Awesome house, great location
This house was perfect, well stocked kitchen and comfortable furniture. Great layout and dog friendly. We stayed for a week, worked from here (fast Internet) and enjoyed hiking and eating out. We had never stayed in the summer and it's such a fun place to be without snow. Would definitely stay here again.

Amazing place in great location!!
This is the rare VRBO that is way better than the pictures. Beautiful, comfortable home with tons of space and giant picture windows. It has everything you need and is in a very accessible location. Thank you for the great stay in Truckee! We had a blast. Love that it is dog friendly and lots of slow play area in front and back.

Perfect getaway
Wonderful stay in Truckee, the location was perfect, close to ski resorts and shops. The host was very responsive and was extremely accommodating...There was the large snow storm that made travel unsafe and he was willing to transfer it to the next weekend. There was plenty of space for us to lounge after a long day on the slopes. Everything was clean and working. Would definitely come back to stay.

Donner Get Away Weekend
Really enjoyed this home! Great set up inside and lots of space outside to play. The bonus game room downstairs was a hit for our young adult kids and the ability to have our pup join us, truly made this a family event. Thank you for being dog friendly. Also the owner was a great communicator and also allowed us to start our weekend earlier by letting us in before 5. Thank you! Highly recommend!

We Will Return!
The cabin is cozy, clean, and centrally located. We have three young sons who loved playing and sledding in the open space behind the cabin. We went on a few fun day trips within 45 miles of the cabin, including tubing and snowboarding at soda springs and a visit to the Fun Quest arcade at GSR in Reno.

Wonderful Winter Stay
The home was well situated in the central Truckee area for skiing and exploring the area. Property was clean and well stocked with kitchen supplies, towels, linens, detergent, soap, etc. The driveway is steep - so be aware in winter you WILL need 4-wheel drive as advised in the property description. We did not use the Tahoe-Donner facilities (gym, hot tub, etc) but it was available. The WIFI was strong; TV had Apple TV with all the usual channels available. Scott responded quickly to all my inquiries during my stay. We had such a good time we plan to book again for next year!

A lovely place to be snowed in
We stayed at this house from Christmas to New Years with two kids, two grandparents, and our dog. We were there during an unprecedented snow storm that closed all major highways and ski resorts. The house was very clean and cozy. The beds were extremely comfortable. We found everything we needed for cooking in the kitchen. Scott was great about keeping us informed on local power and Internet outages as well as what we could expect regarding snow clearance, shops that might be open, etc. There was a Truckee-wide power outage on one day, but we used the wood burning stove to heat the house and were able to cook on the gas stove, so we stayed warm and well fed. And once skiing etc. opened up, we were very happy with the location which is very convenient to both the Tahoe Donner cross country and downhill skiing. Despite a rocky start due to the weather, we were able to get in five days of skiing, lots of sledding in the front yard, and plenty of quality family time. Hope to stay at this lovely house again in the future.
