Driving
Traveling in the winter months can be difficult, depending on the weather. Heavy snow storms are not uncommon. All-wheel drive vehicles with all season tires are HIGHLY recommended for winter / spring months, and a back up set of chains isn’t a bad idea. Please check the weather and road conditions before traveling to and around the area. Bring water and snacks when driving in the Sierras!
Driveway parking can be somewhat difficult in the winter and its availability is really weather dependent, if there is a snowfall or not. we have a snowplow service that plows the driveway automatically, when it snows a few inches. There can be delays in getting the driveway plowed, so it is really recommended to have AWD and all season tires to get in and out of the driveway. Shovels are located in the garage, if you need them, but you shouldn’t if you have AWD.
Please remember, if it snows, you'll need to park your car in the garage. If there is snow on the driveway, it CANNOT be in the driveway. There is overhead storage in the garage for any roof boxes that you might have, as well as racks for snowboards and skis.
***Power outages are also common in the mountains during any season as from time to time, trees fall on power lines. This is something we cannot prevent nor control and is part of the possibility while renting in the mountains.
Donner Lake is a great nearby option to play in the water. The state park is open!
When its HOT!
There is a whole house fan that works really well in the early evening, when its starts to cool down outside, but it is still warm inside. The idea behind it is that it sucks warm air out of the house, from above a vent in the kitchen, which draws in cool air from the outside through the windows. Please use the Fan as it works the best and the fastest. The control is on the wall inside the Laundry room. There's a high / low speed, and a timer. When using the fan, make sure to open windows. The best way to cool things down, is to open the bedroom windows and turn on the fan, leaving the bedroom doors open. It should cool things down quickly.
If this is not working, please message me for additional help.
