About this property

Rock Beach: 3 BR, 2 BA Townhouse in Carnelian Bay, Sleeps 8

• Bedroom 1: King Bed
• Bedroom 2: Queen Bed
• Bedroom 3 (Loft): Queen Bed, Twin Bunk Bed (2 Twins)

Featuring forest views from the living room, this wonderful vacation rental is beautiful any time of the year. Bright and cheerful with room to sleep eight, Rock Beach is the place for you!

The entry level includes two bedrooms. The master bedroom has a king bed, TV, and a glass sliding door to the covered deck. The second bedroom has a cozy queen-size bed. There is also a full bath with a tub/shower. The laundry closet is just across the hall.

On the second level, the living room, dining area, and kitchen are all together, so everyone can gather in one place. You’ll also find the second full bathroom. Plenty of bath linens are provided.

Relax and warm up by the wood burning fireplace in the living room. There's a large flat screen TV with cable and DVD player, plus a comfortable leather sofa, chair, and ottoman. Wi-Fi keeps everyone connected and the adjacent covered deck gas BBQ.

With all those mouths to feed, it’s handy to stay in for some of your meals. The well-equipped, open concept kitchen includes everything you need, especially the all-important dishwasher. There are six chairs at the large dining table and three stools at the breakfast bar.

On the loft, you’ll find one queen bed and one set of bunk beds—a perfect space for the kids or a small family to call their own.

When you’re ready to venture outside, keep everyone entertained in this perfect vacation setting. The Recreation Center / Lodge features a swimming pool, two outdoor hot tubs, locker room saunas, billiards, tennis and bocce courts, and a fitness trail. The complex backs up to Tahoe National Forest, offering miles of hiking, biking, cross-country skiing, and other activities year-round.

Your home away from home is in Carnelian Bay, where all North Lake Tahoe is right at your doorstep! Stroll down to Magic Carpet mini golf or check out Waterman’s Landing, located at Patton Landing Beach, a 3-acre, pebbly beach known for stand-up paddling.

To experience Lake Tahoe gambling and nightlife, Incline Village and Nevada's historic casino Crystal Bay are a short drive away, just across the state line.

Closer to home, you'll find superb dining options right in town like Gar Woods Grill and Pier for steaks and fish, the Old Post Office Coffee Shop for hearty breakfasts, and CB's Pizza for hand-tossed pies and beer.

You're only 10-12 miles from three great ski resorts—Northstar, Alpine Meadows, and Squaw Valley. Whether you prefer to downhill or cross-country ski, snowboard, snowshoe, or go sledding or ice skating, North Tahoe is the place for every winter activity.

At Squaw Valley, after conquering the slopes, go tubing with the kids or try out the mini snowmobiles at SnoVentures Activity Zone. There are dogsledding tours too!

Year-round, the Village at Squaw Valley offers dining, shopping, the Squaw Valley Aerial Tram, and a variety of activities.

In the summer, ride the Aerial Tram to High Camp then choose a scenic trail and walk or hike in one of the most breathtaking places in the world! At 8,200 feet elevation, admire the beauty of the Sierra Nevada Mountains with views of Lake Tahoe and Squaw Valley's legendary granite peaks. In the Aerial Tram building lobby, kids and grownups can have a blast climbing the variety of routes on the 30’ simulated Headwall Climbing Wall. If you dare, learn how to do a front or back somersault at Skyjump; all ages are welcome.

NOTE: Carnelian Woods Amenities: Hot Tubs are Typically open daily in summer and winter, Saturdays only in spring and fall. Pool and Tennis open summer only. Amenity access never guaranteed. Please check website for availability: carnelianwoodsorg

A nice, handy place to stay.
Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was more than happy with the location. I was more than satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We had a lovely time and this was a very good place to stay. We had family staying in a nearby unit which worked out well. This unit was in nice shape except the window shades. Suggest Drapes instead of the shades, esp in the downstairs bedroom where the window needs to be open but the exterior lights shine in at night. The repair to the internet cable where the squirrel ate it was very smooth, thank you. All appliances and heat worked well. The clubhouse with games, ping pong, air hockey, pool etc. was a great hit with the kids and the whole family. I really appreciate having First Accommodations being right on top of any questions we had. Beach is nice and close as it good breakfast place and coffee if you don't want to cook.

Also nice to have access to a pool--after a day at a Tahoe beach the kids still want to swim in the pool!

Great Ski Weekend
Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We had a wonderful stay at Rock Beach condo. The condo was perfect for our party of 6. very clean when we arrived, beds and sheets super comfortable and the kitchen was perfect for what we needed. The new bbq on the deck was great and we loved having the washer and dryer in the unit. The location was great to go to the different ski areas, and we enjoyed the short walk to the lake with amazing views. The hot tub after a long day of skiing was very nice. One of the best condos we have stayed in in Tahoe. We will be back.

Convenient and comfortable
Overall we had a great experience. The property is pretty much as described and getting from there to Northstar was super convenient. One thing to note is that this property doesn't have covered parking, so be prepared to shovel your car out if it snows.

family friendly condo on North Lake Tahoe
Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was very clean. I was more than happy with the location. I was satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: The condo was spacious and provided more than enough room for our family of 5. The kitchen had everything we needed to cook and we enjoyed the location. The property was great and the tennis courts, pool/hot tub and game room were fun for all of us. Unfortunately, we found the property to be extremely dark- there were no overhead lights and not nearly enough lamps to be able to see well. The coverings on the sliding glass doors kept falling down and some of the mini-blinds were broken. The kitchen floor/rug didn't appear very clean, but all other areas were well-cleaned. We would still recommend the condo.

First trip to Lake Tahoe
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: Our vacation rental was in a great location and had almost everything we needed. The only thing we really needed that the kitchen didn’t have was a blender. We cooked all our meals right at the condo and it was very comfortable. The Frig had a couple issues like the numbers on the dial were worn off so whatever it was on when we arrived was causing our salads and fruit to freeze in the Frig so after I adjusted it with some guess work it was fine but it also had a leak in the Frig that we had to keep soaking up the water from. I let the rental agency know so that the next guess hopefully wouldn’t have to keep cleaning up the water. We also really enjoyed the pool, hot tubs and pickle ball courts. Communication was excellent prior, during and at the end of our stay. Overall a great stay.

Did the job
Rating Details: The property manager was somewhat unhelpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I do not recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Overall, it was a great location and nice home to spend a short vacation in. 20 minute drive to both North Star and the Palisades. We were VERY bummed that the hot tub was barely open and the hours were limited. If you want a hot tub don't stay here. That was a MUST for my group and I wouldn't have booked this place had I known. Hours were Noon-8:45pm and once we arrived management said it was only open Friday and Saturday. We went there on Saturday and were informed that they would be closing early by the guy running the office. Definitely a bummer.

Summer family vacation
Rating Details: The property manager was more than helpful. The vacation rental was very clean. I was very happy with the location. I was satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I do not recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We have stayed in many Carnelian Woods condos. While we enjoyed the size of this rental, the screens on the windows need fixing, there are big gaps in most of them. There is no A/C or fan in the main room, so the loft gets very hot for kids. Because the screens are broken they also got bitten by mosquitoes.

Property needs updating.
While clean there is a lot of upkeep needed. The shower on the lower level pulls out of the wall. The shower on the second level leaks. Drawers in the kitchen aren’t easy to open. The cabinet doors do not stay shut unless you purposely make sure the magnets connect. Lighting in the bedrooms are poor. Shades on the sliding doors should be more of a blackout shade unless you want to get up with the sun bright and early in the morning.
