Tahoe National Forest, Dog-Friendly, Game Room, Large Deck

The house was perfect for a getaway with friends and a baby. They had everything we could have wanted for the weekend, even the baking powder that I forgot to pack. They were very responsive - when we found that the grill propane was empty, they responded quickly to let us know where they kept the spares so we could cook as planned. The house looked just like the pictures and they really thought of all the small details that make a stay great. You can tell that they personally use the place because it had everything you could want and more. I was particularly impressed by how many towels and linens they provided - spare sheets for every bed and it seemed like 2-3 towels per person as opposed to the traditional 1 per person.We’ll definitely come back here if we’re looking for a mountain getaway in the future!

Perfect Getaway!

What an amazing place! We’ve stayed at our fair share of Airbnbs and this one was by far the best. Well-stocked, beautifully decorated, conveniently located, user friendly…the list goes on and on. Truly a gem of a place. And Krista is a wonderful host.

Amazing Place!

Really nice place. Stacked with everything you need away from home and then some. We all felt very welcomed here!

Really Nice!

This is the most well stocked Airbnb I have ever stayed in. They really went above and beyond to make you feel like you are at home. The kitchen, in particular, is so very ready for use. A spice rack that rivals mine at home. Location is great, as well. Right off the highway, with the road noise being the only downside. Overall, I would definitely return.

Well Stocked!

Krista’s place was absolutely wonderful. Clean, cozy, and adorable. The perfect cabin escape for you and friends! I would absolutely stay again. Thanks Krista!

Absolutely wonderful!
