Perfect Family Getaway!
We couldn’t have asked for better hosts or accommodations! We came for a family ski trip and this place was instantly inviting and cozy. The house is just as advertised, and hosts Britta & Blake are wonderfully responsive. Added bonus: we even experienced a Truckee area-wide power outage while we were there due to severe weather, and Britta & Blake helped us feel totally at ease. Not only is the house well-equipped to handle an outage (the fireplace and oven are both gas-powered, and there is an emergency kit with flashlights, lighters, batteries, etc, under the sink), but Britta & Blake also stayed in contact with us to give updates on power restoration and answer our questions (on a holiday, no less!). 10/10 experience - would definitely go back and recommend!

Great cabin. Location is very convenient to Truckee and nearby ski areas. The kitchen may be the best we’ve had at a rental - well equipped and excellent appliances. Wish we lived closer so we could come back more often.

Lovely cabin with great location
I stayed in the cabin for a total of 2 nights with a group of 5 over 4th of July weekend, and we enjoyed our stay a lot. The cabin is very clean. It has a bunk bed, a king sized bed and a queen sized bed, and 2 bathrooms, so it was very spacious for a group of 5. My only complaint was that the beds were pretty firm. The kitchen had everything we needed, and we used the grill every night. The patio was very beautiful, and the sound bar with TV was a nice addition. Location wise, it was only a 10 minute drive to downtown Truckee, and 30 to 40 minute drive to Lake Tahoe. It also has markets nearby, which was super convenient. The hosts were very communicative and helpful. Britta texted me the day of check in to make sure I have her number just in case. We had a little issue with the Nest thermostat, which Britta helped us resolve immediately. I would definitely stay here again for my next Tahoe trip!

Loved this house!
I rented this house with a friend and our kids, and it was absolutely perfect for our ski trip. It was clean when we arrived, with a great layout (a great room with couch and TV, contiguous with the kitchen and dining area, so we could all be together, then bedrooms/bathrooms down a hall). The smart TV was a great feature, as we could access our Disney+ and Netflix accounts, and the Bluetooth soundbar was fun for dance parties. The beds were huge and comfortable, with plenty of bedding to stay cozy. The yard was fantastic for snow play, and they provided saucers and shovels. It’s an easy drive up Northwoods to the ski area or down to head toward the lake. Britta was SO friendly and conscientious, checking on us when the weather shut down 80 and overall just bring helpful during our stay. We were very happy with this house and hope to visit again.

Cozy Little Cabin
This cabin was perfect for our family of 4. It is very comfortable and all of the appliances and electronics are newer and work well. The Weber gas grill on the back deck is large and awesome for barbecuing. Backyard has plenty of space for snow play. Best of all, the hosts are extremely nice and readily available for anything we needed during our stay. Thanks Britta & Blake!!

Great location, hosts and beautiful cabin!
We love everything about this cabin! It was perfect for our family of 5 (my husband, me and our 3 children ages 7, 5, 5). We went to Tahoe Donner as first time skiers (my husband and children) and the cabin is less than 3 miles from the ski resort. The cabin is well stocked with everything we needed (kitchen appliances, coffee maker, panini grill, salt/pepper, oil, etc.) for all of our meals. The kids loved the games, the bunk beds, TV. It is spacious (we didn't even use one of the bedrooms), clean, with ample space to hang our snow gear at the entrance of the cabin, bathrooms have shampoo/conditioner/body wash, soft towels and the bedrooms have warm comforters and soft sheets. As one reviewer mentioned, the driveway is steep and slopes down toward the house so may be a challenge without AWD and/or snow tires. Britta and Blake are quick to respond, went above and beyond to be helpful, and are such gracious hosts. We cannot wait to return to their cabin!

Cozy, comfortable home away from home!
Just returned from a restful weekend at Britta and Blake's cozy and comfortable home. Everything was clean and as described on their listing. Bedrooms were clean, thoughtfully equipped with humidifiers to counteract the dry mountain air, mattresses very comfortable and bathrooms supplied with full sized toiletries. Towels were plush and clean. Despite being located on a busy street, rarely did we notice any outside noise while inside the house. The kitchen was equipped with the essentials (spices, salt/pepper, oil, dish soap, pans/pots, cooking utentils), new large appliances, and some bonus small appliances (loved the panini press!). The living room was comfortable for lounging in front of the gas fireplace and watching TV, equipped with access to many apps for viewing shows. The kids enjoyed the many games available at the house as well. Outside, there was plenty of space for snow play and sledding (including sleds under the deck). The driveway is slanted downward from the main road, which made it a bit challenging to get out of without chains on our minivan, even with minimal snow on the ground. Thankfully, because of being on a main road, the snow plows come by frequently and the roads are usually clear once you get out of the driveway. Lastly, Britta and Blake were incredibly responsive and welcoming! We look forward to our next stay at their wonderful house!
