Please note that this rental does require purchasing short term vacation rental insurance for stays up to 29 nights (reservations longer than 29 nights will need to discuss insurance options with Tahoe Cohost Collective prior to booking). The SafelyStay, Inc. Trust and Safety Fee (labeled as a Management Fee in Airbnb) includes up to $10,000 of accidental coverage for contents damage and up to $100,000 coverage for accidental property damage and bodily injury, if the fee has been paid.

You will also be required to pay for a cleaning every 30 days along with the cleaning that is already scheduled after your stay.

Please note that living in the mountains and staying in a private home means that there are some things we cannot always control. For example, weather and harsh conditions have knocked out Wifi and the power before. While these instances are far and few between, we please ask that you are patient as these are things that we unfortunately cannot control. While we will try and accommodate all requests, we handle refunds for situations like this (power outages, appliances breaking, etc.) on a case by case basis.

Our experience...
We stayed on the property for four days. Overall, the family had a good time in the Donner area. The property itself was accurately depicted on the website. All the usual amenities were present and early check in was allowed. The reason for the overall three star review comes from the master bathroom on the top floor. The day of arrival we noticed "dirt and debris" next to the master tub. Since we weren't using the tub that day, we didn't think anything of it. The next evening, we were prepping to use the tub when we took a closer look and realized that it was rodent droppings. Upon further inspection, we also realized that the wood paneling on the slanted wall was falling off the wall. We contacted the property manager the next morning and informed them of the issues. The wood paneling has come off the wall more since then. Pictures were taken and sent directly to the property manager for review. Our stay has ended but wehave not heard back from the property manager since then. We understand that being in Tahoe can pose its own set of challenges, but rodent droppings are a health hazard and should have gotten more attention from the manager and possibly the owner. Hopefully the issue is addressed immediately.
