Great Escape

When we stepped into this home, we knew we had struck gold. This place is not just clean but spotless, offering a spacious environment where every detail has been meticulously considered. The kitchen was stocked with everything you could possibly need, from utensils to appliances. Cooking here was a joy with top-notch appliances.The home provided ample seating for relaxation, and the large dining table was perfect for our group meals. the beds were exceptionally comfy, adorned with great bedding, and offered a variety of warmth options with blankets and comforters.The bathrooms were equally impressive, stocked with all the amenities you'd expect from a high-end hotel. From plush towels and quality toiletries to thoughtful touches like toilet paper, soaps, and even small extras like cotton swabs and bath products, After a day out, the hot tub was the perfect place to unwind, soothing tired muscles from our mountain adventures. The fenced yard was a secure haven for our dog, allowing them to enjoy the stay as much as we did.Practicality was not overlooked; the clear instructions on the heating system and the flat driveway made our winter visit hassle-free. Everything was in impeccable working order, showcasing the care and attention put into maintaining this property.The check-in process was seamless. Hands down, this is the best VRBO we’ve stayed If you're looking for a great place to stay, I highly recommend this property - just not when we want to book it ourselves!

This place was awesome! We had a great time here. It has 4 bunk beds, 2 queens and a king. It slept 8 comfortably and would easily sleep 10 like it says. The place was in an amazing location and the garage was empty which was nice for car storage and you could easily fix 3 cars in the driveway, so super awesome for people travelling in. Overall, i would stay again and would recommend this to everyone!

We enjoyed our two nights staying here, the house with great space for group of 7 and the agents are really proactive with instructions easy to follow. Plus we loved the jacuzzi with the nice patio.

Amazing location and property. Highly recommend.

The place was very clean , kitchen was stocked up with the necessities . It was so peaceful just what we were looking for !

Great place to stay in Tahoe if you have a large family! Host were very accommodating, can’t wait until our next visit to Tahoe. Will definitely stay here again!

Great place close to Tahoe City! The property management company is very respectful and professional. There were zero hiccups or issues - everything went as smoothly as possible!

We really enjoyed our stay. House is very comfortable and peaceful. Lots to do at the lake!

We successfully started our stay; the location of the house is great and it is near everything. The rooms were also equipped with everything which makes it easy to reside, and the house is spacious as well. Kitchen supplies were full and it was easy to cook.

We had a great winter stay! House was easy to find and get to. We got some snow that weekend but someone came and cleared some of it out for us and streets were quickly plowed. Having access to garage for our cars with the snow was a major plus. It was comfy and cozy inside. Everyone mentioned the beds being comfortable! We were 8 adults and one toddler, I imagine it would’ve been a little snug for 10 adults. Kitchen had all cooking tools we needed and we had a big dining table to fit everyone. Location was close enough for a nice neighborhood walk to the lake or a quick enough drive to palisades. Hot tub was amazing after a day on the mountain. Overall we had the best weekend and would come stay again!

Such a fantastic rental in a central location. We would stay here again in a heartbeat!

Location was great and place looked just like the photos. Great for a group!

Perfect location right next to the lake and short drive to Palisades. Very clean, spacious, and great communication with the property manager.

The house was super homey and comfy. It fit our large group and had parking for all of our cars. Everything was super clean and ready for us.

Had a great visit over a few days to meet up with family and ski palisades. Nice quiet neighborhood and a roomy place for two couples with kids.

This house was perfect for our extended family trip. Two bedrooms upstairs and two downstairs. Bunk bed room is perfect for kids. We loved the backyard the most. It was super peaceful and had plenty of seating. The kitchen was very well equipped. Bonus, it’s dog friendly and walking distance from beautiful hiking trails!

The place was incredibly well stocked and had a ton of fun game options for the kids. Really comfortable house in a great location.

Great Escape is a perfect place and location for a visit to North Lake Tahoe. Agate Bay Realty was an ideal host communicative and welcoming. Gold Star for this host

We prepared several meals at the house during our stay and were impressed at how well equipped the kitchen was. We were able to find whatever we needed and the labels were really helpful too! The house worked well for the six of us. I’d recommend it!

The home is as clean and beautiful as advertised. The Wifi served well enough to browse the internet. The kitchen was well-equipped and organized with all the kitchenware to support an extended stay of home-cooked meals. Though ants are rarely seen, food should always be stored properly. The rooms are tidy and equipped with additional blankets and towels. The neighborhood was peaceful and had wide roads, parking was easy. Overall, my group had an amazing stay.

A great place for our family to gather and do fun activities that were nearby

Really enjoyed our time at the Great Escape. The location was great for us with everything close by and accessible when needed (as we traveled with our one year old). The house was spotless upon arrival along with a clean hot tub. Plenty of kitchen supplies at the ready if you’re looking to cook meals at home. Will definitely stay here again when we go back.

The house was in such a great location- close to downtown Tahoe City and yet private and not on a busy street. The kitchen was well stocked with everything you need to cook up full meals, and the house was beautifully furnished! We had 4 adults and 4 kids and it felt spacious enough for everyone. We loved the house and would stay again.

A pretty good option. The location is close to many services. The house has everything you need. The beds are comfortable and the kitchen is very equipped, something to highlight.

Our family really enjoyed our stay here! The neighborhood is quiet and beautful and close to grocery store, restaurants, and parks.

Awesome cabin with a great location, lots of amenities and very responsive host. Thank you for the great stay!

The place is exactly like the pictures and me and my group had a great experience! The 2 bathroom situation was a little difficult for a large party but it was doable and we fully expected to run in slight difficulties with the lack of bathrooms when we booked. 10/10

Great spot for big groups! And very comfy beds!

Great home base for winter adventures! Loved having the hot tub.

We had a lovely family vacation at this cabin and would happily stay there again. The kitchen was well appointed, perfect for preparing all our meals. The beds were super comfortable and felt clean. There were small touches throughout- like having q-tips in the bathrooms and cozy blankets at the couches - that made us feel welcome. We’ll hopefully make it back again one day!

Great place to stay, close to a beach and short drive to town. The place very comfortable and the host was terrific!

We’d definitely stay again. This home was in great condition and had everything we needed. Very spacious and clean.

Host are responsive and beyond helpful. Patio is a vibe! House does get really warm. But that’s the only complaint

Great place for a ski weekend, with ample space for a group

This house was one of the best stocked we've ever stayed in in Tahoe. Everything we could've needed was thoughtfully labeled and organized in the kitchen. The home was very clean, in a beautiful location, and perfectly as advertised. We enjoyed walks around the neighborhood, the local pool, easy access to our favorite beaches and lake swimming spots. Neighbors were all very friendly. We visit Tahoe every summer and this home was fantastic for our family.

Great stay and amenities, and well-stocked house. It was a close drive to Squaw Alpine and nearby restaurants and shops. We would definitely stay there again.

We had a great time at this property - the place is cosy, clean, well-maintained; the management was very quick at addressing all the questions.

Well appointed, comfy beds, enough space for two families to share and great location. Thanks for the fun stay we’d definitely stay again!

Very clean, updated, stocked, and cozy. I’d definitely come back!

Well maintained house with spacious back deck and outdoor chill space. The kitchen and household were unbelievably well-stocked - things like cocktail shakers, lemon juicers, every kind of indoor outdoor glassware and serving dishes you can imagine. There's even a flat-iron and curling iron in the bathroom along with the standard blowdryer! The house is clean and spacious, and a block to the pool! The location is fantastic!

Our stay at the Great Escape was terrific! The place was beautifully restored with every possible item one would need in the kitchen! Most important, the beds were very comfortable with plenty for fans on hot days and nights...A real plus was the pool a block away!!! Dollar point beach is lovely. We would absolutely consider staying here again!!

The house is perfectly located and was super clean when we arrived. Proximity to many hiking trails and the lake are perfect. Access to the local beach and sports club was invaluable. We very much recommend the place.

Great location and amenities. We had a great time here!

The home is clean, comfortable and well-stocked with everything you need for a great stay. We loved the private beach access!

Great stay from all angles! House is clean and well stocked with all you need to enjoy your lake tahoe vacation, beds are comfy, and communication was attentive and welcoming... Was slightly concerned about the area being too secluded since it's not south lake tahoe but was very pleasantly surprised to see all the amazing views and attractions near by, markets are close, and there's plenty to go see the only downside was that we didn't stay a bit longer but definitely will next time! Thanks again...

We enjoyed our stay. The kitchen had everything we needed. Loved the hot tub! And neighborhood was great...quiet and perfect for walking/running.

Our three day stay at this place was an incredible experience. Everything was cleaned and ready for us when we arrived and had numerous activities for the children to do. The house is in a beautiful and quiet neighborhood with many walking trails nearby. The hot tub was a plus for the kids and a great way to enjoy the scenery. The outdoor grill was clean and super helpful as well. Since the place is dog friendly, we were able to take him on walks outside. The 7/11 was only a block away and very convenient for shopping. Thank you Agate Bay Realty for the hospitality.

Great location; close to grocery and restaurants. Place was clean, good layout, and fast wifi.

If you’re looking for a location with great house amenities, timely responses, and a spacious living environment this is the place to go!!! My favorite part about this location was how the hosts provided a lot of amenities and well organized with labels!!!! Thanks again for allowing my family to rent we had an amazing time and would definitely recommend to anyone!!!

We had a wonderful 4 night stay here. House was very clean & ready for us. Easy close access to the lake and walking trails. Hot tub was a plus. We were lucky enough to catch the first snowfall of the season. Both kids and adults had a blast.

We really enjoyed our stay! The location was perfect and the house had everything we needed. We also enjoyed the table tennis in the garage!

We had a great time. Really nice house with lots of amenities and very clean.

Loved how it was walking distance to a walking trail. It has everything we needed

This home was impressively outfitted. We cooked the whole time and have high standards for kitchens, but we never wanted for any item, except a flour sieve which isn’t exactly a standard item to expect. The location is perfect - 5 min from Tahoe City and across HW 28 is an awesome park (Dollar Point trail head) for dog walking or outdoor exploring. The hot tub is on the small side (two adults fit very comfortably, three is fine, more than three is on the tight side) but it fit our needs just fine (highly recommend a night time soak, the stars were awesome). All the beds were super comfortable and there were ample pillows and blankets. Additionally, there were plenty of towels and beach towels for the hot tub (there were six of us). This place would work perfectly if you’re coming with friends, or for a few couples with kids, there was lots of space and the bunk room was super fun. Overall a high quality, clean, and reasonably priced cabin. **Covid note: We packed in most of our food and we were glad we did - the Tahoe City Safeway is small and has apparently been slammed, so if you’re COVID wary it a good idea to bring food from home.

This place is larger than the photos reveal, which was a nice surprise. The bedrooms can be a tiny bit tight but they're honestly just the right size. The hot tub in the backyard is really only comfortable for two people at a time, so if you're traveling in a group something to consider. We really enjoyed our stay, the garage is a nice feature considering the frequency of snow. We also enjoyed walking the neighborhood, there's a bunch of trails and places to go for a stroll where you can get a wonderful view of the water.

Jacuzzi can comfortably fit 2-3 people depending on size. Nice quiet neighborhood. Just a short drive from restaurants and shops.

Very nice place with great space for a group! It was clean and they are very responsive, and were quick to check in and send help when needed. The location is good as well. I'd be happy to go back and stay here. Cons: The hot tub is a little small compared to the size of the home (only fits about 4 people comfortably), but we made it work.

We went up to Tahoe for a long weekend with a few friends. It was clean, spacious, and cozy. We would definitely recommend staying here for a Tahoe getaway.

We had to switch our reservation last minute due to an issue at the spot we originally rented through the same company. We were originally hesitant to change our reservation because the original rental was so cute, but we were pleasantly surprised! We ended up LOVING this spot. Easy to walk to the lake (even spotted a little bear on our walk!), and the hot tub was perfect to relax. The rooms were great as we had 3 couples so each couple had their own large bed and very large driveway. We also grilled burgers one night for dinner! Great place!

Highly recommend this property. Super pleased with it for my family of 9. The weather was cold and dark when we arrived. Very nice to be welcomed to a warm and lit home. Loved the kitchen fully stocked with big pots/serving bowls and tools for a big family that loves to cook our meals. Big table for my whole family to sit at and a spacious common area. Very clean and nice having follow-up emails to make sure our stay was going well. Hot tub was a plus as we didn't venture too far from the property this trip. Nice big TV for everyone to easily see. Ping pong table was appreciated in the garage with lots of parking in the driveway, too. Never ran out of hot water which was helpful for our family of 9. Appreciated detergent and a big washing machine, though we only washed one load. Ample towels and extra bedding which is helpful when cold nights. Located in a very nice neighborhood, not far from the main road and walking distance to a very nice hiking trail. Close to beach parks and to some of the ski resorts to explore. Overall loved the place and will highly recommend it to friends. We also plan to visit again!

Perfect space for a group of ten! Open floor plan to enjoy the kitchen, living room, and outdoor space all together/at the same time. Excellent location in between Tahoe City and Kings Beach. Any questions we had were very promptly responded to. Overall, we had a really nice stay.

As presented, this house easily accommodates 10 people with comfort and luxury. It was clean, warm, friendly and had a really well stocked kitchen with utensils, pots, pans etc. Cooking for all of us was a joy and a pleasure.

The house has a slightly wonky full gambrel roof design but inside it's been well renovated with great kitchen and baths. Kitchen was amazingly equipped for a rental house with both gear and spices. Hot tub is only a 2-3 seater but was well serviced and very nice after a day skiing. Extra towels, laundry detergent, many small details appreciated. Owners obviously take a lot of pride in keeping this house up!

I highly reccommend this location! The management company is phenomenal. They were highly responsive and attentive, and even sent us up to date traffic and weather information. Consummate professionals. I will try to stay only at their properties from now on. The house was great, better than the pictures. Clean and spacious and well appointed. Hot tub is a huge plus and located in a great neighborhood. Close to town and to skiiing. One of our best experiences on Airbnb I cannot say enough positive things.

Perfect place, beautiful, spacious, clean, very comfortable. There were very clear communications about check in, procedures, etc. throughout. Nice hot tub, a great little back yard where the kids played in the snow, decent sized kitchen and nice big dining table, lots of parking, and lots of bedrooms made it great for our group of families, some of whom were skiing and snowboarding and some of whom were hanging out at the house with small children.

Excellent Airbnb. Very clean, lots of space for 8-10 people, plenty of parking and fast responses from the host. I would stay here again.

We had an amazing time at Great Escape! The house is even more beautiful in person than it is in pictures. We loved the openness of the kitchen & living area which helped our bigger group to spend lots of time together over the weekend. The house is located in a perfect neighborhood that is super close to snow adventures & the hot tub was an added bonus. Would without a doubt stay here again!

This home is perfect for a small group or a family to stay in Lake Tahoe. The house itself is beautiful and modern. There is a large living area that is open to the kitchen, which allowed our group to stay together while cooking and preparing for meals. The kitchen was stocked with all utensils/tools you could need. The gas range was especially nice. The two downstairs rooms are larger than the upstairs ones, but all have enough space and are very cozy. There was also a nice unfenced back yard with a deck and a hot tub. We didn't end up using the hot tub because of snow, but our dogs loved wandering around in the yard. The Agate bay team was also very responsive. Our group had varying travel plans and they were kind enough to let us check in early and check out late. They even offered to hold luggage for us at their main office if we needed more time. We loved this house and would love to return again.

Great home in a very nice and convenient location.

Our stay was great. The cabin was very accommodating and able to comfortably fit 10 people. The neighborhood is great for walking, with challenging slopes. The cabin is within walking distance of a convenience store and only a 5-10min. drive to beaches. I would definitely recommend this place for your next stay.

Great stay! Perfect for our young family and traveling couple friends. Perfect location with a great community pool and tennis facilities. The house was very well thought out with all the amenities. The kitchen was extremely organized, beds super comfy and great washing/dryer. We would stay again in a heartbeat.

Wonderful place, super nice people. We had a great time!

A great weekend getaway! Will definitely want to come back!

We had a great time! House is beautiful, location is amazing! Host responded immediately for our questions! Definitely I will go back.

Our stay at this property was great. Check-in and check-out were seamless, the location was perfect and the property was gorgeous. The Agate Bay team was incredibly helpful and responsive and made everything as easy as possible. Highly recommend for anyone considering a stay up in Lake Tahoe!

The house does not look exceptionally interesting from the outside but inside offers everything a party of up to 10 ppl needs for an excellent relaxing vacation. comfortable bedrooms, updated and clean bathrooms, well-appointed kitchen, a bbq and and a hot tub. a 2-car garage helped us big way in a snow storm. close to tahoe xc, tahoe city and multiple ski resorts

Very clean, one of the few that actually looks better in person than in the pics. Recommend this place!

The house is clean, spacious and in a great location. Communication is seamless. No issues at all. Would love to go back.

The place is awesome. We’ll definitely stay here again.

Really beautifully furnished place, they had everything we needed for a group of 10 people.

My parents, my husband and I stayed here for a little summer vacation. Our family used to have a place in incline village we always stayed at so this area was completely new to us. We all loved it. Spacious, quiet but friendly neighborhood. Big kitchen with anything you would ever need to cook including grilling tools. Wonderful hot tub right outside the back door. Then a pool just down the road which my mom loved. My parents brought their dog Ginger who loved to go on walk with us in the area looking at all the beautiful homes. Just down the road from Tahoe City with lots of great food and shops with whatever you could need. Would definitely stay here again and it can accommodate a bigger group which is great as well.

This house was exactly as advertised. Would be happy to stay here again.

Wonderful Tahoe accommodation. Nestled in Dollar Point, easy to get to Squaw or Alpine in under 20 minutes. Flat driveway makes it easy to navigate even with a ton of snow.

Great clean place. Fully equipped.

The house was in a really nice neighborhood just 4 miles from Tahoe City, with great walking trail into town. The entire home has been updated and the beds were very comfortable! My only wish is that it was within walking distance (less than a few miles) from the beach, because there is no neighborhood access unless your home backs up to the lake/cliff. Overall we had no problems - internet/tv worked, house was clean, hot tub was clean and working.

The house was newly remodeled and very cozy. Charming Tahoe style house which was fully equipped. We had a great time.

Truly, this was one of the best vacations we've ever had. The fact that we could walk to the lake, to the tennis courts, to the pool, to the 7-11 (a big hit on free slurpee day) was priceless. The house itself had everything we wanted. It was comfortable and large enough for everyone to have their own space. The kitchen was well stocked with everything we needed to cook our meals without having to go to a crowded, pricey restaurant. The setup of the common area was perfect for game playing, watching TV, eating, and socializing. The hot tub was awesome and was used by everyone. It was clean as a whistle and all appliances were working perfectly. We couldn't have asked for anything more. I highly recommend this wonderful rental house and we will be returning next year for sure!

We spent the three day MLK weekend with friends at this lovely home near Tahoe City. The original plan was to go skiing most of the weekend, but due to warm weather and poor snow conditions we only spent half of one day on the slopes; but still had a fantastic time together in this well-appointed home. Everything we needed to nestle in and cook, play games, and watch football was right at our fingertips. And had we wanted to get out on the town it was only a 5 minute drive away. The staff at agate Bay was super friendly and helpful from booking through checkout, and helped us figure out the best places to buy lift tickets and rent gear. We had 7 adults, one baby, and two dogs, and felt like we could have added a couple more people comfortably to the mix.

We enjoyed our stay here. The interior was very well done and looked newly updated. Would stay here again.

Beautiful, clean and new this house was perfect for me and my friends. The rooms are spacious and the beds and comfortable. I would highly recommend staying here!

This place was amazing and perfect for our group! It a great value for the location, space and amenities. Very quick drive to Tahoe city. There are hiking/biking trails basically across the street. Great deck, tons of cook wear, etc. Strong WiFi signal. Washer dryer, pool towels, extra blankets etc. Only complaints would be that the hot tub is like a mini hot tub, fits about 4 people. There are only two bathrooms (which we knew ahead of time). And it would be nice to have blackout curtains in the bedrooms. But we really loved our stay here and would definitely stay again! We absolutely recommend!
