Set up is great. Very quiet with great view. Very spacious for our group.
1st of all. Beautiful home. We where all had the WOW factor of the home. We even sent a message stating we where able to have a early check in. After we arrived, The home was just beautiful and fit my family and it could actually sleep more but it was enough space for us all. 1. we noticed lots of full beer cans and beer bottle lids in the snow that where left from a previous renter.2. Binds where very tricky, the blind down stairs was haning and looked broken . 3 keruig coffee machine did not work. 4. The WiFi and satellite was not great as well. Directtv needs to be upgraded or changed to another service. 5. The master bed room was always cold even thou the heater was on. So bring extra blankets when visiting in the winter. 6. The driveway had lots of black ice and could have been cleaned more. We noticed other homes driveways that where cleared. 7. We did not find a broom to sweep. 8.we did notice not enough towels are in the home for 8 people. The good thing is I always pack extra towels. But having more towels in the home would be nice especially we went also to play in the snow. 9. I wish they had more family/kid dishes to use. We had to purchase red solo plastic cups and plates for the kids. 10. If you have any toddlers from 10 months to 2 years staying with you, please be ready to always watch you little one as it has stairs on both levels. Other then those little obstacles we had a good family trip.
The size of the place was perfect for a big group trip with me and some friends, and it had more than enough beds for everyone. The living room and kitchen were pretty big also, and overall the place was a really good value. However, there were a countless number of small annoyances in the place that makes it worthy of only 3/5 stars. When we arrived, the dishwasher wasn’t working, and one of the two sink tubs was completely clogged. The dishwasher didn’t work for the entirety of our stay, and the sink took 4 days to unclog. Also, the washing machine was very high maintenance. I would say that the majority of people wouldn’t have figured out how it worked, but luckily, one of the people in our group had the exact same washer at home, and was able to figure it out. Also, one of the bunk beds was missing a wooden slat, and was unable to hold up anyone who slept on it. Besides these, there were a few other annoyances with the stovetop, cabinets, and bathroom that made this a doable, but at times annoying, stay.
Bedroom carpet is so stained I would not walk on it without my shoes. Window seals were broken so you could not see out some of the windows. A couple of the window shades in the great room/dining area would not open. We had eight people staying and only 4 chairs around the outside table. Kitchen was not very well stocked. The home did sleep quite a few people so that was nice. Good area downstairs for the kids but the TV did not work so they didn’t want to be down there.. The home itself is a nice home if the mentioned items were fixed.
Our employees stayed here while working in the area and were very happy with the accommodations.
Fan didn’t work. Jacuzzi didn’t work. Tv didn’t work. Blind didn’t work. No propane. Bbq filthy. False picture on ad. Showed 10 chairs outside. Only 4. There were 5 of us. No info about awning. Etc etc etc. no One came out but a propane guy. I feel a refund for false advertisement should be sent.
We were very disappointed in our experience with this property. The deck and chairs were not as listed on website - only 4 chairs for our group of 6 (we had to bring indoor chairs outside). Firetable was not equipped to use and there were no chairs to use as advertised. The kitchen was without measuring cups or spoons which we needed to buy. No stockpot or cast iron pan. Also no salt/pepper/sugar or coffee filters. I know it was COVID but didn't realize that I needed to pack my kitchen for the trip. The property had a no pet policy - we left our dog with a sitter at home. However, a friend of my son who also was in Truckee stopped by and had his dog in the front yard. I received a call that afternoon while at the pool and was rudely reminded of the no dog policy. Very disturbing to feel like we were being watched during our stay. I will not recommend this property.
We loved the house plenty of space for the kids and close enough to town to make store runs. Stayed here for Thanksgiving and the only downside was the availability of pots and pans to cook with and the condition of those available. Luckily my older kids where able to stop by my home and grab my stuff as they arrived later. Other than that I would stay here again it was a beautiful home. Just needed more attention paid to the dishes.
We loved all of the trees that you are able to see from the many windows in the cabin. Beautiful open cabin with many areas to hang out in. Very beautiful ?
Away from the traffic and in a quiet part of Tahoe Donner, this is a nice home but we noted a few repair items which should be addressed: Many dual pane windows have failed and are permanently fogged and stained so those windows don't really have a great view through them. Half the kitchen outlets do not work because a GFCI outlet is broken (easy fix which would make the kitchen work much better) The bunk beds are missing a lot of the wooden slats that keep the mattress from sagging (easy fix). The master bedroom needs a carpet cleaning. There is the odor of vomit near door side of the bed and since we didn't open windows (due to smoke from fires), the smell of the vomit began to permeate the room (hence discovering the bunk bed issue when we couldn't stay in the master bedroom).
