Winter Driving (Nov 1st – April 30th)

To ensure safe and smooth travel, the California Highway Patrol offers valuable winter driving tips. You can find more information from the CHP here. Make sure your vehicle is winter-ready, with brakes, tires, wipers, and the heater all in top condition. All vehicles, including AWD/4WD, should carry properly-sized tire chains.

Gorgeous Views | Very Comfortable! Very comfortable lake front home. The view orientation is incredible, plenty of decks from almost every room to take it all in. The steps you use to access the water are difficult for older people. We used the Buoy for our boat, and the provided kayaks and water toys got plenty of use.

Engagement & March madness weekend! We had such a fun and wonderful time at Sunset Blue!! The views were stunning and we had everything we needed. There was plenty of space to watch all the games, do puzzles and celebrate our daughter’s engagement :). It was the perfect place to have the best getaway.

Great Ski Trip! My wife and I hosted our annual family ski trip at this property. There were eleven of us, including our 5yr old twin granddaughters and 11 month old grandson. It worked out perfectly. The property and surroundings are spectacular. Tahoe Luxury Properties did a wonderful job managing the property and our visit. Thank you to all involved.

Beautiful Lakefront Property! Great home with beautiful lake views. Well set up for large group. The kitchen was beautiful with high end appliances. Large dining room was comfortable and we enjoyed many meals in the house. Large deck and family room allowed us to spend time together inside and out. We also enjoyed the use of the paddle board and kayak on the lake.

Fabulous Vacation Home Sunset Blue is a fabulous Vacation Home and accommodated our family of 6 adults and 4 kids perfectly. The little kids loved the bunk rooms and the games room, the arcade machine was a big hit. The location right on the water was perfect for being able to cool off and swim to the swim platform. The home is very well equipped with everything you could need during your stay. The home is also very close to many great restaurants and all the activities Lake Tahoe has to offer.

Perfect Vacation House This house was truly incredible. The furnishings were new and very comfortable. The house was well equipped (even with Sonos surround sound and Eero Wi-Fi boosters everywhere). We enjoyed our lake time with the use of kayaks and a stand-up paddleboard. The kids loved the floats that were for our use in the garage, too. There is plenty of room to escape for a mid-day nap, but also lots of room to be together for dinner or puzzles or gaming. TLUXP is a great resource, both before the trip and during the time we were there. They are responsive and very welcoming. We will be back!!

AWESOME HOME! Our 9-member multi-generational family just returned from a wonderful week of staying in Sunset Blue, which not only met our expectations but it totally exceeded them! This home offered a well-appointed kitchen/dining area, beautifully decorated & spacious rooms throughout, and the incredible views of the lake from every window & deck made this home an extra special experience for our family! Thank you to the homeowner for sharing your home with us and to Tahoe Lux for your excellent customer service. We’ll be back next summer!

Breathtaking Views We enjoyed staying at this home on the lake! We’ve been to Tahoe many times and stayed on the lake before with beautiful views-but not quite like this. The views were breathtaking. Additionally, the kitchen was well stocked with spices and pots and pans. The layout of the home worked well for our family/teens. The teens enjoyed the game room downstairs. The shower in the master bedroom has great water pressure! The tubs in the other bathrooms might need to be repainted soon, as the paint seems to peel. The kids had to put towels down, but eventually ended up using the master bathroom showers. Overall, loved the home and would love to come back! Manager Response:
