Great house for a family stay. Lots of room for the whole family. Loved the view of the valley from the great room and back deck. The neighborhood is quiet and easily walkable. Would definitely stay there again.

Disappointing Dawn Retreat
Very unaccommodating management company; we received the property in poor conditions with spiders and spider webs all over the house, kitchen, bathrooms, bedrooms(beds), etc. No walk-through was completed before our stay, and no effort was made to rectify it during our stay. Neither we nor our friends can justify renting from Tahoe Getaways ever again due to our experience. I can provide additional detail if needed; just beware.
