Great Tahoe home

We enjoyed our week-long stay at this property! The location is fabulous and it’s right near the adventure center. I appreciated the well-stocked kitchen that even included a spice drawer and salad spinner. We hope to return!

Perfect cabin for a snow trip

This property was perfect for our family snow trip. Check in was a breeze with a coded door, the cabin was spacious with a fantastic layout that made for great together-time. Tons of snow in the yard, we did sledding and made snow men in the back yard. Fireplace was warm. Tahoe-Donner was five minutes away, grocery and restaurants 15 minutes away. Great location and experience.

A nice cabin in Truckee

This is a nice cabin up in the hills, about 15 minutes from Truckee main street. The place was clean and we had plenty of space for 3 people. If it wasn't for the Coronavirus pandemic, we could have even shared it with another family. We didn't even use the upstairs bedroom or loft.

Nice Property

Overall we liked this property. Everything was as described except that the carpets and a bean bag type chair need deep cleaning which the company kindly addressed when we raised the issue. We loved the steam shower amenity. Location is good and quiet. The exterior needs some TLC but did not effect our enjoyment of the place.

A lovely place to stay in Tahoe-Donner

We had a wonderful time staying in this home. The house is well laid out, has a very functional kitchen, and plenty of space. It is walking distance to the Tahoe-Donner cross country ski center, which was nice for us. The only inconvenience is that the internet is slow and inconsistent. Good enough for checking email, but not really for working. Maybe that is perfect for a vacation anyway.

Great place for families with kids

Location was chosen because it was near the Donner resort - literally ~6 mins drive. The little kids were able to all play snow in the backyard also.

Beautiful, Clean, and Convenient

We stayed here for the long weekend, and it was exactly what we needed. The house had everything you needed. It has a modern feel with a rustic cabin feel and there was plenty of space to spread out. The main bathroom is completely upgraded and has a steam shower component to it which would probably be fantastic after a day of skiing. The deck is spacious and there's a charcoal BBQ if you want to grill your lunch/dinner. It's conveniently located and short drive to Squaw, and there's a very small gourment market nearby as well as Safeway. Thank you so much for sharing this fantastic home!

Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Kitchen had everything we needed to cook. Upstairs was useless in the summer. So so hot!! Wi fi was almost non existent. Be careful in downstairs shower. The drain contraption is??? Can stub your toes easily. Garage was a mess but my son had fun with the ping pong table. Our check out time went from 11 to 10? To 10

All your cabin needs provided

I always dread going to the cabin and having really bad pots and pans. That is my cue if it is a place I would like to attend. The pots and pans were beautiful. When cooking for your family it just makes it so much easier. Love the little barbecue on the back patio as well The wonderful view from the deck. Great to have the adventure at Donner community area nearby.

Cozy and comfortable but Wifi was shotty

The house was perfect for our two families. The house itself was a mix of old and new. Floors, Entrance, Kitchen and Bathroom downstairs seem new and the rest of the house kind of old. The steam spa in the downstairs bathroom was perfect for after a good ski day. The biggest problem we had was with the wifi. It was very slow and hardly worked. Every time we did get it to work we had to resign in. Also it prevented us from watching movies on Netflix. We had no other way to watch movies unless we watched for the existing DVD stash. Overall we had a great stay, very cozy and comfortable house. The kids enjoyed the loft and their own space upstairs. Just really wish the tv and wifi could have worked better.

You get what you see

Was very happy with the cabin. Clean. Large enough for our party of 3 adults and 4 kids. Kitchen was clean. It would have been helpful to have a few extra blankets and towels. Thanks for making our Tahoe weekend awesome!

Good but not perfect

This is a well-appointed house very close to the Tahoe Donner cross country ski area, which was our main focus. There are, however, a few minor flaws which prevent me from giving a 5-star rating. First, Wi-Fi was unstable. Second, the living room gets very dark in the evening. Three of four bulbs right over the dining table were very dim; simply replacing them would solve the problem. Third, there was no remote garage opener, so that getting the car in and out was a clumsy procedure. Fourth, many of the closets and drawers were partly filled with the owners' stuff; it would have been better if these were locked to avoid the confusion. Overall, however, these problem did not distract us much.

Great weekend getaway!!!

The house was just right for our weekend getaway. The house was clean and had a very home away from home feeling. There was just enough snow for the family to have snow play.
