    House was very clean and very well stocked. It accommodated our family very very well. The only downside was so many stairs and dangerous for the small children but overall it is a great home!

    We had an incredible time at my bachelor party here! Calm, quiet, and relaxing neighborhood with a huge beautiful home and more than enough room for our group. Would definitely rent again!

    We had such a great time here! It was a great location. There was plenty of space for our family of 7, kitchen was fully stocked, hot tub was relaxing. We definitely want to come stay here again. One recommendation for other guests, if its the winter and snow is present, recommend parking 2 wheel drive cars at the top spots.

    We had the best time at this property in Tahoe Donner. The house was fully stocked with all the spices and condiments we needed for cooking. The reclining couch was a huge hit and we could have stayed there relaxing with the fire all day. The hot tub was super easy to work. Overall, we had a wonderful stay and would return in a heartbeat.

    This property was well equipped with everything we needed for our ski weekend trip. My intramural soccer team booked this cabin for a skiing weekend and thoroughly enjoyed our time here. The living spaces easily accommodated group games and movies in the evenings. The kitchen was well equipped with everything needed for making group dinners as well. Definitely recommend and would quickly book again! You do have to sign a form separately with Tahoe Signature Properties which was a different way of doing things for me, but their customer service team as well as VRBO customer service were all very helpful and understanding during the reservation process.
