    Fjeldheim was the perfect venue for our small wedding in October 2021. We had about 45 people…read moreattend and had the wedding party stay at the venue with us throughout the weekend. There was ample space so everyone had a bed and it was spread out enough so the guys could hang out down in the pool room while getting ready and the gals could get ready upstairs. The view at the home is absolutely breathtaking and the hot tub perfectly overlooks the lake and mountains. All of the stunning views and scenery gave for some pretty epic and gorgeous photos to capture our big day. Josh and Blue Sky Events worked together to make everything run seamlessly the day of our wedding; even when the heater broke on the tent during the rehearsal dinner and the caterer's generator died before our food could be made the day of the wedding. Josh was there doing everything in his power to make things work and make our day great. He was clear on what rules needed to be minded and checked in with us throughout the weekend to make sure we had what we needed. He was always making sure everyone was having a good time and was a great person to hang out with too. Most wedding venues in Lake Tahoe make you use their caterers, don't let you do unique things like bring a late night munchie food truck or anything outside of their own packages and for some people that's great but for us, we wanted flexibility and Fjeldheim allowed that for us so we could have a day that was perfectly us.

    Wow, wow, WOW! Drop dead gorgeous! That is exactly how I would describe this lovely property…read more Known as one of the top 10 venues and event spaces in South Lake Tahoe, this place has EVERYTHING you could imagine. If you're looking to spend a lovely couple of days in Lake Tahoe and need a place to stay, this is the place for you! Talk about paradise; look no further. Tahoe Mountain Home is a 9,000 square foot private vacation home that can house 30+ people easily. Sitting high above the lake, this property offers awesome views overlooking the lake. I recently came over the weekend with a group of friends and was able to discover all that this property has to offer. The house offered over eight bedrooms and sleeping for the entire guest, all the rooms come with their own name; honestly, I felt like I was in a mansion! My mouth dropped as I drove up the one-way hill to get to the house, the place is HUGE! There were different access ways to the entrance, a fabulous hot tub in the back of the house that fits 4-5 people comfortably and a big parking lot that fits over 10 cars easily. This place is exceptional! The house is located 5-10 minutes from all of the fun entertainment including the casinos, restaurants, and bars and lounges. We took Uber every night and didn't have an issue at all. Now, on to the BEST part, it was SNOWING the WHOLE.WEEKEND. I have yet to experience snow before, so this was not only fun for me but exciting! Now, driving in the snow was not exciting at all, trust me, but playing in it was FUN. On the last night of our stay, we received emails and news reports that there was a blizzard coming and that we may be snowed in. Okay, I became scared once I received the news, but that quickly changed when we had the housing manager come over. Josh is the 'housing manager' and the night I became very anxious about the snowstorm, he came over with his lovely dog and informed our group that we were going to be Okay. He discussed the weather and even asked all of us for our car keys while he plowed the driveway so we can leave much easier to leave for the next-day departure. Can you believe that he moved all 10 cars and plowed the driveway all by himself? OMG, bless his heart! After Josh left, my group advised me that Josh is a wonderful guy that comes throughout our visit to check in with us. I was so touched by the personal touch. This property, as well as Josh, deserves MORE than 5 stars! Yelp, we really have to work on expanding the 5 stars (emoji: smiles). I definitely would recommend staying at this property. I look forward to my next stay. Thank you, Josh, for your amazing hospitality during our stay!

    DO NOT RENT HERE.. we rented the elf lodge for my birthday .. put a 1000 deposit on a CC .. 60 days…read morelater.. no refund .. the place was left spotless and I'm glad i took the pics to use it.. We received the same excuse as others when we asked about the refund.. "sorry i just got back from Florida" " was an oversight" .. but still no fix.. we are contacting the CC company tomorrow and with our connections to the local news station i don't for see a very bright future for Shara Stamler.. I bet if i call with a fake name and want to rent a property she will call me back ASAP. .. this is crap

    whoever wrote the review for 5 stars must be smoking crack and could possibly be.. SHARA!…read more Check this article on ABC Local News "7 On Your Side" Michael Finney More: Bio, Blog, Facebook, Twitter, News Team LAKE TAHOE, CA (KGO) -- When you travel in a group it can be less expensive to all stay in one big place. But be careful about your rental agreements. A Bay Area family put down a big security deposit on a rental and left the place spotless, but in the end they couldn't get the money back. When Patricia MacDonald's son got married up at Lake Tahoe, the family rented a mountain chalet and all stayed together. "Everybody had their own area which is sometimes when you're really close it creates more stress," she said. Related Content MORE: California rules over landlords The rental company, Premier Tahoe Vacations, required a $1,000 security deposit, but it would be refunded if they left the house in good shape. So before the family checked out, Patricia made sure to walk through the place with the manager to confirm there was no damage. "She just took a piece of paper and wrote that the house looked fine and the final walkthrough would be conducted by the housekeeper the following day and that the security deposit would be returned in three to five business days," she said. Everything seemed fine, but five days went by and Patricia had not received any refund. She called the vacation company and no one responded. She sent e-mails and kept calling and still no reply. "I never thought she would just never respond. It was shocking, it really was," she said. "And the fourth week when I got nothing, that's when I tried to dispute it with my credit card company." But she was out of luck there. The security deposit had been charged to her credit card months earlier, when she reserved the chalet, so the standard 60-day period for disputing a charge had already expired. Travel attorney Al Anolik says landlords are supposed to refund security deposits within 21 days under California law if there's no damage. "The general rule is security deposits are completely refundable. If you do damage, how do you protect yourself? When you move in you take a bunch of pictures when you move out take a bunch of pictures and you tell the landlord, I'd like a walkthrough when I leave," Anolik said. Still none of that helped Patricia. Patricia called 7 On Your Side and we contacted Premier Tahoe Vacations. Owner Shara Stamler told 7 On Your Side she had not seen any of those e-mails from Patricia. She had assumed the security deposit was refunded long ago, so she wanted to set it right. "I almost fell off my chair, but they're sending me the money overnight," Patricia said. It was nearly six months late, but Patricia received a package by express mail with a check for $1,000. "And it was like a miracle, I mean it was really wonderful," she said. You double the security deposit if your money is not returned in a timely manner. (Copyright 2010 KGO-TV/DT.

    i felt this vacation rental could have been better for an assortment of reasons. this place was…read moretruly mediocre. first of all, up the icy hill, we couldn't coast on by even with chains on. so we had to park our car at the casino while one of our other cars drove us up. and then, there was no stock of toilet papers or paper towels for the guests to use. we had to rely on ONE ROLL of toilet paper we brought ourselves for the 2 bathrooms. and we're talking about 13 people vs 1 roll. with the paper towel, we had to get creative on that one. The hand soap was diluted with water with barely any soap left. i guess they're really cutting back on expenses. hot water for the shower was hard to find. every time i took a shower, it was painfully cold. & note, i visited this place while it was 17 degrees outside. it was like i was running naked thru the snow. the 3 electrical sockets in one of the rooms were out of order, so it was difficult to charge laptops, phones or ipods. on top of that, no wifi. also, the arcade machine and the directtv did not operate correctly. i felt i was traveling back in time because all the magazines were from 2005. this place seriously needs an renovation and current periodic publications. although, i'll praise the location of the house on the hill, which has a wonderful view of Lake Tahoe. i liked how it's in driving distances to rite-aid and safeway. also, the house itself was really comfortable, but it lacked personality, taste and some homely necessities like cleaning agents and cooking materials. a few things about the house. it has 2 bathrooms, 4 bedrooms, a loft with 2 twin beds, 2 balconies, fireplace, and bars up & downstairs (alcohol not included). the house was okay but there were too many obstacles for a supposedly "relaxing" vacation. i would look around before considering staying here again.

    This Vacation home is a true American home, and is heaven on earth. I brought a group of fourteen,…read moreand every single person enjoyed it. With a view from each room you are able to see the beautiful Lake Tahoe, and every sail boat that comes across. Great house for children and adults, with wide open spaces indoors, games, and plenty of things to do around town. We went during the summer time and it was absolutely lovely. I recommend this home to anyone who is looking for an authentic crystal bay vacation home at an affordable price, worth every cent.
