The Space:

Permit #: STR22-5139

Occupancy: 12



Located out in the quaint town of Truckee lies this stunning getaway! This place is perfect for the outdoor spirit in you with places such as Truckee River Regional Park nearby, where you can spend a fun-filled day out with your family picnicking on the grass, hiking along its incredible trails, or playing some disc golf. 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. The cabin-like interior decor along with its welcoming signs are sure to make you feel right at home. Cook up a delicious meal for everyone as you make use of the full kitchen's stainless steel appliances. 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.

Everything was super fantastic. Big, clean, top-shelf, well-appointed. The only draw back was the spotty wifi. Otherwise, this place is fantastic.

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.
