Great house for a family trip, convenient!

Great house for a family trip with 2 master-like suites plus other bedrooms. It is very nicely furnished, and is convenient to downtown Truckee and skiing. There was some pet hair that caused allergy issues for one of our guests - if this isn’t an issue for you, it’s a lovely place to stay - highly recommended!

This home met all of our expectations! It was even larger than it looked in the pictures. Perfect place for our family! The bedrooms are all a great size. Would definitely stay here again. Only negative - the washer wasn't working during our stay. Woud definitely stay here again.

Comfortable and Spacious Truckee Property

We booked this property because I had an out-of-town guest who had never been to Truckee/Tahoe. The property has two huge Master Suites and a third bedroom with a king bed and a large bathroom down the hall. The fourth room is an office with a make-down couch (Queen size). The place was very roomy at 3,000 sq feet with a lovely kitchen and a nice dining room with six chairs. It had multiple fireplaces (both Master Suites and the Family Room). We were a group of six adults and we had plenty of room to move about. It had a spacious deck with a BBQ and table and chairs, but it was too cold to sit outside, but it looked very nice. We cooked most of our meals there and it was really great. It also had a large two-car garage. We were very happy with the property. There were lots of personal items and nice decorations. It was very clean. The property managers were really great and easy to work with. It was also reasonably priced compared to other properties that we were considering. I would highly recommend this property.

Gorgeous condo

We stayed here for a short ski weekend with my parents and our two children. The house was absolutely immaculate and perfectly appointed. There were so many thoughtful touches. It is conveniently located 15 minutes from Northstar, 5 minutes from downtown and 2 minutes from Raleys. Would absolutely stay here again. Such a beautiful home!

Beautiful place with easy access to Truckee

Beautiful place with easy access to Truckee, the river and north Lake Tahoe. Directly across the street from a grocery store! Beds were comfortable, house was stunning and the host was really responsive when the hot water went out.

Gorgeous and spacious 2 story retreat

What a lovely spot! Beautiful area with lots of nature out back. The interior was very elegant- practical too. Lots of room for our 3 young grandchildren, as well as us and our son, daughter and their spouses. It is within a condominium area which we were a bit surprised to see but still quite wonderful. We had an issue with a set of blinds but that was taken care of right away. We would LOVE to stay there again! The art work in the house is amazing- very tasteful.

Great Getaway!

We loved staying here! The place was amazing - beautiful, spacious, clean. The location is close to a variety of activities, restaurants, and there's a nearby grocery store. We're already looking forward to our next stay. We were a group of 5 with 2 couples, so the double master suites was absolutely perfect for us. If you're a family that likes to stream movies (like us) you will need to bring your own device(s), but that wasn't an problem for us. As mentioned in other reviews, the internet works just fine now, so no issues there. If you're looking for a great stay, this is the place!

Great house

We loved our stay! The house has very spacious rooms and the two en-suite bedrooms was great for a large family with 3 sets of couples. The layout was great! The WiFi wasn’t as bad as the other previous guests’ experiences. They may have fixed the issue since it worked fine for us (not the best but also not bad). Hope to be able to stay here again.

Thank you for the great Memories!

We celebrated our daughters 5th birthday in Tahoe after a tough year and could not have picked a better home. Cozy, great location, clean, phenomenal layout of rooms and amenities. The kitchen is loaded with everything you would want in your own home. I could really go on about how great everything was. Most importantly, my daughter learned to ski and asked us, “when we come back to Lake Tahoe can we stay at the same house”. I commend the owners and property management co. You were all part of this wonderful experience for our family!

The only complaint was that the Wifi was very slow and I think it would be helpful to have humidifiers in the house. Other than that everything was excellent and I will look forward to this rental again and would certainly recommend it to anyone
