The home had everything my boyfriend and I needed for our three night stay. It was walking distance to lots of restaurants and shops in Truckee and about 20 minutes to Palisades where we loved the skiing. The place was cozy and warm and great communication with the property managers.

We absolutely loved this house, it's history, the location, and how welcoming this boat was. The ability to explore Tahoe, walk to an incredible kids playground, be a block for downtown, and have an enclosed outdoor space was perfect. The host was responsive and very helpful.

Great stay; great location!

Cannot oversell how great the location was... some places "in Truckee" are not really walkable, or easily walkable. This was great to just pop over to a meal or shop. The place was clean and quite a comfortable bed... at least the one we slept in!

Perfect spot!

Adorable home in a perfect location! My niece and I loved everything about our stay. We loved Truckee and it was perfect being so close to town. We had wonderful meals and ice cream each day and even experienced Truckee Thursday which was fun! We did a wonderful hike near Donner Pass and enjoyed Lake Tahoe area! Can’t wait to come back to explore more!
