When I stepped out on the deck, I could smell the Jeffrey Pines, feel the crisp mountain air, see the blue Tahoe water, and hear the moutain chickadees. Filling the sense of taste required a little more work, but the grill on the deck helped with that. Inside the unit was filled with beautiful wood and marble. It was very clean. The kitchen equipment had a few gaps. For instance, there was a block of very sharp Cuisinart knives, but no steak knives. (We overcame this by cutting our steak into pieces with a butcher knife to put on skewers.) The beds seem to be a point of controversy, but we found them to be quite comfortable. Our daughter was delighted with the Murphy bed in the office. The master bed was queen length if not queen width. The master bath was spacious and easy to use, especially the shower. Did I mention the deck? It was wonderful.
