When booking this house I was struck by the number of reviewers who said they would return - or have returned - to the house. Now I see why. Everything about this rental is top-notch; it's spacious, spotless, well appointed with a great location. I'll definitely stay again.

We had a quick weekend trip up to this home to celebrate my mom and SILs birthdays and we had a wonderful stay. We chose this home because it looked really nice in the photos, but it’s even better in person! It’s so beautiful and it has a great layout and is so spacious! The house was easy to get to and the guide the owner sent prior to our stay had very clear instructions for everything. The binder and labeling in the house were both really handy as well. Access to the garage and the door codes worked every time (I’ve stayed in a few others where we’d the code wouldn’t work consistently and it was frustrating, so this was a plus). The deck is really nice and it’s so peaceful out there with lots of shade. We didn’t use the passes to the amenities, but we did have dinner at The Lodge on the golf course and it was amazing too. It’s only a quick 2 hour drive from home, but we’d definitely stay here again!

We really enjoyed staying at this beautiful home. The beds were comfy, and everyone enjoined the gathering spaces. My kids very much appreciated the game room. The kitchen was very well stocked. The owner was very responsive when we had an issue with the internet. Overall, it was a great property. We hope to stay here again in the summer.

We loved our stay and will be on the lookout to stay here again. We were two families (4 adults, 4 kids, ages from 9-12). We skiied at Diamond Peak and Donner, and sledded at Donner, using the guest pass. It was really nice to have the guest pass - Donner skiing was open only to members when we went.
Sleeping.
The kids loved the bunk bed and rotated so that three of them got a turn on the top. A full size, the lower bunk is not enough room for two big kids to sleep comfortably together, so one kid slept on the couch between the bedrooms downstairs. There is a pullout sofabed upstairs, but the kids did not try it. Adults slept comfortably in the king and queen. The king has memory foam and down toppers, which was particularly comfortable. The queen did not. Everyone liked the fleece sheets.
Fireplaces.
There gas fireplaces in the master bedroom and the living room are lovely and warm. With the nest heat, they were more for ambiance than heat.
Kitchen.
Nice appliances and basic equipment/ utencils. Very comfortable to cook/ be in. Decent spice rack for a rental. The owner let us dig out the propane grill which had been winterized, which was perfect.
Entertainment.
Kids loved the game room and we all had fun snuggling in front of the fire watching dvds.
Communication.
The owner responded fast, was helpful, and fair. He warned us in advance of an internet problem, gave us a chance to cancel (we did not), and worked with us to get the problem fixed.
Strongly recommend!

This is a fantastic property. It is newly remodeled, well laid out, and spacious, with wonderful amenities, games, and electronics. It has a flat driveway and a great 2-car garage. Mark, the host, was very accommodating and responsive. It is a short drive to Tahoe-Donner and a short drive to downtown Truckee. We would stay here again.

This home checked all the boxes for our family! Great layout, lots of space for 2, even 3 families to stay comfortably. Extremely clean and well appointed with everything you will need for a comfortable stay. The owner is very responsive and provides clear instructions for everything in the home. Hands down the best property we have rented in the area, and we have stayed many different places. We absolutely will stay again!

Wonderful stay in a well-stocked brand new home. It was definitely a home-away from home. We had 3 small children with us, and 4 adults. Plenty of space to each have a place for quiet and peace. The cleanliness was one of the cleanest VRBO's I've ever rented, so I was extremely pleased. Location was near all Donnor's ameneties, and close drive to downtown truckee for restaurants and shopping. Thank. you for. having us, and we look forward to renting with you again in your lovely home.

We booked this property to get away with our kids to the snow (4 adults and 4 kids). The photos do not do this house justice. The house is very clean, updated and comfortable to stay in. There are several different living areas and the game room was great for the kids and adults, especially the air hockey table! The beds are very comfortable and warm and the bathrooms even had heated floors. All the instructions were easy to follow and Mark was very responsive if we had any questions. Great sledding for little kids in the backyard and close to downtown. Would highly recommend this place to anyone looking for a beautiful place to get away. Will most definitely return in the future!
