Certainly one of the best Vrbo’s that we’ve stayed. Our adult family of 8 enjoyed this spacious & very well equipped cabin home. Highlights for us included the large and conveniently placed saltwater hot tub, the over-the-top equipped and spacious kitchen, and every bedroom and bathroom was super comfortable and kept us happy for a week together with a beautiful view of the forest and lake. - the Murphy Family

Amazing home. Lots of space and room for everyone. Host was very personable and that house was stocked with just about anything you could need. Would highly recommend for those with large families. We built four days of great memories in the home. Not a three minute walk to beach as mentioned on site however still convenient to get to water. Would definitely stay again.

A family favorite!

We have stayed at several different cabins in the Donner area. This cabin was by far the best! From the view, the floor plan, sleep options, and the best stocked kitchen we’ve ever had. We are already looking forward to our next trip!
