Modern, Townhouses, next to the Lake,w/Hot Tub

Our properties offer many unique features, including the chance to have two properties for the price of one. With our low prices, we can offer a larger party of 10-12 people; a chance to rent both of our townhouses at the same time, and side by side, for a lot less than it would cost you to rent just one large home somewhere else. When considering this, think, you get twice as many amenities, as you would in a single large home. Twice the bathrooms, bedrooms, refrigerators, kitchens, towels, hot tubs and T.V controllers!

If you have pets, they can be in their own place and avoid pet issues. Or family issues too. It is the perfect place for your family retreat.

We cater to the individual renter also. Our townhouses are modern, and are one of the few places offering air-conditioning in the summer time.

If you are interested in renting both our properties at the same time, it is the perfect place for a Family reunion. Our Yard is so large and nicely maintained, it backs up to both the properties, and we have picnic tables on the property, to enjoy eating under the trees. Our places are equipped with (Two) gas BBQ s. One for each unit and the good thing is, you don’t have to pack in the picnic, and pack it back out, you can just bring it straight from your kitchen.

This same scenario can be used if you have two grandparents or parents joining you for Holiday. Maybe the family dynamics are such, that staying in two locations, while en-joying the holiday together, is the best situation. There are endless reasons why this situation might be right for you, so consider this, when looking for just one large home.

If you are planning on getting married here this summer, consider or townhouses for a rental. It is perfect for one side to have the groom and groomsmen on one side, and the Bride and bridesmaid on the other. My son just got married and it worked out great for this situation.

The units do not have an open door that goes directly be-tween the properties. It's not like the joining hotel rooms; they are distinctly their own properties. Access is through the front door only of each property.

Along with this, wonderful amenities, we are just a block away from the public beach. You don’t have to worry about finding a parking spot; you can walk to the beach. It makes it very convenient if one in your party wants to go home for a nap, or lunch, then the other party wants to remain at the beach. You can walk home to our property in 5 minutes. This way, you don’t have to be bound by someone else schedule, and you can go home when you choose to go home.

NOW LETS NOT FORGET THE ONES OF YOU THAT JUST WANT TO GET AWAY FROM IT ALL WITH SOMEONE SPECIAL, OR EVEN JUST BY YOURSELF AND YOUR BEST FRIEND FIDO. Our units provide a lot of privacy and quiet time..

The property is perfect for that couple who just wants to get away for the weekend, and do nothing. It can be a romantic place, with the high vaulted ceilings, and the attention to details in the lighting…. Everything you need is at your finger-tips… a wine opener, a fully stocked kitchen; many clean towels, free speed wireless internet, cable and flat screen tv.

Our townhouses are spacious with 2 levels. There is a bed-room and full bath downstairs, and another upstairs. It allows more privacy for each party. Each bedroom has their own full bath, supplied with lots of towels, hand towels, and washcloths. Each room has a T.V., While the main T.V is a 40’ flat screen with cable service over 50 cable channels. We also have C.D.’s set up in some of the rooms. We have books and board games to choose from.

WE have a DVD player, and an assortment of DVD for you to choose from. Our place comes with free wireless internet. Our beds come with down pillows, and high thread count sheets. Our main bathroom has two sinks, for his and hers usage

Our place comes with a huge fenced back yard, with some picnic tables and patio furniture. You don’t have to go farther than your own front door for your picnic this time. Cleanup is even easier. Each unit comes with a Full size washer and dryer.

Our properties have a Hot Tub with each Unit, and a stand up Gas BBQ grill for your pleasure. We have a dining table the sits 4 and a long counter top, with 4 bar chairs to eat at the counter. Our kitchen comes with all that you need. Our appliances include a toaster coffee-pot, blender, and pots and pans. A New microwave oven and Electric stove is furnished.

Each unit has a covered single garage, for your convenience, and has another space behind it, for another vehicle. There is additional parking around the property. We include free snow removal in the winter time.

Our places have a view of the Lake and are only blocks away from the El Eldorado beach.. Within walking distance, you can rent motor boats, or bicycles, mopeds, water crafts, and even for you dare, take a trip Para-sailing. There are lighted public tennis courts, and a Catholic and other church’s close by. There are so many things to do around our area, really within walking distance.

The So. Lake Tahoe community Recreation Center is only blocks away, where you can swim in the Olympic Size Pool, or ice skate at their Ice Skating Rink, and how about a few hoops, at the basketball courts? We also have one of the largest freebie parks in the country,

If none of that gets you excited, we have a nine- hole golf course that you can go and get a few licks in, in the morning. Not to mention our beautiful 18 hole golf course, Edgewood. They have a great Sunday Brunch,

We have a beautiful Large 24 hour Safeway, within a block of our home. We also have a bowling Alley and two local restaurants all within walking distance. You need to visit Mc Duffys, right on the corner for some great ale’,spirits and eats!!

We are close to the MS Dixie, and the Gondola at State-line. We are 1.5 miles from Heavenly Valley and about 1,.75 miles from the club.

There are endless places to shop Ladies, all near our home.

Pets are welcome for a $49.00 cleaning fee.

We hope that we can provide you with the opportunity to be you vacation destination this year.

Best Wishes and we will see you soon in God’s Country,

About Penny Morgan

I'm 71 years old and have lived in Tahoe since 1959.

I like to stay in prestigious places when I travel. I think I am an easy going person, and I like to treat people the same way. I like to stay in other local vacation rentals while I am vacationing.

I like enjoy boating and fishing at Lake Tahoe. There is plenty of boating for your pleasure in Lake Tahoe.

Hope you can join us in Tahoe.

Lamont.

----------------------------------------------------

==============UPDATES==================

In January of this year, my Father, Lamont Morgan, passed away, unexpectedly. I am very proud to be his daughter. Many people have shared great stories about him, that I never get tired of hearing.

Understand that I have taken over his business, and have been thrown quite a lot the first few months. Things are calming down, and getting a little more smooth. Please know that I want to serve all your needs, as did my Father. I will strive to make you happy, since he was so good at what he did. I have done a a lot with the properties, gave them a little bit of a woman's touch, and stocked the kitchen with more items. Your comments are always welcome. Thanks again, and hope to talk with you soon

Thinking of you always. Dad....

That is how the name

Morgan & Morgan Vacation Properties came about.

PENNY MORGAN

Penny Morgan purchased this cottage in 2009
Why Penny Morgan chose Bijou Park

This property has it's own private hot tub with a view of the lake. The beach is only a block away, with restaurants and shopping, all within walking distance. Being Centrally located and close to all the casino' you have the ski slopes, and beach, all within 10 minutes!

I like to go boating and there is plenty of it for your pleasure in Lake Tahoe. (Left by my deceased father. Lamont Morgan.)

My Father was known for his friendly service and laid back attitude. He made the units pet friendly for all of us who love our four legged friends. (There is a $45.00 deep cleaning fee, however.) The units come with all the bedding, kitchen ware, towels and linen included. We offer Wi-Fi internet, and some of the units come with a computer to use. We offer cable T.V and T.V in each room, so the kids have there own T.V.

Our units have been newly remodeled, however they are not old, very modern, and the floor plan is nice. One bedroom and bath upstairs, while the other is separated down stairs, for complete privacy. Every unit comes with Washer, Dryer, dishwasher, full baths, and a inclosed garage for one car. We try to provide you with up to date snow removal, ( cannot always promise, but do our best with our own plow.

So com and join us for some fun in Tahoe. Each unit comes equipped with its own BBQ right on the deck with the Hot Tub. Just think ladies, you can be sitting in the hot tub, while your honey cooks for you??

Just a little humor.

Please be patient with me, however, just losing my Father her recently, and having to learn the ropes so quickly, has been challenging. So I promise to get to lightning speed in returned calls and paper work, however I am still grieving for my loss, and sometimes it can be overwhelming, however I feel him with me every day, so if there is any thing you need answered, don't hesitate to call,t ext or email me at: morgantahoerental@gmail.com

Thank you again, for stopping by to visit us,

Many warm wishes, Lamont and Penny Morgan

The proof is in the Email, followup on bad review

Hello,
This is Penny. I wanted to just clear up one thing. This person, asked me recently if he could use his FREE WEEKEND I GAVE HIM FOR FUTURE TRAVEL plus $100.00 on July 4th. I declined saying it was booked. I guess he decieded to take that out on me with this review. Here is my Email sent to him, debunking his claims.. See for yourself.
---------------------------------------------------------------------
Hello ,____ left his name out

Sorry, my Fathers funeral was this weekend, so sorry I didn't get back to you. I sent you a Pay Pal receipt on Feb. 7th for $532.78 In the receipt I included all your information but I will repeat it for you now.

You are confirmed for the Dates of Feb. 28 arrival check in time is 3:00pm Your confirmed departure date is March 3 departing by 10:00 am.The address of your cottage is XXXXXX Dr in So. Lake Tahoe Ca. 96130
It is in the middle of Tahoe called the bijou area. You can see the lake from were our units are.
Directions: Continue on Hwy 50. When coming to the Y, you turn Rt. toward the Casinos (Lake Tahoe Blvd.) when you
start to see the Lake look toward your rt. and turn on XXXXXXXX st.. It dead ends into XXXXXXXXX Our property is,
located on the corner to your XXXX. you are in XXXX. The lock box is XXXXX ok? located right in the front door ok?

There are insturctions on the Refrigerator, and to start the fire place, you need to adjust the thermostat, like you would a heater, to light the fire. Oaky?

You can use my phone number if any problems you may have. 530-721-0099. Thank you, If you have any other questions please ask.
Penny Parker

I think this speaks for itself. I emailed him and invited him to leave a response to my email, and I have not heard from him yet
You know, I am not perfect, and this has been a very trying time for me. When I feel that I have fallen short, you can count on me, trying to make it right. I couldn't give this person, any more than I did.
So I hope that I have your faith in my ability to serve you well. I am trying to get back to people as fast as I can, I have so many inquires a day, and I will get a better handle on it, by hiring someone to help, or what ever it takes to make you leave great reviews. I encourage constructive comments, if you see anything that I can improve on, please let me know. I wouldn't mind if I heard some positive things too... Thanks for your time.. I hope you will have a chance to come up and visit my home.
Thanks, Penny

If I were solely rating the rental home, I would have given it 4 stars. The townhome has a great location, was clean, and has many amenities (granted not all work).

But the 2 star review is because of the lady who now rents this place. From the beginning, it was very difficult to get in contact with her. I would send her an email and it would take up to 48 hours to receive a response. I would have to send multiple emails before she would respond. At one point she emailed me in ALL CAPS asking me for a response 2 hours after she sent an email (I had already responded). She is very disorganized, it was quite apparent. I had to ask her for detailed directions as she failed to provide any. She didn't even give me her phone number, I had to ask for it (the number was not listed on homeaway at the time). On my travel day, she emailed me because she had not been able to find someone to clean the townhome (Last minute?). She said she did not have my cellphone number, even though I had sent it to her in a few emails. Thankfully I was flying in late so it did not end up being an issue.

We arrived and the issues began. The directions to turn on the fireplace were not clear. We eventually figured that out. We noticed that the 2nd flr was much hotter than the 1st flr. My top priority was finding a rental with a hot tub. When we got there on thursday night, there were no instructions to power the hot tub on, but we eventually figured it out as well. However, the hot tub was not warming up the water!!! So I called Penny and it would go straight to voicemail. I could not even leave a voicemail as her mailbox was full. I sent her an email. I tried calling her again all day on Saturday and Sunday, but her phone was off the whole weekend. SHE NEVER CALLED OR EMAILED ME BACK!!! Extremely unprofessional. Thankfully it was not an emergency, but we were very disappointed. I called her a few times on Monday after we had returned home and she finally answered. She apologized, and her excuse was that it had been her Dad's funeral over the weekend (the previous owner). I did not believe her. She had already used the "father's funeral" excuse with me 3 other times during our 5 week interaction. Even so, she has a responsibility with the renters and I would have expected a call back at some point during my stay.

Based on the previous reviews, it seems that the previous owner was great. But with the new owner, it is nothing but delays, excuses and lies. Not recommended!
Owner's Response: Please let me respond to your message I LOST MY FATHER ON JANUARY 16, OF THIS YEAR. HIS DEATH WAS unexpectedly, on Jan. 16th. My Father did not have things set up yet to pass the business to me yet. Without getting into the person part of my life, My Father lived with a girlfriend that took everything of his, Absolutely all of his paper work, to contact his renters, I had to go about this in a very difficult way, just to get you the information needed to contact you. I needed to secure a new cleaning service, and my Dad had let some things get a little less than normal, so I was managing 4 units, improving on each of them, make sure they were getting snow plowed out each place, and all in the mean time, I lived in Folsom, Ca. Have a family and home that I take care of, not to mention, all funds are tied up in probate. My Fathers girlfriend got into his business postage account and removed his checks out before I received them, So yes if it appeared that I had some issues in the beginning, I certainly informed everyone of the situation. I personally thought I have done a good job considering all the circumstances. If you feel that I failed you, I would like to have the opportunity to give you another chance, now since things are coming together. I would be willing to give you two nights for (some restrictions apply) but please give me the opportunity to make it right. To be honest with you, I haven't had time to grive for my Father yet. I must say that this type of response is very devastating to me, especially since I have really tried and worked to the bone to make all of his go off well... I have many positive responses sent to me, that I will soon forward to the site, so you others may understand why things may have been a little hard for me, and will give me a chance, not that things are calmed down. Please do give me a chance, call me, and I will be happy to answer your question. Sorry if I seemed unorganized, I was moving my office between Folsom, and Tahoe for four months,

Just after losing my Father and receiving a message like this, really is hurtful. and I hope that the rest of you will give me a chance. I promise you can count on me for great service.

Thank you, Penny Morgan

Great property in fantastic location, easy drive to Heavenly California Base Lodge or very close to Heavenly Blue Go shuttle route, easy walk to Safeway, restaurants, banks, shops. My kids loved the hot tub, WIFI and three TVs. I loved the garage to park the car in on those snowy nights. We come from Australia and Lamont could not have been easier to deal with. We definitely recommend this property for any overseas (or even local) visitors, it exceeded our expectations and offered brilliant value for money.

I stayed here with my husband and our 6 year old. The place was perfect. All the comforts of home and very clean. The owner was very easy to deal with and available for any questions during our stay. We were close to everything and even got to enjoy the first snow of the season in the backyard. Great place to stay for the money.
