot tub is as pictured. Was able to go for a walk through the gate in the back through the snow. So refreshing, quiet and peaceful surroundings. Very close to Heavenly. RnR checked up on us and was very responsive to our highchair need. Thank you for a wonderful stay. Be back soon!

House was comfortable & spacious & accommodating. All kitchen items needed were available. Hot tub water was clean. Parking was the only challenge, if you drive trucks. Anything longer than a 5' bed on truck won't go into garage. Our 5' bed only fit by backing in at an angle leaving 1/2" clearance at back bumper corners with 1" of space to close garage door. Parking a 2nd truck in garage is equally difficult. Otherwise we enjoyed our stay

Very nice layout with two decks and fenced in backyard. Nice to have master bedroom upstairs separate from other bedrooms downstairs. Advertised as 4 bedroom but is really 3 bedrooms. 4th room is a family room with bunkbed added and no closet. Awkward that you have to go through this 4th "bedroom" to get to the backyard and hot tub. We really liked that you could go through the backyard fence into the open space behind.

Neighbors were 30 feet away. One of them complained about our dogs barking for 5 minutes. One neighbor had building materials, personal property, car in yard, 2 cars parked in street which we were told was a code violation, and chickens that made noise. No grass in backyard. Carpet and rugs needed shampooed. Inadequate paper products. House was big and pretty nice with nice kitchen, appliances, televisions, bathrooms, and outdoor grill. Rug was tattered in main bathroom and my wife tripped over it. Close to Pioneer Trail. Beds were comfortable. Might consider some cooling system because it gets hot now and we had to leave from 2 pm to 6 pm. Lots of fans.

It's a lovely home and very comfortable for a family vacation. The garage is small and fine if you drive cars but if you have trucks or large SUV's it's a little difficult.
Overall we loved our vacation in this home and would definitely recommend to others!

Nice tree covered streets in local neighborhood. Some street traffic of locals going to work in morning, and there happened to be a house being built down the street. That can happen anywhere - so there was a little noise sometimes. Easy access via Pioneer Trail to destination locations. House was clean and well supplied. Other than the floor mats in entry and bathrooms, they use Free & Clear no fragrance detergent on the linens, which for me and my sister is super important so we don't get headaches from the toxic fragrance stuff other places use. Also, helps keep Tahoe air clean not spewing toxic dryer sheet stuff into the air. (requested no dryer sheets on linens) RnR was very responsive to our request. Nice open space area on main floor of house, but the deck was the best way to start the day! Birds chirpping away. (Was a little worried about airport traffic, but wasn't a problem at all). Good stay - all n all.

The house was amazing and bigger than pictures. The kitchen has every tool you would need to use if you are a chef or baker. My sons loved the scrabble game (age 27,29) years old. The jacuzzi was so relaxing and the entire house was so spacious, clean and every detail was perfect. They really have everything you can think of if you need something, including spices lol . My family definitely wants to come back to this place our favorite!

We absolutely loved this cabin! It was perfect for the five of us (5 adults) and our two little Shihpoos. Super clean and the description of all the amenities, location and layout were spot on. We were welcomed with a wonderful gift box full of yummy treats. At the entrance, they provided dog bowls, a feeding mat and potty bags which were perfect for our little girls. The yard large was a great area for our pups to romp around in. We enjoyed one of the puzzles they provided for us and wished we could have stayed longer to finish it! We were in Tahoe for a hockey tournament and it was an easy distance to the South Lake Tahoe Ice Rink and minutes away from grocery stores. We ventured out towards Emerald Bay for short hikes and stopped for a couple of scoops of ice cream at the Camp Richardson's Ice Cream Parlour, a must do when in the area. Maria's Mexican Restaurant and Sprouts Cafe are our favorite haunts while in SLT. It was a pleasurable experience and a lovely stay at this wonderful cabin. We would love to make this a yearly vacation spot!

House was comfortable and as advertised. However the house next door was unkept, trashy, and an eyesore. With all the rules, regulations, and threats of fines one would think there would be compliance throughout the neighborhood.
4.8
The house was very nice. The neighborhood was great! We enjoyed our stay. RNR was very responsive and responded to our request quickly.
The only part that could use improvement is the cleaning. We are charged a cleaning fee for cleanup of the rental after we leave so that this property is ready for the next family. We found an open beer bottle with beer in it in one of the rooms. It was knock down and spilled by on of guest. Also a crayon rolled under the cart by the stairs and when we went to retrieve it, there was old food underneath.

We had a group of 7 for a birthday celebration. This house was exactly as described. Clean and roomy. Nice kitchen facility. Everything worked. Nicely stocked with games and even asked for the kids. We were very happy with this rental and would use it again if we get to Lake Tahoe again.

Our experience at the house has always been great. This is our second year in a row renting this house. We love the layout and it’s close to town and the casinos. This year there was so much snow and we loved it. The snow was 4’ deep on the balcony and there’s was no place to sit, so my grandson helped me carve a couch and love seat for us to sit on during our stay.

This is a beautiful home located in a nice quiet neighborhood just off of Pioneer Trail. The house is very clean and stocked well with everything you will need for your stay. The ice maker was not working at the time of our stay, but the rental property was nice and offered to drop a bag of ice off to us. Hopefully they have that small detail fixed by now. Other than that we didn't have any issues and really enjoyed our stay in this beautiful home. Please note that the house does not have A/C so it can get a bit warm during the summer months, especially in the upstairs portion of the house. (we were there in August) They do have ceiling fans and other small fans in the house to help. We just opened the windows and sliding door in the morning and tried to cool it down before it got too warm. Coffee out on the deck in the morning is priceless... :)

Beautiful well kept home
This is our second time staying in this home. Both times I have been impressed with its cleanliness and attention to detail. I loved that they provided a gift basket of wine and snacks upon our arrival and even had a basket with pet necessities for our dog! USB outlet chargers were a plus too. Though we didn’t bring ours, I liked that they had an EV charger for electric vehicles and I liked that the garage was available to use for parking. We will definitely stay here again.

This home was PERFECT for a week-long family vacation with 7 adults. We relaxed in the hot tub, bird-watched in the backyard, cooked in the well-equipped kitchen, played board games, made puzzles, and watched movies on the giant living room TV (we felt like we were in a movie theater!). The home was immaculately clean and magnificently appointed with everything we could need. The layout was perfect for spending time together, but having privacy, too. Everyone I spoke with at RnR Vacation Rentals was super helpful and friendly. I'm convinced this is the BEST little company in the world! We will definitely book with them again.

Visited here for a family ski trip. We spent several days at Heavenly and made the 35-40 min drive to Kirkwood several times as well. We loved our stay - we had 3 couples staying with one toddler and two infants, and the setup was just perfect for what we needed. The backyard was great - the toddler loved the swing and walking around on the deep snow drifts. The parking lot for the California Lodge is less than 10 minutes away, groceries (Raleys) are less than 10 minutes away, and getting into SLT was also super easy. The Hot Tub was hot, and the house was spick-and-span clean before we got there. I'd be hard pressed to think of even just one thing I would change ... I'd definitely stay here again!

This place was perfect for our small family getaway. The house was absolutely spotless, and had ample amounts of extra clean linen. The hot tub was so nice, and the back yard was perfect for summer or winter snow. This is the house if you don’t want to leave throughout the stay. One small complaint was the two very small couches for the large living room and weren’t too comfy. Other than that, it was perfect! We would love to come back.
