We had an amazing time at the Whistlewood house! We are local but rented it to accommodate ourselves and a large group of family & friends coming in from all over the country for my husband’s military retirement. The neighborhood is beautiful, quiet, and high end. Many of our guests were surprised to find such a beautiful spot in Reno. The home is spacious and accommodated a huge group with room to spare. It was clean, cozy, and full of everything we needed to cook large meals and enjoy ourselves. We were also pleasantly surprised at the last minute to find we could bring our dogs for a nominal extra fee, so we cancelled our boarding reservation and they enjoyed the weekend with us. Highly recommend this property and Rick and his team. Thanks for a great time!

We had a great vacation in this large Reno house, located in a lovely neighborhood. We especially enjoyed the game room. Rick was wonderful and very accommodating.

The house was very clean and beautiful throughout the property. It has a pool table for entertainment and the property managers were thorough on the walk through and very easy to communicate with. I would without a doubt stay here again

A good situation for my group of eight. The entertainment room with the pool table was used a lot.

The area around the house is beautiful and well kept.

The property was in a prime neighborhood and location, just a couple of easy miles from the major Casinos. The house was very comfortable for the 12 of us, especially the large dinning room table and the game room, and beautifully furnished and decorated. The kitchen was fully stocked with everything we needed, including coffee. Bedrooms quite adequate and comfortable. One disappointment was with the back yard. I specifically asked if it was a wood or gas fired Fire Pit, and got the reply that it was wood fired but that they were going to convert it to gas. I then asked if firewood was provided, and got a negative response. We therefore hauled 3 nights of firewood with us and were very fortunate to have good weather, and looked forward BBQ-ing and dinning out on the patio in front of a roaring fire. Turns out they had just started the gas conversion and the pit was unusable with wood. We were informed that their Maintenance Man would see if either the conversion could be completed, or the gas fixture removed for wood use. Unfortunately we never heard back and were forced to take all our meals inside, and were unable to enjoy the cold nights in the back yard. Just as well maybe, as the BBQ was filthy and I was not interested in cleaning up after someone else. Our only other disappointment was with the TV's. There were plenty of them, in the bedrooms and exceptionally large ones in the Living room and Game room, but we were never able to get the one in the game room to work. All TV's had 2 to 3 remotes, and with 5 kids we ended up spending a considerable amount of time trying to keep them working, even with 7 adults very familiar, of course, with the issues involved. We suggest getting Universal Remotes, one for each set, to avoid the frustration.

This house has amazing views. The beds were very comfortable. We the layout of the house is great, there is room for everyone to have privacy. Rick Strode was very easy to work with, and really accommodated our schedule. We would definitely book again.

There are so many wonderful reasons why this should be your first and only consideration for a vacation rental in Reno. Rick and Mandy are an absolute dream to work with during the whole process. Many vacation rentals have a firm set of rules and cleaning that needs to be taken care during your stay. Our check-in and check-out was a breeze and they were accommodating and flexible. The house was absolutely gorgeous. Usually, in mountain towns, you get stuck on a hard spring mattress from 20 years ago but all the beds in the house had upgraded memory foam making all your guests feel rested and comfortable. Aside from the luxury within the house, you get breathtaking views of the mountains and you are a short uber/lyft to downtown areas. The raley's nearby has all the yummy snacks and food you could possibly need for your stay as well. We would love to come back and visit with any of our friends for a relaxing weekend getaway in the future. I highly recommend staying at any one of Rick's amazing properties. When it comes to hospitality and customer service you can tell how serious they take there guests. Enjoy your future stay!

This is a beautiful home in a very nice neighborhood. We had a large group in town for my sons graduation from UNR and it accommodated every one. Rick was very attentive and made sure I had everything that I needed. This house doesn't disappoint!! It is very comfortable just like home. We actually ended up extending our stay and Rick was very helpful with that process. If I am ever in Reno for an extended amount of time this will be my first choice. Thanks again Rick and Mandy for everything... Danielle

Had a great time

Rick was great. To no fault of his, but the housekeeper missed a few things, but all I had to do was text him one time and he had the housekeeper contact me and the issue was resolved. The only thing I would say Rick needs to do is update the 2nd Master, all other beds had memory mattresses/toppers except the 2nd Master. The bed was way too hard, if he changes that that would really make it a 6 Star

The property was great!

Great

We stayed here for a work project in Reno. This was the perfect place to stay for my group to enjoy in luxury. Plenty of space and a full functioning kitchen. The view was truly incredible! Thank you Rick for all of your help!

First off the house was amazing! Super clean and well furnished! It’s located an uber ride from downtown and minutes from grocery stores. Rick was really quick to respond and was great at communicating all of the ins and outs of the house. He even gave some great local places to visit. Thanks Rick.
