5/5 Excellent

Fantastic all-weather cabin!

"We rented this cabin to ski at Sugar Bowl, which had some bad weather that cut our days short. The cabin is so fun on its own, with a hot tub, internet, games and a wonderful backyard with giant granite boulders we made into mini sledding hills. The creek was running high since we had melting snow and was very pretty. Great beds and heating. A few minor cooking items missing we could work around. We need to come in summer too!"

Like something out of a fairytale

"From the moment you walk in, the views will take your breath away! Every angle of this home, every view, every living/sleeping area, is so very beautiful, picturesque and cozy. Love the open main living area, with comfortable seating, big kitchen and lovely dining room table. A huge plus was the wood burning fireplace, you don’t see those as often anymore and we loved having a warm, fresh fire everyday especially with the blankets of snow outside. The home is within walking distance to Donner Lake and a short drive to downtown historic Truckee. The host didn’t miss a beat and was so very kind/professional! I shared many photos on my personal social media page of our vacation (views from the home) and received over a dozen requests for the link! Book it, you won’t regret it."

Beautiful views

"We really enjoyed this property. Sitting by the fire looking at the lake was amazing. It does get cold in winter. The fact that there was no tv made it a million times better. I would stay here again."

Fantastic stay at Minglewood!

"We were extremely happy with our visit to Minglewood. The location is great, and the home is warm and welcoming with a super functional layout. We loved the decor, the furniture was cozy, the hot tub under the stars was fabulous! This is potentially the best stocked vacation rental we’ve been at, and we stay in at least 5 per year. They literally had freaking cheese knives! And yoga mats! Communication with julie was excellent, from start to finish she made us feel welcome and looked after and was super responsive. Top notch spot, would defyvisit again!"

Great Stay

"This was a beautiful cabin - lots of room and everything you need. Well equipped - great location and very cute decor. My family loved it. If I had any criticism it would be to have some beach towels - otherwise everything was great."
