Fantastic!
My friends and I had a wonderful time staying at this property. It was huge (2 living rooms), everything seemed pretty new, plenty of utensils/cookware/etc, large driveway that fit multiple cars, comfortable beds, overall fairly clean, and clear instructions. Bummed we couldn't use the deck because it was covered with snow. The hosts/owners were communicative. Would definitely stay here again and recommend to others.

Overall the stay was good and uneventful. My only negative was the listing of a hot tub, but after digging a bit it was at the community center and not on site. The listing should be more explicit with the hot tub location.

Another great time in Truckee
Family had another great relaxing trip. As the other reviewers say house is a little smaller then what you see from the pics, driveway is steep but really wasn’t bad we parked at the top. House was about 90% clean found a few missed candy rappers from the last group. All in all we enjoyed our stay.

Perfect for our two families
We were two families looking for a nice home to host our summer getaway to Tahoe. This house had everything we needed and a few nice extras. A big modern kitchen with a big nearby deck made family meals effortless. Three large bedrooms, nice linens and a bunk bed area gave us plenty of sleeping options. As a bonus the owners included a variety of rafts which we made good use of at Donner Lake and Truckee River.
We found a few minor misses which the owners said would be addressed after our stay: no A/C (listing says it's included. We opened all windows at night and kept them closed during the day to keep cool) and missing blinds in master bedroom.
Overall we loved our stay and would choose it again on our next trip to Truckee

Perfect Stay!
This house was exactly what we were looking for for our long weekend getaway. In very good condition, you can tell it is a loved family vacation home instead on a serial rental property. The kitchen actually is pretty well-stocked with cooking supplies, the mattresses were amazingly comfortable (memory foam), and the side deck was the perfect place to play games while relaxing in the sun! Highly recommend!

Nice Stay
We were happy with this place. It was not fantastic, but fine. The price was right, but you definitely get what you pay for. It was pretty clean, but not spotless. The kitchen is better stocked than many rentals we have been in. There was only one real kitchen towel in the whole place, so we had to use bath towels to dry dishes. It was wonderful to discover they have good quality coffee machines, including an espresso machine! We couldn’t figure out how to use the espresso one since it’s different than ours at home, but the Cuisinart coffee maker was nice. So many rentals just provide “Mr. Coffee” makers, so the Cuisinart one was appreciated! The master bed is not very comfortable, and the master bathroom is small. And get this... the mirror is for short people! My husband is 6’ and I am 5’10”, and we had to duck to look in the mirror. That was weird. Our four kids said the other beds were actually comfortable. I think they had better mattresses. Our kids enjoyed the Wii downstairs, and the house had plenty of room for the six of us. The driveway was VERY steep, and since it was covered with ice, it was slippery and dangerous. The location of this house is great. I enjoyed the use of the club lap pool three days in a row. That’s a big reason why we like to rent in Tahoe Donner— all the amenities, including the gym and pool! We wouldn’t be opposed to renting this place, again, but will probably look around for something a little nicer next year.

A few hiccups ....
The home was smaller than the photos eluded to, but we enjoyed our time together. The STEEP driveway was a challenge. The three bathrooms were nicely updated and beds were clean and comfortable. With that being said the home is in need of some detailed cleaning and organizing. The cleaning staff needs to kick it up a notch and pay attention to some obvious things!!!! The owners can’t be held responsible for things the cleaning staff should be checking for! We enjoyed the deck for coffee and stargazing but only two chairs and all outdoor lights didn’t work, bbq a mess!
Bedrooms need a dresser or someplace to put your clothes away so you don’t have to live out of your suitcases.
The location was wonderful, close to town and Donner Lake where fishing was fantastic!
The weather was perfect and all in all we were sad to leave.
If you stay in Truckee...check out Ace Hardware...they have everything you could imagine!!!

Great Vacation Rental
Really enjoyed bringing my family here to enjoy some time in the snow! The house was clean and we all enjoyed sitting by the fire and relaxing after skiing and playing in the snow. Will definitely be coming back up and renting the house again when available.
