Clean, close to Truckee and Northstar. 3 bathrooms.
Only stayed one night due to travel plan changes, but this place worked well for our small group. I really appreciate the dual thermostats to control the upper and lower floor separately. While small, the kitchen had everything we needed.
Perfect place for a Tahoe getaway whether in the winter or summer! Convenient location to ski resorts, lakes, hiking trails and more! Will definitely come back!
Good location and price but unit could use some maintenance. For the most part was okay but could be great if maintenance issues addressed.
We loved our stay in this rental which was in a beautiful neighborhood - it's extremely roomy with very comfortable chairs and sofa. The kitchen was well stocked and it was in a lovely, quiet area - close enough to Lake Tahoe, yet far enough away to avoid the traffic and crowds. Definitely recommend.
The moment you walk in, you feel a sense of comfort. This place is perfect for a quick getaway to Donner Lake. Everything you need to enjoy the lake is provided. We have stayed here on the same weekend for the last 3 years and looking forward to many more.
