Disliked: Communication
Nice main bedroom, rest of the house was hard to keep warm. The stairs had not been shoveled in several days so there was a solid chunk of ice on every step that we had to deal with for them.

Great stay
My family and I had a very enjoyable stay in this dog friendly home. It was very comfortable and well equipped. It was conveniently located to restaurants, stores and Donner Lake, while still being in a quiet neighborhood. We would definitely come again.
The cabin was fantastic - set up very nicely with large, airy, and bright living room and kitchen area. The master suite was spacious and the large soaking tub was wonderful to relax in after a day of skiing and/or hiking. Our kids loved the loft area, and another family we vacationed with had privacy in the downstairs apartment unit. This cabin was ideal for our needs. There were stains on the couches and general wear and tear on the property, but this didn't affect our stay - everything was in working order and clean. Glad to see this property allows pets too, since we may consider bringing our pooch with us next time. When we arrived, there was a melted ice cream container on the kitchen counter we had to clean up, and I had reported this to Vacasa (the management company), and received a reply two days later. Luckily, this was our only incident, but it does make me wonder if something bigger came up - the response time was not quick. Similarly prior to our trip, I had reached out to Vacasa to inquire about the Wifi speed/reliability and again, it took 48 hours for a response. So just something to keep in mind. We will gladly rent this cabin again for future trips. It was in a great location, clean (aside from the melted ice cream on the counter), and spacious.
We stayed at this property with my infant, toddler, and parents. We were very impressed with the location and amenities. We were stuck indoors for 2 days due to smoke, but the house is so bright and spacious that we didn't go stir crazy. We would stay here again.

Hi Natasha,
Thank you for the compliments, and we love hearing how much you had a great stay with us. You were perfect guests, and we appreciate you taking care of our place as if it were your own. Please come back and visit us again any time.
We really enjoyed our stay! The house location was perfect for our Truckee river rafting adventure. It was well stocked, clean, shower was great, and the bed was very comfortable. Having the extra fans around the house was a big plus since it was quite hot during our stay.
We absolutely loved our stay here! House had everything we needed for meals at home, the house is very comfortably set up, and everything was easy to find and use in the house.

House was perfect for our stay, a great vacation for us.
We loved our stay! Such a unique layout and feels so large on the inside. It's also in such a great area, we loved walking through the neighbor hood and we also visited the nearby Tahoe Donner Cross Country Ski Center, only a five minute drive away. We had everything we needed for our group of five. The property management was also very professional and made check in/out very easy. We'd love to stay here again.

Great place
Had an amazing time. This place DOES have air conditioning despite confusing messaged both in the home and on the VRBO page. The communication with Vacasa management in Truckee was fantastic. They went well out of their way to ensure our stay was comfortable. Only problem was spotty wifi throughout the trip, but we were exploring so much that we werent at the house that much for it to be an issue. Would stay here again!
