We enjoyed our stay. The house was clean and well stocked. It was nice to have shampoo, conditioner, and body wash in the showers. A supply of zip locks to pack lunches for skiing. We enjoyed relaxing by the fireplace and there were plenty of cozy blankets to cuddle up. Recommend.

This cabin exceeded all our expectations for a mountain getaway! It perfectly captures the cozy, rustic Truckee vibe while offering fantastic modern comfort.The location was ideal—tucked away enough to feel secluded and peaceful, surrounded by beautiful pine trees, yet only a quick drive to Historic Downtown Truckee, Donner Lake, and the golf courses.The cabin itself was spotless, beautifully decorated, and felt so welcoming.The kitchen was fully equipped, making meals easy, and the beds were very comfortable.Communication with the host was excellent—easy check-in and they were very responsive. This is, without a doubt, a place we'd recommend to anyone looking for the ultimate Truckee cabin experience. We can't wait to come back!

We had a very nice stay at this property, clean, quiet and good communication with host. There a small issues that need to be dealt with (water in frig was terrible because filter has t been changed in a looong time, all bedrooms were dark because a number of lights didn’t work, shower in master dripped and blinds in that room also didn’t work, etc)…little stuff a maintenance man should attend to but overall we were pleased with our stay.

All of the guests were very happy with our stay. All the amenities were as described. Nicely equipped kitchen. The only thing I would change is to provide a more adult friendly mattress for one of the twin beds, it was too soft and small for a full grown adult.

5 day Getaway

This house was the gift that kept on giving! It’s huge and had everything we needed (coming all the way from Iowa). There was only 3 adults but it easily can handle two big families. Had all the amenities we needed and a place for everyone to go and relax even if you wanted your own space. It truly was very nice and VERY spacious!! Beds comfortable/kitchen had great accessories and useful amenities. Close to everything Truckee and Lake Tahoe. We were so happy with this VRBO and the price was very reasonable. Thank you to the owner for sharing your home!! We thoroughly enjoyed our stay!!

Fun Pre-Christmas Visit!

This is a lovely property that was set up very nicely for an "Early Christmas Celebration" with family members! We had 4 adults, a 4-year-old and a 2-year-old. Plenty of welcoming spaces and lots of amenities. Just note that the "play room" is separate from the rest of the main house (in case you have 'littles' who need supervising). The back yard is the perfect set up for snow play! Communication with property manager was stellar, as there were a couple of tiny glitches that needed clearing up. They even allowed us early check-in, which was much appreciated! Would love to have had larger beds, but that was the only real complaint. Looking forward to the next time we get to visit!

This cabin was a perfect fit for our family weekend. The cabin was clean, spacious and quaint just like the listing says. The additional play space for kids was a big hit :) The location was so convenient to eat, shop and do activities. The owners/management even let us check in early at no extra charge - a huge courtesy that made our entire weekend! Overall, a great experience from booking to checking out, I highly recommend and would stay again.
