8 / 10Excellent·Dec 2025
We had a wonderful time at our rental, set along the river with beautiful views and sounds. There was more than enough space for our group of 7, with plenty of well stocked amenities in the kitchen and bathrooms. There is WiFi and a smart TV. Lots of lines, blankets, etc.
A few items I would recommend would be to have an emergency preparedness kit on hand, the power went out several times and we had no candles, batteries, flashlights, etc.
The couches are well loved and slanted when you sit on them/uncomfortable. Cleaning supplies - a broom, counter cleaners, more of those items would be really good. And the grease filter needs to be changed on the range hood (when you're in the kitchen, the grease smell can linger).
8 / 10Excellent·Feb 2025
Perfect for large families. Everyone had their own rooom/bathroom, which was great. Kitchen was overstocked with cooking gadgets, but no room to store food. (5 rolling pins?) We were all really looking forward to the hot tub after skiing, but it only was able to heat to 99 degrees, which made it completely unusable. A warm bath outside was not ok. Overall, we made it work and had a great time, but some upkeep is needed.
10 / 10Outstanding·Jan 2025
We stayed in the beautiful home on a creek to ski Palisades and Alpine. It easily fit our family with teens and extended family. The kitchen and extra large dining table are great for meals and games. It has easy access to both ski resorts and to the Truckee river and west shore of the lake. Would for sure stay here again.
6 / 10Average·Feb 2024
Great layout for a large group and location for skiing multiple mts. Old lumpy beds and yard sale furniture. Ripped sheets. Kitchen lacking basics. Broken plumbing fixtures.
