Welcome to Bella Vista where all of your Tahoe dreams will come true! This massive 6 bedroom, 3 story home sleeps up to 11 of your closest family and friends and boasts 5.5 bathrooms. This owner is very intentional in making updates to ensure his home is comfortable for both his family and yours. We aren’t entirely sure why this home does not have all 5 stars. It certainly deserves 5 stars so please don’t let this hinder your decision to book this awesome home and message us if you have any questions! 🙂

**FEE BREAK DOWN**
1. Cleaning fee: Includes your damage waiver policy so the total you see is not what we pay the cleaners.
2. Service fee: This is not a Grand Welcome fee. This is a fee this booking platform charges you.
3. Taxes: County mandated “Transient Occupancy Tax” must be charged to all guests.

**REVIEWS**
“If you can’t say anything nice, don’t say anything at all.” We please ask that you have some grace and compassion when you review this owner’s home and we will do the same when we review you. #spreadlovenothate

**COUNTY RENTAL LAWS**
(Pertains to all homes in Tahoe)
1. Strictly no hot tub use after 10pm - only if acciplacable
2. 10pm - 8am is the county quiet time for all rentals.
3. Trash goes into the bear box and is not to be left outside.
4. We cannot host extra people at this home or allow parties.

**TRAVEL INSURANCE**
We highly recommend that all of our lovely guests purchase travel insurance as we normally do not refund for Covid, smoke, fires, weather, snow storms, road closures, etc. 

**WINTER TRAVEL ADVISORY**
After the historic Winter of 2023, we do not recommend coming to Tahoe unless you have 4WD with snow tires, tire chains and experience driving in the snow. Tahoe roads are icy! Power outages are also very common.

**LATE CHECK OUT**
Please let us know 24 hours prior to check out, if you wish to request a late check out. First hour is free then $25/hour after that, not to exceed 1pm. Please note our cleaners sometimes travel for up to 1 hour to clean this home so please respect the 10am check out time.

**HIGH FIRE RISK**
Lake Tahoe is a high-risk fire area. Fireworks, wood fire pits, smoking/improper disposal of cigarette butts and charcoal bbq’s are strictly prohibited.

**BLACK BEARS**
Black bears inhabit Lake Tahoe and are attracted to food and trash. Always lock your car doors, roll up windows and view from afar. Do not feed them!

**TOWELS**
We supply one bath towel, one wash cloth per permitted occupant and then one hand towel per bathroom.

**SECURITY**
Most of our homes have exterior-only security cameras and noise decibel monitoring systems to ensure we are in compliance with the county ordinance but we take our guests privacy VERY seriously. There is never indoor cameras and the exterior ones are only monitored if violations occur. Most owners only look to see bears and snow levels 🙂

Thank you and happy travels!

**FRIENDLY NOTE ON REFUNDS**
It’s becoming more common practice in the rental industry for hosts to refund guests. We prefer to handle any refundable issues that may arise while you are here. We do a detailed inspection prior to your arrival but we are human. Renting someone else’s home is much different than staying in a hotel room. Just like at your own home, sometimes things stop working despite every preventative measure. Let’s try to be reasonable and understanding while we work together to get through any issues that may arise. Reporting issues after check out, while helpful, may not result in a refund. Thank you for your understanding! 🙂
