Tahoe in the Pines FAQs

Check-in is from 4:00 PM Central Time and checkout is no later than 10:00 AM Central Time. Check-in is with a smart lock, and arrival instructions are sent before your stay.

Not when there is a guest arriving or leaving the same day, as our cleaning team needs the full turnover window. Otherwise just ask in advance and we will check with them.

Message us and we will check the calendar.

Guests must be at least 21 years old to book or stay. Maximum occupancy is 12 guests, and day visitors count toward this limit.

The room count has not changed. We added beds rather than rooms, so the cabin now sleeps up to 12 across the same three bedrooms. There is no extra charge for the additional guests.

Two of the three bedrooms have an ensuite bathroom. The room with two queen beds uses the bathroom directly next to it in the hall.

It opens the digital guest book, which has the house information and local recommendations. No card details are needed.

Yes. The pool is available year round. Heating is an optional add-on at $75 per night, which you can request when you book. For safety reasons guests cannot adjust the pool equipment themselves.

Gas. It sits off the laundry room and runs off the home’s propane line, so there is no tank to change. Turn on the timer, then press the ignitor.

The wood-burning firepit is available year-round. Starter firewood is provided when available; additional firewood is sold at nearby gas stations. Gas fireplaces and gas fire features run October through March and are switched off April through September.

A Keurig. We leave a starter set of coffee and a few creamers to get you going, though it is a starter set rather than a full supply for the stay. The kitchen also has an electric stovetop, oven, microwave, dishwasher, kettle and blender.

We work with Southern Belle Concierge, an independent local service. They offer grocery stocking, s’mores kits, charcuterie, firewood bundles and baby-item rentals. They set their own pricing and you arrange it with them directly, and we are happy to connect you.

Yes, 10 PM to 8 AM.

No. Pets are not permitted, and an unauthorized or undisclosed pet results in a $500 fee. The property is smoke-free throughout, including outdoors — no smoking or vaping anywhere on the property ($500 fine).

The property is on a septic system, so only toilet paper down the toilets. Trash collection is Monday, Wednesday and Friday — please use the street bins.
