Clean, Cozy, and Perfect for Exploring
I had a fantastic stay! The place was clean, cozy, and exactly as described. The location was perfect, making it easy to explore the area with our 2 dogs. I would happily stay here again and highly recommend it to others.

A Wonderful Donner Retreat
This was such a great place to stay. Landscaping at the house was so cute and front patio was comfy and perfect for morning coffee! The neighborhood was cute and lots of friendly neighbors. The house inside was comfy, charming, and clean! The kitchen was fully stocked with all the cooking utensils/bowls and oils/spices you could need. I loved the cozy rooms upstairs and the little reading nook! Oh and a game closet! My teens were so excited to find this! They also had an Outdoor shed that renters have access to with beach chairs, picnic baskets, beach towels! This saves a lot of car space so you don’t have to bring along! Location was perfect to walk to west end beach. The beach had volleyball, pickleball, water sport rentals and concessions! Perfect summer stay!

Amazing Stay by the Lake
"Absolutely amazing stay by the lake in a quaint neighborhood , with stunning views of nature. The cabin itself was cozy, clean, and well-equipped with everything we needed for a comfortable stay. The owner was incredibly friendly and helpful, making sure we had a fantastic experience. The peacefulness and tranquility of the area made it the perfect getaway from the city. We highly recommend this cabin rental to anyone looking for a relaxing and memorable vacation. We can't wait to come back!"

When it says lake, is it Lake Tahoe? Or Donner Lake? I don't know where Donner is in relation to Tahoe.

Answer:

This home is walking distance to Donner Lake, which is on the west side of Truckee.  This home is about 20 miles to Lake Tahoe.
