    This house is by far the best VRBO I have stayed at. From family game nights in the kitchen/great room to yoga on the deck overlooking the lake, it was an absolutely amazing experience full of relaxation and fun. We are looking forward to another visit this winter.

    Nancy had a phone call with me before our visit to make sure we knew all we needed to about Truckee and the house and she was very responsive when we had a couple questions during our stay and made sure that we had everything we needed. The house was in the perfect location for us to easily explore Truckee and get to Palisades quickly to ski!

    The variety of spaces made this a good house for our multigenerational family--game and puzzle room, quiet places for reading, dining and deck with lake view, infinite places for hide and seek. We didn't turn a tv on all week.

    We were very impressed with the Fox Den cabin. It is all newly remodeled and very clean. It fit our family of 8 perfect with plenty of room to spare. The cabin was completely equipped with everything we needed, including baby gates, playpen, and high chair. We will definitely be coming back!
