About this house rental

This is a one of a kind property. This has historical signifigance as the Women's Wyethia Garden Club in the early 1900s, with a big beautiful meeting room, a kitchen and bathroom that over the years has been remodeled and added on to. The upstairs entry level still has the large beautiful room with a gas fireplace, a surround sound stereo system and flat screen television. The dining area is located in this large room as well. The kitchen looks into the living/dining area and has full service dish ware and appliances. The back deck looks down onto the Truckee River and has access to the lower level and yard. Walking into this large room from what looks like a small front entry is truly breathtaking. There is a gas barbeque, patio table, and chairs on the deck.

Downstairs are the two bedrooms, each with their own bathroom. The master has a larger bathroom with large shower. The second bedroom has a lovely tiled bathroom and a terrific river view. Both bedrooms have private doorways to the exterior lower deck. The larger master bedroom has a flat screen television and dvd player. Full size washer and dryer are in the downstairs hallway.

I have just added a brand new king mattress and a brand new full mattress to the bedrooms, based on renters' suggestions for a more comfortable sleep. Love the Tuft and Needle mattresses! Both bedrooms now have full curtains for morning coverage....I like to wake up in the dark, but not everyone does!

Fall asleep listening to the sound of the Truckee River which is very actively flowing by. The location of this house is convenient for enjoying the charming historical aspects of downtown Truckee. A walk into town is often faster than a drive and a park! At the entrance to this one way street there is a coffee shop for a morning walk and coffee. All of the accouterments of this home are of high quality and tasteful design. All recreational activities are nearby. The home is listed with the Town of Truckee - Registration Certificate Number (RCN)1166g

It was a lovely three night stay. The backyard River and hearing the water flow was magic. Great bed, kitchen and living room with lots of windows.

This is our second year staying at this riverfront property. We love the location on the flowing river. It is a short walk into town as well as some beautiful trails across the river on the new iron bridge a few houses to the west. Northstar is a 20 minute drive. The house was clean and well organized. We love the wide open common area. The bedrooms has stunning views, and the bathrooms are clean and new with heated floors.

We first stayed in this VRBO in January 2026. We absolutely fell in love with it so much that we stayed two more multi night stays in early and late February to complete our winter ski trips. Needless to say it’s a great place. Very comfortable and cozy. Perfect location right in town, right on the river and close to the ski resorts. Dinny is a great host and we hope she continues to make her place available in the future. We will be back.

I can't count how many times we've stayed at the Truckee River House but I know I'll keep going back!Dinny goes out of her way to make sure her guests are ok and prepared for anything. Recently we were faced with a snow storm and closed highways. Dinny checked in with us every step of the way.
