Location/amenities and clean condo
The location is fantastic. We have 3 young children and having easy, close access to groceries, food, drug store, etc. is very convenient. Many amenities in very close walk range by way of dedicated bike, walking path. The condo has a garage available to use that is attached to the condo. This was great with snowy and wet arrivals as we could unload easily. The entrance from the garage is like a mud room. Washer/dryer is located here and it works well as a drop zone. The garage door/opening is extra tall which allowed us to leave our luggage rack and carrier attached to our Land Rover - this is so convenient to pack and unpack without concern for weather and no need for removal and storage! Excellent for our needs! The condo itself is family friendly with a nice size main area with the two bedrooms at separate sides which is great for napping or early bedtimes. There is plenty of closet space and 3 dressers: 2 in the master and 1 in the "kids" room that has a bunk plus a full size bed. The condo was very clean and well maintained with plenty of towels and bedding. The condo property is also well maintained and quiet. There is an exercise room with a nice selection of machines that are well maintained onsite along with pool/hot tub which is nice. We used the exercise room daily and never had to wait for machines. We highly recommend Soda Springs for skiing and tubing. We've gone several times and always have a great experience. It is ideal for our young kids, parking is easy, staff is very nice and it feels safe. Kids can transition from skis to snowboard rental easily as the rental area for the kid area is convenient to use. There are also snowboards with grab bar and helmets available to easily try without all the necessary rental equipment. Rentals BTW are included in the kids' price for the day. Lessons are also an option at the main lodge area which is at opposite ends. I mention this because unless your kids are skiing all of the mountain and using the chair lifts, a family can easily stay in the kid zone with plenty to do. Overall an easy snow week or weekend for all. Nice community and easy access to Reno or Tahoe if desired. Trukee also has a Kids' Museum which is really a nice play space with crafts, climbing apparatus and pretend play and toys to use. Overall location/trip 5 stars for our casual, young children family.
