"I can’t say enough good things about Justin and his beautiful home! We stayed there with my family who came to visit us from Israel and they just loved it. The neighborhood is so pretty and quiet, close to the main rd and the shopping centers. The house was comfortable and equipped, absolutely had it all. So much to enjoy over there from the sitting areas to the jacuzzi’s ping pong table, golf, bicycles or just stare at this beautiful view is all you need. Communication with Justin was easy and responsive. I happy I chose this house and I highly recommend it 10/10"

"The home was beautiful with a wall of windows facing the water. It had a nice kitchen that was well stocked with everything we needed to cook a couple meals. Bedrooms were great except the bunk beds are definitely not made for adults - even the lower bed, small thin mattress. Bathrooms are nice and updated. We made use of the cornhole and rented a boat for the dock!"

"We LOVED it! It was quiet and private and yet still close to the things we wanted to do (hike Mt. Tallac, spend time in South Lake Tahoe, hike down to Emerald Bat and Vikingsholm, and even visit the north shore). Loved the hot tub and the couch was so comfortable for after a long day out and about. Would HIGHLY recommend!!!"
