Thank you so much for your great review! Truly appreciated, and we are looking forward to your return to our house!
It was our first time in Truckee, and we absolutely loved it! The location and the house were stunning and perfect for our family of five adults and two kids under 7. We especially enjoyed snowshoeing at the Glacier Trailhead, which was just a 5-minute walk up the hill such a convenient and beautiful experience.Woutje was a fantastic host..very responsive, helpful, and quick to answer all our questions. We felt well taken care of throughout our stay and would happily return!

Thank you for your review! You were wonderful guests and we are so happy to know that you had a great time and that your kids got a lot of snow play in.
We hope you will be back!
What stood out? Getting on the mountain by walking out the back door of course! We also loved the house and really appreciated the host's responsiveness and help.

Thank you for your review, and I am happy that you were able to access the TD Ski Area from our back yard.
We hope you that you will come back!
Great place to stay! Woutje was prompt, responsive and helpful with answering questions (though I did not have many questions, as the details and information she provides are clear and thorough). The house is beautiful and well-kept, and it has all the kitchen items and tools you would need. My family and I enjoy skiing, and it was great to have access to the "Mile Run" trail of Tahoe-Donner ski resort, directly from their backyard (about 100 yards straight from the back of the house). Thank you for a wonderful stay -- we would definitely stay here again!

Beautiful home in a great Tahoe setting. We enjoyed our Thanksgiving family time here and the kitchen had everything we needed and more.
The whole place was comfortable and perfect for gathering as a family.
Communication with the host was perfect and everything was just as described. I highly recommend this place.
We were in the area for a wedding. The house was very comfortable and as listed in the vrbo description. Instructions were clear and property manager was very responsive. If I return to the area would definitely stay here again!
The house was perfect, and I really appreciated communicating directly with the owner of the house throughout the process. Looking forward to coming back again!
Beautiful home. Every corner has been thoughtfully designed. A perfect getaway to recharge and connect with nature.

Had a wonderful stay in this beautiful log house
We loved our stay at this place this summer. The house is impeccably styled, furnished with great taste and much love. We wanted to stay in a place a little out of the busy areas and found this peaceful place up on "Skislope". Woutje was always helpful and responsive throughout the process. We would definitely recommend this place.
