This gorgeous Kings Beach vacation rental is near all the best Lake Tahoe attractions. Walk to the beach, make the five-minute drive to the casinos in Crystal Bay, or just stay home and soak in your luxurious, private hot tub. You'll have so many options for how to enjoy your Tahoe getaway!

When you stay at this Fox Street vacation home, you'll enjoy a reverse floor plan with the main living area and kitchen on the upper level, and two of the bedrooms below. Perfect for entertaining, the living area, dining room, and kitchen of this cozy getaway are open - allowing for conversations, socializing, and coming together easily as a group. And with three sofas, there's room for everyone to enjoy the gas fireplace or a board game spread out on the coffee table. The TV has cable and a DVD player so on nights that you just want to stay in and relax, you'll have plenty of options.

The dining room table sits right near the sliding glass door to the balcony. You'll have a great view with dinner, and for those perfect Tahoe summer evenings, you may choose to bring your plates outside and dine alfresco on the deck's outdoor table. You could even prepare the whole meal right at the gas grill.

Inside, you'll have a full, updated kitchen for your culinary concoctions. With granite countertops, a gas range, an oven, a dishwasher, and a refrigerator, you'll be able to create everything from a hearty brunch before heading out on the hiking trail, to a whole roast chicken. Extra gadgets include a blender, toaster, and mixer.

The bedroom on this main floor has a queen size bed, matching bedside tables, reading lamps, a crib in the closet, and a desk for writing, setting up your laptop for using the WiFi, or even putting together a puzzle. Downstairs, there are two other bedrooms, a full bathroom (in addition to the one upstairs), and full-size laundry accommodations. One bedroom has two twin beds (great for kids!), while the other room has a queen bed and lower deck access right out to the hot tub. On cool Lake Tahoe evenings, warm up with a soak in the hot tub! Even if the snow is falling, it's the perfect place to relax those sore muscles after a day on the slopes!

During ski season, you'll be located right near all the major ski resorts - Northstar is just a 10-minute drive away! Alpine Meadows and Squaw Valley are only 30 minutes car drive from the house. Year-round, the casinos at Crystal Bay are just across the Nevada state line, less than two miles east.

The Lake House is just a short walk to the beach, theater, miniature golf, shopping, and sports rental stores. Rent bikes, ski equipment, snow shoes, and more. You'll be able to take advantage of this wonderful location and not have to drive at all if you don't want to! A real treat for a Kings Beach getaway.

Come explore popular Kings Beach with a stay at this North Lake Tahoe vacation rental. You'll be right near the beach, the mountains, and the forest - the outdoor attractions are endless!

Nice Getaway
My friends and I had a great stay. It was the perfect location to the lake. Not in the middle of the crowds but easily still a walkable distance to the main areas. The hot tub was a great amenity to utilize and we had a relaxing weekend. Upon arrival we had an issue with wet towels being left behind under the dishwasher, but the issue was promptly resolved. The beds are a bit small - the two twins would be great for a child or small young adult, but not quite comfy for anyone over 5’8” ish.

Birthday vacation
I stayed here with my boys for my 50th birthday! It’s an excellent location. Close to the beach and other fun activities. We are from Texas, so not having AC in the house was strange for us. It was warm, but it cooled down after we set up all the fans. We were disappointed we didn’t see any bears .. hahah! We plan to come back in the winter to ski!

Aug stay
Stay was amazing (2 adults and 2 kids, 13 and 9). Just blocks from Kings beach and shops/restaurants. Loved having the hot tub in the evening to relax. There was noisy cars driving the street in the evenings which we are not accustomed to at all since we live in a rural community, but could just be our sensitivity. Was not enough to make us dislike the house. Would totally stay here again.

Great Get-away!
Second time we've stayed at the Lake House...it was wonderful as always and would recommend. The neighborhood is a bit noisy on weekday mornings but what can you do? Great proximity to the lake and main strip. Responsive when called to ask about how to operate item in house. Didn't have time for the hot tub but have in the past...nice! Would stay again for a Tahoe get-away!

Awesome location
Our family of 6 stayed here for a week in early January 2022. First, location is excellent. Half way between Diamond Peak and Northstar, and walking distance to the beach, park, restaurants, and Safeway. The home is nice and well equipped, and the bathrooms were updated. Having a garage to park in was a game changer, since it was very snowy while we were there. Unfortunately, the hot tub was broken for 5 of the 6 nights we were there, but we got one evening to enjoy it, and it was awesome. The washer/dryer worked OK though the dryer required 2-3 cycles to dry the clothes. I would stay here again, hopefully when the hot tub works.

Walking distance to downtown and beach, 3 car parking spaces, made trip simple and less stresses when traveling. House was clean and good floor plan for bedrooms/bathrooms and stocked well. House heated up a lot during the day and was hard to cool at night using multiple fans and opening windows, making it hard to sleep but we still enjoyed very much and we’re pleased with our first VRBO rental.

Clean and Safe Getaway
We needed a safe and fun getaway for the weekend- and are so glad we found this place! It is an easy walk to the lake, and there are places available for pick-up food. The neighbors are especially friendly and helpful. The rooms are set-up nicely, with plenty of room. The fireplace is amazing! It is set to the temp you want and then just takes care of the rest. We thought that the main room and kitchen was set-up with enough room for us to really relax and enjoy! We booked a few months ago, and at the time there was not a note regarding the hot-tub being unavailable. I even wrote a message to Vacasa about being excited about the hot-tub with some other questions, and the hot-tub was not addressed. It wasn't until the day we were leaving did we get the notice about no hot tub. I wish we would have been told, and we were still charged a $30 hot-tub fee. Another note for those traveling that are used to streaming- the internet works great, however the T.V. does not offer any streaming such as Netflix, Hulu, etc. This was not a dealbreaker for us, but wanted to share since other places I have rented had these amenities. Overall a great spot, and it hit the spot for these moms to have a nice weekend.

Good value but a little disappointed
We rented this home for 2 couples on a trip together. The layout is great with each bed and bath on separate floors but you can only get to the hot tub by walking through one of the bedrooms. We went snowboarding and mainly rented it for the hot tub and the filter was out and it would not turn on there were also wet cigarette butts on the porches and sound the spa. Would have rated higher if it weren’t for those two things

A great break for Thansgiving
We enjoyed our stay at the lake house. There are 2 bedrooms on the first floor, one of which leads to the backyard/hot tub. The 3rd on the second floor, along with kitchen and living room and deck. It snowed when we were there and the place stayed nice and warm. The only things that were a bit unclear was the shoveling of snow and driveway and if there is a service or done by the city. We ended up shoveling and then a snowplow came and did the driveway (we had parked in the garage). Other than this, there was a carbon monoxide alarm in the kitchen that went off, and we were slightly unclear on what to use for laundry soap when we started the towels before leaving (there was a ziplock bag with various pods - some instructions/labeling would be great for us powdered soap users). We handwashed the dishes, but didn't see any dishwasher soap. I think the only other concern we had was the temperature setting of the fridge froze our produce overnight so we lost a full bin of greens and some fruit. Would recommend marking where the fridge should be set to avoid this. Overall, very comfortable, warm, and inviting. Our family of 4 hunkered down for the snow, enjoyed the hot tub, and making some snowforts in the backyard. Thank you!

Family vacation
The house was great for our family’s summer vacation. It was clean, well stocked, comfortable and very family friendly. I can’t rate the spa, as we never opened it, we spent our time at at Kings Beach a short walk away. Location is really great to beach, grocery and restaurants. Only issue was the washing machine did not appear to agitate, I suggest a repairman visit.(I didn’t want to do laundry anyway!)

Great cabin
Very clean and taken care of. With some cabins there will be existing damage/ wear or defective stuff, not with this one. I think this cabin was about 1200 sq ft, but it felt a lot bigger because of the good layout I guess. No cons I can really think of. Would recommend or book again.

So close to a quality rental...
This is a very nice rental property that would be a great vacation option if only the owners put a little extra care into it. We spent a week over the summer in the property and were mostly focused on water sports and the beach. The location, while certainly on a rather loud street, is very close to the water and everything on offer in Kings Beach. The house is laid out nicely, with a great open kitchen, a spacious master bedroom upstairs, and two large bedrooms downstairs. There is a small patio off the kitchen and a very nice hot tub downstairs. We had a terrific week, so I really wish we could give the property a higher rating. Unfortunately the owners are selling the property and seem to have forgotten that there are still weekly renters in the house. Nothing overwhelming, but little things broken throughout the house. As noted by other reviewers, the couches are all ripped with stuffing spilling out. The blinds are all broken, so it is impossible to fully open them to let the sun in. And as noted by others, the beds are actually really uncomfortable. The property manager is very responsive and helpful - reimbursing me for fixing a broken room fan, purchasing another fan for the property, and buying long matches since the grill's ignition staters were not working - but it is really a pain to have to take care of these issues yourself. Lastly, we found it rather annoying and inappropriate that the realtor was in and out of the house throughout our vacation showing it to prospective buyers. Again, both the realtor and the property manager apologized for these intrusions, but the point is that a renter should not have to even deal with these annoyances during a vacation. With likely less than $1000 investment, the owners could make this into an outstanding rental property. But until they either put the extra money in or sell to new owners we would not rent this property again.

Not impressed
Enjoyed kings beach, but as far as the rental. It was alright. Would not rent it again. Due to the beds and the couches. Liked the living room a lot, but the couches are old and uncomfortable. But the beds are the real problem. They were the most uncomfortable beds that's any of us have slept on! We got absolutely zero sleep! I also feel that the cleaning fee was ridiculous! The top bedrooms bed comforter was dirty. There was no washer or dryer. I just feel for the amount we paid, we should have got a lot more!

The house was great. Liked the layout and amenities provided.
When we arrived later than our check in time, the house had not been cleaned. I called the management company and was told they would send someone out right away. Two hours later we had heard nothing so I called again. I was then informed that they wouldn't be able to send a cleaning crew out until the following day. We washed sheets and towels and made it presentable for the rest of our stay. The management company did reimburse us a portion of our cleaning fee.

Location... Location!
One huge thing our family absolutely adored with this place was the location. The house was set in a pretty busy neighborhood but that didn't bother us at all. The house was a quick, no less than ten min walk to the beach. Which was nice because unfortunately the whole entire neighborhood was under construction and the road was closed for the first two days we were there. I don't want to put this in my review because I know this has nothing to do with the house, but the day we arrived there was mass construction going on. I realize that with winter, the majority of road work will be done in the summer but they started as early 6am. It was beyond frustrating. There should have been a warning from Vacasa or at least some sort of credit to offer for the hassle. Luckily for us the road paving and constructed ended the second day we were there. It was 1,000 times nicer to enjoy the house with things so quiet. Another issue we had was the hot tub. The first time I opened the hot tub I noticed a ton of sand and dirt at the bottom I read extensively that if the hot tub was dirty I would be charged an extra cleaning fee. I wrote an email right away to make aware the hot tub was never cleaned upon our arrival. The beds were not very comfortable but everything was clean and our family did enjoy our stay. There was one bedroom upstairs and two downstairs with both bathrooms being good size. The washer and dryer was very nice and made things great for doing laundry. The place specified there were games but we couldn't find a single game that had all the pieces together. The kitchen was big and the living room was a good size with lots of seating. We used the BBQ which worked great also. All in all I would refer this place to a friend, granted that there is no construction in the area.
