Tahoe Village in Lake Tahoe

Clients of Sundance Vacations for a while, the Von Hofmann’s have taken several vacations.  We received the following letter regarding their recent stay at Tahoe Village in Lake Tahoe, Nevada:

"Our trip to Lake Tahoe in October was very pleasant.  When we first arrived in Tahoe Village, it was in the evening and we couldn’t see the numbers for the addresses.  We had to get out of the car and walk up quite a few flights of stairs before we found that this was not the right location.

We then discovered where the check-in office was and my husband obtained keys and packet information.  Our next adventure was to try and locate our unit in all of the slopes and downhill roads.  We didn’t have very clear instructions on where to go and nothing was lit up brightly so we had a difficult time at night trying to find it.  Once we did finally reach our destination, we set out to climb the many (60) steps up to our unit.  After this feat was accomplished, we had to catch our breath at the top before entering the doorway.Tahoev_sm_31

All in all, it was a comfortable living room.Tahoev_sm_21   The spiral staircase going up to the main bedroom was very narrow and took some balance to negotiate it especially with a suitcase in tow.  Tahoev_sm_11 The bedroom was comfortable with the adjoining bath being fine.  The lower bedrooms were very small and confined. Everything was warm and cozy, but we didn’t like that the fireplace was hooked up to the thermostat. 

We got used to all of this, but I do have to say how spectacular the scenery was.  Tahoevillage_big_21 It was breathtaking being up in the mountains. It is one of the most beautiful areas in the world.  We truly had a great and adventerous vacation!

You definitely need to inform your clientele who book with you of anyone with health restrictions using these units at the time of booking."

Great Vacation/So So Accommodations

We spent a week in October in the beautiful Pocono Mountains and stayed at the Carriage House Country Club, Pocono Manor, PA. I must say the Carriage House is not a “country club” but a dated time-share property. Our first impression was not good—when it took a couple of hours to find our reservation. The facilities include a swimming pool, hot tub, and game room.  There is free internet access on a computer in the lobby area, a pricey restaurant on the premises, and a little breakfast café.  The place is just old and needs to be remodeled.  Our one-bedroom apartment was clean and roomy even though it did not have one comfortable chair – just an uncomfortable loveseat/sofa bed.  The kitchenette was well equipped.  However, noisy banging double doors in the hallway, thin walls, and inadequate plumbing which allowed for cold showers, did not spell “comfort.”
