HOME NUISANCES
- INDIVIDUALLY OWNED: This condo is individually owned and managed. The HOA manages the community amenities and dictates availability. The private beach is always open.
- HOA: Schedules exterior construction and maintenance as needed so you might arrive to some exterior work being done. This is all scheduled through the HOA and we are often not given notice. While inconvenient, it does not take away from the private beach experience.
- COMPLEX IS LAKEFRONT, NOT THE UNIT: This condo complex is lakefront, but this unit is not directly on the lake. It is a very short walk from the lake. It does not have lake views. The deck overlooks another unit.
- ORIGINAL: This unit, while lovely, is original and not considered luxury so take that into consideration before booking.
- BEST FOR 6: This home sleeps 8 total but there is only one shower. The 2 beds in the loft are double sized so keep that in mind.

IMPORTANT INFO
- QUIET NEIGHBORHOOD: In Tahoe it’s so quiet at night that you could hear a pin drop! As a result, we can only host quieter groups that will abide by all of the county laws. Our guests are normally fine as long as they head inside or to the casinos after 10pm. Appreciate your understanding!
- 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. This is very much appreciated!
- 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 recommend only 4WD vehicles with snow tires, tire chains and experience driving in the snow. Tahoe roads are icy and power outages are 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 we ask that you please respect the 10am check out time.
- NO AC: Like most homes in Tahoe, there is no AC but we do provide plenty of fans.
- 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 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. Please do not feed our bears.
- TOWELS: We supply one bath towel, one wash cloth per 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. Most owners only look to see bears and snow levels at their homes 🙂

Thank you and happy travels!

WINTER TRAVEL ADVISORY
(The following pertains to all homes in Tahoe and not just this one)
A typical storm in Tahoe can drop anywhere from 1-3 feet in 24 hours so if you haven’t been to Tahoe during a heavy Winter, please be prepared. The roads and driveways are plowed about once a day up here so if it’s snowed recently, you WILL arrive to snow on the driveway. Since street parking is not allowed, you will need to drive over the snow either using chains or with your 4WD engaged. Especially after the historic Winter of 2023, we do not recommend coming to Tahoe unless you have a higher clearance 4WD vehicle with snow tires, tire chains AND experience driving in the snow. ‘All weather’ tires are not the same as snow tires. Even if it’s not actively snowing, our roads can be steep and icy. Power outages are also common. The Grand Welcome difference is we have a very experienced local team and trusted vendors who are here to help you during your stay – as long as safety allows for us to do so.
