The cabin is ideally situated backing up to the golf course with beautiful Ponderosa pines all around. While not within walking distance of any beaches, a short 5-7 minute drive will get you to the Lake, to the Safeway and numerous yummy restaurants. The neighborhood is great for walking. It should be noted that this is a TWO story unit—we did not see that mentioned in the listing and may have opted for another location if we had known that. There are bedrooms and bathrooms on both floors, however the stairway is very narrow and spiraled, which could present an issue for guests with mobility issues. Also, many of the windows don't open so it's impossible to get a cross breeze and enjoy the cool mountain air, particularly in the evenings. On warm/hot days, the cabin gets very stuffy and warm. Fans in the bedrooms are helpful, but just serve to move the warm air around rather than cool it. While plenty of electrical outlets are available throughout the property, many are loose and I didn't feel confident when plugging in my devices. The back yard is not fenced (very common in this area), however the deck is secure for guests with dogs. The kitchen is stocked with ample utensils, almost to the point where there is too much. A dish drying rack would be helpful for hand-washed dishes in between running the dishwasher. Napkins would be a nice addition; there were plenty of paper towels, toilet tissue and soap.

House was nice but needed to be maintained better. Missing or not working light bulbs, rear door frame looks like someone broke in needed to place bed in front of to secure. Closets overloaded with blankets and sheets. TV controls not understandable and poor instructions. Windows in rooms do not open, so not able to escape if fire. Minimal parking neighbor said we could be ticketed unless we move 2nd vehicle. Very tight spiral staircase to lower rooms, no hand rails or sufficient lightings. Sink faucets in lower bath we not attached properly to sink and would spin while attempting to use. Place just needed a little attention and maintenance.

Beautiful home. Excellent location. Loved the deck, the hot tub etc. The home is very cozy and a perfect set up for families.

Great home and beautiful location right on golf course. Kitchen fully equipped with everything you could need. Close to Kings Beach but not walkable. Safeway close enough to walk. Great backyard for kids to play. Would rent again. Host very good communication.

Debbie is an amazing host! We were planning a ski weekend with a group of friends, but were discouraged when we saw that a blizzard was predicted during our stay. Debbie was so responsive and understanding as we tried to figure out if it would be safe to go. My partner and I work remotely so we were able to come up the day before the storm and Debbie let us stay an additional night for a discount. The storm also lasted a day longer than predicted and the roads were closed, so Debbie let us stay yet another night at the last minute! She was so nice and understanding as our plans kept changing with the weather. I have never had such a kind and communicative host. Beyond this, the house was so nice and cozy, we were able to have a fire every night and enjoyed the hot tub a couple of times while we were there. While our friends were not able to join due to the storm, there is tons of space to accommodate 8 people comfortably. While our weekend was not what we were expecting, we had an amazing time and hope to come back in the summer! Thank you so much Debbie!

The cabin was cozy, convenient, and felt like home. However, dog fur on a bed's bedding (that we stripped for washing as instructed) resulted in an additional cleaning fee? Disappointed a house would be "dog friendly" and something as trivial as that would result in an additional cleaning fee on top of a hefty cleaning fee AND a pet fee. Pet owners, I'd look else where.

We had a great stay in Kings Beach. The house was exactly as advertised and previous reviews also accurate. About 15 minutes to Northstar for some snow time, but easy access to the lake and Safeway just a 5 minute drive (walk is totally possible). The cabin was clean and had lots of beds! We were there with our 2 kids (age 9 and 6). To note, parents slept on the first floor - bunk beds and room with two full beds were downstairs. Our kids were fine with it, but it might be uncomfortable on two levels with other families. The hot tub was great after skiing. Kitchen was stocked with practically everything you would need - even a travel coffee mug! Loved the house and location - already looking forward to a return trip!

Overall it was great. Good neighborhood, convenient. Home was supplied w everything needed. Just to be be clear, each level has two bedrooms w shared baths. There isn’t an en-suite master bedroom. Overall great stay!
