Have stayed at this property multiple times and this time it was dirty (cobwebs, dust etc), the shower was backed up, the kitchen supplies are missing, steps are broken. It’s a beautiful location but it’s not being maintained. Beautiful week at a beautiful location but the house was disappointing especially for the price.
1.0 / 5.0
We stayed here from 12/31/23 for 6 nights. This house was not at all up to expectations or worth the price. The main issue is that the house was not cleaned before arrival (management company admitted this to us). It was not just NOT cleaned from the last guest but it had not been deep cleaned in a very long time. There were cobwebs and spiders throughout the house. Dust was everywhere and was very hard on everyone's allergies. The day to day cleaning left hairs in the bathrooms, the sheets were stained and we found some damp and left in a corner. Some of the quilts had burn holes in them. Many lighst didn't work throughout the house including the fridge and pantry and there is no light near the bathtub in the bathroom so you can't bathe at night.

We had a fantastic time and enjoyed the glorious property, the house was in perfect condition.
It would’ve been nice to know that the Westshore café was under renovation as was Obexers. .
We will definitely be back
Thank you for sharing your beautiful home. Epb
4.0 / 5.0
Beautiful property. Property management not great. I asked twice before arrival if there is a bbq, they said no, but lo and behold there is one. There were no beach towel’s available which is odd. Bear warning would be good too as one visited the complex multiple nights entering unlocked doors.
Would stay again with these things in mind, great place. Property managers seem like their company too big and don’t have great details on properties.

The management company, Grand Welcome, was very difficult to respond to and ignored some communications.

This rental did not disappoint! A little hard to find with 8ft of snow on the ground, but thankful for GPS. A path was cleared for the sidewalk so it was easy to haul our luggage from the shared garage to the house. The house was mostly clean with some dust and cobwebs here and there. Beds were comfy but the house could use some new pillows. It’s also perfectly located across the street from Homewood Resort for any folks interested in skiing or snowboarding.

Property location is great for the activities we had in mind. Management was very responsive to minor issues we had and were quickly resolved. We would recommend this property to friends and would most likely return again.

First family vacation with 7 month old
This rental did not disappoint, we spent a week at this lakefront house and the view was spectacular. We traveled with our 7 month old baby and brought a play pack for him to sleep in, I was surprised to see that this rental had a play pack available in one of the bedrooms. That's a big plus for traveling families. Loved the location and how close we were to Tahoe City. We will definitely come back again! What great memories!

Great place to get away from work and Great place to relax!!
We really appreciate this place and the beauty of the lake right out the back yard. Only suggestion is the cleaning could be much better!! But overall everything else was great looking forward to coming again!!!

Fantastic Location
I don't believe you could find a more beautiful, peaceful location ON THE LAKE! (this is October) The house is beautiful and well equipped. Only suggestion, I would prefer a little nicer bed linens, and blankets. The 2 "master suites" have a queen bed. the king bed shares a bathroom with the pullout. upstairs master has a steam shower, very cool.

Amazing Stay
I just spent 6 days with my parents, sister, aunt, uncle, and cousin. It is right on the lake. It is a little oasis. The location on the West side of the lake is great. The house itself is roomy, cozy, clean, and as advertised. I recommend it highly.

Cabin on the water
Loved the location and layout of this cabin. Waking up to a beautiful sunrise and the views of Lake Tahoe was the perfect way to start a day. The only minor things that we felt could be improved on was the housekeeping of the property- saw multiple areas of spider webs and some dusty window sills. Also, the bed pillows (were old, stained and lacked fluff) needed to be replaced. The kitchen didn’t seemed very well stocked nor did the bathrooms. Having a bottle of shower body wash and some shampoo isn’t asking too much, is it? Kleenex was also on short supply. If the property management can fix those minor little issues I would definitely give this property a 5 star rating. We loved our visit and would book this cabin again for future visits.

Beautiful property, great location!
We had a fantastic week! The house was perfect for our needs. There are essentially 3 master bedrooms, so it was well suited for three couples. Unfortunately, we were there during one of the smokiest weeks, so we were a little less active than we would normally be. With that said, my only complaint would be that the Wi-fi and TV cable were unsatisfactory. We could not watch movies and the bedrooms had only 3 broken up channels. Normally not a big deal because we would be out by the lake, but since the smoke was so bad we were indoors more than usual. Overall, we had a wonderful week, all things considering.

Tahoe lake front
House is perfect. Plenty of room outside and with shared pier it was great for the kids to jump and swim off of.

5th year to Lake Tahoe, Best trip yet! Awesome family Vacation
Great Family trip , the property was well equipped, unfortunately on out last night the smoke alarm went off at 3:10 and forced my grand kids to sleep in the car ( I didn't sleep!) it took the emergency contact awhile to get back to FD and they weren't happy about that. I was told Id be contacted by customer service and as of now , I have not been contacted. I realize things happen and this would not change my mind to rent again. Overall- great vacation!

Get a new cleaning crew
This was our third straight heat to stay in this property. We choose it because of the views.
This year I was so shocked to find the house as dirty and filthy as it was. The windows were so dirty that you couldn’t even see out of a few of them. Cobwebs were everywhere in the rafters and over the main picture window. Two of the bathrooms had the toilet roll holder pulled out of the Sheetrock. The bed linens in the master bed had definitely NOT been changed. My only guess is that the previous tenant made their bed prior to leaving. The bottom rack of the dishwasher is missing wheels and therefore it never stays on track. There was only one laundry detergent pod which I thought a little odd.
Anyway, all of these are truly minor things that could have been and should have been addressed long before our arrival. Maybe the cleaning crew needs to be trained and have a checklist. I hope the windows will eventually get cleaned.

Perfect location!!
This place was perfect in terms of location, grass, beach, lake and dock! If I had to nitpick these are the items you should bring to make your stay more comfortable; kitchen and bath hand towels, a dust pan (no vacuum either), kitchen spray cleaner and a small blue tooth speaker to play music. The property manager was responsive and kind- they went out of their way to drop off a new coffee maker after informing them that the pot was missing. We will rent again!!

Beautiful home and location, but there are other houses in the development.
This is a beautiful house right on the lake. The only thing is that there are other houses in this lakeside development, and when we arrived there were no less than 15 small children playing all around the front of the house. Just important to know, in case that is the situation when you arrive. The family did leave the next day and it was very peaceful and beautiful

Perfect location but poorly managed house
The house was great overall - however vrbo/homeaway lacked on the service side. We were only given 4 towels, n kitchen towels, no dish soap, not proper trash bags for the provided trash compactor. Had we known this we would have brought our own. The guest service number just rings and rings. We had to wait 20 mins to get through to someone. We requested an additional cleaning mid way through the week which never happened. Will not rent this house again even though we loved the location and the house.

Beautiful location with awesome views!
Lovely home but it could use a super cleaning, such as cobwebs, windows, etc. Also, the dishwasher was not cleaning the dishes very well. We had to put it through twice, and some still came out dirty. Also, had a situation where the shower door was tweaked by someone previous to our stay and when we called it in someone did come out that day to take a look but couldn’t fix it. He said he would have them follow up with me, however no one did. So I would recommend better follow-up.

Rooms with a View
The location was right on the water with impressive sunrise and sunset views. The accommodations were spacious and well appointed.
However, TP, paper towels, dish soap, etc. were in short supply.

Very Nice House and Location
We rented this home for three days with two other couples. Great location in Homewood and oh so close to the lake. There was plenty of room in the house for all of us. We cooked in two nights and ate at a very nice restaurant one night right next door. No complaints and we would rent this property again. Thank you!!!

Beautiful property! We’ll be back!
Our second visit to this amazing home! During ski season you can literally walk across the street and catch a chairlift in less than 5 minutes. The house itself is immaculate and has one of the best views on the lake. We’ll be back!

Great location
The house is wonderful and the location is great. However, there was not enough paper products or towels in the house. Plus, the coffee maker did not work. Family Thanksgiving was a success.

Place was great! Very comfortable and well appointed. Beds were very comfortable! We were here for wedding at West Shore Cafe, where we had access to paddle boards and water toys. If you came on your own however , might miss having beach chairs and paddle boards - but we are a very water oriented family. Everything is very new - and very clean

We have rented Homewood luxury lakefront homes for 15 years. We are familiar with luxury rentals & mgmt. company support.
Our family of 8 adults rented Lakefront Serenity for 10 days. Home was in new condition & in a lovely lakefront location.
However:
• Home only had Weber tabletop camping grill. As this wouldn’t support our cooking needs, we bought a 40 lb. bag of charcoal & large stand-up $99.99 Weber grill
• Kitchen had single-serve Keurig coffee maker; no inserts. We consume several pots of coffee daily, so we bought a Mr. Coffee for $39
• Kitchen had only one wine glass! Bought plastic cups for drinking wine
• No kitchen dishrags or Kleenex & only 2 paper towels rolls in home. Bought case of paper towels & case of Kleenex for $25.00
• Kitchen not equipped with adequate cooking utensils, serving platters, or BBQ tongs/metal spatula
Emailed Mgmt Company, rentLEVER, seeking supplies. Manager brought two rolls of paper towels and toilet tissue. Shortly, rentLEVER emailed there would be no further “upgrades” during our stay.
Also:
• Hot water circulation system off
• WIFI inadequate, with no or very weak signal; intermittent signal upstairs and on nearby lawn
• Freezer produced no ice, at max setting. Bought 3 20 lb. bags
• Microwave worked but made loud laboring noise
• Downstairs windows did not open/close properly. Had to remove the screens and physically push them out to open
• No vacuum cleaner found
• Iron, but no board
• Just enough indoor bath towels but no others
• Sprinklers went on 2x/day for long periods, making puddles
• 4 outside chairs were solid; rest flimsy. 1 flimsy one broke, collapsing me flat to the ground
• Owner-occupants of neighboring villa to south walked through the gated fence to our front yard 2x/day to let 2 dogs out. While we were cooking outside, dogs defecated on lawn within a few feet. My wife stepped in dog-doo! Twice, they came to our kitchen patio and through the screen asked if we were owners & how much we had paid for rent
• After that couple left, large wedding party checked into their unit & played loud music outdoors from noon to late
• While Homewood Shores neighborhood is a private/gated, non-residents trekked from West Lake Blvd (Hwy. 89) to access & use the beach & private pier
rentLEVER, the management company, perhaps guided by the owner or perhaps not, was largely unwilling to provide basic & inexpensive supplies.
We will not consider Lakefront Serenity in the future.
5.0 / 5.0
This place is absolutely beautiful. Location, location, location - combined with a stellar property! You just can't beat being right on the water. And the home itself is very tasteful and highly upgraded. We especially loved the kitchen. If you're an aspiring chef, you will love the gas stove and butcher block counter that looks out to the lake and living areas. Amazing.
But we were a little surprised that some of the finishing touches weren't really there. Toilet paper, for example. There were only 2-3 rolls in the whole house? And no paper towels? Not to mention, insufficient bedding and bath towels? And to add insult to injury - no wine glasses? What?
I hate being a whiner and that's why I'm still giving this 5 stars instead of 4. It was clean and gorgeous. But when you get a high-end place like this, I don't expect to be surprised when basic paper goods, etc, are nowhere to be seen. I hope they will rectify that, b/c we would most definitely like to visit again!
