Fun family trip

Had a blast in Tahoe Donner! The Mougle house was great. Clean, comfortable beds, very well stocked kitchen even with tin foil and plastic wrap which most VRBOs don't stock and a mostly flat backyard woods for the young kids to play. They loved the foosball and game closet. Thankyou for a great stay!

Project Healing Waters

Karen & Bob's place was perfect for three disabled veterans and me from Project Healing Waters. They spent two incredible days fly fishing the Little Truckee River. Each day it was great to come 'home' at our VRBO. It meant the world to them!

Review of the Beautiful Tahoe Donner 4 Bedroom, Perfect Family Rental Home near 5 ski resorts!

We had a great stay here with two young families! Kids ages 7-11. There was plenty of sleeping room for both families and all the kids. The bunk room was great for the kids. We enjoyed hanging in the living room next to the wood burning fireplace watching movies. The kitchen had everything you needed for cooking meals at the house. Our kids had a blast hanging in the backyard having snowballs fights and building snowmen. Check in process was smooth. The host was great and reached out directly for best point of contact. We would book another stay here in the future.

Fabulous family vacation in Truckee

This house is great! The pictures don't do it justice. We had plenty of space inside and outside, and the house would work well for a multi-family/multi-generational gathering, too. Neighborhood is quiet and convenient, and the kitchen had everything we needed. Would stay here again. Thank you!

Truckee Cabin

This is a perfect cabin in Truckee for an extended family get away. It has 4 bedrooms, a foosball table, a closet of games and puzzles, a beautiful large deck with a BBQ, a well stocked kitchen, and it is located in a beautiful wooded, serene neighborhood minutes from Truckee. It also provides access to a recreation center with a pool during the summer and a sledding area during the winter. The owners are super responsive and helpful. We look forward to staying here again.

About the host

Hosted by karen gregory

Host profile image
This is our beloved second home that has been meticulously maintained. We bought it because it backs up to a greenbelt and is full of pine trees. Our children grew up spending both summer and winter weekends and vacations here. They now bring their adult friends here to enjoy all that this house and this area has to enjoy. It is a year round community where there is always something to do. We live in Sierra Foothills and come to the Truckee/Tahoe region whenever we can to enjoy the snow, get away from the heat, or want to spend fun and memorable times with friends and family! We are from the East Coast and LOVE that our summer vacations NEVER get get ruined by rain here!

Why they chose this property

We fell in love with the Tahoe/Truckee area after we moved to California almost 25 years ago. We love Tahoe Donner because it is quieter and less crowded than many of the other areas. The natural beauty of our property brings peace and joy to us every time we come up here. Tahoe Donner so has many amenities that we chose to buy here instead of other areas.

What makes this property unique

We fell in love with the back deck and the backyard that is full of trees and backs up to a greenbelt. We loved that it was 4 bedrooms, 3 full baths, AND a bonus room. Because of the house layout we have been able to host 2 other families and their children at the same time comfortably on many occasions.

Tahoe Donner has many accessible and pet friendly trails. Enjoy them all year long! Please see the Tahoe Donner site for details on trails and accessibility.
