About this apartment rental
A comfortable two-bedroom condo in the Carnelian Woods community — walking distance to Lake Tahoe and an easy drive to both Palisades Tahoe and Northstar. Great setup for families or a small group.
What's included:
Walk to Lake Tahoe
Community pool, hot tub, sauna & tennis courts
Arcade / clubhouse on site
Ski lockers & gear storage
In-unit washer & dryer
Pack 'n Play + booster seat
Beach towels + Smart TVs throughout
Pet friendly
Sleeping setup:
Queen bed in bedroom 1
Queen bed in bedroom 2
Queen sofa bed in the living area
Rollaway bed available (stored in the upstairs bedroom closet — rolls right out into the main loft area, which makes a great little sleep nook or hangout space for kids)
Pack 'n Play for little ones
Full kitchen stocked for real cooking — not just the basics. In-unit washer and dryer, beach towels, multiple Smart TVs, and fast WiFi throughout. The complex is quiet and family-friendly, with the pool, hot tub, sauna, tennis courts, and arcade lodge all steps away.
About the loft: The main loft is a great hangout space and works perfectly as a sleeping area with the rollaway. The upstairs bedroom has a second loft space — the ladder has been removed and we ask that guests not attempt to access it. We really mean this one. It's not safe without the ladder and any wall damage will be charged to the booking.
A few things to know: Small water heater — if you're a group, space out your showers. No AC (Tahoe summers rarely need it). The closest beach to Carnelian Woods is a pebble beach — not sandy, but genuinely lovely. BYO rackets for the tennis courts.
Winter heads up: Tahoe weather moves fast — 4WD/AWD or chains are often required during storms. Please plan accordingly.

This place was great for our young family. Dog beach nearby is perfect for pet lovers. Trail in the backyard and pool amenities were great!

The good:Host was great at communication and responded quickly whenever needed and was always helpful.The location is great, walking distance to a little coffee shop kayak rental place, breakfast place, and a dog friendly pretty rocky beach. Good location that is very close to the lake.The lodge is nice with a nice pool and fun games.The bad: We had a bad smell in the kitchen, took the garbage out and it wasn't that, then discovered a dead mouse in a cabinet. Realized the bathroom had what looks like is a mouse trap too.I realize we are in the mountains but we have a family cabin in Utah too, have stayed other places in Tahoe, and Idaho, Montana, etc. And never had a mouse problem. Maybe rather than traps and exterminator may need to routinely come? The host apologized and had the cleaning service come remove the mouse the next day but it freaked me out because I hate mice, especially where we are preparing food and knowing it was decomposing in a kitchen cabinet while we were there grossed me out.
