Loved this home
Our stay was perfect. We did have a moment when we thought we would have to evacuate due to a fire nearby but we were able to stay. The home was beautiful as was the location. The children had a wonderful time at the lake and pools. I would 💕 to stay here again!!

Donner Cabin
We rented this cabin to stay as a family of 4 at Christmas. The size and layout of the cabin was perfect. We have two teenage children, so having the master upstairs and the two bedrooms downstairs was great. The living room and kitchen were spacious with an open concept. The kitchen was stocked with all of the pots, pans and utensils we needed to cook all of our meals. The fenced off dog run off the garage was the best thing ever. It made taking the dogs out at night so simple. We really enjoyed the neighborhood - it was close to a few restaurants and the grocery store.
Overall the cabin was clean in terms of bedding, towels, dust etc. The main reason I took off one star for cleanliness was because there was a really strong food odor as soon as we entered that we could not get rid of during our stay, as well as visible food in the sink drain when we checked in. We contacted Vacasa mainly just to make them aware of the odor. They were kind enough to offer to clean the cabin again at no charge, but we declined. I happened to bring a scented candle so we just kept that burning whenever we were at the cabin and it covered the smell.
I would definitely stay at this cabin again. It’s pretty spacious, thoughtfully laid out and designed for families.

Designed for a Fantastic Mountain Visit
If I was building a mountain home I would copy this design. And it is well and thoughtfully equipped - beds, linens, towels, kitchen items, furniture, snow toys - I could go on and on. The 1/2 bath/powder proved more useful than I would ever have imagined. The gas fireplace was easy peasy, threw a lot of heat, and was pretty to look at. And there's even a dog run under the deck. One of my favorite VRBO properties.

Weekend in the trees
Our family (and 2 pups) had a WONDERFUL stay in Truckee! The cabin was beautiful, clean and easily accommodated our family. We enjoyed the many decks the cabin had to offer, walks through the neighborhood, listening to the creek in the backyard and Pizza on the Hill! Can't wait to book our next trip!

Perfect!
This home met our adult family gatherings needs perfectly! We made use of the fully equipped kitchen by cooking/grilling a family dinner every night of our week-long stay. We genuinely appreciate being able to bring our beloved four-legged family member, too. The home was spotless, the beds comfortable and outdoor seating spacious. Not a single complaint from this family of 6!

Amazing place
The house was great for our group of 8 people (including one tween and teenager). A bit far from Truckee (15 min) but not that bad. Tons of nice trails around. We’ll definitely come back when there’s snow.
