Beautiful home!!! Exceeded all expectations. We were skiing sugar bowl and the location was perfect. We went to boot fitters at palisades one day and felt that it was a good location to ski palisades as well. The view of the lake from the hot tub was amazing!! Wonderful vacation spot!

Amazing Stay
Very clean and a perfect location. Easy to get to lake, State Park, and Truckee. Was worried about parking but figured it out. Was able to park 5 cars on property. More cars would be harder. Wished we could find a broom and dust pan to help clean up before we left. Would stay here again and again. 5 stars....

We loved everything except the lighting throughout the house. It was really bad and made the after dark hours not as pleasant as expected. Other than that, we were very comfortable and happy there.

Gorgeous House & View!
Our family loved our stay in this home and especially loved the view of the lake. Perfect location close to friends in Truckee and short drives to ski resorts and other fun places. Rivian charging station is less than 5 min away from the house. Hot tub was key and my girls loved staying in the game room. Would stay here again in the future!

The property is well kept, spacious, and endows the beautiful scene of Donner Lake across the street. The area is deliciously quiet, and most of the items you need to cook are available in the unit. We will definitely be back.

Almost perfect
The property and location were exceptional. The only negatives were we were given the wrong entry code and could not enter the property but luckily the cleaning service was there to let us in. We were provided misinformation about certain amenities that supposedly were not provided and finally certain utensils were in need of replacing. Overall it was a great stay.

Absolutely stunning house, tons of small touches too!
I don’t know what they could do to this house to make it look even more beautiful. We had an amazing stay here. The kitchen was stocked with everything a chef and baker could possibly want. The views from almost every room in the house were stunning. We had lunches and dinners out on the patio and movie nights in the family room. I saw some other reviews that mentioned no cable. This is common in the area for houses. The hosts left very good instructions for how to connect with cable through YouTube and we were able to set up all of our streaming services. So there was no problem whatsoever. I can’t wait to return to this house with friends and family.

The location was very good and the view of property was fantastic, closed to all restaurants skiing
Overall, we were happy stayed at this property and I, as a host recommend to my friends and others this place is very good , however when I booked this property the pictures and informations was exactly matched the same that I wanted, but one week before checking they mentioned that one of the shower of 3 bathrooms is out of order because of leaking, so one of my senior’s guest couldn’t use the other bath tub.

Contemporary home with a great lake view
The main room offers ample room to view the lake, cook, watch the cooking, or lounge on the large sectional. The kitchen is well furnished for all types of cuisine (knives could be sharpened). The upstairs loft (2 rooms) is perfect for our teenagers and friends, while the lower level has three spacious bedrooms. We all appreciated the contemporary interior & decor! We will definitely return to stay.

The perfect weekend getaway!
This house was exactly what we wanted for our trip to donner lake. It was beautiful, clean, spacious, and very well furnished. The beds and couch was all very comfortable and we felt right at home. There are a couple of things that could make this house perfect, and they’re why I’m giving 4/5 stars. The lighting in the entire house is harsh, white light bulbs. If you’re anything like my group, lights set the entire vibe and these lights were so harsh. Thankfully we found 2 lamps in the house that had warm light bulbs and set those up in the living room, but it was too dark. I would highly recommend to the owners to swap the bulbs for soft neutral or warm lights! Secondly, the stairs that lead from the deck don’t go all the way down to the road so we had to walk down the back road to get to the water. Still doable, but would have been much easier access if the stairs went all the way! Overall I would still highly recommend this house and I will definitely book again!

We had a great weekend. We came with our adult children and grandson for weekend snow play. There was a winter storm, that closed everything down but we had so much fun playing in the snow right where we were. Our host was responsive and and made our extra night stay due to weather very easy. I just can't say enough good stuff. Beautiful inside and out.
