This is a very nice property and we had a wonderful time. Our group- 2 adults/ 6 teens. We enjoyed most of the amenities. The home was nicely situated a short drive outside of Shaver Lake. Only 5 minutes from pizza and about 10 min to the marina. The neighborhood was nice for walking.
Please note that this property is adjacent to the main highway into Shaver and beyond. If you want to feel secluded, the road noise might be bothersome. If you look over the road, the views and sunsets are lovely. We did use earplugs at night and eye masks as the car lights flashed on the curtains of the master bedroom. Suggestion- Please replace the curtains with ones that adequately cover the windows and light block. Small fix= big impact.
We should have been told about the construction next door! Not cool! Heavy equipment was in operation early Saturday morning. Set the expectation to avoid upset guests.
The layout of the home was terrific for our needs. Food and entertainment are on the top, quiet rooms are in the middle, and games are below. There is a TV in pretty much every room! After 2 days my legs did notice the trilevel stairs impact so I would not recommend this property if you are mobility impaired. The game room is a blast! Not everything works perfectly, but if you roll or slide with it, all is fun. The kids really wished the video game worked. The card table was also a big hit (needs more chairs). The hot tub was nice. Looked clean and was warm. The lid needs repair/replacement but worked well.
There are plenty of dishes for a large group. We did cook a little and found what we needed. Basic appliances were on site and working (toaster, coffee maker, Keurig, crockpot, and cookware). As with most vacation homes, plan to bring your own foil, wrap, dishwasher pods and etc as well as any spices. There was salt but not even pepper.
I would suggest a booklet for the house. As someone who does not have DirectTV or cable, initially, the electronics seemed daunting, but we did figure them out and connected our RUKU. I could not figure out how to turn off the light on the firepit side.
Minor issues- Internet connection glitched and Vacasa was very responsive. We got it working. The lock box is more than frustrating. The lock is finicky. Check-out was at 10 am which seems early, especially on a Sunday so we booked an extra day so we could enjoy the day.
This is a great house for any group. I would book for a week or longer if dogs were allowed.
