The townhouse was perfect for our family of four. Everyone loved the arcade table that was used everyday. The charging stations in every room was very much appreciated! The house could use some updating and some additional kitchen items (utensils, small pots), but for the price and location it was just what we needed. We would definitely stay here again.
We spent many winter vacations in the area, and Melissa’s condo did not disappoint. It was very clean and the listing was accurate. If you are looking for a condo close to the slopes and have a larger party (we are a family of 6, including teenagers), this condo is awesome.
Overall we enjoyed our stay. Home was in a good location. The neighborhood was quiet and safe. The kids enjoyed playing in the snow right outside the door. Our only suggestion would be to have additional utensils and cookware in the kitchen. With 6 people we constantly ran out of utensils to eat and didn't have enough pans to cook everything at once
Stayed one night. The size of the condo was good and accommodated our family of five. Sleeping arrangement was good. Kitchen amenities were okay. Getting in and out of the condo was my only issue as the paths are not well maintained during the winter months. Caution is necessary and they are covered in ice.
Adorable place, easy access to the parking area- super quiet and clean! Would definitely stay here again- chose it based on closeness to Sugarbowl- Boreal was close to! Highly recommend
So cozy and perfect for the holiday season. We enjoyed everything the resort had to offer and loved the quite cozy vibe of the unit even more!!
Check in a breeze and host was a pleasure. 10/10 would stay again!!
We were so impressed with this condo! It was perfect for our family with a small children. The property owner was very helpful and responsive when we communicated with her. I’d highly recommend this condo for your Truckee vacation!
Great experience all around renting this condo. My boys loved the bunk beds and close proximity to skiing! Melissa was super responsive and helpful and we are definitely going to stay again :) thank you!!
We really enjoyed our stay, the condo has everything that a family would need, it is cozy and comfortable with great views. My kids especially appreciated the popcorn and the hot cocoa, the little touches make all the difference. Kitchen is well equipped if you decide to cook at the house. Place is very well maintained, the host was super friendly and very responsive. We will definitely book this place again for our next trip.
We booked again after our first stay and loved coming back to the same spot! Melissa was helpful and responsive and honored our request for a little extra time at checkout without much notice from us. This really is the perfect setup for our family (2 adults and 2 kids, 6 +4yr)
Thank you for a great weekend!
Clean and convenient, perfect for a ski weekend, thanks so much! Just a note, the unusual snow situation made for some tricky navigation into the condo - not so bad but I am glad we didn’t have tons of luggage or elderly parents along.
We have a large family and needed more space than our house could provide so I rented this condo for my daughter and her family to use. They really liked it and we will definitely use this again if the need arises.
The tail-end of the Biggest Winter at Tahoe Donner
This was a great base for my adult daughter and I for a couple of days of skiing at Tahoe Donner and environs--one day of spring skiing on closing day of the resort, and then a great day of touring in six inches of cold non-Sierra Cement. Access was a challenge due to the immense snowpack, but we figured it out. Access to the lifts couldn't have been any easier. Looking forward to a return next year.
Our family loved it here! We had a perfect view of the sunrise every morning & enjoying smelling that fresh mountain air. Although it was summer right next to the ski lodge, we had the best time exploring the trails just a quick drive away. Glacier Way Trailhead 24 was breathtaking & Donner Lake was less than 10 mins down the hill. The condo has quite a few stairs so be prepared! I would also recommend bringing your favorite egg pan as theirs needs replacing. Overall, we would definitely stay here again!
All in all, a very nice stay. The condo is well appointed, it is very clean, and the owner helpful. That said, prospective renters might be interested to know that the complex is located
on a hill and requires climbing a steep stairway for entry. Once inside, the unit is situated on four separate levels...definitely not for those with mobility issues.
Nice property but several issues made it not worth the high cost
The property was really nice and owner was really quick with communications. But, not necessarily the fault of the owner, their washing machine broke shortly before our arrival which was a key feature we were looking for when making the reservation. Resulted in a lost afternoon with hours at the laundromat. A new washer is expected next week so hopefully not a problem for the next person. Missing towels and no coffee provided was also a disappointment, but towels were dropped off a couple hours later and the owner did provide a small discount. Still not worth the nearly $500 we paid (even after the discount) for the one night we stayed there.
We had a great one night stay in this beautiful condo. Location is wonderful - easy walking distance to the ski resort. The condo is nicely appointed and spread out over ~4 floors (living/dining room and kitchen on 1st floor, 1st bed/bath/laundry on 2nd floor, TV loft on 3rd floor with comfy futon, and 2nd bed/bath on 4th floor). There were great views from every room, and we particularly enjoyed sitting at the dining table with a 270 degree view of the surrounding mountains. We didn't cook, so can't really speak to how well stocked the kitchen was (coffee maker worked!). There's a ton of snow up there right now, so we had a little trouble finding the unit when we arrived (path the instructions told us to turn left onto was snowed in) and getting to the front door (the alternate path that was cleared was slick and steep in areas - something to think about if you're visiting in a high-snow time like we did and have individuals with impaired mobility in your group). Would definitely stay here again!
