Fabulous cabinWell appointedClose to all the amenitiesSuch as driving to the lake, hiking trails, biking trailsQuiet locationExcellent communication with owners!
The hosts were very welcoming and responsive when we were inquiring about availability and our stay. The cabin is beautifully appointed and my grandson absolutely went bonkers over the bunk beds!
We had an amazing time, we ran into a few hiccups but they were handled in a very timely manner. Lots of snow play area in the back which was perfect for the kids. We will definitely look into staying again in the future.
We love Truckee and this cabin did not disappoint. The house is very clean, comfy and well stoked. We had all the necessities. The location is the best!
We had the best time in this very cozy and well-equipped cabin. The beds were super cozy, we enjoyed afternoons by the fire, and we had great access to the slopes for skiing. We’ll definitely be back!
Our family had a wonderful time at the house. It was clean nicely decorated and well equipped. The host are gracious and genuinely nice people. We look forward to our return.
Cozy well equipped cabin. Nice layout, well stocked kitchen with lots of prep spaceRoom to gather/relax, nice outdoor patio Conveniently located close to all the fun things to do in Tahoe Donner/TruckeeHiking trail right behind the cabin, few min drive to the lake, close to downtown Thank you for sharing your property, we hope to stay again soon!
We had a great time. Just the right size space for the family, parents, 2 elementary school kids and our teenage nephew. We had everything we needed in the house, well stocked kitchen, plenty of pillows and blankets. Great yard for the kids to run around in the snow. Can’t wait to stay here again.
Excellent rental. Owners very helpful/communicative. Roomier/nicer than the photos show. Very clean, well stocked, great location, easy access in the snow. Overall 👍
We just spent the weekend here, two adult adults and seven, six, and five-year-old, and had an absolutely great time.We were looking for a place where we could just play in the snow around the property, without having to do the work of taking those kids to a resort. There’s a ton of open forest space behind the home, and the kids just spent all day back there exploring and playing.The unit itself was clean, well appointed and had everything we needed. Absolutely plan to stay here again one day.
I own Tanners Marketplace antique shows in Reno. I promote antique and craft shows. We put on an antique show at the Truckee High school and needed a place for us and our helpers to stay. The house worked out very well. It was close and with the nice kitchen we could cook our meals and not have to eat out all the time. The house was furnished comfortably and was just perfect for us.
Thank you.

This house is perfectly located if you want to explore North Tahoe. It is minutes from the ski area, cross country and summer activity center. Maria is a wonderful responsive host and went out of her way to resolve our one problem during our stay. This house is not a sleek modern minimalist place. It is a warm, comfortable house with absolutely everything you may need. The kitchen is better equipped than mine at home and her laundry and supply room is well stocked with labels and information. There is a roomy garage and even snowshoes available. The big downhill ski areas are probably 25 minutes drive and all the stores and restaurants of Truckee about 10 minutes. We would (and will) stay here again in a heartbeat.
Very clean and well kept cabin. Has everything you need to enjoy a nice vacation. Great neighborhood and we enjoyed our weekend getaway. Highly recommend.
We enjoyed our stay in this short-term rental very much. Beautiful quiet scenery, loved the cabin decoration and home feel to it, as well as that we already had in place some items to protect our toddler from running down the stairs. Very family friendly and contained all essential amenities. We scored 4/5 mostly because of 2 things: we found several spiderwebs in the windows inside the house and there was some miscommunication related to the checkout. We tried our best to leave everything clean and requested but failed to see the latest msg on chat since we were expecting an email similarly to the initial communication thread. These were minor points , but everything was nice and clean. One last thing to mention is that we did not find the clicker to open the garage near the key holders -but we did find a covid rapid test and hand sanitizer which we thought was a good small gesture that we appreciated it. Overall we highly recommend this stay and we would likely book it again in the future. Thank you for a lovely stay!
This cabin is well maintained, tastefully furnished with quality appliances, and fully appointed throughout. The kitchen is well stocked and the feel of the cabin is warm and cozy.
We really enjoyed our stay here. It was a cozy cabin with everything we needed and then some. Both the location (close to family friendly skiing and downtown Truckee) and hosts were great! We would love to come back for another stay.
We had a great stay at the cabin and were so impressed by how clean it was and how easy it was to check in and find. It is only about 20 min away from Tahoe Donner Ski Ranch where our kids tried skiing for the first time. The cabin checked all the boxes and even allowed us to bring along our pandemic puppy--we couldn't have been happier!
An amazing week in Tahoe Donner. The house was clean, organized, and VERY well stocked with pots/pans/dishes/utensils. We were still working/learning remotely and the internet held up for all of us working concurrently. The backyard was a great extended snow-play area. We enjoyed the house's convenient location to the Tahoe Donner ski area and the guest card discounts (what a great additional perk). The owners were easy to work with and very responsive. A couple of notes that didn't have an impact on our overall stay: The downstairs bedrooms were a little cold, but our kids seemed fine with the heavy comforters. We also used the linens in the house, so the checkout process felt unmanageable for the amount of laundry we needed to do with the sheets/towels per instructions (but we managed). BOTTOM LINE: A wonderful week in Tahoe and a great house/host.
