I had a milestone birthday in December, not an ideal time for a celebration because of Christmas and unpredictable weather, and we are not winter outdoor enthusiasts. I asked my children and grandchildren to join my husband and I to spend a weekend at Donner Lake (one of our favorite places). So happy we found this great house. We had such a wonderful weekend making memories at this spacious, clean, and comfortable home.
We were a group of 3 families, all with children, staying for a getaway in the snow. And we got that! This house is a great set up for groups with separate rooms for kids and parents, a tree house, a pool table, and plenty of space for all. Everything was better than we expected inside and outside. The host was responsive and incredibly gracious when we thought we may get snowed in on our check out day. Overall, we all agreed we would stay there again!
Our stay at this massive cabin was really enjoyable. Lots of space for everyone to have a comfy room/bed and the ping pong table was excellent. Staying in Truckee/Donner in the summer is all about the lake and access only takes about 5 minutes down the road to the state park.
This place is set up great for a large group. Our kids had a great time sledding, snow ball fights etc. Overall just a fun experience, weve stayed here a number of times over the years and will continue to come back in the future.
The house and location was better than expectations. We had a family union with 4 families and we all loved it. Wish we could have been there for a few more days.
We love the area and the location was what we were looking for, which is not always easy to find. The guests and especially kids enjoyed the property. A couple items in the home need some attention, as well as a deep clean. But the house served its purpose.
This house was beautiful! It was clean and very comfortable for our long weekend of skiing and sledding. Everything we needed was on hand. The owners appear to love their house and share it generously.
Overall this place is great! Very close to Donner Lake.. the firepit was great. The pool table and ping pong was what everyone needed. Very roomy.. we had 3 families and everyone had a room.
We had 11 adult family members together for our 50th anniversary. The house worked out great and there were plenty of things to do in the Truckee/Tahoe area.
We were a multigenerational family group ranging in age from 5-77, and the house was ideal for us. Great location close to Donner Lake, which has the best beach and playgrounds! We drove around the area and visited Lake Tahoe (25-30 min drive), Donner Pass (15 min, spectacular), local state park, Truckee etc. Everything was easy and uncrowded and stunning. The house is clean, well equipped and we were very comfortable and enjoyed the fabulous views and environment. Curtis was an excellent host too. We would love to stay there again!
Very large house accommodated 6 easily with separate bedrooms and baths. Seniors should know that long stairways are a challenge. Great amenities and well equipped but needs a little TLC. On a hillside above lake in beautiful setting..
Stayed this weekend with three families, and we had an absolute blast! There are plenty of bedrooms and seating for everyone! Beautiful fireplace, fun playhouse for the kids, and the yard is perfect for playing in the snow and sledding. Huge kitchen for those who like to cook- canât say enough good things. We will be back!
A family stay to celebrate a 10 year old birthday. Great dining and sleeping experience. Lots of room to spread out. Kitchen was suitable. Internet good.
This was our second time staying at this property. The house is well laid out with plenty of room for everyone. It snowed every day we were there which was great for the kids. Curtis is very responsive with any concerns. Highly recommend this house.
Lots of room, large dining table for family meals all together. 5 bedrooms was perfect for all adults and the kids. 12,10 and 4 played hours of pool and ping pong . We had lots of rain so the fireplace was a godsend. Donner lake is gorgeous and less crowded then Tahoe. We all had a great time. Sitting on the outdoor deck watching thunderstorms was excellent.
Had a great stay at this house. Host communication was outstanding. Great location near several ski resorts, and convenient to Truckee, i80, and Donner Lake. The house itself is great. Clean, spacious, well laid out. Great, well stocked kitchen! We had four adults and 5 kids and had plenty of space. Could have fit more.
