Great stay!

We had a great stay here in February 2024. It was plenty of space for our family of four with two small kids and grandparents. There were plenty of towels and blankets as well as kitchen supplies. The pots and pans are old and very used, but we made it work. The driveway is very steep, but we managed even with snow throughout our stay. We loved being able to walk down to the lake, stay cozy on the couch, and share meals together.

Beautiful start to the new year

Lovely, clean and comfortable home. Located a block off Donner lake and close to downtown Truckee and skiing. Kitchen is well stocked and beds are very comfortable. Relaxing evenings for drinking wine, playing games ( there are quite a few oldies but goodies). Overnight snow but a plow came and cleared driveway in the morning! Nice to have a garage to park in and close enough to walk to a small market with a great wine selection and a breakfast joint next door. Looking forward to staying there again!
