Located out in the quaint town of Truckee lies this stunning getaway!

Donner Memorial State Museum Is less than five miles out from your vacation rental where you can learn all about the emigrant experience and of the people that once lived here in this humble settlement so long ago.
Head on back after you've had enough adventure for one day and gaze up at the enormity of your new home away from home tucked behind tall and gorgeous trees. Inside, you'll be in awe at the spaciousness of your living area, with its tall windows reaching up to its vaulted ceiling. Kick up your feet and relax on the comfortable furnishings provided or take a quick power nap on the couch.

Gather around the dining room table and feast on a homemade meal under the light of a spectacular chandelier.
Put on your favorite bathing suit and ready yourself for an evening of relaxing and simmering in your own private hot tub with a couple of drinks and some fantastic company. To warm up against the brisk cold air, head back inside and dry off by the fireplace provided. Wrap yourself in a cozy blanket and sip on some hot cocoa. You'll have your pick of the bedrooms, all awaiting you with their snug bedsheets. Slip under the covers and let the gentle breeze of the forest air outside carry you away into a good night's rest.

Overall our group of 3 families (6 adults, 6 kids) had a nice stay. The bedrooms were comfortable. We enjoyed the hot tub and using the fireplace. The location is pretty solid, only a few minutes drive from the main street in Truckee. A couple things could've been better: the downstairs shower didn't work and the coffee pots were small/hard to use.
The house was perfect for our needs for our long weekend getaway. Location was great, bedrooms were nice and clean and it had good amenities like hottub, barbecue grill, etc. Kitchen was well stocked which was nice as we cooked in all 3 nights. Would stay here again.
Everything was as described. Location was close to all golf courses we played and to main strip in town. Quiet neighborhood. Well worth the cost and my friends all enjoyed it.

Hi Benjamin, thank you so much for your kind feedback! We’re delighted to hear that the property was a great fit for your group and that you found your stay to be easy and enjoyable. I appreciate you bringing the ice maker issue to our attention. Our local team was not aware of this, but we will be reaching out to the homeowner to request approval for repairs. We want to ensure everything is in perfect working order for your future visits.
Gorgeous property on a quiet road. Easy to access. 5 min from downtown truckee. Sleeps 8 adults comfortably. Great amenities. Only complaint, and it was more amusing than annoying, was that for a house that sleeps 8-12 people, the only functioning coffee maker was tiny and would only make two cups at a time.

Golfers getaway
Loved the proximity to the courses we played ( Old Greenwood, Grey’s Crossing, Coyote Moon ). All within a 10 minute drive.
It was clean, kitchen was great. Beds comfortable. Bathroom great. Door out to backyard didn't lock. We ran out of dishsoap, dish towels. Carpets were a little worn. But over all great vacation. Thank you

Beautiful House!
Our crew of about 8 people loved our stay in this home. The deck and hot tub were lovely breaks after we spent our days river floating and going on the lake. The Uber situation in the area was also surprisingly easy. Highly recommend the house/area. The check-in and out was also very easy.

Peaceful and Spacious
This home was a wonderful stay for my family of nine. There was plenty of space for us to connect, make dinners and hang out, but also have spaces to unwind one on one. It was very clean, and checkout wasn’t fussy like other accommodations. I would highly recommend for big groups oh and not to mention the house and backyard was beautiful.

Great Tahoe house for all your friends
Went up here for the Fourth of July. The house had two great balconies that overlook a massive backyard plus another small balcony just for grilling! The grill worked and the kitchen was stocked with everything we needed to serve our large group of friends.
The rooms were comfy, the furniture in the living spaces was accommodating, the backyard fun for all the activities we wanted, the fire pit and hot tub perfect for night time even during the summer heat (it cools off at night in the mountains), and the location is close to historic Truckee and Donner lake and not far from Tahoe’s Sunnyside! Would recommend for groups of 10+
Great house with plenty of space for our group of 10 adults. House was clean and nice provision of some essential items making our late arrival that bit more comfortable.Couple of minor issues, with heating system giving inconsistent heat delivery through various air ducts in the house. Hot tub lid frame broken on arrival but lid easy to remove manually. Neither detracted from a great place to start close to Truckee and all the north shore ski resorts.

Truckee Time
Close to town, restaurants and lots of bakery and coffee shops. Close to Safeway and grocery outlet! Nice fenced in back yard with nice grassy area. Not ideal for toddlers but we took our own stair gates and we enjoyed the yard time. Plenty of nice bathrooms and two large sitting areas. (Remember no air conditioning so does get warm in day time. …larger fans would be nice but there were plenty of smaller fans that were helpful). Not many windows open. Overall we enjoyed our stay and were comfortable.
