CHRISTMAS/NEW YEAR WEEKS are available still so plan ahead, in fact it is quite normal to reserve far ahead. Tahoe is absolutely magical this time of year! Restrictions and premium rates apply.

WINTER RATES: (November 20 through April 10) IF booked ahead I will still give nights at $450 + standard fees. 5 night minimum BUT exception of course when see gaps between reservations of less days (check my calendar)...must take them all. I'll hold dates and rates in advance of 90 days prior to stay with only a $500 deposit. Heavenly Ski resort usually open till mid April. Normally March has plenty of snow!

SPRING RATES: April 11-May 31st rates are currently just $375 per night* with only a 3 night minimum. Less crowds, best waterfalls and flowers! Great time to escape for a birthday, honeymoon, anniversary.

SUMMER RATES: Reserve now and get 2009 rates of $450 per night plus fees* with 5 night minimum unless less days exist between reservations.

*These standard fees are added to any stay: a $250 cleaning fee which includes the home with the pool, spa, sauna, and steam room cleaning. Also local taxes of 10% (required on any legal vacation rental in the area) are charged. Last of all a refundable $500 security deposit is also taken when booked.

How to Make a Reservation

Feel free to ask anything in an email then what I'll need to enter into our standard contract will be exactly which nights and how many guests (up to 12 limit, same price) are staying. I'll email the contract (Word format) for you to review, all dates and costs and other information. When you've read and signed the contract you'll return it by fax to the number given, (or by scan in an email). Once I receive it, for security reasons I'll call to get credit card information over the phone. Once the charges go through your reservation is completed and Paradise Awaits!

Please note that very often people request overlapping or same dates and are in some stage of reading over the contract or organizing their group so I resolve all such conflicts with one simple rule: first to pay is first to get reservation confirmed! In other words, very often and unfortunately he (or she) who hesitates is lost. On the other hand also be certain before committing since cancellations may not be refundable as per contract.

A strict NO PETS policy is in effect, UNLESS agreed to in writing within the contract under "special terms" section PLUS a $50 per pet fee is charged, just ask. No events are allowed here such as weddings, receptions, etc. All guests should be aware of special considerations specific to staying in the Tahoe area and at this home in peticular:
