Charming rustic cabin, with a few issues
Note: This review is specific to a winter trip.This is a charming rustic cabin in a Tahoma neighborhood. Great central west shore location with very easy access to Homewood, Palisades, and Tahoe City. Cozy and romantic for a couple, and ample room for 4 people. Would not recommend more than that in winter, as described below.Emphasizing RUSTIC, because in winter time this cabin has some limitations.First, we were really drawn to the listing's feature of a wood burning fireplace. Which worked great, BUT they do not provide firewood. There was no mention of this in the listing or pre-arrival instructions, so we were caught unprepared and couldnt use the fireplace on the first night. Total bummer, especially considering it was sub-20F(-6C). Second, there is only one wall heater, and no way to control the temp. It does an adequate job of heating the first floor, but not so great on the second floor, where two of the three bedrooms are. The bedroom with the two single beds is in a room with a full wall of windows, so it was VERY cold. ie, would not recommend using this as a bedroom in the winter if it's really cold. To accommodate for this, they provide space heaters in every room, but the electric in the house is really old. We blew a fuse on the first night, which caused the internet to go down.To their credit, property manager sent someone next day. He also couldnt figure out temp control on the wall heater, but electric was sorted.Otherwise, nice place.
