Chamberland Getaway | Lake Views w/ Deck!

We really appreciated and enjoyed the view from the living room and deck. Therefore, I am sorry to write such a negative review, but we have stayed in many places, both with economy rates and high-end rates, and have never experienced such an ill equipped accommodation. We first saw this house online, the price was half what we ended up paying for one week in July. We looked at the photos and realized that the furniture was old and shabby, but the price was reasonable and we were willing to overlook what we saw. When we booked a reservation for the second week of July, the price had doubled! We were unable to find another rental and decided to settle for this one and make do. However, we were not prepared for the fact that it is very poorly equipped house. There was not a single box of Kleenex (tissue) in the entire house. We have never stayed in any kind of accommodation that was not supplied with tissue! Luckily, we had a box in the car. The bathrooms had no washcloths or hand towels. We searched and finally found two washcloths tucked away in a cupboard. This house ostensibly seeks sleeps 6 people, so there should be at least 6 washcloths and hand towels. (When we were checking out at the end of the week, we loaded towels into the washer as directed by the instructions, and at that time we found the dryer full of towels.) Before listing the inadequacies, I want to start with two maintenance issues: 1) The lowest of the railroad tie steps leading up to the front door is badly out of place and needs to be reset. It is dangerous. 2) The toilet in the downstairs bathroom runs continuously unless adjusted after each flush. If we had not been conscientious enough to wait around and make sure that the toilet stopped, there would be a great waste of water. The upstairs toilet usually needs an extra flush. No soap for the showers. No shampoo, but there were two large bottles of conditioner in the downstairs bath! No plastic wrap for making lunches, no liquid dish soap in the dispenser at the sink. The old dishwasher pellets are hard as rocks. The refrigerator reeks of garlic and the baking soda for odor removal is very old. The beds are saggy and the ancient, decrepit pillows are a disgrace for any price rental. We are asking for a 50% refund and 50% of the applicable bed tax. Thank you for your attention.

The only 2 things I can say on a not so great note: 1. Water pressure sucks 2. The balcony rails on th0e lake side feel very unsteady. Other then that, we had an awesome vacation. The views foe the cabin are gorgeous.

Our overall experience was good. Loved the view from the deck. The cabin sleeps 6 but we could only find 4 towels. More linens would be great. Also there are some loose boards on the stair well. Otherwise the cabin served its purpose.

When it comes to this property, pictures truly do not do it justice. Not only was this home sparkling clean, the view was so incredible that we wanted to stay home and enjoy it all day! Not to mention we were walking distance to the shore. This stay was beyond what we expected and we will be returning soon!

Great spot for family fun. Loved Tahoe for it’s beautiful hikes and water options. West/California side beautifully rustic and residential while east side/Nevada much more commercial. So we very much enjoyed being in this area which meant very few restaurant options to get to in less than 25 minutes. Comfy beds with plenty of space. Kitchen well stocked, but maybe too much so, as there was a door-ful of used condiments of various ages, butters, dressings etc with a frozen meal and leftover liquors in the freezer- unusual compared to other VRBOs we’ve rented.. the clean was adequate. Some disjointed communication with the management company. Thank you Pat and Debbie for opening your home to us.!!

The house was not clean, the furniture was disgustingly dirty, all the food or what was listed as food items were all expired products, I have photos to prove. We tried using the private beach area and were told we could not, after we have showed them the key/membership. It took the management a day to respond on where the trash area was.
