Fantastic stay!!!
Five stars easily for this place! Great little getaway for two people - spacious, clean, perfect location for snowshoeing and cross-country skiing - it was everything we needed and more! Communication was great with the hosts and they even helped us with a few suggestions. Would not hesitate to recommend this place to friends and hope to come back ourselves.

Perfect weekend getaway
If you're debating staying here, just do it! We stayed here over Labor day weekend and it was the perfect getaway. Wonderful hospitality (from chocolates to advice on nearby running trails), great space for relaxing, and the perfect location for hiking, mountain biking, and a short drive to Donner Lake. Beautiful view out back with a gas fire pit too! 10/10 would recommend and we already look forward to coming back.

Lovely home and great location to Tahoe Donner, Donner Lake, Truckee and Lake Tahoe!
Very comfortable, clean and quiet place to stay! Awesome trails nearby, beautiful view from the patio and was able to explore Tahoe and swim in Donner Lake. Laura was a great host and the muffins and fruit she provided to help welcome us was very thoughtful and appreciated! Hope to come back to this gem!!

Perfect, Cozy & Private getaway for 2
The cozy one bedroom, bathroom and living room area was perfect for the two of us. The tranquil view from the unit onto Alder Creek and forest was just perfect. It is obvious that our hosts take care in providing clean, safe and lovely accommodations.

Home away from home!
We really enjoyed our long weekend here. It was cozy, homey, clean, and stocked with everything we needed. It's a 5-minute drive to Tahoe Donner Cross-Country, which was perfect for us. Plus, it's close to downtown Truckee with lots of good places to eat. Laura was lovely and responsive. Would definitely stay here again!

Very Clean/attentive host/nice accommodations.
Once you've accepted the lack of kitchen sink and need to use washroom sink, the experience was very positive. Plenty of hot water. Bed comfy. Laura was very attentive to our needs. The muffins, chocolate, bananas and coffee were a very nice touch. Location was great for us, skiing at Sugar Bowl. Accessibility to Truckee and our family was great.

Beautiful high country retreat
The living arrangements were excellent and provided the exact experience we were looking for. We were surrounded by beautiful tall pine trees. Convenient location for access to the golf course, Truckee, Donner Lake and Lake Tahoe. Keith and Laura were great hosts and easily accessible. Highly recommend.

Clean, comfortable and very welcoming.
The studio has its own entrance and the owners live above . If you need to ask any questions Laura replies immediately. There was everything you needed and the bed was really comfortable. The small patio area has a BBQ and you are surrounded by lots of trees. You are not far from the town of Truckee which has lots of shops and great restaurants. Lots of information in the studio re.places to visit which we found very useful. We had a lovely vacation and it was great to go back every evening to a nice cozy place.

Perfectly appointed
The cozy apartment was everything we needed and super convenient. No lugging gear through a hotel to store in a small hotel room. You can store your ski gear in the garage of the apartment which is accessed from the ground level driveway - easy! The place is quiet, the bed is comfortable, the water pressure is strong and the WiFi worked well. Also, you can walk to Tahoe Donner Cross Country. Laura was very responsive and helpful. Thank you for the lovely accommodation!

Wonder location and great hosts
This lodging is a great spot for a single or couple. The location was ideal for us. Out of the hustle and traffic of Truckee, but with in easy drive of downtown Truckee and Donner Lake. Literally yards from the Alder Creek Trail that connects to endless miles of trails for hiking, biking or running in the cross country area and beyond in to Euer Valley. I think the road riding (bike) right the door is the best and safest in the Donner-Tahoe area. Bedroom and super comfortable. Living room,TV and internet Wifi connection all good. Kitchen is minimal with small fridge, micro, no sink (clean dishes in bathroom) and table for 2. Plan simple meals and eating out. Bathroom is fine. Laura and Kevin were super hosts. Answered all question took care of requests very quickly. Also really liked the deck and guest membership to Trout Creek Recreation Center and Tahoe Donner pool.

Fabulous stay in ideal location
I spent a week in December 2019 in Laura and Kevin’s lovely apartment. It was fantastic all the way around. They are the kindest hosts, and make sure they take excellent care of their guests - from early communication once I made the reservation, to answering questions I had before my trip, to giving me the lay of the land once I arrived. Incredibly friendly, helpful and quick to respond. The unit is plenty spacious, comfortable, quiet and cozy. Absolutely perfect for me (solo) or for a couple. I was so impressed how they have thought of everything in equipping their kitchenette (like, it is better than most hotels). I did not need more than that as I tend to eat out and only bring back snacks and such to keep with me in the space. I loved the private entrance through the garage; made it easy for me to store my ski and snowshoe gear. The location of the home in the Tahoe Donner area of Truckee was perfect for me as it was close (less then 2 minute drive) to the Alder Creek Adventure Center where I could cross-country ski and snowshoe. And, because of staying in the home of a Tahoe Donner resident, Laura and Kevin provide a guest pass to enjoy discounted rates on the amenities that are exclusive to Tahoe Donner area. You are also a short drive a way from any place in the greater Truckee area. Loved my stay and am already figuring out when I can come back in the summer to take advantage of the little back deck/patio (among other things)! I highly recommend staying here. Thank you Laura and Kevin - I will be back!

Really great stay. Plenty of space for the 2 of us. Muffins, fruit and chocolates provided which were nice touches. The unit is stylish and comfortable, decorated in sort of a modern antique style. There’s a short walking trail behind the house, frequented by deer. Easy drive to all north Tahoe and Truckee activities. Large garage space available for you to store your gear if needed, such as bikes or ski gear. Would definitely recommend staying here

Close to Perfection; Read Overview Thoroughly
Everything that was described and shown in the photos was provided and functioned. Pros: Access to both downhill and Nordic areas of Tahoe Donner were fantastic. We appreciated the cleanliness of the rooms and the location. Owner was responsive. The bedroom is spacious and view from the living room is lovely. Our ski gear was stored in a secure garage!!! The wifi was stable and the TV with Firestick worked smoothly for streaming. Shower stream is good. Cons: A kitchen sink is not provided; you will wash dishes using the bathroom sink. Central heat is controlled upstairs. This means both owners and guests are likely breathing the same recirculated air so ask if it is a concern. Owners are gone most of the day so we were not greatly concerned. We tried massage chair; not comfy for sitting and had to step over cord. Prefer a regular chair. Would have appreciated a bigger table for jigsaw puzzle or games. Not a big deal; maybe they had a card table somewhere.
