Perfect location and house

What a perfect setup for our family and friends (7 adults total) and dogs. The house was in awesome location right off the main raod in Truckee and yet surprisingly quiet! We were in town for the Western States 100 Race, so the proximity to Olympic Valley and I-80 was so helpful. The house itself was a perfect layout with comfy beds, plenty of kitchen items to cook meals, fenced in back yard for the dogs, and big spaces inside to congregate. Would absolutely rent again!!

Weekend Trip

This house was perfect for our family. It was close to downtown Truckee and close to Donner Lake. It was very clean, and the fenced in yard was great for our dog. Our daughter loved playing with all of the toys and books. Will definitely stay again.

Great central location

The house had plenty of room for our 3 families and we loved the central location. The property managers were great! They let us check in early and they even went back to the house in person to look for a lost baby monitor! House had lots of games and toys for kids. It was quite clean except for the floors and a slight musty smell upstairs. My kids’ feet were quite dirty after running around inside for just a few minutes. Other than that, we really enjoyed our stay.

Perfect Location

Home is just a short walk to a free and wonderful transit system. It was very clean and furnished comfortably. One suggestion, one of the bedspreads had some dog hair on it. We had a wonderful time and would stay here again. Thanks
