Nice weekend getaway

This is the third time our two families have stayed at Julie’s property in Tahoe Donner! We adore her house, it is so welcoming and clean, we were 3 adults and 5 kids ranging from 8 to 14 plus a dog! I had a question for Julie when we arrived and she got right back to me! The house is great, we love cooking big dinners or playing games at the dining table w a fire, there’s plenty of wood! There are sleds which we usually just take out back and with so much snow this year we had some great snow showshoeing out the back door! Thanks Julie!

We had a lovely weekend stay on a trip to introduce our kids to skiing at Tahoe Donner Downhill Ski resort. The host was responsive and flexible. A later checkout time allowed us an extra day of skiing before we left (young kids, so a day = ~1 hour of skiing). Our kids loved the bunk beds, as well as the selection of board games and card games available in the house. The driveway is tricky in heavy snow, so you’ll definitely want AWD and appropriate tires (as required in the agreement). The upside is that our kids got a bit of sledding in on the driveway. We’d definitely stay here again. (And Tahoe Donner Downhill is a lovely place for new skiers.)

Great place in Truckee! The house is very comfortable and very well equipped. Location is great!

This is a very cute and cozy cabin. The wood stove is really great in the winter and helps heat the house nicely. Everything was clean and the kitchen was well stocked. The street was nice and quiet, and great for walking the dog. My kids had a ball trudging through the (insanely deep!) snow and finding sledding hills. We appreciated the games, the wifi worked great and the TV had a lot of options. We really enjoyed our stay here and hope to come back again!

Julie’s property was clean, comfortable and in a great location. We visit Donner at least once per year and this cabin was our favorite. The cabin is well equipped with all the comforts of home. The games and books were a nice addition. Our family enjoyed a relaxing stay. Julie is communicative, available and responsive. We hope to visit again. Thank you Julie!

Great house and location!

We really enjoyed the property and location! Only thing I could recommend is to bring a portable fan or 2. We were there in July and it gets stuffy at night.

Cute and quaint little house. Backed up to open space, so quiet. We loved staying in the Tahoe Donner neighborhood. Was a little smaller than we thought but we still enjoyed our time.

We enjoyed our time at this property! Great, cozy cabin appointed with everything we needed. Nice location near downtown Truckee and short drive to ski slopes.

Really cozy and clean cabin. Perfect location with all the comforts of home. Would definitely stay there again.

Property was as described. Great location hiking Tahoe Donner area. Owner was very responsive and answered all of our questions.

Perfect place to take my son for his spring break to play in the snow and snowboard. Everything was advertised

This was a cozy, well appointed cabin. The woodstove was lovely after a day out in the snow.

We had a wonderful time with our family of 5 and 2 dogs! It was such a great house, with plenty of space and different hang out spots for everyone to spread out. We enjoyed that it sat on a golf course (which was covered in snow). It was safe for our children and dogs to play in the backyard area and near the front of the house. We were lucky to get plenty of snow for building snowmen and for sledding. The driveway as easy to access with our minivan and the convenience of garage access was so nice!

Perfect layout for the family. Kids loved exploring all the space out back in the snow. No-one wanted to leave.

First, I have to say the owner Julie was amazing. She is absolutely a dream to work with, and so helpful!Here's the headline...the cabin is WONDERFUL!! The large decks in the front and back yard are a great place to relax, and the views are mad serine. The open kitchen, dining, and family rooms are inviting and spacious. You'll find the garage chocked full of wood, which we put to good use in the wood burning fireplace. The kitchen was well stocked with everything you would need for your family. There is ample board games at your disposal. You'll find the beds comfortable beyond belief after a hard day on the slopes proving to yourself that you're younger than your knees and back let on. And finally, the bunk room was a very nice set up for our 3 teens.

We found this cabin to be nice and cozy for a getaway for 4 adults and 4 children. Not pictured is a nice deck at the front of the house with comfy outdoor seating. The adults enjoyed a nice happy hour under the stars out there one night while the kids watched a movie inside. No complaints from anyone in our group, we all left talking about how we want to but a house in the neighborhood. Very convenient to Donner Lake and all the great things to do in Truckee. It was our first time in Truckee and we loved it!

We had a great Tahoe weekend using this very pleasant cabin as our home base. The house was very comfortable and clean. Great location within Tahoe Donner. The house is on a quiet street and my kids spent a lot of time skateboarding and riding their bikes out front. We also enjoyed being able to use the private beach area at Donner Lake.

A wonderful cabin on a great quiet street in Tahoe Donner. Our small group was so comfortable there and we had a wonderful visit. Setup of the cabin is great where we all had enough space and yet it's very cozy. Loved the sun in the front and back decks through out the day. The boys played video games in the loft while the we watched the great TV in the evening. Location is so nice, with a quick drive to the lake or the store. very good flow to the home and we felt so nice and relaxed, we hope to visit again soon, thank you!

Loved the dog friendly place! Great for a small group.

This house was the perfect layout for a family with kids, with comfortable bedrooms, plenty of seating and TVs and games. The open space behind the house was great for sledding and building a snowman. We had a great time!

Cabin is in a great location for Tahoe Donner. Lots of open space for kids to play outside in the snow. Close to many ski resorts. Close to downtown shops and restaurants. House was clean and as advertised. Check in and out process couldn’t be easier. Great communication from owner. Overall great experience.

Second time we have stayed here, and once again it didn't disappoint! It is a great house, very comfortable and easy to stay at. For 2 families with a combined 5 kids plus a dog it was perfect, thank you Julie for sharing your home. We loved the sleds and the board games, we had a super fun game night. And the kids LOVE the bunk bed room!

We stayed here four nights over Christmas with three adults and one dog. It is a very comfortable home. The kitchen is well stocked for feeding a larger group — plenty of plates, etc. for hosting dinner for eight. Also a range of cookware. Plenty of firewood and the stove heats the house up well. Only a few suggestions for improvement. The lightbulbs in several fixtures are on the dim side (40W), which was darker than we preferred. It may be fine for some, but it was hard to read in some places. Also, there is a Roku TV in the living room and the instructions in the book are for a different tv. Having never used a Roku TV (different than a Roku hooked up to a TV). I was embarrassed I could not find the volume control, which is on the side of the Roku remote; I kept looking for a separate TV remote. It would be helpful to have updated instructions in the book for the Roku TV.

I grew up going to Tahoe so I'm very familiar with the area. Tahoe Donner is a great family friendly place with lots of activities. Location is great to town. Lots of amenities. The cabin was clean and had plenty of fun games for the kids. 2 sets of bunk beds in one room is great for kids. Loft area to also spread out. Owners were very accommodating and responsive. Highly recommend staying here!

We had a wonderful time at this house. It has everything you need. It’s not right in town but a 10-15 minute drive. The owner was very responsive.

Great family home, comfortable and kitchen was well stocked. Kids enjoyed playing in the backyard.

Two families plus a dog stayed at Julie's charming cabin. Julie was very attentive prior to the trip and when I mistakenly dead bolted the front door, they were easy to get a hold of and so helpful, there was no stress, thank you! The cabin was clean and very comfortable (especially the beds). We loved hanging out the back in the snow, thank you for having sleds available for the kids! Easy to access all amenities! We would definitely stay here again. Thanks Julie

We stayed stayed 6 days and the house worked out great for us. Everything was clean and tidy, the rooms were comfy and the kitchen was fully stocked with plenty of dishes and cookware. We really enjoyed the peaceful mornings and evenings on both the front and back decks relaxing after hiking and lake days at Donnner Lake. We hope to come back in the winter for skiing. Owner is responsive and helpful.

Well stocked kitchen, comfy beds and everything was clean and tidy. It was a good space for our family’s weekend away. Julie was very responsive and replied to emails promptly.
