Just like home
Another great season in Tahoe. Thanks to the team at Tahoe rental for their great service. This was our second year at the Woodchuck property and it feels like home.
Good home and location
Great home, fun game room, great location.
Christmas Stay
The house was great! Everyone loved the game room.
Large home w/ game room & back yard.
House is general is nice. The size was very comfortable for the 5 of us and the back yard was great for the dogs. The neighborhood was in a nice location with hiking trails within a 5 min walk. The house is definitely in need of some maintenance and a deep clean. Multiple faucets were either very loose or difficult to turn on and you have to muscle the back sliding door to get it open. It was obvious that no one had dusted in a while, the master shower had quite a bit of mold and mildew in it and master bath had a spill on the tile that obviously hadn't been mopped-up. Over-all still had a good stay.
Best rental ever!

Beautiful
Beautiful house in Carnelian Bay. Game room a hit. Hot tub great after a long hike. Larger TV would have nice to watch a movie after a long day
Wonderful Family Vacation
We had a great time on our family vacation using Tahoe Vacation Rentals. One of the biggest positives was their customer service. They make themselves readily available over the phone and text. It’s was such a breath of fresh air talking to real people who were there to help. Highly recommend. Aside from customer service the house was gorgeous and the process of check in and check o it was smooth and seamless. Communication was clear, we will definitely be back. <br/>
Perfect Vacation Home for Couples Trip
We had a great time at this home for New Year’s Eve weekend as 3 adult couples. We loved that there were 3 bedrooms with en suite bathrooms so no one felt subjected to having to have a lesser room. The kitchen is large and has all the basics you need. The furniture was clean and well maintained. We really enjoyed the game room foozball and card games (the pool sticks are non functional as they are missing tips and the air hockey needs to be repaired). The hot tub is large and in a great fenced in yard that our dog loved hanging out in. This house is located in Cornelian Bay and is beautifully remodeled from the exterior with plenty of garage and driveway space for our 3 cars. We will definitely recommend and come back ourselves!
Lovely house, but bad luck with smoke
Only issue was that they were doing controlled burns in the area the weekend we were there and the air was technically at 'hazardous' levels. It was thick and hard to breath. Literally everything we brought has a strong smoke smell now, even our computers somehow. I guess bad luck on our part, but highly recommend confirming with them ahead of arrival that no burns are scheduled if you have any respiratory issues. Even our dogs were struggling by the time we left.
House was great -- exactly as described, lots of amenities. We used the pool table and very well stocked kitchen a ton. Fenced in yard was super helpful for the dogs.<br/><br/>Only issue was that they were doing controlled burns in the area the weekend we were there and the air was technically at 'hazardous' levels.

Lodge needs some maintenance
The property is beautiful, picturesque with lots of room for my large family. There are beautiful trails for miles just a block away. On the down side, the water heater is way too small for the number of people this house accommodates. Many cold showers were taken. I was surprised that little things around the house were worn out or broken. The jets in the master tub don't work, the window off the master bath was not able to be retracted once opened, the kitchen fire extinguisher fell off of the wall, Both gates to the back yard are settled and broken. It was described as pet friendly but my dogs got through two weak spots in the fence which is aging. An hinge is not connected in one of the kitchen cabinets. There are only two unwarped pool cues and the pool table leans to one side so it affects your shots. It all speaks to maintenance and upkeep. Not sure who is handling that for the owners but they have a lot of to do's on the list. For the money I paid, I shouldn't have to be fixing things around the house and property myself. All that said, we had a great time and enjoyed our stay here for the most part. With a little TLC and minimal investment, this place could be a top property. I'd start with smart tv's over the ancient cable setup in place. I'd go back hoping some of these things would have been addressed.
Great location. Great place to stay.
The place was as described. Clean, close to beaches, and very spacious.
Perfect Home
The Woodchuck Luxury Lodge was a perfect home for our family gathering. Renters just before us left an unattended dog that damaged the property. We were immediately contacted by Tahoe Rental Company to notify us that repair work was being done prior to our arrival. The lodge was clean, full of wonderful space and all the comforts of home. If there were any questions or issues, Tahoe Rental was very easy to connect with and 100% responsive. Our family would stay again and again.
Great house
Great location and plenty of space. Game room was a lot of fun. House was very conveniently located. We very much enjoyed our stay.
Awesome chill spot
Stayed here a in December 2022. Plenty of room for our friends. Big kitchen and dining room. Very clean and everything was great! Will stay again in future.
Nice Property
We were here in the area for a wedding. We have rented many houses over the years, and this one rates in the top 5. The house was clean and well equipped. The large, fully enclosed backyard was perfect for the dogs. Unfortunately, we were there during the Mosquito Fire and the smoke was in the hazardous air quality zone. We never got to use the hot tub because it was so unhealthy to be outside. We would definitely like to come back when the air quality is better.
peaceful and relaxing environment
Lots of room and a well constructed home away from noise which made it relaxing.
Relaxing Tahoe Getaway
We had a wonderful time at the Woodchuck Lodge! Very comfortable and cozy and loved the large fenced in yard for our two Golden Retrievers to roam. Deck out back needs a little love, and would be nice if it was railed. All in all, we would definitely rent this home again. Thank you for having us!!
Summer family vacation
We would definitely return.
Beautiful home. Perfect for our family. Well equipped kitchen. Lots of food storage space. Loved the fenced yard for the dog. Location seemed equally distanced between Tahoe City and Kingsbeach. Disappointed it wasn’t walkable to the beach or Garwoods. Cons: The deck is without railings, small and dangerous. Outdoor entertaining space would be a tremendous plus. The dead animals and furs everywhere are bit creepy.<br/>We would definitely return.
Thanksgiving in May
Our family is spread across the country and we have not been able to get together until now. Woodchuck Lodge was the perfect place to have a long awaited Thanksgiving dinner plus do fun family things together. We wished we had an extra day or two, there was so much to do.
Overall awesome cabin
This cabin is extremely large! The upstairs game room is fantastic for our family. The kids had a great time playing hide and seek too, since there are lots of hiding places! There was an issue with laundry, as there is a washer/dryer but there was no detergent provided. The management company did drop some off promptly. Also, in my opinion, with a cabin this size, it would be a great feature to provide just some basic shampoo, body wash, and conditioner. The other Airbnb’s we have stayed in provided those, and it makes traveling for a longer stay much easier. So if you travel to this cabin, be sure to bring ALL of your necessary toiletries, or you will be running to the store!
Relaxing and Memorable
My Aunt, cousin, significant other stayed for my daughters wedding. The house was perfect and welcoming! Thank you for a relaxing wedding weekend!
Beautiful Cabin Vacation
This cabin is gorgeous and located in an amazing location, close to the lake, minutes from adorable Tahoe City. It has a fun game room with pool table, air hockey and foosball. Each bedroom has its own bathroom and there is plenty of space for coming together and space to be alone. The fenced yard was awesome for our dog. The beds were a little too soft and I wish we brought our own pillows, but overall the stay was relaxing and enjoyable.
Amazing stay
We absolutely loved our stay! The kids really enjoyed the game room. The kitchen was perfect for making our meals and each room had its own bathroom. The backyard is big and the hot tub was great! I definitely recommend this place and will definitely book here again

Beautiful Home but very small deck
This is a fantastic home and the rental agency was very responsive. There was plenty of indoor space for our family of 6 adults and 1 toddler. The kitchen was fantastic and well supplied. We enjoyed many family meals and game nights. There were some maintenance needs that we alerted the rental agency to and expect they will be addressed. It was nice having a fully fenced back yard for the dog however, the deck was very tiny and did not allow for the humans to enjoy the outdoors at all. With all of the attention to detail and beautiful décor on the inside, we were surprised and disappointed that so little attention has been placed on outdoor living.

Awesome Tahoe Rental for family with a dog
This house was a perfect location on the north side of Tahoe. Carnelian Bay has enough to do without having to travel to Kings Beach or Tahoe City. Its also conveniently located right in-between the two when you do want to visit either of these more touristy areas. The house itself had everything we needed. My teen boys loved having their own bathrooms and spent most of their down time playing pool in the game room. Highly recommended rental for families.
Gorgeous home
Woodchuck Luxury Lodge is truly a luxury rental. It is beautifully decorated with good beds and a well-stocked, organized kitchen. Covid recovery affected our stay in that rental company was unsuccessful in getting a repair person out to fix a gas leak that was emanating from the newly installed stove. We had to keep the kitchen windows open the entire visit to neutralize the odor and this created issues for the seniors in our group who are always cold. As a former skier, this rental would be perfect for a winter visit and it didn't disappoint during our June visit. Great quiet neighborhood for walks and nature. Toured the lake by water on the MS Dixie. Choose a weekday tour if you go. Boat quite crowded on weekends. Went to Jasons Beachside Grill by the water 3 times and best meal was a Spindleshanks in Kings Beach. Management at Tahoe Rental Company is very professional.
A+ Luxury Lodge
We made a lot of use out of the hot tub, fireplace and game room. We most definitely would recommend to everyone and will stay here again :)
We had an incredible time whilst staying at the Woodchuck Luxury Lodge. The house had every accommodation that we needed and then some. It was exceptionally clean (especially knowing that it was pet friendly), spacious and the perfect Tahoe vibe (the animal wall decor was a fun surprise too!)<br/>We made a lot of use out of the hot tub, fireplace and game room. We most definitely would recommend to everyone and will stay here again :)

Great Pet Friendly Ski Lease
Leased property for Ski Lease - well positioned b/w Squaw Valley, Alpine and Northstar and easy to downtown Tahoe City. The trails behind the neighborhood are great for snow shoeing and hiking. Tahoe Rental Company is one of the best in North Lake and highly recommended (very responsive).

Great dog friendly home
Large home, lots of amenities, quiet neighborhood, dog friendly, enjoyed the hot tub. Only criticism is that carpets could use a shampoo, appeared clean/vacuumed but our bare feet were dirty after walking on them.

Nice Place
House was a delight.
