This was a great stay for a large group. It is very spacious for a large group, although note that the downstairs bedroom is accessible only through the primary bedroom -- but it is downstairs accessed by a door, so there was still a lot of privacy. All of the spaces were very clean, and we appreciated all the cooking supplies. It is also a short walking distance from a small beach, which was great for my 3YO. It takes less than 10 minutes to leave the house and step onto a nearby public pier to swim and watch the water. Host was also super communicative! We had a small issue on arrival and it was sorted out right away, no wait time at all.

This is a very nice house, however, it would be very crowded with 6 people. Because there is no air conditioning, it would be too hot for anyone to sleep upstairs during hot spells. Also, the set-up of the main bedroom is a bit strange. Anyone sleeping in the basement has to come through the main bedroom unless they exit to the outdoors. Also, the photos make it look like the house is in the woods by itself, but it's in a fairly crowded neighborhood. It's a nice neighborhood and the best part is that's it's within walking distance to the beach. We really enjoyed our stay here. I was a bit apprehensive dealing with a property management company but they were extremely responsive for a couple of minor issues we had.

Wonderful cottage that is light and bright. Very clean and even better than described. The cottage has wonderful charm inside and out. Great location for what the West Shore of Lake Tahoe has to offer whether walking or driving. Short walk to the lake. I will definitely come back soon.
