Stayed at this place many times in the past and was completely disappointed when rented it for Thanksgiving weekend 2025. At the time of check-in we were told that the refrigerator is not working and will not be fixed. The property manager did not care and refunded us USD 60 .... LOLOLOL.... They just DID NOT CARE. The fire place did not work as well. All glasses in the kitchen and plates needed to be re-washed. The carpet was dirty at many area and not properly cleaned. Looked like the place was not use for many months and nobody cared to put some effort to make it livable. Weekend from hell. Would not rent this place again. Ever!
It was perfect for our event!
Pros: Very responsive rental manager (via text). Well stocked kitchen. Nice appliances (fridge, washer and dryer, tvs, gas grill, superb Bluetooth speaker). Foosball table and many board games, books, DVDs. Two car garage decently stocked with bikes, tennis rackets, etc. Cons: A few things that needed repairs, which didn’t bother me but worried some older family members. Pull out bed was broken (though may not have been advertised on the listing). Rec center is underwhelming and admission is confusing (with provided pass, each of first six adults is $24, and each kid is $10, re-entry and outside food allowed, though the facilities are not worth it). All in all, good home, great rental managers, but skip the rec center!
This is 3rd time we are renting this property. You will find everything you need for a nice short or long stay. Very well kept property and great location.
Cobwebs and spiders everywhere. Master toilet had problems working. Q tips and bugs on master bathroom floor. Bugs in other bathroom as well. Back deck covered in pine needles and no furniture.
Great space, nice mud room to keep the house clean. Lot's of room for cooking and dinner with the family. Very enjoyable and large primary bedroom. Easy access to Donner and other ski resorts. Would definitely stay again!
