When you’re ready to venture outside, keep everyone entertained in this perfect vacation setting. The Recreation Center / Lodge features a swimming pool, two outdoor hot tubs, locker room saunas, billiards, tennis and bocce courts, and a fitness trail. The complex backs up to Tahoe National Forest, offering miles of hiking, biking, cross-country skiing, and other activities year-round.

Your home away from home is in Carnelian Bay, where all North Lake Tahoe is right at your doorstep! Stroll down to Magic Carpet mini golf or check out Waterman’s Landing, located at Patton Landing Beach, a 3-acre, pebbly beach known for stand-up paddling.

To experience Lake Tahoe gambling and nightlife, Incline Village and Nevada's historic casino Crystal Bay are a short drive away, just across the state line.

Closer to home, you'll find superb dining options right in town like Gar Woods Grill and Pier for steaks and fish, the Old Post Office Coffee Shop for hearty breakfasts, and CB's Pizza for hand-tossed pies and beer.

You're only 10-12 miles from three great ski resorts—Northstar, Alpine Meadows, and Squaw Valley. Whether you prefer to downhill or cross-country ski, snowboard, snowshoe, or go sledding or ice skating, North Tahoe is the place for every winter activity.

At Squaw Valley, after conquering the slopes, go tubing with the kids or try out the mini snowmobiles at SnoVentures Activity Zone. There are dogsledding tours too!

Year-round, the Village at Squaw Valley offers dining, shopping, the Squaw Valley Aerial Tram, and a variety of activities.

In the summer, ride the Aerial Tram to High Camp then choose a scenic trail and walk or hike in one of the most breathtaking places in the world! At 8,200 feet elevation, admire the beauty of the Sierra Nevada Mountains with views of Lake Tahoe and Squaw Valley's legendary granite peaks. In the Aerial Tram building lobby, kids and grownups can have a blast climbing the variety of routes on the 30’ simulated Headwall Climbing Wall. If you dare, learn how to do a front or back somersault at Skyjump; all ages are welcome.

NOTE: Carnelian Woods Amenities: Hot Tubs are Typically open daily. Pool and Tennis open summer only. Amenity access never guaranteed. Please check website for availability: carnelianwoodsorg

    Overall a good rental but could use a bit of care.

    Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was very clean. I was very happy with the location. I was more than satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Great clubhouse for the kids to swim, ping-pong and all. The townhouse was nice, the living space was small and the small balcony had really no space or chair to sit and enjoy the beautiful scenery. It fit the bill as we were in town for a wedding. Lots of stairs not little kid friendly, but they did provide stair gates. Lots of spider webs we had to brushed off. Close enough to take a walk down to the lake, clubhouse and miniature golf. It was good for the price point.

    We were dissatisfied with many things in this house. My son developed serious congestion the first night. I was wondering if he was getting sick but he was fine when we came home. Another friend started having allergic sneezing on the last day. The house felt dusty and definitely needs a deep clean. The beds were not comfortable. Quite a few chipped cups. I didn't realize one was cracked until my tea started leaking all over the table. Temperature in the rooms were not consistent. Some were extremely cold and some were very warm, which made thermostat adjustments challenging. One toilet was not working. Kitchen was not stocked with basics such as sugar. I was under the impression that there was garage parking per the Info sheet emailed to us: "Parking – Parking availability is limited to spaces in the garage and/or driveway." So we were disappointed that we had to park so far away and up the hill in a parking lot. Staying here was not what we expected and wouldn't recommend.

    The check-in process was easy, and communication was good. We requested and helpfully received late checkout. The house was clean, but is on the older side (think: worn carpets/bathmats, frayed towels, older appliances). Phone service here is very poor, but the wifi worked.Our biggest issue was that the plumbing is very weak--the toilets had very weak flushes, and needed 2-3 flushes to get just toilet paper down. The upstairs bathroom toilet wasn't flushing upon arrival; the plumber who was sent snaked the toilets, retrieved a bar of soap that had been flushed down, but also said that the plumbing really needed updating. And even after his visit, the toilets still had the issue of very weak flushes requiring 2-3 flushes.

    Nice spacious rooms. I would add light in the hall.

    Extended family vacation with kids. The house is spread out and three floors so a lot of stairs. Our kids are 5-8 so actually loved the stairs and made the loft their play area! We also enjoyed the pool area and hot tub but it is a drive to get there. The walk to the lake and mini golf is 8-10 minute walk and we all loved walking to watch the sunset! Bring bug spray if you go in summer like us. We really enjoyed this property and it’s a corner unit so lovely views!

    We stayed for a week in mid-September and the condo was perfect. Probably our favorite perk was the wagon, we are easy to please. It was super helpful with 7 kids and a trip to the beach everyday. Plenty of space for our group of 11. The listed amenities were not available, the hot tubs only open on the weekend for a few hours and we specially picked the location for the pool and hot tubs for the kiddos.
