Very nice place. Very hospitable, and family friendly. What i really liked is how they had everything for kids, and thought of everything a stay may need. Everything from candles for a cake extra lighters or even having stocked seasonings for food. The game room is the highlight of the place and its nice open space is perfect for gatherings.

Great place, perfect for our family

We enjoyed this house! It had everything we needed as a family of 10. The downstairs was the perfect space for the kids and It was HUGE bonus to have a second fridge. The house was clean and well appointed. Derek was a great host. He was very responsive. Also, the kids loved the sled hill. Thank you for a great visit!

Derek is an Amazing Host

We had a lovely time at this property in a great neighborhood in Tahoe Donner close to the Tahoe Donner Ski facilities and not too far from Palisades and Alpine. We had some issues with the driveway and think that only cars with very good 4 wheel drive or chains should use it in winter when there is snow and ice but Darin was extremely accommodating and generous even paying a significant amount to have driveway plowed outside of the morning hours when the plow was blocked by our car. House was well appointed in terms of kitchen appliances and had fun games for kiddos and families to enjoy.
