    We had an easy stay. The house was well appointed, including games and such for our kids, the jacuzzi was warm, the heat worked well and the manager was easy to reach. We’d stay again!

    Great little property on Donner Lake, nice views with a balcony and hot tub. Overall great experience but a few smaller issues. First, steep driveway that was very icy with the weather and I definitely needed to shovel/scrape it even with a AWD SUV on all-weather tires. Second floor power was out, (not sure if this wasn't checked beforehand?) but management was helpful in helping me find the circuit breaker to reset things. Ice making wasn't working. Dishwasher a little finicky getting started. But no significant major issues and the kids liked it. Again, overall great homebase on Donner Lake, easy access to Sugar Bowl and local trails/snowshoeing.

    The house was very clean and stocked with everything we needed. Beautiful view. Only reason we gave 4 stars instead of 5 is because it stated it’s a 1 minute walk to the Lake which is false. We had to drive or walk about 10-15 minutes which is fine but we wanted to be walking distance because of the kids. Other than that a great place to stay.

    We had a nice time staying at the house. I grew up in Truckee but have never lived at Donner Lake. It was nice to bring my husband and kids here and enjoy being so close. The house was plenty big enough for us and our 8 and 10 year old. My family same to visit and all the cousins had fun with the game room downstairs. The house is kind of right in the middle of China Cove and West End Beach.

    Went for a family get away with ages 89 to 11 for the Donner Triathlon. We sat in the hot tub and looked out over the lake it was very relaxing. We watched the sun come up and the birds awaken while laying in bed looking out over the lake. The kitchen had everything plus more. The cleanliness and details were better than described.
