The host was very communicative and responsive. Easy flat driveway. I like that the house was set back from the street. Living spaces and bedrooms were spacious. A no-frills home, but we were comfortable

Wonderful home by a wonderful host

Due to the floods and heavy snow, our host was super understanding with our travel situation. We loved our stay and the owner was so kind in helping us answering our questions. The home had a cabin vibe and was very clean. Loved it here!

This cabin has been semi updated and is accurate to the pictures posted. It had tons of snow to play in and was in a great location close to shopping, parks, and restaurants. The house was clean and the host was very responsive about any questions. The kitchen had enough things to cook with and there was extra bedding in the house. It’s not super fancy but a great spot for family and dog friendly. You will need to bring shampoo, conditioner and a hair dryer. The beds were very firm in all the rooms, we plan to come back and will probably bring toppers. Great cabin for the price and location and host was very nice.

Property was great and clean. Only 2 things was we couldn’t figure out the fire place even with instructions and no lights in the front when coming in. Other than that we enjoyed the place and would return.

Perfect Basecamp

This was a perfect basecamp for our group. Big kitchen for home cooking, relaxing open floor plan. Single story was great for guests with limited mobility. Garage was priceless during the big snow storm. Easy access to mountain fun and Truckee shopping/dining. We will definitely stay again! Owners were extremely responsive and gracious hosts.

The cabin was lovely with many upgrades installed. The hosts were very accommodating, helping us with some special requests due to our old age. The only “disappointment” was that we thought that the cabin, due to the picture, was a bit more private. Certainly not a big deal.

Amazing

Beautiful atmospheric cabin, very cabin-y, kitchen had all we needed, bathrooms appear renovated recently, spacious garage for 2 cars, wide comfy driveway. Paintings / pictures everywhere were very enjoyable, even took photos of them:) loved french vintage armchairs!! Lots of space around the house itself for kids to play in snow no steep areas. Would love to stay there again!

Summer Solstice in Truckee

House was great. Spacious, great kitchen. Bedrooms were big and mattresses comfy. Nice bathrooms. Enough towels, sheets, pillows, and blankets. Just wish there was some patio furniture on the back deck to sit outside. Also it was a little confusing on how to turn on the fireplace. Otherwise we would come back again.

Spacious cabin in Northwoods neighborhood of Truckee

The property was clean and spacious for our group of adults. The kitchen was well equipped and functional The owner provided ample description and pictures ahead of time of the snow around the area and potential challenges with arrival and getting around. We ended up having great weather and no issues getting in. Big thanks to everyone who had been shoveling to maintain the path through feet of snow!

Great place to stay for the price

Overall, we were very happy with the stay. The cabin is in a great location, clean and comfortable. This was especially important because we were snowed in for 2 days! The only issue was iciness on the raised pathway and steps from the garage to the house. However, David was extremely responsive. I think the fault actually lies with the property management company. It’s also a very snowy year.

Great location and comfy stay for a family weekend.

We had a wonderful time at this property. The neighborhood is well-maintained and there was one guest pass for us to use. If you’re planning on doing laundry be sure to bring your own detergent. The only part of the stay that I would recommend you are aware of is that the garage is at the front of the property and the house is in the back and it is detached. I did slip and fall on the ice a few times so please be careful When going back-and-forth to the house if it has been snowing. Other than that it was a great property with tons of board games and books and comfy sitting space. The kids loved the bunk room!

We refilled the laundry detergent and will ensure it is stocked. Sorry about the slip, we will work to clear the path from the garage to the house.

Clean up the yard

This place can be super. It is definitely in need of some TLC. The yard had broken flower pots with no flowers, the snow poles were still in and broken trees were laying on their side. Other then 2 chairs in front of the house. There was no outdoor furniture for the back deck, with a little time it could be much nicer.

Clean, convenient, comfortable home

We had a lovely stay here in Feb 2025. The home is very clean, with plenty of extra bedding and new towels. The kitchen and bathrooms look like they’ve been updated fairly recently, and the open and airy kitchen/living room area was great for our family. It’s in a quiet neighborhood near Tahoe Donner ski resort, and there was plenty of space in the yard for the kids to play in the snow. There is a large primary bedroom suite with several large windows, but there are no window treatments so no privacy, and I can imagine it’s annoying if you’re trying to sleep past 6am in the summer. And I will say that the beds are VERY firm, so maybe bring mattress toppers if that’s not your preference. The home isn’t fancy, but it’s nice and clean and comfortable and I would stay there again.
