Fabulous cabin in quiet neighborhood
Loved the cabin for our snowshoeing adventure around Tahoe. This place is perfect for a group of friends or two families with its 5 bedrooms with plenty of beds. We really enjoyed the cozy atmosphere with a well stacked kitchen for home cooked meals, and the living room / dining room area with plenty of seating for everyone as well as a big TV for night time entertainment. Highly recommend this place in such a beautiful neighborhood. It’s probably also really nice in the summer with Donner Lake so close.

Great Location By Donner
Nice cabin with lots of character. Location is great, close to Donner, Truckee, and ski resorts. Steadily making more and more improvements. Loved the living room with big couch, large TV, and Apple TV.

Lovely stay
Our group of friends stayed here for our 25th annual snow weekend. House was marvelous and in a great location. We snowshoed half way up the mountain behind the house, walked down to the lake (and the pub) and played lots of games round the big table. The host was responsive and very helpful and we got the perfect dusting of snow. Thank you.

Wonderful house
This property was exactly as described. Very clean, roomy for three couples, warm and quiet. It provided a much needed quiet space to get away to....and was close enough to walk to the lake and the nearby pub. Would definitely recommend.

Just the best house
We had two families staying together in this home and it was fantastic. So much space with a real bed for everyone. The location is just perfect for older kiddos who want to walk to the lake by themselves, very safe with little to no traffic Also this location is great for the Littles to just ride their bikes out front. Great fire pit for relaxing evenings. So clean with all the needed amenities. Thank you for sharing your cabin with us Drew and Jesse. Hope to rent again soon.

What a great getaway!
This cabin is in a great location for winter or summer! My teens spent their days at boreal which was a short drive away. Just close enough to truckee for convenience but still feels like you are remote enough to enjoy the outdoors. I would absolutely stay here again! Thank you Drew and Jesse for being great hosts and making everything easy!

Clean, well kept cabin conveniently close to Sugar Bowl Ski Resort and Donner Lake
Clean and well kept cabin located close to the Donner Pass Road entrance to Sugar Bowl ski resort. This cabin also had a huge flat screen TV with lots of streaming options when we got snowed out.

Great Ski Weekend!
This house was perfect for our two families to enjoy the snow and ski. Location is close to so many resorts and snow play areas. The backyard itself was great for snow play! Also close to West End Beach for sledding with beautiful view of the lake. Host were very easy to communicate with and flexible!

our 4 night snow and sun escape...
... was a great success. There were 4 of us for the first three nights, and there are real beds for as many as is described in the ad. We found the cabin very comfortable and well equipped, which allowed for a very relaxing stay. We'll be happy to come back at the next opportunity and will recommend to friends.

Great Stay!
Loved our stay here! The location was great! Close to the snow resorts and stores. And and additional plus was the sledding hill right behind the property! The kids (and adults!) loved it! The house was properly stocked and never had any issues with heating or electricity with the stormy weather we were experiencing. Only downside was that the property is a little older, so some complaints from the younger crowd about creaking and noises. Ultimately loved our stay and would definitely stay again!

Perfect Snow Weekend
We had the best time enjoying all the area had to offer. The house has a perfect layout so that all of us had beds and we could all be together in the main area enjoying the fireplace. The hosts were so accessible and checked in to make sure we could safely travel/navigate the roads during a big storm. We hope to book again in the spring!
