Nice cabin with lake view. Very large with room for everyone. Downside: 3 flights of stairs to front door. Made taking things in and out a pain especially since we are seniors. Quiet with some street noise during the day. Except for stairs, I'd go back.

The view was incredible! We saw deer in the yard and access to the lake was great.

We brought two of our grandchildren - 14 year old boy and 9 year old girl. We all had a great time. We walked down the back to the docks and skipped rocks, laughed and had a blast. They fished off the dock and the 14 year old caught 2 fish! We threw them back as they were still growing. Great location - we went to the State beach and it was awesome! The house was very accommodating and cozy. It did not have "games" as stated, but we figured it out. Loved the kitchen - the range is killer! the biggest downfall (which we dealt with) was the stairs. You have to haul all you stuff down 4 small flights of stairs and back up!! Thank goodness for the 14 year old, LOL. It was a great trip.

The house is a little older, if you’re seeking something new and updated this isn’t it HOWEVER, the house is much bigger than pictured and had everything that we needed for the trip. We went to spend time in Tahoe and Truckee so we weren’t home a lot so it didn’t matter that the house isn’t updated. It’s right on the water, and local staff was incredible. Lots of stairs, so - get ready to get some steps in. :) the home was perfect for us and Truckee is a hidden gem of the area. Perfect for a summer get away on the lake!

Great little cabin with a beautiful view of the lake from both decks and the family room. The kids had a blast and had a lot of fun sleeping in built in bunk beds. Also an easy walk out the back down to the lake and docks

Accurate listing, perfect for our needs this trip. Shout out to Customer Service/Guest Experience for helping us find this home when our first one fell through. It was just two of us, so we only stayed on one floor of the house. Had everything we could have needed and views were great.

Overall I will say we had a pleasant stay. Positives: It was a great location and the view was beautiful. The weather was great so we found the deck a pleasant place to spend time. Though the place is dated it had a new oven and a small gas grill which was a nice surprise. Negatives: It took getting used to being comfortable showering in front of huge windows with no curtain. It is a great view but it just felt awkward facing out front especially for my two 20yr old girls. Also, there is only one proper shower. The master bathroom has a large jacuzzi tub with hand held shower that does not extend to standing height. Meaning you need to be sitting or in my case kneeling to use. Lastly, though I am sure things were clean, there were a lot of stains on the carpet and towels and scuff marks on the walls . Suggestions: they may want to consider getting a tension rods and curtains for the bathroom windows that guests could choose to put up or not. At least give the option. Throw out the toaster, it looks like it caught on fire . Conclusion: Once we got used the place it felt comfortable and I would stay again .

Very relaxing stay at this tranquil cabin. Loved chilling out in the family room after a long day on the slopes. Beds are comfortable, and lots of pots and pans for cooking breakfast and dinner before and after a day of skiing!
