My name is Lori and I started Sierra Getaways (formerly known as Tahoe Five Star Hosting) because I fell in love with hosting guests and helping them make the best memories. I will be your host during your stay at all the amazing Sierra Getaways vacation rentals that I'm lucky enough to manage in the North Lake Tahoe area. Ensuring you have the very best and most memorable experience in Tahoe, whether it’s 2 days or 2 weeks, is my top priority.

Lori was an absolutely fabulous host! Very responsive, friendly, flexible and truly on top of it.

Jenna

Had a great stay with my family for the three day weekend. House met our expectations, was clean and comfortable. Enjoyed the puzzles and board games the property had to offer!

Mariya

Staying at Lori’s was everything we hoped for. The layout was perfect for 2 families: 2 adults and 2 kids each. We were very comfortable around the house. Lots of amenities!! Truly everything you need. We cooked all meals and had fun while doing it! Would rent here again. Highly highly recommend!! Lori was also extremely responsive when I reached out.

Sarah

Fabulous stay and we would love to go again.
Positive: Although it is an older home, it is set in in a lovely location, the kitchen is well equipped, the beds are comfy and the atmosphere was warm and cozy. The host was super responsive. Thank you Lori.
Negative: Minor detail - the upstairs bedroom temperatures were a little hard to regulate.

We had a wonderful weekend watching it snow and enjoying the slopes at Northstar! Lori was an incredibly accommodating host, including making it really simple to book an extra night at the last minute due to a big storm in the area. We were cozy and comfortable, and the house had everything we needed!

Emily

Thank you so much for the lovely review! I’m so glad you were able to enjoy the snowfall and make the most of the slopes at Northstar. Happy to hear the extra night worked out smoothly—storms like that are part of the magic up here 😊. It’s wonderful to know you felt cozy and had everything you needed. I’d be happy to host you again anytime!

Lori

This home exceeded every expectation. The ski-in/ski-out access is truly unbeatable—you step right off the deck and onto the run, then ski straight back home. Après-ski in the private hot tub overlooking the slopes was the perfect way to end each day. The space is modern, open, and incredibly comfortable. The main living area is ideal for gathering, and the gourmet kitchen is fully stocked with everything you could need. Upstairs, the second living area was a huge bonus—it gave everyone room to spread out, relax, watch TV, or unwind after a long day on the mountain. The location is peaceful yet incredibly convenient, with easy access to Northstar Village, The Tree House amenities, and the Ritz-Carlton. And Lori is hands-down the best host we’ve ever had—responsive, thoughtful, and truly invested in making the stay exceptional. We would absolutely return and recommend this home without hesitation. PS our kids loved the bunks beds

Rose

The most beautiful places I have ever stayed, beautiful view and Lori is very helpful and responsive

Beautiful and cozy cabin and close to grocery store. Comfortable beds and linen! Great kitchen and well stocked! Host very responsive and went out of her way to make sure we were comfortable. Lots of games and had baby gate and high chair and pack and play.

Mary

Wonderful place in a wonderful location! Very easy with the parking space right below. Thank you!!

Anya

Everything was great and clean. We celebrated New Year with my family and loved cooking together the kitchen had everything we needed, which we really appreciated. The place is very spacious and super kid-friendly. We had a wonderful stay and would definitely recommend it.

Sabrina B

My family and I enjoyed our stay in this cozy cabin. It was centrally located with great amenities. I recommend this cabin for a family vacation.

Chris

Great stay at Northstar which was perfect for our family ski vacation.  The shuttle network made it easy to hit the slopes each day with the kids and split the group sometimes without worrying about driving.  Lori was an excellent host and always very communicative!  10/10

Thank you so much for the wonderful review! We’re so happy to hear Northstar was a great fit for your family ski vacation and that the shuttle made getting to the slopes easy and stress-free—especially with kids and split schedules. I really appreciate the kind words about communication as well. It was a pleasure hosting your family, and we’d love to welcome you back for another mountain getaway!

Cozy and comfortable! Lori was a great communicator and her place was perfect for our family. There is a wood burning fireplace and peekaboo views of the lake from the living room, which is oozing with Tahoe charm. Keep in mind that the neighborhood has roads that are steep and not well-plowed. Without 4-wheel-drive or chains it would be difficult to drive to the house. Thankfully we had 4wd so were able to make it up, but wanted to share this info with future renters. All in all, a fantastically clean, cozy, charming place!

Jesse

You have to experience this view.  It’s out of every window in the condo, absolutely insane.  We didn’t want to leave.  The area speaks for itself, this condo and all the knowledge the host has available to you just helps improve an already awesome vacation spot!

Dustin

Thank you so much! We’re thrilled you loved the views and found the local tips helpful. So glad the condo helped make an already amazing spot even better. Hope to host you again!

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Absolutely wonderful stay at this ski home in Northstar Village Walk. A 3 minute walk to tje Village. The place was spotlessly clean, beautifully appointed, and very cozy—perfect after a day on the mountain. Lori is an exceptional property manager. She was incredibly responsive and truly went above and beyond, offering great recommendations for parking, restaurants, and lodge clubs. Any small issues were handled immediately and professionally. This home is clearly very well cared for, and Lori made the entire experience seamless. We would 100% stay here again and highly recommend both the property and Lori.

Thank you so much for this wonderful review! We’re thrilled to hear you enjoyed the home, the cozy touches, and the unbeatable walk to Northstar Village—there’s nothing better than being that close after a day on the mountain. It truly means a lot to know the space met your expectations and that you felt well taken care of throughout your stay. I’m so glad the recommendations were helpful and that everything felt seamless from start to finish. We would absolutely love to host you again and truly appreciate the recommendation. Thanks for choosing us for your Northstar getaway!

We had the BEST time! My family came in from South Carolina and had a White Christmas. The streets and driveways were plowed and easy to come and go from even during a winter storm. The house was super clean and so cozy! We also baked and cooked and the kitchen was well stocked with pans and utensils. Lori was super easy to communicate with and I couldn’t recommend the house more. So beautiful!

Vannah

Thank you so much for this lovely review! We’re thrilled your family got to experience a true White Christmas—what a special memory, especially with everyone traveling in from South Carolina. It’s great to hear the roads were well maintained during the storm and that coming and going was easy and stress-free. We’re so glad the home felt cozy, spotless, and well stocked for cooking and baking together. Thank you for the kind words and recommendation—it truly means a lot. We’d love to welcome you back anytime!

It was an amazing spot! We can’t wait to come back!

Ulash

This was an amazing Airbnb in a fantastic location - we could xc ski right out of our door into the forest. Easy access into town and restaurants/grocery. Well equipped kitchen and amenities. Loved the dining area which seated all 8 of us easily. Beds were so comfortable and generally we loved the vibe and coziness of the space. The loft was a highlight, such a cozy nook up there. Would come here again!

Thank you so much for this wonderful review—and for being our very first guests in the home! We’re so glad you enjoyed the location and were able to ski right out the door into the forest—that’s truly one of the special features of this property. It’s great to hear the kitchen, dining space, and amenities worked well for your group, and that the beds, loft, and cozy vibe made your stay comfortable and memorable. We truly appreciate your flexibility and positive spirit, especially with the extreme blizzard conditions during your stay. We’d absolutely love to host you again and hope to welcome you back under calmer (and sunnier!) skies next time!

Maria

Lori is a great host, we loved the house and location. We had so much fun playing in the snow in the backyard, warming up by the wood fireplace and even in the hot tub. I would recommend working with Lori again, she was responsive and helpful before our stay and during.

Janea

The Cabin was very nice, fully equipped and closed to restaurants and groceries. We loved it! Thank you Lori!

Anne

Michael

Took my family for a weekend getaway in this beautiful modern home. Nice quiet location with beautiful nature surrounding it. We loved how close it was to the grocery store and restaurants and the trails are around the corner. The home was beautiful and modern equipped with everything we needed from towels and a hair dryer to a bbq grill and measuring spoons. Lori was very responsive and very easy to reach out to. She took very good care of is during our trip and we got our moneys worth for sure.

Ervin

Beautiful space, huge window with gorgeous view, comfortable for socializing with friends, would stay here again

Tamara

Wonderful!
Positive: Everything was lovely! Beautiful property with all the amenities!

My family had a phenomenal stay and are very thankful. The home is beautiful and perfect for groups of friends or large families. The host is very kind and flexible . Very recommended to stay as home is beautiful and the host is very attentive. We hope to come back soon

Cesar

Alojamiento  excelente, accesibilidad 10 de 10 todo está muy cerca supermercado, actividades por hacer, y muy buenas vistas.

Cesar Palucho

The home was beautiful, well furnished, and central within Tahoe City. Lots to do around the area. Lori was super responsive when we had questions. Highly recommend!

We really enjoyed our stay for a long weekend in Lake Tahoe. The house was clean and the hot tub was so relaxing! We really appreciated the early check in and having a cooler dropped off so we could use it for a picnic. We had some issues with the TV and remote but it wasn’t a huge deal. The bathroom amenities were great, though we often had lukewarm showers. Overall, it was a great house and great location!

Arielle

Great stay.   Had everything we needed in the home.  Would stay again.

William

My family has been vacationing in Tahoe since before I was born and we’ve stayed in a lot of beautiful places.  This house is definitely one I will come back to.   The beds and pillows were very comfortable and having two bathrooms was a plus.  The shower, kitchen, deck and living spaces were all great.  Lori responded to all of my questions in a timely manner and was very helpful.

Pamela

Great place to stay at for a weekend getaway. Internet worked great and beds were very comfy. Place was clean as well

Catherine

This was a great place to stay in the Lake Tahoe area!! We would love to come back again soon!!

Christopher

Truthfully, we didn’t have to contact Lori for anything. We had everything we needed plus more! There was a ton of amenities she provided that we didn’t not except this Air bnb would have at all. Such as, wine cups, things to make coffee, tons of pots and pans… It honestly felt like you were living in your own home. It was a cozy and comfortable stay. We enjoyed the fire place and the peaceful atmosphere.

Yessenia

Lori was super easy to communicate with. My friends and I had an amazing time. The place was clean and spacious. Close by north Lake Tahoe perfect getaway we needed. Definitely would book again.

Piney Woods is a great place.  The cabin was perfect in every respect. Comfortable homey feeling. The beds were very comfortable and the bedroom well appointed. The bathrooms were spotless with plenty of fresh towels. We cannot say enough about this lovely retreat from the hustle. The property was widest and the host was on top of everything. 5 Stars all around.

Tony

Tony! We are so lucky to have you as a guest. Thank you so much! We love when people love the cabin and have a great stay! I hope you come back soon!

Beautiful property in a private, serene location surrounded by trees. Highly recommended!

Victor

We had a wonderful stay. The home is very comfortable and the location is great. Thank you!

Allison

Everything was great. And incredibly well stocked kitchen.

Jeff

This place was perfect for our mountain bike stay. Near the entry, close to food. Only negative is you have to pay 10 bucks a person for the pool. But we loved it

It’s a nice cabin, it has that old school cabin vibe. Everything was great except not having a shower in the upstairs bathroom cus in the photos you can see there’s some kind of shower spray attachment there on the bath tub, it was just a minor inconvenience nothing crazy. And I wish there were curtain or blinds in the upstairs bathroom cus even if the view outside were mostly trees- there were other houses/cabins from a distance so we just felt exposed and just had that eerie feeling of being watched especially at night 😅 If you can’t sleep in complete darkness I suggest you bring a night light!! But the kitchen has everything you need! And although we didn’t use the donner passes, I love that that’s included. This location is great in my opinion. My family and I had a great time in Truckee. Thank you Lori! 💗

Jazmine

Me and the family loved everything, the beds were comfortable and is pretty spacious. Definitely a beautiful and wonderful area!

Maria Guadalupe

Loved our stay! Would definitely stay here again.

Meghan

Lori was an amazing host. Beautiful location. 7 minutes from really amazing food. Very close to the lake. The property views were amazing! We saw a coyote and a bunch of squirrels and chipmunks. Definitely good for kids. Downsides were the stove top will take 30 minutes to heat up so definitely prepare for that. We refilled the propane since they left it empty so we could bbq. Couch bed was broken but we made do.

Samee

This cabin was really cute and cozy. It had everything we typically needed. Lori is very quick to respond and she allowed us a late check out which we were very grateful for since we had a long day and were extremely tired. Would book here again.

Sabrina

Cozy, clean, charming. Just note the upstairs bathroom doesn’t have a standing shower head  (only a bathtub)

Jose

War okay. Mehr aber auch nicht
Positive: Einfaches checkin und checkout .
Negative: Sehr sehr alte Ausstattung. Kleine Bäder. Teppichboden im gesamten Haus (außer Küche und Bad)

Bernd Wiesberger

Lucy

Beautiful home and surroundings. Definitely retro feel with modern amenities. Would stay here again.

Ivana

The cabin is quaint and comfortable. We had a good weekend stay.

Lori’s house is nice! Our family enjoyed staying there. The dishwasher was broken, and Lori was apologetic, responsive and offered us a late check out which was a nice gesture. We’d stay there again, it was a great location!

Danielle

Thank you, Danielle, for coming and being so understanding about the dishwasher! We'd love to have you back! The dishwasher is fixed!:-)

The place was nice and easier to get to. The host was responsive and friendly. Everything we needed in the house was there.

Kenneth

Cute and rustic cabin. Lori was quick to respond to any questions we had.

Laura

We loved staying here, very easy to check in, the whole place was very comfortable and very inviting. We would absolutely stay here again.

Jason

Thank you, Jason! I am really happy you loved it! Please come again.

Very disappointing
Negative: When we arrived at 4:30 the handyman was there fixing the dryer, he told us he would return to complete the fix but never did; therefore, no dryer for the stay. It made it difficult to go the beach and pool and not have anyplace except the outdoor railing to hang wet towels and bathing suits. It was warm in the house and on the wall near the front door was what appeared to be a wall heater that had a fan option.  I thought that I would turn it on to get some air moving in the cabin and open the slider.  Upon turning it on, it sparked and I immediately turned it off.  I emailed them to let them know what had happened and that it was a safety issue.  Did not get any response.
The pictures on the website do not reflect the cabin, especially the lighting.  The front room is very dark and the lighting is no conducive to reading in the evening.
Right back burner on stove does not work.
 No screens on some windows for ventilation. My husband found the kitchen screens on the ground behind the house along with the bottom bedroom screen which was broken. He put the kitchen screen on the window so we could open it for air.  
The screen on the slider needs to be replaced as it is bent and the screen is ripped. 
There were no kitchen towels. There were no washcloths for 6 people (2 children which made bathing them hard). 
The upstairs bathroom will need a window covering when the house behind is completed or they will be able to look into the bathroom. 
Some of the blinds need to be replaced as we were unable to open them .  
Upon departure we were asked to start a load of towels but there was no laundry soap, it was a good thing that I always have laundry sheets in my luggage to I was able to start the load of towels.

Marianne Pitta

Positive: La ubicación
Negative: Encontramos basura de los huéspedes anteriores.....tube que llamar al anfitrión para ver si lo solucionaba ...la televisión no funcionaba....y pocos utensilios para preparar tu propia comida....el baño de el segundo piso no tiene una cortina para privacidad y los vecinos podían mirar a nuestros hijos usar el WC....y eso los iso sentir incómodos ojalá y puedan mejorar lo antes mencionado .....gracias

Oscar Gutierrez

We really enjoyed this cabin in beautiful Truckee. The front porch was fully fenced in which was great for our kids. We had fun with all the vintage puzzles and were able to cook all our meals in the fully equipped kitchen.

Amalia

Great place and a great host. Highly recommend!

Thank you, Christopher! We hope you come back!
