This is an amazing property with incredible views of Lake Tahoe and heavenly Valley. Hiking trails within walking distance amazing amenities on the property and very close to all the fun of tractions of Southlake Tahoe. This was our 24th annual family retreat and it has to be one of the best ever, so thankful to John and Susan for the amazing property and hospitality!

Fantastic property with great view located near Heavenly resort. Made for a great ski trip!!

We really enjoyed our visit to Tahoe and our stay at the “Get Lucky”. It’s a beautiful home, very comfy for our party of 8. And you just can’t beat the view. It is amazing!! John is a great host and very responsive.
We skied 3 different resorts while we were here, Kirkwood was the best, and only a scenic 1 hour drive from the house. The house is high on a hill, you reallly do need 4WD in the winter, we had no problem.

Great property close to heavenly with great views. Tons of room and very comfortable. Great kitchen for cooking and gathering. Was able to do snowmobiling, snowshoeing, skiing, hiking, gambling and more all with ease. Great time.

We fell in love with this place immediately upon seeing the photos. It was out of my original budget, but as it was a special occasion, I decided to splurge. It was so worth it! Our days at Get Lucky will be a family memory we will never forget.
Communication with the owner was outstanding, the best I have ever experienced.

4.9
We brought a group of 14 (six adults, 8 kids ranging from 6-15). The house was amazing, and absolutely as advertised. All interactions with the owners (specifically, Susan) were highly professional.
There are clear expectations laid out for renters, and all quality renters should have no problem abiding by the rules. (E.g., don't move the 800 pound kitchen table to a new location.) These rules have been broken by previous guests, and understandably the owners keep a close eye on the condition of the property. Renters would be wise to document upon arrival any unusual findings, such as a broken pool cue used as a dowel to keep the windows bear-proof that we found. We later had to plead our innocence as to the broken cue.
Also, we stayed in and cooked for our large group more nights than not. We ordered pizzas as well. Under these circumstances the garbage and recycling can pile up. We fit as much garbage as possible in the bear-proof outdoor containers, and overfilled the recycling bins. I suspect this was the main reason behind the cleaning staff informing the owners we left the place dirty, but again a very professional interaction with the owners resolved all issues.
The location, view, and overall comfort of the home are spectacular. I hope to be lucky enough to return someday.

GOT LUCKY finding 'Get Lucky''!
WOW!! This house exceeds all expectations and pictures on the website. We wanted a beautiful house with a great view in a spectacular location for my daughter's small wedding and it checked off everything...including things we didn't even know we'd want. The kitchen is gorgeous, the views are dreamy, and the space fit our combined two families of 10 perfectly. We had my daughter's wedding dinner for 20 there and it was beautiful.. The indoor and outdoor kitchens provide everything you'd ever want. Bumper pool, fire pits, and the hot tub were big hits too. Susan was a great communicator and the check-in process was easy. I'm acutally kinda going through withdrawal being back in Michigan....and it's only been less than a day! LOL. BOOK IT! You won't be disappointed!

Perfect Location with a Breathtaking View!
John and Susan's house was perfect for our family. It's spacious, clean, and has the most beautiful view of the mountains and lake. It's also close to the restaurants, casinos, and grocery stores. We enjoyed watching the sunset on the balcony every night. The kitchen is fully stocked with everything you need to cook a gourmet meal. This house definitely exceeded our expectations and we will be back! Thank you John and Susan for welcoming my family to your home!

Lake Tahoe great views
The Get Lucky house overlooking Lake Tahoe was perfect for our family vacation. We sat of the deck and watched the sunset every evening. Fire pits on the deck made the chilly morning coffee and late sunset viewing warm and inviting. The kitchen was great for cooking large family meals. Close to great hiking trails and other activities in South Lake Tahoe. The house is beautiful and I would recommend it to anyone.

Great House, Irrational Owners
This beautiful house would be a treat to stay in, if it wasn't for dealing with the owners. The house is surrounded by security cameras, which the owners monitor religiously. We consistently received angry texts, calls, and voicemails criticizing us for normal things: For having more guys than girls (they literally counted), bringing ski boots into the laundry room to dry overnight, and having a third car in the driveway (even though there are signs saying we can have 4 cars). The first night we told the owner over the phone that one of our cars was out getting groceries, to which she snapped: "I already saw you walk in with frozen pizzas, what do you need groceries for?!" The owners have their own set of rules which aren't written down on the listing or the lease that renters sign, which makes the experience like walking on eggshells. If you don't mind living in a police-state where you're watched all the time, including a camera pointed at the hot tub (creepy), this house is for you. As an alternative, if you don't mind rude, overbearing owners, just cover the cameras or turn off the WiFi and enjoy your expensive vacation. The house is truly magnificent.
To give a little more color surrounding our group's etiquette, the house manager, Ezra, sent a glowing review of us to the owners via text on the last day and we received our security deposit back in full. The owner's demeanor did a 180 after that text but unfortunately our group was already upset by their treatment.
Cue angry owner response:

Stunning views!
We rented "Get Lucky" for 3 nights during our small wedding celebration at Valhalla. The accommodations were perfect for our family group, with lots of space to spread out yet still be together. Having en suite bathrooms was really nice. The kitchen and other amenities are top notch. Great views, nice bedding, and the hot tub was relaxing too!
It was really nice to have a large garage to park in and extra parking spaces for family.

Fantastic Place!
Great Views, Great House, Great Weather (mid 70's day, mid 40's night)!
This place had everything...Gourmet Kitchen with all the tools, Outdoor Kitchen with fire bowls, massive decks, Spa, XL Garage, etc.etc.
We will be back!

Incredible house, views and location
Our family simply loved this house and all it had to offer. The owners were very helpful and attentive and made us feel so welcome in their home. The house easily accommodates a group and and the decks give even more room for people to roam. The views are spectacular any direction you look. Instructions and information for the house were very well detailed and the owner and property manager were very helpful and easy to reach. We'll be back!
