Modern Luxury, Open & Spacious. Ideal for Families

MonikaRating, 5 stars1 month ago
Great modern Tahoe home in private neighborhood. Well stocked kitchen with everything one might need for cooking a meal. Nice dining table with room for everyone and comfortable living room space. King size bedroom does not have a private bathroom but rather the queen size bedroom has a private bathroom, so it’s a little confusing which room is considered the master bedroom.

South Tahoe Home away from Home | Up to 9 Guests

AraRating, 5 stars2 days ago
Renzo's place is peaceful and quiet. Everything was as described. The beds were comfortable and the bedding was well made. It took a while for the hot water to come out, but it was not a big deal. The kitchen was modernly remodeled and very bright with the skylight. We did not go out to the backyard, but it was very large and bluebirds greeted us. I was surprised to see many spices in the kitchen. All the rooms were clean and the front door was easy to access. Thanks to Renzo, a kind host and artist.

2BR Charmer in Old Southwest Reno

CandaceRating, 5 stars3 days ago
This is our 4th year staying at Jack’s when we are in Reno. We love the home, location and overall charm of this home. The home is always clean and has extra little touches like water bottles, snacks, shampoo and conditioner in the shower, and plush towels. This year the mattresses seem new and there were lots of new decor, and curtains in the bedrooms. We will definitely stay here again.

Quaint Quiet Home with Large yard in Old SW Reno

CherylRating, 5 stars6 months ago
A very nice older home in a quiet neighborhood. It was exactly what we needed for our few days in Reno. The fenced in yard was perfect for our dog, but just be mindful if there are other tenants in the back units they will be right next to you and therefore no privacy if you’re in the backyard. But I give it a great rating as it served our needs perfectly. The host Jo is extremely responsive and accommodating and we were able to check in early

We just stayed at a wonderful cabin in the woods overlooking Lake Tahoe. The cabin had two single rooms with queen beds upstairs that were so comfortable and clean. The downstairs had a great kitchen with lots of room to cook and great appliances. It had a nice dining area and table to sit and eat your food. The tv was awesome lots of apps to watch tons of current movies and series. Loved that so much. Everything was clean and easy to use. I would definitely stay at the enchanted family owned amazing cabin. James

Truckee Valley Cabin Retreat

MeganRating, 5 stars1 month ago
We had a wonderful time in Melissa's cabin! This area was very secluded and it was exactly what we were hoping for a weekend getaway. Our dog loved the area and the snow! Although it wasn't our intention to intrude on Melissa's day, our dogs went out to find each other and they got along great! It was a wonderful experience and we would love to come back again sometime.

EAGLE - MODERN CABIN AT CONSTELLATION CREEK

NicoleRating, 5 stars8 months ago
Wonderful place to unplug and relax. We loved everything especially the record player in the room. We listened to every album. They love dogs and my pooch had so much fun pretending he is a big mountain dog. We will definitely be back to enjoy more of the area. It most certainly is rustic but not roughing it. My favorite way to travel. Plus the hot springs are nearby! So much outdoorsy fun to help you feel alive ❤️

Gerald’s place was so comfortable and cozy. They made us feel right at home and were extremely easy to work and communicate with. The cabin is close to great food and things to do, but it was also so relaxing to light a fire and watch the snow fall. We would absolutely love to visit again.

Dollar Point Fun w/ 2 Master Bedrooms/Amenities

CarrieRating, 5 stars7 months ago
Perfect home for a family, couples or a friends getaway. Location is perfectly placed to downtown Tahoe City and minutes away from river rafting or Kings Beach. Quiet neighborhood with nicely manicured homes. Access to the garage which makes parking easy, and not limited. Home has everything you would need from comfortable beds, kitchen essentials and games for all ages. Views of the lake are limited (growing trees) but just enough to sit on the deck on the outdoor furniture for coffee, meals or evening beverages. Pet friendly home that doesn’t smell like one!!! Donna and Josh were amazingly responsive to everything, with zero delays in response time. One of the rafts was missing a plug and Josh went to three different stores to make sure we had one before leaving for the river. Plenty of outdoor lake toys as well as a ping pong table in the garage. We WILL be renting again and be sharing this location with friends and family as I am sure they will enjoy it as much as we did.

Mountain Escape a true Serene Retreat

SydneyRating, 5 stars3 weeks ago
We had a nice stay and appreciated all the guidance on how to best heat the home since it was storming all weekend and it's always challenging to manage heat across three levels. Our only issue was that part of our reason for booking was a two car garage (since we were expecting lots of snow) and only one car can park in the garage.

Lori’s place was great for me and my family. Super convenient, great location, especially if you’re making plans for Heavenly Village. It’s literally a 5 minute walk. Lots of stuff around in the heart of South Lake Tahoe. Close to many stores and restaurants/bars and grills. Lori herself was very sweet and friendly. Enjoyed all our time there for the week. Home is very clean, comfortable, and cozy. Home away from home for sure! Would definitely recommend and stay again! Mahalo Lori!

Your guide to Truckee

Welcome to Truckee

Nestled in the Sierra Nevada against the majestic backdrop of the Tahoe National Forest, Truckee comes by its frontier vibe honestly. Fortune seekers of all types made their way to this mountain outpost, from Gold Rush hopefuls en route to nearby mines to men seeking work in the booming logging industry. In 1867 the first train rolled into town on the newly forged Central Pacific Railroad, and the passengers who spilled forth were greeted by a rough-and-tumble boomtown populated with saloons and gambling halls. Truckee’s well-preserved downtown, with its brick storefronts and wooden sidewalks, is now home to boutiques, candy stores, and art galleries. Not that Truckee has gotten too highfalutin’ for its own good: this is a place where hearty diner fare lives comfortably next to farm-to-table prix-fixe menus. More than just a picturesque mountain town, Truckee is an outdoor recreation mecca situated at the nexus of several top-notch ski resorts, numerous lakes, and pristine forests criss-crossed with scenic hiking trails.


The best time to stay in a vacation rental in Truckee

Thanks to Truckee’s advantageous location, there are activities to enjoy here every season. During the hot summer months the streets, vacation rentals, nearby lakes, and parks course with visitors. In fall, the temperatures dip along with the crowds and the surrounding forests turn brilliant shades of yellow and red. Winter means snow and a second high season, as people flock to the nearby slopes or to traverse the powdery landscape on cross-country skis and snowshoes. Spring can still look a lot like winter in Truckee, but as the snow starts to thaw, waterfalls spring to life.


Top things to do in Truckee

Donner Lake

Lake Tahoe is the celebrity body of water around here, but smaller Donner Lake has its own charm, such as a more secluded atmosphere. A clear freshwater gem ringed by conifers and a few impressive estates, this lake is ideal for lazy days of sunning and swimming. If you’re feeling more active, kayaks, canoes, and jet skis are available to rent shoreside. The West End Beach Park has BBQs, horseshoe pits, and volleyball, and a concession stand slinging burgers, ice cream, and other treats.

Donner Memorial State Park

The name Donner is unavoidable in this area, and is attached to part of the region's darkest chapters. In 1846 a wagon train called the Donner Party attempting a shortcut through the mountains near Truckee became stranded during an unforgiving winter. Only 45 of the 91 travelers survived. A visitor center and museum displays artifacts of the doomed pioneers. Outside, a memorial statue sits atop a 22-foot granite base — the same height as the snow drifts that fateful winter.

Old Jail Museum

This circa-1875 jail once housed the brawling baddies of historic Truckee. With 32-inch stone walls, steel ceilings, and doors weighing nearly 200 pounds, it is a veritable fortress. The jail was restored in the 1970s and is now operated as a museum displaying historic photographs and artifacts significant to the town’s history, including antique ski equipment. The museum is open seasonally, so check ahead before you go.
