Marcus’s place is so nice and cozy for our family and friends. We stayed for a whole month and would even want to stay longer if we could!!

Wish I would have read the negative reviews first. The owners live next door. Not advertised. We came for a celebration, peace, fun & privacy. Got none of that. Just stress & uneasiness. The creeper next door was either in the yard of the property we were leasing everyday with his barking dog, antagonizing my dogs, or he was staring at my wife & I every time we either left or came back if he wasn’t staring at the house while we were inside. The first night we arrived, I got a text from the owner “hoping that we made it fine,” but really wanted to tell us that our dogs were barking & to say that they “hope the neighbors don’t mind.” My response, “If you’re standing outside the house they are probably hearing you right now & that’s why they are barking.” I also mentioned that we stepped out for a minute & were heading back. The owner text back, “I took my dog out- (your dogs) probably heard her. Just giving a heads up- neighbors may or may not be as understanding.” My dogs were not barking after returning. Besides the creeper next door with the barking dog, the neighbors also had barking dogs & off leashes in the street. Apparently it is one of those, “it’s okay for us, but not for you” situations. Actually my dogs did not bark for the rest of the trip. I should have been more concerned when booking this reservation as the owner, Marcus, --although I stated that I have great reviews on VRBO & A-I-R B&B with my dogs -- said that he has been burned once before with dog owners & hinted at astronomically increasing the pet fee. Each day the guy next door kept walking his dog off the leash in front of the house staring at the house & us. I almost hit his dog in the street while off the leash while driving (guy was in the driveway next door). As I was backing up the truck, he would not stop staring. I got out & stared back. All he mumbled was, “How’s it going?” I did a little digging & discovered that the owner/owners live next door & also own an art shop by Heavenly. The creeper next door is Marcus, the owner. There were 2 reviews regarding this issue. The owner’s response was “Each year we invite 30 to 50 families stay in our home, they never felt that way” & “Most of our guest like the owner to be in a close proximity.” No they don’t. & this is 1 more guest who feels THAT way. It doesn’t matter if there are 50 or 1,000 guests; you have made 1 guest feel that way & now another & it was a problem before & continues to be one. We left one day early.

The house was spotless when we arrived. Kitchen well stocked, plenty of towels in the bathrooms. The trees in the backyard are gorgeous. Lots of stores right down the road so you don't have to fight with traffic in South Lake Tahoe. We were pleasantly surprised to figure out we could walk to Fallen Leaf Lake. We had to run out and get ice cleats but it was so worth it. Having the hot tub was a bonus after a four mile walk (2 miles out and back from lake). Neighborhood is very quiet. Lots of people out walking their dogs. It was nice having the primary bedroom on the second floor all on its own, very quiet. Even though the short term rental permit is up in April, we will definitely consider coming back for a longer stay.

Perfect accommodations for our family. The house was well appointed with all the necessary items for our week long stay. Close to downtown as well as several ski resorts.

Our family enjoyed staying here very much. A very nice well-organized house, convenient location - close to stores, ski slopes not too far, forest trail starts almost literally at the front door. Very helpful owners/management. Highly recommend.

This sweet place was very clean and comfortable. I loved that shampoo, conditioner, and shower gel were provided in all the bathrooms. There was a well-stocked kitchen of dishes, glasses, and basics for cooking like spices and condiments. The hot tub was sweet, and the backyard was perfect for our dogs. I would definitely stay here again and recommend it for people wanting to stay in Tahoe.

Loved the house, clean place, and great location! The outdoors was awesome and peaceful. We liked that grocery stores are close by. The owner was very nice and helpful.

Not one single thing to complain about.. will defiantly be back

Good location to the woods to take a walk and let your furry friends explore. Close to groceries restaurants and for summer visits really close to camp Richardson.

Very present experience really enjoyed the stay

Solid location with easy driving access to S. Lake Tahoe and neighborhood grocery store. Great backyard & hot tub. Easy communication with the host.

The home was nice. We had a party of 6, 5 adults one child. Spaces kitchen. Heating works very well.

This property was great for our family of 5 (children ages 16 mos, 4 year and 6 year). The property includes a pack n play which we used. This would also have accommodated another family of four to stay with us. It was very clean. Beautiful quiet neighborhood. Marcus was very helpful. We would most definitely stay again.

Very quiet and peaceful neighborhood and lovely cabin!

On our check in day, we came exactly at our check in time. We had to wait about 12 minutes to get in the house, because housekeeper was still there and finishing up (owner did notified about that probably prior to our arrival, but reception wasn't good in that area; so we received it right in front of the house and that wasn't an issue for us). As we walked in the house there was very very strong bleach smell ( I totally understand it's due to covid-19, but there are other disinfectant options). It can be an issue if person is expecting, which was our case, and if a person has any respiratory conditions like asthma, which was our case as well. So the smell only started to go away on the day that we decided to leave. Again, it can be fine for some people, buy very unexpected situation if people has health conditions, so be aware of that. Kitchen was stocked perfect, and there was everything needed. We did see a mouse run through the kitchen one night, so maybe it's time for some pest control. House was definitely clean, beds were clean, overall it's a great place to enjoy a family time together!!!!

We really enjoyed our stay at this location. The house was very clean, had plenty of room & the owners took every step to make sure all it was like a home away from home. The home is located in a quiet neighborhood & it was nice to relax after a day out exploring. The owner was very thorough in leaving directions for everything in the home & check in/out was a breeze. We would definitely rent here again if we’re in the area again.

This place was great for a friends getaway! It was clean, had plenty of comfortable beds, and a convenient location. I have stayed in quite a few rentals in Tahoe and this is definitely one of the better ones.

Quiet neighborhood, surrounded by beautiful nature. Home was well maintained and correspondence with owners were top notch. My family and I would love to stay at this property again.
