Our family of 3 adults and 2 kids really enjoyed our stay. Great location - quick drive to town for groceries or to the wonderful amenities offered by the Tahoe-Donner community. We really enjoyed the private beach, and swimming pools. The backyard was nice - you’re close to neighbors on either side, but they were quiet and everyone seemed friendly while waking our dogs. The kids couldn’t really play in the backyard as the small creek was a bit of a hazard as the greenery hid the water and safe steps to take. The kids clothes were also completely covered in small plant prongs so it was a task cleaning them all off before reentering the house. Between the house games, and community amenities though, the kids had more than enough entertainment. James was excellent with communication, and we also really appreciated the house binder that reiterated rules and FAQs. Everyone enjoyed their beds, except for the one located in the master bedroom closet. It’s an awkward location with minimal room on the sides of the bed so getting in and out wasn’t ideal nor was it very comfortable. We just switched up beds after the 1st night and all was good. Fully stocked Kitchen was awesome for cooking meals each day. The interior and exterior stairs were a bit difficult for us. Without having a non-slip tread, going up and down the wood steps to either get to bedrooms or to the main floor in socks was a little nerve-wracking. Our elderly dog rolled down them after slipping the 1st night so we just had to block them when not in use. A few of the exterior back stairs wiggled so we would all just took ‘em slowly. The top and bottom decks were definitely not wiped down prior to our arrival. Excessive cobwebs, thick layer of dirt on surfaces with tree branches and leaves. Our 13year just made a couple bucks by spending an hour sweeping down everything so we could enjoy dinner outside the 1st night. If we were to vacation in the area again, I would definitely consider staying here again. Thank you very much for the memories James.

The property was clean and spacious. The kitchen had all the essentials, measuring cups, coffee maker and grinder. The beds were comfortable and the linens were soft. Responses were quick. Would definitely recommend and stay again. We were able to keep the kids highly entertained at the house and didn’t even need to take them to the snow park or resorts

We really enjoyed our stay. Very clean and had everything we wanted. James was excellent at timely communication and accommodating us.

Great property with enough space for our group of 10 to spread out or come together for activities, and was very well cleaned.

While the property is part of a larger mountain residential development, it's setting is mostly private and serene. It was a perfect retreat for us to gather family from several households and provide not just beds for everyone to stay under one roof, but also plenty of room to spread out for individual conversations as well as a big gathering room for meals and games. It was a perfect layout to accommodate all 12 of us!

From the reservation, to accommodating a date change, to giving us phone numbers to reach them for any issues, to understanding when my husband mistakenly packed a blanket and tea kettle that looked just like ours but were theirs, the owners could not have been more helpful. The house is clean and has everything you could want. Extra blankets and pillows in bedrooms, throw blankets in the living room, a heating system that worked perfectly, a well appointed kitchen (including coffee bean grinder and pour over equipment! How many rental homes have that??). Dishwasher and washer/dryer worked well with soap for your use. The hot tub worked perfectly. The shuffleboard game was a total hit. We played game after game after game with our tween son and his friend. There are plenty of board games and books too. The location in Tahoe Donner is 8 minutes from downtown Truckee and 15-20 minutes to both Sugar Bowl and Northstar ski areas. Room for one car and all your ski or cycling gear in the garage. We would definitely stay here again!
