Shoes
Please remove your shoes upon entering and place them on the shoe rack inside the front door or in the garage. House slippers are welcome indoors, and we recommend a pair of shoes for the backyard.

Parking
There is no street parking permitted in this neighborhood. You may use the garage and driveway. A universal EV charger is available in the garage for your complimentary use.

No Smoking
•         This is a non-smoking property. Guests who violate this policy will automatically forfeit their security deposit.
  
  Noise
  Our home is in a residential neighborhood with full-time local residents. Quiet hours are 10:00 PM – 8:00 AM.
• 
  
•         We sincerely apologize for the construction project next door. While it’s out of our control, we’ve taken steps to minimize weekend disturbances. Work may occur Monday through Friday, approximately 8:00 AM–4:00 PM.
  
  Occupancy
  The maximum number of overnight guests is eight (8). Occupancy beyond this number requires prior written approval from the manager.
  
  Trash + Recycling    

      
•         Trash: Every Monday at 7:00am.
•         Recycling: Every other week according to this schedule.
• 
  
•        Bins are in the garage and must be placed at the curb by 7:00 AM on pickup days.

• 
  Blinds
  Most blinds are cordless—please lift or lower them gently using two hands from the center.
  
• 
  
•         Coffee
•         A coffee maker, grinder, milk frother and locally-roasted coffee beans are provided for your convenience. The manual for the coffee maker is located at the back of the binder. Extra beans are stored in the airtight canister above the coffee station—feel free to use or store your own beans there.
• 
  Bathrooms
  The bathroom floors are pre-heated for your comfort. Please use the floor mats to avoid slipping on the tile floors. We are pleased to offer hotel-style bathroom towels, with extras located under each sink. Please use the squeegee in the shower immediately after use to prevent staining the glass doors. 

•         * We are awaiting a replacement for the upstairs shampoo dispenser.
  

  
  Kitchen
  Appliances, glassware, dinnerware, cutlery, and more are all provided for you. We ask that you take caution and notify us immediately if anything is damaged so we can replace it.
  

•         Hot Tub
  
•         Towels for the hot tub are under the downstairs bathroom sink—please do not use shower towels. For drinks, use the plastic drinkware found in the leftmost kitchen cupboard. For safety, wear shoes in the backyard and be cautious on slippery surfaces. Before entering the hot tub, sit on the edge and wipe your feet with a towel to avoid tracking in debris. Always have two people gently open and close the sliding hot tub cover to prevent damage.

•         BBQ
  
•         Please clean the BBQ immediately after use, while it is still warm and easy to clean. Failure to do so will result in an additional cleaning fee. We do our best to provide propane, however between renters we may not be able to keep it always stocked.  If you run out during your stay you can refill down the street where the Holiday Market & gas station are. BBQ should be covered when not in use.

•         Air
  
•         A/C: It is not customary for homes in Lake Tahoe to have central AC, but for your comfort we have provided AC units for each bedroom. Please use only the remotes and avoid touching the units themselves. The hose can easily pop off and is difficult to reattach.
  
• 
  

•         HEAT: The central heating thermostat is located at the top of the stairs. While the house can get warm between central heat and the fireplace, the upstairs master bedroom (in the right corner upstairs) tends to heat up less than the rest of the house. There are extra space heaters and blankets in the double bedroom closet you are welcome to use if needed. Please unplug/turn off the floor heaters upon check out.
  

•         Children
  We are happy to provide a home where children feel safe and comfortable. A high chair, crib, games, and educational toys are in the double bedroom closet. We do not allow crayons or markers in the house as we have had permanent damage to other rental properties in the past.
•         * There are also some adult games under the coffee table.
  
• 
  
•         Fireplaces
  Both indoor and outdoor fireplaces are gas. During winter months, the outdoor fireplace may be inaccessible due to snow. Campfires and outdoor fires may be prohibited in Lake Tahoe during fire season (late June–November). Please stay informed of Red Flag Warnings here.
  


•         Recreation
  If you’re here during the week, be sure to visit Meyers Mountain Market. Tahoe Paradise Park is a beautiful family-friendly facility just 0.3 miles away (about a 7-minute walk), offering plenty for all ages.
  
  The upper section features Lake Baron, ideal for fishing, paddle boarding, and kayaking on calm waters. You’ll also find tennis courts, a clubhouse, and a beach open for swimming in summer only.
  
  The lower section, along the Upper Truckee River, includes a playground, ball field, basketball court, and a large picnic area with both group and individual spaces. Numerous hiking and mountain biking trails weave throughout the park.
  
  The park is managed by the Tahoe Paradise Recreation & Park District, and the clubhouse or group areas can be reserved for events.
  
  We also recommend South Tahoe CrossFit gym for fun and engaging group fitness classes.

SAFETY

• Do not leave any food or food-related trash in your car or garage. Bears are intelligent and can open vehicles if they smell food.
  
• Do not leave any trash outside.
  

• Never feed or approach it.
  
• Give the bear plenty of space to pass by.
  
• If the bear approaches you, do not run.
  
• Face the bear, make yourself look bigger by waving your arms and yelling.
  
• Back away slowly while keeping the bear in sight.
  
• Make noise to show the bear it is unwelcome.
  
• If children are nearby, pick them up and place them on your shoulders.
  

• Fight back using anything available (rocks, sticks, etc.).
  
• Warning signs of an attack include a steady glare, ears laid back, jaw smacking, and stomping front feet.

•        Pollen
•         There is a considerable about of pollen in the air from the numerous pine, oak, and cedar trees. To minimize effects, please keep ground floor windows closed while asleep at night and while away from the house. It will also help if you place the covers on the backyard patio furniture while not in use.

• WINTER FYI & SAFETY

• 
  
•         We will clear the driveway before your arrival. However, neighborhood streets are not officially plowed, so snow tires are highly recommended.
  
• 
  Please wear appropriate footwear with traction—snow and ice can make the driveway, decks, and especially the back porch stairs very slippery. Use caution and hold onto the railing when using the stairs.
  
• 
  Several shovels are available in the garage and on the back deck for your use.
  
• 
  For additional snow removal help with the driveway, you may contact our neighbors:
  
• 
  Sam: (530) 318-1140
  
• 
  Bryce: (530) 206-6605 (if Sam is unavailable)
  
• 
  Please be prepared to pay approximately $100 in cash or via Venmo, as the work is manual and labor-intensive.
