Fantastic spacious house
The master suite is huge and well appointed. The kitchen is beautifully updated and had everything we needed, but bring your own cooking oil). All bathrooms are updated nicely. We really had a wonderful stay! Neighborhood is super quiet and peaceful. We saw a bear right in front of the house as we were leaving in the morning.
The living room is huge, but 2 of the 3 couches looked new but were not comfortable to sit on. As stated in another review, the TV is a bit small and/or too far away from the couches. Game room was fun and had plenty of pool queues, but no place to sit. The dining room table was huge -- could easily accommodate 10 people but only had 6 chairs, which were clearly too few given the 9 beds! The hot tub was perfect! The deck was really nice and mostly private, but there were no deck chairs to sit on. The best view is from the kitchen window and the narrow end of the deck, where I could clearly see Donner Lake.
Overall, a great house, but needs much more/better seating.

Beautifully updated home
Truly a gorgeous home! Stunning views of the mountains, Donner Lake, and the forest -- we saw coyotes and bunnies running by through the snow (at different times, whew). We had a fantastic time skiing at Tahoe Donner and tubing at the snowplay area, both very nearby.
Cooking was a delight in the ultra-updated kitchen with amazing features and lots of tools.
Each bedroom has its own bathroom, all of which have been nicely updated -- we appreciated the towel and seat warmers.
The easy, flat, circular driveway and a spacious garage helped a lot as the snow was piling up outside (be prepared for steep streets though).
We reported some things that needed fixing but didn't get much response during the busy holiday week. The main disappointment was that the we couldn't use the pool table because the tips were broken off the cues. The ping pong net was broken, too, but we put together a temporary fix and had a lot of fun playing. And we had to do a weird workaround to get the smart hot water heater to give us hot water in the kitchen (by running a shower first) -- it would have been good to get some answers there. Also, the can openers were broken and there were no kitchen towels, but we had brought both so no problem there.
Overall, we loved the house and had a great getaway!

House is amazing! Furniture does not match the grandeur of this house!
We absolutely love this house! The location and view are perfect! The kitchen is well stocked and made it easy to cook. I love the buffet area for entertaining and meals. The negative would be the decor and the furniture. The beds are not very comfortable and the rooms lacked any kind of design. The very large sofa sectional kept pushing apart and should be connected. In my opinion and experience a home this big and that accommodates many guests should have more tv’s. One room has metal bunk beds. The deck and spa are amazing but bring your own chairs! There is no furniture on the deck to enjoy the amazing view. We will book again for sure but hope the owners replace some of the furniture for comfort. I would recommend this home.
