Tahoe getaway

The property is nice - away from traffic and in a beautiful location. Kitchen could have been updated - all cooking supplies are old and dirty. No serving utensils. One trip to the dollar store would be good and throw away all of the old stuff that can't be cleaned! Also, have your cleaning staff throw away all old spices, etc. We found something expired in 2009!

Nice little house

It was a good experience loved hanging out in the deck. House was nothing fancy but very clean. Just a tip Tahoe city is 10 minutes away for food and grocery store. We also saw a couple bears on our first day but we maintained our distance and we were fine.

Very disappointed. Pictures did not show how old this cabin was.

Mouse droppings in kitchen drawer, had the wrong key to the dock gate. Recieved a new key in the 3rd day of our stay we only stayed 4 days. All Towels in the down stairs bathroom smelled durty. Dishwasher didn’t work the maintenance people had to come out and fix it. Received a very unprofessionally email regarding using the dock.

Less than fair

House smelled due to ashes not cleaned out of fireplace from previous guests. Both bathroom floors were covered in black hair from people or dog from previous guests. Two beds upstairs had black hair on the sheets from previous guests. House got extremely warm and made sleeping upstairs unbearable. Would have been nice to have something to remove pine needles which covered entire deck and chairs but we managed with that. We will not be staying here again nor recommending this to friends due to house being dirty inside. Very unhappy especially since it was not cheap to rent it.

Relaxing spot with lots of room!

My family thoroughly enjoyed our time at Hillhouse. It was very clean and had plenty of room for the 6 of us. We walked to the beach once, but drove as well. We spent lots of time relaxing on the deck. I can’t wait to go back!

Roomy cabin in the woods

We were only here two nights and there were only four of us, but the cabin can accommodate many more comfortably (beds for 10!). The rooms are sunny and welcoming. The kitchen is well-stocked--but bring your own coffee! If you plan to use the fireplace, bring your own wood. The outside deck is huge--we wish we could have stayed longer to take advantage of relaxing there.
