Remodeled Family Cabin 1 block to Popular Donner Lake, 5 min to Truckee

My family of 4 enjoyed staying at this home. It is more roomy than it appears in the pictures. Originally we planned to travel with another family but because of Covid it ended up being just our family. However, there is plenty of room for 8 people here. It was the perfect place to work, do school and enjoy all that Truckee has to offer. There were 2 desks for work/school. One desk has an available monitor to connect to. The home has been updated and is very cute. Everything was spotless when we arrived. The kitchen is fully stocked to be able to cook any meal you want, they even had a kitchen aid mixer, pour over coffee, and lots of spices. The big dining table was nice for gathering at. The beds were all comfortable. The pool table was bonus fun for when the kids didn’t want to go in the snow. This is a great winter or summer house. The only thing I didn’t anticipate was digging out of the snow in the driveway. This will not usually be an issue. We stayed during a major snow storm and though the driveway gets plowed daily, you still may have to shovel to get out. The home owners have shovels available so it was no problem. When the snow plow plows the street, it builds a snow berm that blocks the driveway too. So you may have to dig out of that. I love the snow and digging out of the driveway was fun for me but not all may be as excited to dig out of the snow. Overall, we really loved this house and will be coming back in the winter and summer.

My family enjoyed our stay. The house was comfortable and it had everything we needed. Fun for kids and relaxing for adults.

This is a wonderfully maintained property with everything you need. It has a couple of main bedrooms, another one with bunk beds for young kids if you still have them (we don't!) and another area upstairs where folks could sleep. Everything is well stocked, modern and it's very comfortably furnished. The only negative I would say, and this could be my fault for not asking, is that the cabins are really close to each other at Donner Lake. And in my mind, I guess I thought we would be on the far side of the lake away from the main traffic noise of highway 80. But the cabin is a short walk to the water, and we discovered there are several public piers (first-come, first-serve) where you can make yourself comfy and enjoy the beautiful scenery. All in all, a very enjoyable few days in the mountains!

This was great all around. The house is very nice and in a great location and has a lovely backyard. Shari was very helpful and easy to work with.

We enjoyed the cabin and the backyard was perfect for the kids to play in the snow!

This cabin is beautiful remodeled and nicely decorated. You even have small view of Donner Lake from the kitchen window. The owner is very responsive and thoughtful; she had all the lights turned on and the heater turned on prior to our arrival, very thoughtful and caring gesture! We had a great time staying at this cabin and will definitely come back if we have a chance!
