Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was more than satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Eight of us, 4 couples, stayed for a week. House worked out very well for us with lots of room and spacious main area. Location along the creek was very nice. Property was very clean. Two dishwashers were an unexpected bonus and very convenient for a large group eating "in," as we did.

Hosted a reunion. 28 people fit easily in the great Room with its wide open arrangement and views outside. Kitchen fully stocked with everything. Bedrooms w/own bathrooms were great for five couples. Noise for loft bedroom was not an issue since everyone retired and got up around same time. WiFi was great bonus. Clean. Main floor level with quiet street. Main deck just big enough. BBQ worked great. Minor negative is only access to creek and hot tub is through bedroom or front door. One bedroom was used as a quiet place for baby and sick individual. Everyone in group very pleased with house.

Creekside at Alpine is a fantastic place to stay for a variety of reasons. The house itself is beautiful, clean, well equipped and extremely well located for skiers or those just looking for a quiet, relaxing location. There is no view to equal that out of the massive windows overlooking the creek or stream behind the house. It even made doing the dishes a pleasure. While we were a little worried about the loft (5th bedroom and bath), it worked out just fine. For skiers, Alpine Meadows, Squaw Valley, Homewood, and Northstar are all within 25 minutes or less (Alpine is only about 3 minutes away). For shopping, Truckee and Tahoe City are both nearby. There were a few minor maintenance/housekeeping issues to report. Those that come to mind are the lack of garage door openers, the lack of a stopper for the drain on the main floor bath tub, a broken electrical outlet behind the bed in the main floor bedroom, a running toilet in the loft bathroom, a loose door just below the kitchen sink (right side) and the false drawer just above it that had been scotch taped to hold it in place, and perhaps there could be a few more teaspoons added to the plentiful silverware. These are mentioned only to help the owner keep up with a fantastic home and they in no way detracted from a great vacation. We would and already have recommended this house to friends that are considering a trip to Lake Tahoe.

Creekside was perfect for our family of 12, 8 adults, with four kids, plus two dogs, in four cars. It accomodated all of us with privacy when we needed it, and a great living/dining/kitchen space where we could gather with room to spread and relax. The access, the shuttle or short drive to the Alpine Meadoes ski lodge, wonderful walks, and proximity to Truckee and Tahoe City were great. On top of that, we had a ton of snow this year and a true winter wonderland. We plan to be there next season, schedules permitting.
