GENERAL HOUSE RULES / POLICIES

- Booking guest must be 25 years of age or older.
- Community quiet hours are from 9pm - 8am daily.
- No events or parties. This is not a party house and is best suitable for those looking to enjoy a peaceful time in the mountains.
- No smoking or vaping.
- No commercial photography and / or filming allowed.

BEAR SAFETY (VERY IMPORTANT!): You are visiting an area where bears are present. Generally speaking, bears want nothing to do with people and will stay away when they sense your presence. They are, however, very interested in your food / trash and certain precautions should be taken at all times.

1. The home must be properly secured whenever not physically present in the home (doors locked, windows closed / locked, bear system properly activated). Please make sure that all bungee cords are properly installed across all exterior doors and turn on the system (light flashing) whenever not present in the home. Failure to properly secure the home can put the home at risk and result in considerable damage if a bear enters the property. Guests may be held financially responsible if bear damage occurs and it is determined that the home was not properly secured when not present at the property.
2. Trash must be properly disposed of within the metal bear bin alongside the driveway. Do not leave any food or beverages in your vehicle as bears will not hesitate to help themselves to your goodies and can cause significant vehicle damage. Guests should keep the bin fully latched / locked whenever not loading trash, never leave trash outside, and maybe liable for documented repair and / or additional cleanup costs resulting from failure to follow these instructions.

WINTER ADVISORY: By reserving this house during the winter months (November - April), you acknowledge that you will be traveling into the mountains and that winter storms are common and often unpredictable. The dates that you are choosing to reserve are being held for your group and are therefore unavailable for other groups to reserve. In all cases, our cancellation policy will prevail. There will be no consideration afforded for difficult travel due to winter weather condition. We strongly advise that you pay attention to incoming storms and / or changes in weather patterns in order to help avoid travel delays or disruptions. It is also strongly advised that you travel with a 4WD or AWD vehicle, carry snow chains , and have a shovel that can be used if needed to dig out a stuck vehicle. The driveway is on a seasonal plow service, whereas they come once per day when it snows more than 5 inches. They generally follow the road plows and will first clear the berms at the end of the driveway. You’ll need to move your cars so that the plows can access and clear the driveway (which takes less than 5 minutes once cars are out of the way). We do our best to ensure reasonable access to the property, but depending on the timing of your arrival (if during or immediately following a storm), there maybe some shoveling needed. There are shovels located onsite that can be used by guests, but we also recommend traveling with a shovel in case needed while in route.

ALL SEASONS ADVISORY: By reserving this house, you acknowledge that you will be traveling to the mountains and that Lake Tahoe (while beautiful) is in a natural forest setting. As such, it is possible that you may encounter spiders, ants, field mice, etc. at properties throughout the area. We take every proactive measure to prevent pests from finding their way inside the property (i.e. regular cleanings, seasonal deep cleanings, routine pest control - i.e. spray perimeter and crawl space areas, set traps, seal up holes of entry, etc.). Despite those efforts, there’s always a rare possibility that pests can find their way inside the home (as it only takes a very small entry point for that to occur). This is simply a reality of living in the mountains. By accepting our house rules, you acknowledge this Advisory and agree that there will be no refunds or adjustments to pricing should you encounter a pest(s) within the home.

COUNTY ORDINANCES: By booking this property, you agree to comply with Local County Ordinance regulations pertaining to Short-Term Rental Properties (see below for specifics)

The Lake Tahoe Region has strict ordinances in place that are intended to help maintain healthy community standards with respect to visitation. There are “Good Neighbor Flyers” posted throughout the property that provide a high-level overview of these ordinances. Additionally, we’ve listed off the primary areas of concern below pertaining to Occupancy, Noise, Trash Management, Parking and Fire Safety. It’s important that you review this information. Please let us know if any questions and note that guest violation of county ordinances can result in county fines of which guest would be responsible for paying.

Noise: Please note that all guests must adhere with local noise ordinance guidelines. While we want all of our guests to enjoy their time in Lake Tahoe, this is NOT a party house. We expect our guests to be respectful at all times of surrounding neighbors. Please be mindful of how your noise carries and note that this is especially important between the hours of 9:00 pm - 8:00 am. Noise related disturbances will not be tolerated and are considered a violation of house rules and could result in early termination of your rental agreement (at which time you would need to vacate the premises).

Trash Management: All trash & recyclables must be placed in the metal bear-proof bin located along the driveway. No trash or recyclables may be placed outside the house except within the metal bear-proof bin.

Parking: All vehicles must be parked within designated spots on the property (either within a garage or on the driveway / parking pad - as applicable). Street parking is prohibited at Short Term Rental Properties at all times regardless of season.

We really enjoyed the private beach access, our kids loved hanging out there all day. The house itself was clean. The upstairs had large bright windows. The downstairs bedroom was a little dark otherwise lots of space to hangout. Kitchen was well stocked. Parking availability was great for our two large SUVs, just park carefully to ensure you are off the road and not over the edge.
