Truckee in town hideaway

Each year we fly out from the east coast to spend a week in Truckee skiing the local mountains with my son and his wife who live in CA. This was our first stay in Truckee River Cottage and we were very comfortable here. Gary, the owner could not have been more responsive to our questions and had many helpful suggestions including his favorite dining locations. It was like staying at a friend's house with a well equipped kitchen, comfortable living/dining room with gorgeous river views with afternoon sunlight pouring in. There was easy parking for two vehicles in the driveway with access to the private back deck. The bedrooms are well separated and the beds were very comfortable. This house is obviously not intended as a rental only as many VRBOs are, but rather someone's second home that they rent out occasionally. It is well stocked with interesting books, games and some of the owner's things carefully placed out of the way. It just feels homey and we felt privileged to be staying here. Unfortunately we were forced to leave two days early due to the blizzard of 24! Nevertheless, Gary was kind enough to offer incentive to come back next year. We can't wait.

The best of Truckee

This a sparkling, sunny, and sweet property with an amazing view of the Truckee river. There is enough sun on the deck even in the winter to admire the river view from outside. Also, being so close to downtown and the Legacy Trail make this the perfect place to stay and explore. Couldn't be happier!

I didn’t look up to date like the pictures

The bed weren’t very comfortable. The bed spreads were very lumpy, it was very dirty under the couch. It also wasn’t enough face towels for us. The owner’s clothes and things were all in the house taking up a lot of space and the furniture was different from the furniture that was in the picture. There was no heat upstairs so we couldn’t sleep up there because it was so cold. It just didn’t feel like a home away from home. When I go on vacation I expect to feel like I’m at home and this house didn’t feel like that.
