BBQ, patio furniture, lake gear, and outdoor activity items may be seasonal and weather dependent. Golf cart use is subject to Schaffer’s Mill community rules, local requirements, and availability.

Max 3 vehicles: 1 in garage, 2 in driveway. 🚨 Things to Keep in Mind Tahoe’s beauty comes with unpredictability, including storms, wildfire conditions, changing lake conditions, and occasional service interruptions. Refunds for such issues are considered on a case-by-case basis. Our cancellation policy is firm. No refunds for weather, road conditions, or air quality. We recommend purchasing travel insurance for peace of mind. Guests planning to use lake or outdoor gear should also consider weather, road, parking, and lake conditions when planning activities. Guests are responsible for any county fines during their stay. Please review local short-term rental rules provided at the home. We’re thrilled to welcome you to The Overlook, a newly redesigned Schaffer’s Mill retreat built for comfort, connection, and activity-filled Tahoe days. Thank you for treating our home as your own.
