INFO:
Always carry chains when heading to Tahoe in the winter, check road conditions with www.dot.ca.gov. It has been rare for us but sometimes weather can get so bad that both 4WD and snow chains are required. Weather can be checked via the National Weather Service www.weather.gov.
We can’t offer refunds or discounts for road or weather conditions, or internet/wifi/power outages/smoke from fires There is no cable/satellite but there is a chromecast, local channels and Netflix.
Our place was purchased because we wanted a place for our toddler daughter to actually have a yard to play in and experience the outdoors unlike our small apartment in the city. It is the only home we own so please take care of it so that our family, friends, and guests can enjoy it for years to come. It is a rustic 1940s summer cabin with updates.
Please contact us immediately if there is an emergency or damage. If there is anything missing or item you think we should get please let us know. Our place is a work in progress.
I hope that you will enjoy your time in Tahoe as much as we do. Have a great time and enjoy your stay!

Pull left into the driveway and the house is at the end of the driveway. Watch your step when getting out of car. It can be VERY ICY in the winter! Lockbox with the key is on side door knob of the house.
There is a heater on your left when you open the front door. Feel free to use the wood on the porch for the fireplace.
