We had a great stay here in early January. The cabin was very clean and comfortable. Plenty of clean linens and lots of closet space. The living area was cozy and the kitchen had everything you need. Very close to skiing/snowplay at Tahoe Donner and sledding at Glacier Way. We would definitely come back!

Host was friendly. They made it known they were watching the cameras at the property when we first arrived with a weird welcome text. House was very clean, very cozy, and the yard games were a lot of fun. Would stay here again.

Easiest Check-in ever

Easiest Check-in ever

Superior property - everything clean with great instructions on how to use everything. 2 bedrooms 1 bath down and 1 bedroom and bath up, as well as a loft with more beds (and a paceman machine) on the second floor. So there is lots of room. The driveway is a little steep but not difficult. Once you are parked, it is a short walk to the front door with NO stairs to get to the main floor.. The electronic lock was the easiest to use ever. The kitchen was well equipped, the beds comfortable with extra blankets and pillows that we didn't need because of a heat wave (82 degrees during the day). But because we were at 6,000 ft +, we were very comfortable at night even without A/C. It was a perfect time to enjoy the Tahoe area.

Great family ski trip

Great family ski trip

We got lucky with some late season snow. Kelvin kept us up to date with pictures of snow conditions at the house. We had an easy time getting to the house, and it was easy to get to Palisades and back for a day of skiing. Kelvin was helpful throughout our trip, and we definitely hope to stay again!

Great place with amazing hosts!

Great place with amazing hosts!

My family and I went up to spend Christmas in Tahoe. There were 9 adults, 2 kids, and an old fur baby. It was a spacious place where we all had a comfortable spot to sleep. Fireplace was nice and cozy. Lots of kitchen tools, which I think is convenient. Everyone enjoyed the Pac-Man game! There was a ton of snow so we had a good time in the front driveway building snowman’s and turning the driveway into a small sledding hill. FYI the driveway is a slight downgrade to get to the house. They had a lot off helpful things that we needed like shovels for the snow, snow melt, saucers to go sledding! It was great. There’s also a nearby trail (walking distance) where we went snowshoeing. That was super convenient as we didn’t have to drive anywhere. Tahoe donner is also super close by. Unfortunately, due to the weather the power went out so it had to close and we couldn’t go. We got caught in the winter storm and couldn’t leave the day we were scheduled to leave. Luckily when we reached out to Kelvin we were able to stay longer. He wanted nothing more than for us to be safe and did everything he could to help make that happen. It was a huge relief knowing we had a place to stay! There were unfortunate incidents (out of everyone’s control) like power outages and internet being down due to the storm, but throughout our trip, which turned into an “adventure”, Kelvin was an absolute amazing host! He was incredibly responsive and tried to help in any and all possible ways. With everyone stressed out given the storm and our circumstances it was such a relief to know that we were able to depend on Kelvin for help and suggestions. You can’t go wrong staying here and as Kelvin as your host!!

A true gem in Tahoe Donner

A true gem in Tahoe Donner

My friends and I loved staying at Kelvin's cabin for a ski weekend. Kelvin was a great communicator and was quick to spring into action when we had a minor issue. The house itself is cozy and convenient. Wood stove was perfect to cuddle around after a long day on the slopes. We'll be back for sure!

Great cabin!

Great cabin!

This cabin sets up so well for a large family or two families. So many beds. Lots of attention to details. Property was very clean when we arrived. The Pac-man game was the star of the weekend for adults and kiddos alike! Air quality during our trip was horrendous, so we spent most of our time in the cabin and it was great. Lots of games to play. We will definitely be back.

Perfect place for a family vacation

Perfect place for a family vacation

My wife, daughter, sister in law, her husband and son and dogs thoroughly enjoyed our stay at the house. Sat on the deck for dinner every night, enjoying quiet evenings relaxing together after hiking in the mornings, spending most days at Donner lake relaxing, kayaking and sailing. Love the proximity of the house to truckee and Donner lake, away from the hustle and bustle of lake Tahoe. Having guest passes to donner lake marina was great. Communication with owner was great, received email from him the day before arriving, with details about getting into the house and things we should know. Likewise, received email day before checking out on details for checking out. Will definitely rent this house again next time.

Knotty Pine

Knotty Pine

Our group of 7 adults had the pleasure of staying at Knotty Pine for two nights. (Friday and Saturday) The first thing I want to mention is the great communication from Kelvin and Carol. They explained everything so well, offered suggestions for our visit and even offered to let us use their raft for our annual river float. The home is a great location. Close to the amenities of Truckee-Donner-Squaw and Tahoe, but a world away with its privacy. Pulling in to the driveway it is obvious the attention to detail they put into maintaining their home and making it comfortable for guests. Inside, this place is CLEAN! If you tried, you would not find an area that was not clean, neat and organized. As a professional Chef I was especially pleased with the kitchen appliances, wide array of quality pots, pans and utensils. The living room is so inviting with the huge TV and viewing options. The three bedrooms are all large with very comfy beds and bedding, Lots of room to lay out your clothes and personal belongings. The upstairs loft is great! I imagine it would be the choice hangout for younger kids. My personal favorite place to relax is the huge front deck. There is a massive back deck as well that one of the couples enjoyed for its privacy. Checking in and out was simple and easy. I am sure that we will stay here again. Hopefully for more days!

BEST HOST EVER!!!

BEST HOST EVER!!!

Kelvin and Carol are the most warmest host I have ever come across in all these years of renting through VRBO. They responded to my queries promptly and provided lots of information about things to do in and around the area. They even left goodies for our kids to enjoy! They have everything one might need to make a vacation memorable. The location of the house is also quite convenient to all major attractions. The house was clean and the kitchen was well stocked. We had a great time and would definitely be coming back!! Thanks again Kelvin and Carol for your warm hospitability!!
