The Space: This retreat is seriously stunning! Our favorite part is the fact that it backs right up to the forest. In this particular neighborhood located right off Pioneer trail, you have access to miles and miles of walking and biking trails right out your back door. Not to mention, the North Upper Truckee river for splashing around is just a short walk away. This home is perfect for those wanting to unwind in style. Take an early morning walk to the river, and hang out by the firepit in the evening.
HIGHLIGHTS Safe neighborhood Backs to forest land and trails Miles of walking trails nearby Upper Truckee River is a 10 min walk away Large chef’s kitchen Gas fire pit - Summer only Great backyard - Summer only

The house was in terrible condition, with a jammed front door that was difficult to open. Inside, it was dirty, with visible dust throughout, and the dishwasher didn’t work. To make matters worse, the kitchen was infested with ants, making it impossible to enjoy our stay. I tried reaching out to the host, but the response was slow, and the issues were never addressed.
We absolutely loved this beautiful home. This house was built with quality materials and furnishing's are very nice and comfortable. Amenities are great. Well stocked kitchen with everything you need. Landscaping is well maintained and so pretty. House is in a great family friendly neighborhood and located close to everything. We love vacationing in Tahoe and we would be so happy to stay here again.
We had a wonderful stay, very comfy house plenty of room for everyone. We had a wonderful time and would love to stay at this house again. Very clean and had everything we needed.
This home is beautiful and clean, I loved staying here for my birthday weekend with my friends. It’s even bigger than the pictures portray! It’s peaceful with no houses behind and the backyard is well taken care of and private. Lovely neighborhood with even some bear sightings! Would love to stay here again and again whenever I come up from Sac!
I adored this home! We all loved this property! So spacious, the photos don't do it justice, we had plenty of space for 7 adults, we were attending a wedding so it was easy for us to all get ready at the same time. The house is clean and inviting, all instructions and tips were easy to understand and the rental community were great with communications. The location is about 10 min from everything in SLT. Quiet family neighborhood with lovely hike/bike trails right outside the backdoor!
Overall our stay was great! The home is HUGE! It was perfect for our group of 6 and could likely fit more people although you’d run out of beds. This is also perfect for the winter as the house was super comfy and warm! Swore I felt heated floors! Easy communication and it’s very close to everything. My only issues were that there weren’t enough towels for everyone, there was no soap in the bathrooms for showers, and the washer and dryer didn’t turn on. Normally I wouldn’t mind the washer dryer but because we were skiing and had to dry our clothes we weren’t able to use them.
