Wolf's Lair - Great Summer Stay in North Tahoe
The house was as described. We stayed for a week in late July and the weather was perfect. Warm days and cool evenings. Not having AC was not an issue, slept great with the windows open. House was clean and stocked with all necessities. Made use of the hot tub during the evenings which was clean and well maintained. We used the rec center for work outs, tennis and pickle ball. House is right between Tahoe City to the west and Incline Village to the east, tons of restaurants and activities. Highly Recommend Wolf's Lair!

Beautiful Home with great amenities
Location is great. Quiet and close to the village. The extra-tall garage was amazing to have, arriving in our SUV with cargo box on top. Absolutely LOVED having a slightly warmer car in the mornings, and not having to scrape off the windshields! And, entering the house through the garage was also super helpful, with all of our belongings. Spacious house, comfortable, big kitchen that was easy to cook in. Beds were comfortable, hot tub was so fantastic to have. Only three things we had issues with ... 1. The radiant floor heating was another amazing amenity -- but there weren't any specific instructions about it and how to control it, and we had a little malfunction the second day we were there, and the whole system shut down for two days. Management was very responsive, and the service guy came out very quickly also. But, it could have been avoided with detailed instructions. 2. There were no specific directions for the hot tub, either, so it took us a while to hit the right combination of buttons to turn it on. It was still a bit of a mystery even on the last day of our trip. But, we managed. 3. The WiFi was very spotty. We couldn't really watch TV during our visit because it was only streaming, and the connection just wasn't consistent enough. All in all, a very nice place to stay, though!

Good location, a few issues.
The house is well located with access to a wonderful pool and activity center. The daily per person cost of using the facilities ( not a small amount) was not properly disclosed. The house had a few issues that were eventually fixed. There was no water from 8:00 am to 6:00 pm for 4 days, because of water main work. Again, this was known in advance by the property managers, but not to us. We eventually received a refund to compensate us for the issues.

Will stay again; only minor issues
Had a great time and will come back. We had issues with their internet and needed to use our 5g to make streaming work (there isn't cable/other TV), but they were super responsive in trying to figure it out. The internet started working well on the last day. Really interesting house with a German theme that we loved! Will bring more beer next time :)

My family had a great time. The location is within the NorthStar resort and you get access to the recreation center which was nice. The pictures are very accurate. We would stay here again.

This isn’t a typical vacation rental with poor furniture and terrible uncomfortable beds. This place is like a family home. Clean comfy and well taken care of.

Wolf’s Lair Review
This little home is quite cute and has the perfect location in the Northstar neighborhood. We loved the view of the woods from the deck and how private it was. We were able to take some nice walks and just enjoy the beauty of Tahoe. We stayed for 9 nights. We would definitely stay here again! However, we wish there had been more silverware and cooking utensils in the kitchen. We also noticed with how long we stayed that we only had 2 paper towel rolls, 4 dish pods, 2 laundry detergent packs, and 2 trash bags. With that length of stay, we felt there should have been a few more necessity items provided vs us having to go purchase more at the store.
