Amazing location on the Upper Truckee River
This was a wonderful location. The house can definitely use some upgrades, but for the price and location, it's going to be hard to beat!

Summer stay!
We really enjoyed our stay at the perfect little cabin! It was 10-15 from town, had plenty of space for all of us, and had everything we needed to make meals and head to the beach! I saw many reviews about their outside needing work, but it looks like it was already is progress with renovations!

Very outdated but nice setting
Chipped counters, old bathrooms and uncomfortable seating. Beautiful River out behind cabin. Only two nasty folding chairs. Deck was dangerous. Nails and rotten boards. No paper towels. Washing machine had a broken knob. Zero response when we reached out to listed contact. Had to sign multiple contracts and

Thank you for your comments. We are very sorry that everything was not perfect during your stay. The owner of the home will purchase and replace the exterior deck furniture and is having the deck repaired this summer. The washing machine know has been ordered and will be repaired as well. Best wishes and warmest regards from everyone at LoveRentals & Property Management Team.

Family friendly cabin getaway
What a great find. This cabin was pretty secluded, no neighbors on either side & a gorgeous creek behind it. No better place for my outdoorsy 8 & 11 year old boys. Lots of room for us 4. Great kitchen set up to cook our own meals. ( although needed another kitchen towel & needed a m kitchen cloth) kids enjoyed upstairs loft. Had a TV upstairs & down. Washer dryer convenient, but needed to dry clothes 2x, because dryer not great. Over all a beautiful spot away from tourists, but 10 min away from town. Loved our visit for 6 days.

Place was nice
When you first drive up to the place it is a little disappointing. The front is in need some TLC. The deck is not in good shape. However, the inside is nice. Everything worked well. The neighborhood is quiet. We enjoyed our stay.

Overall a nice experience. The river running by was a peaceful surprise. Plenty of room, Quiet neighborhood. Downside. Need handrails on first set of steps. Very unsafe, especially for seniors. Deck is in dire need of repair/replacement. Bad big black ant problem. It got very warm in the house and no air conditioning made it uncomfortable at times. Fans didn't help that much.

Your feedback is very valued and I have passed it along to the property manager. They said the owner is looking into replacing the deck surface and railings and will schedule an exterminator service right away.

Cozy getaway minutes from South Lake Tahoe
My group stayed at the Tahoe Paradise unit for a weekend ski/snowboard trip in February 2022. The unit was spacious, cozy, warm, and comfortable for our group, and was conveniently located for the commute to Kirkwood as well as Heavenly. The cabin was well stocked with kitchen equipment, and we were able to host multiple group meals in the warmth of the home. The location overall was convenient for our travels to both Kirkwood and Heavenly directions, and easy to locate right off the highway. I would recommend checking in with the property managers if there was significant snowfall prior to check-in; our group did run into some delays settling in due to the driveway not being shoveled, so we had to wait for assistance (which came promptly!).

Country Cabin
Had a most restful stay at this beautiful cabin. Loved the decor and the beds were very comfortable. There was plenty of room for my entire family to spread out. The Upper Truckee River running behind the property was especially nice. Went to sleep to the sound of a babbling brook.

It was fun
The experience was great. The only thing was there were a lot of spiders inside the house. Didn’t sleep good after two crawled on me in the middle of the night.

Hi Robert, Thank you for the review. It was a pleasure having you as our guest. We hope to have you stay with us again next time you are in the area. Sorry to hear about the spiders. They are typical for the area but we do have pest control come every quarter to ensure this doesn't happen. Lorelei

Great location
The location was great, away from the hustle and bustle of the main strip. Also if you venture in front of the cabin you will find creek which was so peaceful especially in the morning. The downside was part of the deck felt like it was going to break anytime soon.

Beautiful location, needs updating
This was an interesting experience, here's the good, the bad and the ugly. First of all the good, the location was great! This place was far enough out of town that we didn't have to deal with all of the crowds downtown. The neighborhood was beautiful and we very much enjoyed the forested surroundings. It was also close enough to town that heading in for supplies or fun activities was a short trip. We stayed here with our family of 6 and we were very comfortable, there was plenty of space. The kitchen and living room area provided plenty of space and we were comfortable. Now the bad, it appears that the owners may be updating slowly. This means that there are some updated things, but quite a few broken things as well. The screens were ripped, furniture was wobbly, the porch seemed like it would disintegrate beneath our feet, etc. Everything ended up fine, but I would suggest the owners repairing a few more broken items. The ugly is just that the decor is a big outdated. But really, I could tell that from the pictures and it didn't really bother us as the location and size of space was most important to us.
