The property was a perfect for my family. It was very clean, roomy and in a perfect location. Some of the rooms did get a letter warm and there was no fan to help circulate air from outside. A lot of the fixtures were loose (shower, bath, cabinets), and of need of maintenance. The air hockey table had one side that kept falling off due to missing screws Other than that it was a very nice home.

Lovely house thats in a lovely place but ...

1) One of the shower (the one I used) was always ankle deep in water ... Just a nasty feeling. 2) looked everywhere for the puck for the air hockey table ... Nowhere to be found ... One of the reasons I booked that place ... Entertainment... Message the 3-party rental company and said they call me back (live person) and a day later told me they ordered one but it not going to be there for my stay ... 😡. 3) The lower TV wasn't plugged in ... To anything. Found an old DVD player with 2 DVDs. 🤔 ... House was. Beautiful... So many lights in that house you will go crazy trying to find all the light switches....lol The kitchen was fully stocked with what you need. The water pressure was nice ... Two-car parking in the garage... Super nice Stairs stairs stairs .. this house is not for older people... Lol still a lovely house. Shower heads .. well .... 4 out of 10 The BBQ pit in the back is great ... The back and front decks are beautiful... Did I say the house is beautiful? 💕 The neighborhood is super cool... Dining table is big and nice to play games on ... Top TV in the living room is nice and we watch many movies .... Kitchen was beautiful.... All in all ... Not bad .... But not great .... You win some ... And you make do on what you have ....

Great space for family gathering

Our family of 7 adults and one 2 year old were very comfortable in this place. Lots of room and beautiful setting. We had a great time playing with the 2 yr. old and enjoying movies, games and snow. Wonderful snow plowing service for all the houses in the neighborhood.

Nice house and location (but squeaky floors)

The house is spacious, four decent-size bedrooms, and a nice game room and living room. Location is convenient, close to golf courses. A nice two-car garage with the doors tall enough to accommodate an SUV with a Thule. Fully stocked kitchen. Thank you! The only issue from our perspective was squeaky floors on the second floor. The middle bedroom on the 2nd floor has it especially bad and the noise resonates throughout the house during the night. So, light sleepers beware! Of course the carpets could be cleaner and static electricity in bed sheets could be less annoying :) but both are within the acceptable margins.

A little disappointed....

The home needed some TLC as it is a little worn from probably the winter season. There were stains on the carpet and sofas. But we were excited to stay at this location because of access to the pool (as stated in the listing) which would have been fun after a day mountain biking. But what the property doesn't disclose is that it's $20 per person to use the pool. We had two families in our group with four teens and we couldn't justify the expense. In addition, when we arrived, the cleaning lady wasn't finished (this is 4pm check-in) and asked us to finish the load of laundry. The counters were so sticky that we had to clean after she left. (we were credited $200 for our inconvenience). The place needs a deep clean, especially the kitchen.

serene holiday getaway

This chateu is beautiful, located in a scenic woodsy area. Snow covering everywhere but the driveway had a clear path. My kids were impressed and anxious to get inside out of the cold but it took the longest to enter the property! The codes didn't work for some reason and we couldn't access the lock box . Called property management took awhile but once in the house it was warm and very spacious! Lots of amenities and we even baked a cake for my son's birthday. Very quiet and Kids loved the pool table and sleds. There was 6 of us but definitely can accommodate more.

Manage Expectations

Pictures are accurate and space/ and location are fine, but property management misses on the details. I think more than anything else, they chose a very poor cleaning crew, that and/or the home was previously rented to people that just partied (we saw lots of recently washed shot glasses on glassware shelf.) Cleaning should be a priority especially due to the current circumstances. Upon arrival, the garage was full of trash (in plastic and paper shopping bags) from the previous occupants. This smelled up the downstairs floor. The cleaning crew came back the next evening to remove. Next, there were no clean towels put out. We thought perhaps not offered due to covid restrictions. They were all in fact, still in the washer and dryer. Also, on our fourth day, we discovered broken glass on the floor (7 pieces) near the side of the wall in the hallway. So no one got hurt (fortunately) as there were no pieces in the middle where people were walking; but nevertheless, not thoroughly cleaned. So yes, going on vacation with my family and needing to deal with trash, folding laundry (towels) and vacuuming (glass), and then paying for the cleaning fee too. (We had kindly requested for it to be refunded but were declined on the bases that the glass was reported too late. When the glass was discovered, I was away for two days working while my family was in the cabin so it was reported upon my return on the 6th day.) Property management was always there to answer calls and listen to complaints and very apologetic; I'd rather just have a clean home to stay at while on vacation, and not have to deal with it all. I general don't prefer to write harsh reviews, but thought I should just share the truthful challenges we experienced. (For those, however that want a cabin to party in, this may be your space.)

Nice house but needs some updates

We had a good time staying in this house. There are few things that need to be done in this house: WiFi - we had problem first 2 days until a property management brought additional box to boost this WiFi; upgrade refrigerator ( this one too old and kind of small), floors between bedrooms were so squeaky. Overall it is a big, nice house to spend some time in Truckee!
