We had an enjoyable stay with my son and his family. The house was clean and comfortable and communication with Karen was excellent. Check in and checkout was easy. Our grandkids really enjoyed the large open space in the back of the house. Location was very good. For those with small children, there is no highchair or Pakn’play. Also, as guests of the owners, we were surprised by the very high price of the Tahoe Donner amenities.

This house accommodated our multigenerational family get-together perfectly. We had 5 adults and three children. There was plenty of room on the driveway for our three vehicles. It’s in a very pleasant residential neighborhood where we enjoyed taking evening walks. The whole house was in excellent condition and felt comfortable and homey. The children loved the bunk bedroom. There was a nice barbeque on the back deck which we put to good use. The nighttime temperatures dropped low so if you opened the windows up in the cooler times of the day you wouldn’t miss the air conditioning. Nearby Donner Lake was a big attraction for us with the swimming. Being summer it was somewhat crowed and best to start the day early to get parking and a good waterfront location. We went to the east end, but there are also piers on the north side that you can swim from and an additional beach on the west end, a little further drive. There is also a road that goes most of the way around the lake providing access to south side beaches which may be less populated. The road converts to a fire road for a short section so you can’t drive all the way around the lake. We also took the 25 minute drive to Lake Tahoe to see Tahoe City and went on to Kings Beach, a very pleasant outing. We had need to communicate with the hostess, Karen, prior to the trip and she was very responsive and helpful.

The house was beautiful and spacious for our family's needs. There were plenty of beds, bedding, and towels. The kitchen was well stocked with pots and pans, utensils, bowls, plates, coffee maker, etc. The owners allowed us to bring our dogs for a fee, and there were dog toys, bowls, but we had brought our own. There was a nice bbq on the wood patio in the back. The owners were very thoughtful and had dog leads outside so we could keep our dogs close while outside, but please don't use these. During the weekend, we saw a bear in the neighborhood, and a coyote came onto the patio one morning. Great for nature sighting, but our dogs would have been mincemeat. The only reason I didn't give this beautiful house 5 stars is because the smoke detector would go off almost every time we opened the oven, and it was very high on a vaulted ceiling; so fanning away the heat was impossible. We just had to wait it out.

Had a blast in Tahoe Donner! The Mougle house was great. Clean, comfortable beds, very well stocked kitchen even with tin foil and plastic wrap which most VRBOs don't stock and a mostly flat backyard woods for the young kids to play. They loved the foosball and game closet. Thankyou for a great stay!

Karen & Bob's place was perfect for three disabled veterans and me from Project Healing Waters. They spent two incredible days fly fishing the Little Truckee River. Each day it was great to come 'home' at our VRBO. It meant the world to them!

We had a great stay here with two young families! Kids ages 7-11. There was plenty of sleeping room for both families and all the kids. The bunk room was great for the kids. We enjoyed hanging in the living room next to the wood burning fireplace watching movies. The kitchen had everything you needed for cooking meals at the house. Our kids had a blast hanging in the backyard having snowballs fights and building snowmen. Check in process was smooth. The host was great and reached out directly for best point of contact. We would book another stay here in the future.

Our family of ten had an amazing time in Truckee. The house fit 6 adults and 4 kids perfectly. The neighborhood was great. Tahoe Donner has so much to do. The owner checked in on us the 2nd day and was very responsive. Would stay there again.

This is a very pet friendly property and beautiful, quiet neighborhood. The driveway also is flat which would be great in the winter. We had 3 young kids in our group who were super excited about the bunk beds but they had rock hard super cheap mattresses that no one could sleep on so that was a bummer for our group.

Our family of eight stayed in this Tahoe Donner home while we attended my nephew‘s wedding, which was held at nearby Lake Mary. It was the perfect accommodation for our family to be able to spread out, have quality time together, and enjoy the beauty of Tahoe. We chose this home specifically because my 90-ish-year-old parents were among our party. It had very few steps at the entrance, with the main bedroom downstairs, and the common areas had mostly wide-open spaces, where my dad could freely speed around with his walker. But his favorite part was sitting out on the back deck amongst the huge, gorgeous trees in the quiet serenity and the amazing clean mountain air. More than anything, owners Karen and Bob were extremely gracious and accommodating and ensured everything was perfect. We would not hesitate to recommend this home and will likely return and visit again soon!

Can’t thank Karen enough for the hospitality. Highly recommend staying here if you are visiting Truckee. Beautiful location and a wonderful time with my family!

We had a wonderful time at this home. The location was great being lower down on the hill so it’s closer to Truckee and grocery stores etc. The house was very comfortable and had everything we needed. Communication with the owner was great also.

8.0 / 10.0

Communication with the owner was smooth. The house was comfortable and well-maintained. It’s a pet-friendly rental and we did end up with dog hair on our clothes (even though we didn’t bring pets) so I guess vacuuming could have been more thorough. We ended up hand-washing dishes a lot because there weren’t enough bowls or mugs to accommodate our group for more than one meal, but that’s not a big deal- just something we noticed. We also had trouble with the TV’s but that could have been user error. We loved the location in Tahoe Donner and enjoyed playing and snowshoeing in the open space behind the house!

The house is cozy and a great location. Easy to get in and out, and like they said the driveway is a plus for winter. Tahoe Donner even plowed the driveway! Everything in the house worked fine, and Karen was easy to communicate with.

This is a perfect cabin in Truckee for an extended family get away. It has 4 bedrooms, a foosball table, a closet of games and puzzles, a beautiful large deck with a BBQ, a well stocked kitchen, and it is located in a beautiful wooded, serene neighborhood minutes from Truckee. It also provides access to a recreation center with a pool during the summer and a sledding area during the winter. The owners are super responsive and helpful. We look forward to staying here again.

I try to go every winter with my family to Tahoe, and we really enjoyed our stay. My husband and I have a 20 month old son, my mom came with us, and my sister and her family (husband and 2 boys, 10 and 14). It was quite perfect as my sister and her family took the upstairs 2 bedrooms and bath and we took the downstairs remaining 2 bedrooms. The place was spacious and clean. It also had a foosball table where we all enjoyed playing with each other. The location was super close to Safeway, Tahoe Dave's and Sugar Bowl (where we went to go ski/snowboard). Karen was very communicative and responsive. We had a great time! Highly recommend.

We very much enjoyed our weekend away at this cabin! Great location to town, peaceful and quiet neighborhood. Exactly what you’re looking for when you want to get away. Owner was very responsive. The only con we felt was that the cleaning needed a little more attention to detail. Other than that we would happily rent again and definitely recommend!!

We had an amazing and absolutely memorable trip here in July 2023! A stunning home (from the interior to furnishings) surrounded by the tranquility. A short drive to Donner Lake and close proximity to Truckee restaurants and shopping. The home was clean, tastefully decorated, beds were comfortable and had everything we needed in the kitchen. We enjoyed dining on the spacious deck. The host was very responsive and a delight to communicate with. We hope to stay here in the future when we visit Truckee.

This cabin is perfect!! Well maintained, clean, spacious, and comfortable. Well equipped kitchen with everything you need. The pictures really do not do it justice. The interior is very, very nice. The outdoor space is great, too. Beautiful deck and a huge open space. Our kids (7 and 10) LOVED the outdoor space and spent a lot of time just playing out there. The host is lovely and accessible. Thank you for sharing your home with us! We hope to be back next year.

Stayed with my wife and two young boys. They enjoyed the foosball table and we all appreciated the separate space for kids upstairs. Very clean, spacious, comfortable and functional. Was nice to have access to the garage for parking and storing ski gear. Would stay here again.

A well loved and maintained cabin

A well loved and maintained cabin

When staying in a rental property, you can always tell the difference between one that is an "income property" and one that is actually used by the owners. You can tell this one is well loved by how clean, well equipped, and generally nicely furnished it is. We spent four nights with 4 adults + 4 kids, and had more than enough room. All the kids slept in the bunk room, and the pullout trundle in the downstairs bedroom served as overflow when a kid needed some space to themselves to sleep. The backyard area was sloped just enough to build a long sled run (150+ feet) that kids from other cabins started coming out to join in the fun. Minor amenity I really appreciated - the sound system was far better than expected for a rental property...just plug in your mobile device into the receiver's USB port and you can stream to what seemed to be a 3 speaker + sub setup. Good for listening to your mountain tunes! (or also in our case...the kids listening to the Encanto soundtrack every day) I'd come back to this cabin for many reasons.

Lovely Tahoe stay

My friends and I were in Tahoe for a ski trip, and Karen's place was perfect for us. The house had ample room and bed space, everything was clean and the rooms were warm. Karen was also a generous host who was flexible with our check in and check out times. We had a great time and would love to come again.
