Great location, just a few miles from Tahoe City. The owner is great - super responsive and helpful. The place is lovely, the patio with hot tub is the star, along with the living room - amazing reclining couches, great TV/system with dish network and premium channels. We spent most of our time on the patio and enjoying the living room setup. Note that while it's listed the owner lives next door (he was out of town during our stay, but rented it out to friends), there is also an apartment downstairs that has full-time renters. While we didn't run into them on our stay, I could hear the baby crying at night and they were doing construction/drilling until almost 9pm on Saturday night, so I was a little disappointed to not have a truly quiet and relaxing experience. Note that during the summer, the house can get quite hot, so opening windows and keeping blinds shut during the day was key to a cool night's sleep.
