Molly's Treehouse by Hauserman Rentals

// This home is a short term rental and ski lease \\

**DOGS CONSIDERED**

Molly’s Treehouse is a warm, welcoming retreat that’s ideal for two families or a group of friends—the kind of place that feels like home the moment you step inside.

Downstairs, the comfortable living room invites you to unwind with a plush leather couch and loveseat, a cozy gas fireplace, a game table, and a large HD TV—perfect after a day at the beach or on the slopes. Just off the well-equipped kitchen, the dining nook offers plenty of space for everyone to gather for meals, games, and conversation. You’ll also find laundry and a convenient half bath on this level.

Upstairs, four fun, themed bedrooms give everyone their own space to spread out:
Surf’s Up Room: A Queen bed plus a sofa, and it opens into a den with another sofa, TV, and an oversized bean bag chair—great for kids or a second hangout area.
Birdie Room: A golf-themed favorite with a Queen bed, Twin bunk beds, TV, and a walk-in closet.
Area 51 Room: Features bunk beds (Double on bottom / Twin on top), built-in desk space, and a crib.
Primary Suite (Bogie / Maltese Falcon Room): A spacious California King suite with its own sofa and TV, plus a large en-suite bathroom with dual sinks and a generous shower/tub combo.

The full hallway bathroom is shared by the Surf’s Up, Birdie, and Area 51 rooms.

Bringing your dog along? Molly’s Treehouse welcomes canine companions, making it a true home-away-from-home for the whole crew.

2-car garage available. Parking is limited to 4 spaces.

Spacious child centric home

Molly’s Treehouse is in a quiet neighborhood with driveway parking for our 4 cars. It has comfortable beds including 2 sets of bunks, 2 kings and a queen. It’s suitable for multiple families. The big kitchen table accommodates everyone with banquette seating. We also used the welcoming deck for a family bar-b-que. Its a nice bar-b-que and the deck has benches plus 2 available folding tables. We were forced indoors due to hazardous air from the Caldor Fire but the generous number of games and movies kept us entertained with happy kids.

Beautiful property....highly recommend!

We stayed 2 nights at this property with family. The house was exceptionally clean and in a very nice location to the lake. The owner and property management company were excellent to deal with. I would highly recommend this property to anyone looking to spend some quality time in Tahoe!
