Proximity to the shores of Carnelian Bay and its dog-friendly public beach, perfect for water sports and leisurely strolls. \*Tahoe is a beautiful and fun place to visit, but occasionally this area can be affected by extreme weather events. While we never want things like icy roads, road closures, or smoke from wildfires to negatively impact our guests, it can happen. We ask travelers to plan their vacation appropriately for the rural mountain climate and encourage guests to research all travel insurance options, as Tahoe Truckee Vacation Properties cannot provide refunds for things outside of our control. OTHER THINGS TO NOTE: \-Please Note- The stairs going to the upper bedrooms are somewhat steep, and can sometimes be challenging for young children, or those with mobility challenges. \-This is an older cabin and sounds travel between all of the spaces fairly easily due to its A-frame nature. Guests walking on the stairs or in the upstairs rooms may prove to be audible to that downstairs. \-Important, this property does not have air conditioning. Air conditioners are extremely unusual in North Lake Tahoe. \-This is a dog-friendly house but in order to bring a dog, you must pay a $100 dog fee per dog, 2 dog maximum. If you bring a dog without paying the dog fee, you will be subject to a fine much greater than the pet fee. \-Additional Fees include cleaning fee, administration fee, and local Transient Occupancy Tax. Check-out time is 10 AM. \-SUMMER 2023 UPDATE: There is construction going on in nearby proximity to this house. Some noise and nuisance should be expected. Unfortunately, this is not something that we have any control of but local ordinances do limit the times of construction. (Placer county does not permit construction between the hours of 8pm-6am) and are typically not active on the weekends. BED CONFIGURATION: Downstairs Bedroom: King Upstairs Bedroom 1: King Upstairs Bedroom 2: One Full and Two Twins IMPORTANT: On March 11th, 2022, the county of Placer implemented a new Short Term Rental Ordinance which is very important for guests to abide by. Fines range from $1,500- 5,000 and can be issued to guests who are not in compliance. A full list of rules is attached as a photo in this listing. Some Highlights include: •Quiet hours are from 9 pm to 8 am. No noise shall be heard across property lines. No outdoor speakers or amplified sound are to be used at any time. •Dogs must be leashed at all times when outside of a property and all pet waste needs to be picked up. •Parking is limited to the following number of spaces: 2 POLICIES & DISCLOSURES: 1\. 2021 Update: Due to Extreme Fire Danger – The use of ANY outdoor firepit or fireplace is strictly prohibited at any of our rental properties. We appreciate your understanding and cooperation as we work to keep our community safe from wildfires. 2\. As part of our commitment to being good neighbors, occupancy limits and quiet hours (9 pm-8 am) are strictly enforced. No speakers or sound systems will be provided for use in our properties. Violation of any noise ordinances will be subject to fines that can reach up to $10,000 per violation. 3\. By local laws we have to charge a 12% occupancy tax (10% TOT tax + 2% TBID tax) with every booking. TBID is placed on lodging, retail, restaurant, and recreation businesses in North Lake Tahoe to raise money for visitor services, business support and advocacy, economic development, tourism mitigation, and transportation services.

We were only able to use the hot tub once because we were hardly there due to all the great swimming activities nearby. We had a great time! Would rent again! . ##### Maria P.
