Great stay
Overall, we had a great time at this place. To us, it was better than the pictures. The moment you walk in, you feel the warmth of the house. For more objective details, here are some pros and cons from our stay: Pros: Beautiful open layout, plus a specific area for kids. Beautiful kitchen: completely stocked with cooking dishes. Location near the lake. Hot tub was great. Bathrooms equipped with heated flooring, which was a huge plus. Management was responsive. Cons: Two diapers were found. Shockingly within sight (cleaning team responsibility). Driveway not sedan-friendly; built for SUVs. Outdoor trash cans were not emptied from the previous stay. Snow was not shoveled off the stairs to the house so we had to do it ourselves. In conclusion, we had good time at the place. It was fairly clean but diapers were upsetting considering the amount of money we get charged for cleaning. However, I would still recommend this place.

Filthy house and rude property management
The house is unfit for a rental. They have a serious mouse and ant infestation and shouldn’t be renting out the property in its condition. We saw a mouse scurry under the couch when we got home from the beach earlier. Cleaners are not actually doing anything beyond a surface clean and the house is filthy. There is a woodworm / termite infestation in the master bedroom headboard. Needless to say, getting in to a bed full of wood shavings and listening to insects scratching behind your head is not what we paid for. The outdoor area hasn’t been swept or cleaned in weeks.One sink in the second bathroom doesn’t drain / is blocked. The master sink was full of hair. Manuals and junk fill the shelves in the laundry room. Food was left in cupboards from previous guests that the property management team will argue are staples and the cleaners don’t clean inside the cupboards or drawers. The washing up brush was disgusting and full over leftover food scraps. The garage is full of garbage. This is the first thing we saw. The cupboards in the kitchen with cooking equipment in them were full of mouse droppings. We had to rewash everything before we cooked or prepared anything out of fear of contamination. There is a drawer with an old, half used, mouse chewed toilet roll and mouse droppings. The fire extinguisher is past its expiry date, a safety risk. Property manager was so rude. Vrbo couldn’t care less. Never again. Warning all future visitors.

Great house in a great location near lake and skiing
715 Granite Road is a beautiful property just off Lake Tahoe. I spent Christmas with my family consisting of my wife, her mother, our adult son and our adult daughter, son-in-law and granddaughter. The house has four bedrooms and two large baths (and a half bath) making it a convenient and pleasurable stay for everyone. Very modern facilities including heated floors in the remodeled full baths and a modern kitchen. Living room and family room were great for getting everyone together. The house is about 20 minutes from the Northstar ski resort with a diverse mix of green, blue and black slopes allowing us to get our "ski legs" back. The team renting it to us was very responsive in helping us get settled into the house. Outstanding site for our Christmas together.

Great House, Great Location
The house was spacious and clean. Kitchen had everything we needed to cook a few meals. The kids loved playing in the snow in the backyard, and the fun little treehouse! The sonos speakers were a great addition. No TV in the main living/kitchen area, but that's ok. There was a nice little tv room with a sectional couch with enough room to let the kids play and relax. Very nice large table in the dining space off the kitchen area. Master bath & heated floors were great! No issues with this house. A few things to note in winter: Granite is a bit of a hill...and the driveway is just a small steep patch, then stairs leading up to the door. If you have a 2 wheel drive car, and there's snow in the forecast, you may want to be careful. If you can't climb stairs you'll also need to take considerations, but that's pretty much any house in Tahoe. Will be back!
