Thank you for such a comfortable and well equipped home. We used the snow saucers and damaged one, which we replaced. All towels are washed and I think you’ll enjoy how nicely we left your house.

Cozy snow getaway
Cozy snow getaway
The house was perfect for our little family of three. Child and I had a lot of fun sledding down the hill in the back. Guests from other houses were coming to the back of this house to sled and play as well. I am not sure if this is common in the neighborhood or we got unlucky … There are many houses in the area, so you won’t feel like you are away from it all but it is easy to get to and the house was well appointed. Everything was as described. Kitchen is updated and very nice. We made a lot of yummy meals. There aren’t food delivery options, so you should be prepared to cook meals or go into town in Truckee. Safeway is about a mile away for grocery shopping. The wood stove looked cool but we didn’t use it. Bathrooms are small and not updated but we wanted two working toilets, and shower and toilets worked well. Beds were very comfortable. The property owner was very responsive, friendly, and helpful. Master bedroom had room darkening curtains. Not many vacation rentals have this, so we appreciated it. Other rooms have light filtering shades. We enjoyed our stay.

We enjoyed this house for our two families. It was perfect for our group size, and had everything we needed. The kids even enjoyed the sleds out back! Highly recommend this house for a ski weekend.

The Snowiest Truckee Stay Ever
The Snowiest Truckee Stay Ever
Sooooo much snow!!! St Johns Rest was perfect for a white Christmas. The hill in the back yard was great to keep the kids and some adults busy during the snowiest winter we’ve ever seen. The house had games for the kids on their breaks from snow and the kitchen had necessities for family meals. The snow plow came by daily to help keep roads and drive way clear (had to shovel in front of the garage which is no problem). Ed (the owner) was easy to contact when I had any questions (which was many). Only down side, there were a few neighbors from up the road (not sure if they were visitors like us or actual residents) trying to slide down the sledding hill that we worked hard to dig out and maintain with all the snow we had. While we were there, we had about 3-4 feet of snow. Mahalo for a great winter :)

Great stay in extremely comfortable home.
Great stay in extremely comfortable home.
The property is perfect for 2 couples or families and has plenty of sleeping space for everyone. My children loved the bunk beds and all of the toys that the owner allows guests to use that are his grandchildren's. The new BBQ grill on the big deck is amazing and we BBQ'd quite often. The property is well apportioned with all necessary utensils and oils and spices for cooking which is great as we ate there often. The owner Ed is extremely friendly and attentive and even shared ideas on spots for us to take the kids to swim, hike, and play. Overall great experience and we will be returning.

St. John's Rest did not Dissapoint!
St. John's Rest did not Dissapoint!
Our 2nd stay at St. John's Rest proved to be just as enjoyable, if not more enjoyable, than our first. The cleanliness and cozy comfort of the home, convenience of a backyard filled with snow, comfy beds, fully stocked kitchen, variety of toys and games - all of this contributed to yet another wonderful stay. We can't wait to stay again next winter!
