Great place for snowlovers

This place is just a block's walk to the snow area at the top of this neighborhood. Great for snowshoe hikes, cross country skiing, sledding. We only did a little bit of that and enjoyed hanging at the cabin. The living area is big enough but also the kitchen, dining table, and sitting areas are all close enough that you are always in the action.

Absolutely Amazing Home

We loved everything about this home! The house was clean, nicely updated and kept up nicely. The management company was quick to respond to any questions we had. We have had some horrible stays recently at other places but this one was as close to perfect as you can expect. A lot of nice upgrades throughout the house including nice appliances and plenty of linen and towels. Best of all, we were not expected to completely clean the house as if we had never been there upon leaving like is becoming the norm at a lot of rentals. We will be definitely renting from this management company on all our future visits to the area.

Truckee House

Very nice home, great for 3 couples. Tried to use the club pass for the jacuzzi, felt the 17 dollar per person charge was to steep. Overall the home is great. Thanks

Clean, great kitchen, location

The house was very clean and the property managers were really responsive, even bringing us a regular coffee pot when we discovered there was only a Nespresso type thing. The kitchen was amazingly well equipped, though as always at rentals the knives weren't great. The upstairs master was incredible, with a huge closet and more hangars than you could ever use. The TV in the living room (we didn't use any others) gave us a great place to watch the Olympics from the comfort of the couch and chairs. It wasn't cheap, but you get what you pay for!
