Highly recommend the Hansel House
The Hansel House had everything we needed for an enjoyable stay in Tahoe Donner! The home was very neat and clean, and has plenty of room to spread out for larger parties. The neighborhood was incredibly quiet which was wonderful. The property owner was also quick to respond to any inquiries. We had an amazing stay, and we hope to come back to this home in the future!

Awesome house, great location
This house was perfect, well stocked kitchen and comfortable furniture. Great layout and dog friendly. We stayed for a week, worked from here (fast Internet) and enjoyed hiking and eating out. We had never stayed in the summer and it's such a fun place to be without snow. Would definitely stay here again.

Amazing place in great location!!
This is the rare VRBO that is way better than the pictures. Beautiful, comfortable home with tons of space and giant picture windows. It has everything you need and is in a very accessible location. Thank you for the great stay in Truckee! We had a blast. Love that it is dog friendly and lots of slow play area in front and back.

Perfect getaway
Wonderful stay in Truckee, the location was perfect, close to ski resorts and shops. The host was very responsive and was extremely accommodating...There was the large snow storm that made travel unsafe and he was willing to transfer it to the next weekend. There was plenty of space for us to lounge after a long day on the slopes. Everything was clean and working. Would definitely come back to stay.

Donner Get Away Weekend
Really enjoyed this home! Great set up inside and lots of space outside to play. The bonus game room downstairs was a hit for our young adult kids and the ability to have our pup join us, truly made this a family event. Thank you for being dog friendly. Also the owner was a great communicator and also allowed us to start our weekend earlier by letting us in before 5. Thank you! Highly recommend!

We Will Return!
The cabin is cozy, clean, and centrally located. We have three young sons who loved playing and sledding in the open space behind the cabin. We went on a few fun day trips within 45 miles of the cabin, including tubing and snowboarding at soda springs and a visit to the Fun Quest arcade at GSR in Reno.

Great comfortable, but basic cabin
First of all, Scott (the owner) is very responsive to all texts. The cabin is shy a few things which he will attend to. Perfect very basic cabin and GREAT for being able to take your dogs. Location is great in winter as well as summer.

Lovely cabin so close to Tahoe Donner Downhill ski resort. Perfect for our family "workation". The home had all the amenities that you could hope for including a well stocked kitchen, comfortable beds, and plenty of room for everyone!
