Great home with good space!

We absolutely LOVED our stay at this cozy mountain home in Truckee. From the moment we walked in, it felt warm, inviting, and even more beautiful than the photos — they truly don’t do it justice. The home was extremely clean and very well maintained, which made everything feel comfortable and cared for.The layout was perfect for our group (6 adults), with three spacious bedrooms and two and a half bathrooms, giving everyone plenty of room to relax. The fireplace made the living area feel wonderfully cozy, and the den/office was a great bonus offering a quiet, private space when needed.The outdoor patio was one of our favorite spots. The seating was comfortable, the ski lift chair was such a charming touch, and the views from every window and angle were absolutely stunning. It felt like being wrapped in mountain scenery.Inside, the décor was beautifully done with a thoughtful mountain theme that made the whole home feel special. The kitchen was incredibly well stocked — glasses, mugs, dinnerware, pots, pans — everything we needed to cook meals and feel completely at home.This home exceeded our expectations in every way. Cozy, spacious, beautifully decorated, and perfectly maintained. We would stay here again in a heartbeat.

We were so pleased to have found Gayle's Northwoods house for a recent stay last minute stay in Tahoe. Booking process: super easy and very quick communication. Location: super convenient! Donner is conveniently located to many ski resorts and one of our kids was able to take a lesson at Tahoe Donner which is literally a 6 minute drive from the house. My husband went to Northstar, just 25 minutes away. Lots of convenient stores nearby in Truckee and easy access from freeway. House: Spacious, super clean and very comfortable. Nicel decorated. There is a large great room with a gas fireplace, comfy sofas, and a very nice office/den that one of my kids and i used for remote school/work. Kitchen is well appointed, great pots for cooking, large fridge, tons of counter space, new appliances. Bedrooms are all upstairs, very comfy beds with nice linens and bright windows with great views. Clean bathrooms with plenty of privacy. Kitchen opens up to a very large backyward / open space. Kids had a blast playing in snow. We've rented many properties in Tahoe over the years and this is one I will definitely come back to. The owner was extremely easy to communicate with and super accommodating. Most important feature was how clean the house was which we loved. Note: you definitely need AWD or 4WD during the winter if there is snow on the ground or ice. And follow instructions on how to get up driveway (make u-turn and turn left into drive way). You'll need some momentum if there is snow or ice, driveway is a bit steep.
