"My family enjoyed our summer stay at this property. The kitchen is really well appointed for someone who likes to cook, the movie room was a huge hit with the kiddo, and everything was comfortable. Wifi is spotty, but we learned it is like that across Tahoe Donner. Not listed is the fact that they do have a lot of tower fans which came in handy when it was warm out. Location is great too -- close to Tahoe Donner community, quick access to downtown Truckee and Donner Lake."

10/10 Excellent

"We loved our stay! The house was clean, comfortable, and well appointed.Location was incredible - very quiet street in lovely neighborhood close to all the amenities. A few things were broken (bench in front yard, bridge, some decking) or outdated (wear and tear on dishes, missing screens) but none of this bothered us at all. Overall it was a wonderful stay and we look forward to returning as soon as possible to this beautiful home."
