Important Information Before Booking

Bear-Proof Trash Bin: The bear-proof trash bin is located next to the driveway. Please use this bin for all trash and make sure the lid is securely closed after each use. Bears are a natural part of life in Tahoe and can be attracted to unsecured garbage. Properly securing your trash helps protect both you and our local wildlife.

Winter Travel: When visiting Tahoe in winter, be prepared for mountain driving conditions, possible road closures, and delays in snow removal. You’re booking a mountain getaway, so come prepared for changing weather and road conditions. Our snow removal crews work every day, but we have no control over the county road snowplows. This street is not a primary plow road, so clearing may take longer. Four-wheel drive and/or chains are always recommended, and smaller, low-profile vehicles may have difficulty navigating snowy conditions.
