Cozy house so close to the river you can hear it. Excellent management made us feel welcome and solved problems immediately.
6 / 10Average·Jul 2025
The location for this cabin is amazing! It’s steps away from the river and is close driving distance to almost anything you’d want. Knowing this, we were so excited for our Tahoe weekend only to find that some of the cooking amenities didn’t work as advertised and they have a small pest issue. Obviously, we understand that staying in a cabin in the woods can come with some additional woodland creatures, but we didn’t expect to encounter an oven with a strong rodent smell and waking up to mouse droppings on the beds. Also, during our weekend the grill had propane but would not light. We were unable to reach the management company over the weekend, but they were responsive after our stay over email.
