It was a great place to stay. Although, The pictures of lake front was misleading. We did not know where to go. It was definitely not located lake view as was described. Also did not know it was located in the actual lodge. Close to everything. Clean, well kept and very peaceful. Would consider coming back. Just need to choose better when looking for beach access/lake view.

Overall this unit was a great place to stay. Good location that is close to everything. Walkable to get to restaurants and stores, and of course, The Beach! The biggest problem was the pull out bed. We know these are the most comfortable, but this one only had a 3" memory foam topper on in. Could not even attempt to sleep on this on the couch. Had to sleep on the floor on the "mattress" the first night. Vacasa was very helpful in getting an air mattress for the next night. The floors also squeaks loudly! So if you are planning on putting 4 people in this unit, sleeping in the pull out will not be a great experience. Otherwise, we enjoyed our stay.

Great location. Nice pool. Lots of parking. The unit looked clean but smelled of old stale food. I think the rugs needed to be cleaned. Eating table looks worn and scratched up. Had to run the dishwasher everyday as there were limited plates and utensils. It was nice to have a place to cook and rest.

Nice resort
We have been coming to Lakeland Village for 8+ years for a week of skiing. I was concern when I saw the reviews this year, however, our condo was very clean, updated, and nicely furnished. We had some issues with the fireplace/heater. Maintenance was very responsive and resolved the problem promptly. This has always been a great resort for us because of the conveniences for skiers, free breakfast and shuttle service to Heavenly. A few years ago they cut out the breakfast and this year the shuttle is out. They have a city shuttle but our wait was 70 minutes! We have always liked this resort but won’t be back as it’s just not convenient for skiers anymore. If you’re just going to Tahoe to enjoy the area, this is a nice resort and close to restaurants and a grocery store. A short walk to the lake too.

Couldn't Even Stay in Unit
We could not even stay in this unit. The building smelled like an outhouse. There was garbage all over the hallways. There were construction materials all over the place and workers actually on our balcony throwing around construction equipment and looking in the unit. Had to turn around and drive home. Have been trying to get resolution/refund from Vacasa for 20 hours now and have not received a call back from them, let alone a refund or any attempt to resolve the issue.

Great location
It was a great location, close proximity to everything and just a short 2 minute walk to your own private beach which was very convenient. The place was clean and stocked with necessities. The only minor complaint would be that the pull out bed seemed to be on the outs. Our 8 and 10 year old slept fine but I wouldn’t recommend it for a teen or adult as it didn’t seem sturdy for more weight. Other than that, it was fantastic place to stay.

Great for 2 people
Overall, this is a great property. It's just a short walk to the lake with a private beach. There are several pools and hot tubs on the property and the property is kept up nicely. The unit was clean and comfortable and we enjoyed our stay. Some things to note - the property is in the Lodge building which was not clearly spelled out in the description or from the property manager. Thus, it's less like a traditional condo and more like an apartment building which does come with a herd of elephants staying above you. Your ceiling is their floor so there is noise from that, The Lodge is located right off Hwy 50 so you do hear some road noise. Not objectionable but know it's there. The unit is very nice and very comfortable. The only recommendation I would offer is to have more kitchen supplies. There were no glasses larger than a highball glass and only 4 forks, 4 spoons etc. So, that meant a lot of small dishwashing rather than one larger load had there been more utensils. Also, it's not clearly called out in the description and may be my own misinterpretation. The listing has a washer / dryer listed among the amenities. On past rentals, that has always meant it's in the unit. In this case, it's a shared "laundromat" style situation in the basement of the Lodge. So, if you want to do laundry one must go there and wait on your laundry. It is a quarter / debit card situation for the machines.
It sounds like I'm down on this unit. I'm really not. We enjoyed it and enjoyed ourselves. Just wish the listing had been a bit more clear on location, washer / dryer and that the kitchen was a little better equipped.
We would definitely stay in this unit again!
