• Big house, nice neighborhood, some updates would make it better

  3/5

  The house is located in a nice Tahoe Donner neighborhood. We enjoyed walking the dog in the evenings, admiring the nearby cabins. The house is huge, it seems good for big parties. View from the back patio towards the golf course a bonus. The property is rather old, and while some areas (kitchen, bathrooms) have been updated and are fully functional, others (doors, windows, carpet) look dated. The rooms had a light old-house smell. The carpet going down to the basement and some of the bath rugs are disgustingly stained and creepy. The basement has been adapted as a sleeping area, but it's dark and not very enticing. The upper rooms are better. The house and deck are painted dark brown, different from the pictures, which is not my favorite color.The cleaners were not ready when we arrived, but the property managers were pretty easy to reach to discuss the issue. They sent us some goodies to apologize for the incident, which I thought was a nice gesture.Overall, we enjoyed our vacation here, but I don't think this would be my first choice when I return to Tahoe Donner.

  Manager's Response:

  We're glad that you enjoyed your stay here overall, though we're sorry you weren't completely satisfied with this property. We followed up with the homeowner who let us know that the carpet on the stairs has just been replaced. He also added three new lamps on the ground floor, to help brighten things up a bit. We appreciate your feedback as it helps us to improve for future guests!

• Family friendly cabin!

  5/5

  We stayed here over the 4th of July weekend and had a wonderful time. The home was very clean upon entry, there were sets of towels on each bed and the kitchen was fully stocked with dinnerware and appliances. We had 4 kids ages 3-6 years old and they had a blast in the game room, outside deck and the main family room. We would definitley recommend this home for families with kids!

• Large, clean, tons of sleeping options

  5/5

  Choosing a rental is always a gamble, but our stay here was beyond my expectations. The house was clean, comfortable and great for gathering together. The street is full of nice cabins, and has a great deck on the back. The owner, Jim, was friendly and there if we needed anything at all.

• OK/Nice, but not great

  4/5

  PROS: Great location, quiet neighborhood, lots of space and beds, views out the backyard, dogs allowed, well stocked kitchen.CONS: Place needs a deep cleaning (as other reviewers noted), and carpets are grimy. The house manual needs updating, with troubleshooting. The manual said "turn on gas fireplace" to start it. Well 5 adults, 1 hour later could not get either fireplace to work. It was 56 degrees when we walked in. Technician came the next morning and fixed it, but the remotes for the fireplaces don't work either, so no thermostat capability. The manual also says check-out is 11am, but email instructions say 10am. The hottub was like a warm bath, even set at 104 for 24 hours, it didn't come to temperature. Beds are OK, not great.While we enjoyed our stay, we wouldn't rent again. Overall, didn't feel the value for the cost.
