We loved the cabin, but VRBO's app for reviewing has many problems (this is my 3rd attempt to upload our review).
When we arrived, the cabin was ready as expected. We went through the cabin and wiped down all door handles, etc., since COVID is deadly (we are all vaccinated, except 5 year old). The beds were all comfortable, but the room arrangement for the second bathroom was very odd (shows how multiple changes have been made to the cabin over the decades), having to go through the queen bedroom, then the twin bedroom, to get to the second bathroom. Other than that odd arrangement, we loved the cabin. The kitchen was large enough for easy food prep, there were more than enough pots, pans, and food storage containers. The refrigerator, though not large, was more than adequate for the cabin size. It worked very well and contained all the food we brought for 5 people. The deck outside was large enough for a couple of zero gravity loungers to be spread out to look for satellites and meteorites at night. We couldn't use the fireplace, due to high fire danger, but were lucky to have the air clear the day we arrived, remaining clear, until the day after we left when smoke from the southern Sierra fires blew back into the Tahoe basin. The beach, only a 5 minute walk, was nearly deserted, but wonderful for our grandson to play on. It was surprising that the lake water was warm, but this is also the latest in the year we have stayed at Tahoe in ages. The only problem we had was when we had our EV plugged in to an outside outlet for a slow level 1 charge. It worked fine, until we had to turn on the heater, used kitchen appliances, and had the TV on for our grandson to watch PBS...we threw the breaker. We found the circuit breaker panel and reset the breaker, waiting to reconnect the EV charger until we weren't using so many other electric appliances (a minor problem).
We will definitely consider this cabin for future stays. We loved it!
