Middle point for everything... The townhouse was very clean and everything went according to plan. Multiple living areas and well stocked. I state that’s it’s in the middle of everything as every city east or west is a short drive away. Close walk to Lake Tahoe. Saturday night parking was a squeeze.

Great time Condo was lovely but the sofa bed in loft needs to be fixed. It was held together with duct tape and looked like a previous tenant had jumped on it. The staff at rec center were not very helpful. Change machine was broken all holiday weekend and they did not want to buy change from my son. Makes it hard to play pool and other games without quarters. Loved pool. Aside from uncomfortable sofabed, a good time was had by all.

Review of week stay in #52 at carnelian woods Overall stay was pleasant. On the Sunday we arrived we let the office know of several issues---and never heard back on any of them. Very poor service. The upstairs bathroom exhaust fan is hanging off the ceiling. The upstairs pull out bed mattress is a mess, held in place by metal cables. The second bedroom mattress is in very poor condition. The hot and cold hoses to the washing machine are switched so doesn't function properly. The barbecue grill is on its last legs. Would have been good for some admin follow up during our stay to talk about these issues.

Wonderful three weeks! The condo fit the needs for the family and we had a wonderful time. The place was clean, well organized, and the new kitchen was a joy. The amnesties were attractive, well-kept and we especially enjoyed the pool. The location of mid-way between Kings Beach and Tahoe City allowed us to enjoy a variety of activities, dining options, and wonderful scenery. We plan to do this again next year.

Nice but dated I think this would be a better Winter than Summer rental. It's in a good location, although a bit further from the lake than we were expecting. The downstairs area (living, kitchen and & bedroom) is very dark. Whilst this would be OK in Winter, it was a bit depressing in Summer. We didn't spend much time in the house as a result. The kitchen is new and is great- very well stocked. But overall the furnishings and bathrooms were tired and dated. The King bed mattress downstairs is extremely spongy and needs to be replaced. It gave both my husband and I such sore backs that we spent the last night in a hotel instead. Probably wouldn't recommend a stay here unless you don't need to use the downstairs bedroom. The others both had more light and more comfortable beds.

Ideal place winter or summer This was a terrific place, we will definitely return to this unit! Perfect location It's a short walk to the lake, the view from the place is of trees (not other homes), and it is easy to get to Squaw, Alpine, North Star and Truckee. Very spacious & awesome kitchen The place was larger than I expected and the kitchen should be featured in the photos! The kitchen is brand new - all LG and Bosch appliances and new cookware. It made cooking on vacation so enjoyable. The fireplace is also a heater and dried out all our wet snow clothes easily - key for happy skiers!! Parking was easy. Clean but lumpy The only downside is that while the place is very clean, some of the furniture is not going to survive long. The dining table is wobbly and the couch is dips a lot in the center. The beds were fine, the pull out couch was terrible, we had to move the mattress to the floor in the loft. Responsive host Trent was a very attentive host. He responded promptly to my comments and let us know ahead that there was a repairman coming, it was all very unobtrusive. All in all, this was a great place to stay! Thank you for making our family trip so easy.

Love this place!!! We stayed here last year and again this year and we'd like very much to make it a yearly tradition. I love everything about the place. I only have one small complaint. The loft used to have a set of twin beds and they were replaced by a pull out couch, a love seat, and an ottoman that becomes a very small bed. When you pull out the couch it is not only uncomfortable but it also bumps right up to the ladder leading to the top loft which just doesn't make sense. The love seat is totally in the way and as I said the ottoman is tiny. We had to play a fun game of tetris with the furniture to make room for everyone to sleep and one of my friends slept on the floor because the couch was so uncomfortable. I really wish they'd just kept the twin beds, they were MUCH more space officiant and comfortable. If they can get them back that would be really great. You really don't need couches in the loft anyway because everyone gathers downstairs in the living room. That's my suggestion, other then that I LOOOVE LOVE LOVE this place and we WILL be back! I've also recommended it to several clients (I'm a hairstylist). -Naomi H

Comfortable, clean and great location. The condo was very comfortable and clean. It looks a little larger in the photo than it actually is. We had lots of room for 4 guests and I can see the place easily handling 2-3 more. The only drawback is that the parking lot is higher than condo entrance. You need to go down a moderately steep path to get to the front door. This becomes a bit of a problem when the path is icy.

Great value in north Tahoe Due to the heavy snowstorm when we drove up, it was a little hard to find this group of condos. The numbers were either covered with snow or not visible from the street. The parking lot was also somewhat small, but that could have been due to the snow. The condo was a great value. It was cozy, the heaters kept the place very warm, although there was a significant difference in temperature in the loft compared to the room on the first floor. The beds were pretty comfortable, and the living room had all the amenities you'd want. Kitchen was a little small and one stove burner did not work properly. There were ample silverware and dishes. Location of the condo was not particularly close to anything. There's a 7-eleven close by, but everything else is about a 5-10 minute drive. Gas fireplace. Overall, I would recommend these condos.

Upstairs shower we fixed so that H2O would come out of shower head.There was no extra towels for more than 5 people.Lightbulbs are burnt out and need replacing.Location is beautiful and recreation facilities are great grounds people very friendly.

The house rules, however, clearly stated that it was not OK for house guests to make loud noises until after 9 am?????? Other than that it was great!

Due to the heavy snowstorm when we drove up, it was a little hard to find this group of condos. The numbers were either covered with snow or not visible from the street. The parking lot was also somewhat small, but that could have been due to the snow. The condo was a great value. It was cozy, the heaters kept the place very warm, although there was a significant difference in temperature in the loft compared to the room on the first floor. The beds were pretty comfortable, and the living room had all the amenities you'd want. Kitchen was a little small and one stove burner did not work properly. There were ample silverware and dishes. Location of the condo was not particularly close to anything. There's a 7-eleven close by, but everything else is about a 5-10 minute drive. Gas fireplace. Overall, I would recommend these condos.

The Recreation Center in our complex was very unappealing--smelly.

The townhouse was pleasant. Decent floor plan, well equipped, clean, quiet, and in good shape, overall. The unit needs a few repairs (loose breakfast bar, loose light fixture in lower bathroom, wobbly dining room table), but we enjoyed our stay and would certainly return.

Right from the time I booked the home till we vacated the place everything was very smooth and organised. It was a hassle free experience.

Condo itself is a bit dated, but overall to be expected. Kitchen was full of everything needed for the weekend, and there were TONS of games for the family! We had a great time here. Fold out beds were extremely uncomfortable, but beds were fine. Recreational area/tennis/spa/pool were great for the family.

Just enjoyed a great week in Tahoe at the Carnelian Bay Condos. The pool was a wonderful place for the whole family. The location is convenient to two of our favorite spots, the mini golf and Garwood's restaurant. I recommend it for families for sure!

The condo was very comfortable and clean. It looks a little larger in the photo than it actually is. We had lots of room for 4 guests and I can see the place easily handling 2-3 more. The only drawback is that the parking lot is higher than condo entrance. You need to go down a moderately steep path to get to the front door. This becomes a bit of a problem when the path is icy.

We rented 2 units and both 21 and 52 need updating. Actually, 52 was in better condition and the carpet was cleaner but both units need a facelift.

just wanted to thank you again for making our trip a very nice one. Everyone really enjoyed staying at this cabin (52) it really reminded us of our old one in many many ways. there is so much detail in the place, for example the games and all the extra things that were in the cupboards. Very nice again. And I really appreciated the fact that when we had a problem or concern, it was addressed the very next day, which is a BIG PLUS. we can't wait to do it again. so thanks again, take care

Our stay was overrall a good experience. Clean, helpful staff, however, not necessarily child-proof (large gap-railed stairways and most beds upstairs). Not much privacy for two of the twin size beds, but a nice place to stay, cute deck, close parking, and a nice large pool area.

We stayed here last year and again this year and we'd like very much to make it a yearly tradition. I love everything about the place. I only have one small complaint. The loft used to have a set of twin beds and they were replaced by a pull out couch, a love seat, and an ottoman that becomes a very small bed. When you pull out the couch it is not only uncomfortable but it also bumps right up to the ladder leading to the top loft which just doesn't make sense. The love seat is totally in the way and as I said the ottoman is tiny. We had to play a fun game of tetris with the furniture to make room for everyone to sleep and one of my friends slept on the floor because the couch was so uncomfortable. I really wish they'd just kept the twin beds, they were MUCH more space officiant and comfortable. If they can get them back that would be really great. You really don't need couches in the loft anyway because everyone gathers downstairs in the living room. That's my suggestion, other then that I LOOOVE LO

We loved it! It was the perfect location and the facilities were just what we needed. The staff was great and very helpful(especially Chris). The pool and hot tubs were super clean. The kids had a blast on the tennis courts. We would definitely stay at Carnelian Bay again.

Web Directories - Our Competitors

A lot of your time is wasted filling out forms and waiting for replies from multiple vacation rental owners. Many busy owners never reply.
The price shown always changes, you have to calculate it yourself and often changes once you communicate with the owner.
Most owners do not take the time to provide complete information on listings, so you waste time having to ask questions and wait for responses.
In a nutshell, "Web Directories" are cumbersome and time consuming, and if you have a problem, you are on your own.
