Wonderful family friendly home

Cozy house with a good layout - space felt very intimate and large enough for six people. Kitchen was fully stocked and beds comfortable. Lots of games to keep everyone entertained, and the backyard area was perfect for kids sleds.

Snowy stay on St. Bernard

We really enjoyed our stay on St. Bernard. The cabin was perfect for the four adults plus two dogs, though there was plenty of room for more people. Tahoe Donner is very convenient to options for downhill skiing, cross country skiing, snowshoeing, etc. The cabin was one of the nicer we've stayed in - everything was in good shape. The location on a dead end street made it more easy to take the dogs outside.

Donner Delight

We had a great stay. Instructions and communication made check in a breeze. Well located on a quiet dead end street. Nice outdoor access and gated wrap around deck. We enjoyed our visit and would recommend. Note: front porch light is out and could use beach towels for summer month visitors.

Truckee Cabin

This is a wonderful pace to stay. Worked well for our party of 2 families. Master ensuite downstairs on the main floor with a second full bath. Upstairs loft area has a bedroom for the parents and a bedroom for the kids along with a full bathroom made it a private space for them. Great to have the pool table for extra entertainment. The property is in a beautiful setting in the mountains. The home is very clean and had everything we needed. I highly recommend staying here.

PROPERTY GREAT/MANAGEMENT AWFUL & UNRESPONSIVE

The property was lovely- clean, tastefully decorated, well appointed, great lay-out for our group. Loved the covered front porch and pool table/games upstairs for my grandchildren. Big problem with internet and cable however- they were both non-existent. We could not get any local TV stations (it was mentioned in the listing that there was cable) nor could we get the internet to work longer than a moment or two. We had no TV or internet the whole week and without internet we could not stream anything either. Tried reaching VACASA 4 days in a row- to speak with the local rep to get help through online SMS on Monday, phone rep on Tuesday and Wednesday and finally getting a call back Wednesday afternoon from "Anthony" the local rep. He said he would go over to the property in the next 10-15 minutes to try to fix the cable/internet problem. I gave him permission to go inside since we were not there and he agreed to get back to me with report after he was done,. NEVER HEARD FROM HIM AGAIN. I left 2 voicemails Wednesday and when I tried to reach him again Thursday morning, his phone had a recorded message that his voicemail had not been set up. This was totally unacceptable and horrible and caused me anxiety and stress that I did not need or want on my vacation. Left a day early- just got totally fed up. House was great- "support" non-existant.

A great cabin.

The location of this cabin is on a quiet street where it ends in a hiking trail. The house was clean and had everything we needed, even a panni press--which was not expected. The beds were quite comfortable. Would definitely rent again.
