So there is lots of room. The driveway is a little steep but not difficult. Once you are parked, it is a short walk to the front door with NO stairs to get to the main floor.. The electronic lock was the easiest to use ever. The kitchen was well equipped, the beds comfortable with extra blankets and pillows that we didn't need because of a heat wave (82 degrees during the day). But because we were at 6,000 ft +, we were very comfortable at night even without A/C. It was a perfect time to enjoy the Tahoe area. ##### Kathleen G.

Dec 29, 2021 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Great place with amazing hosts! My family and I went up to spend Christmas in Tahoe. There were 9 adults, 2 kids, and an old fur baby. It was a spacious place where we all had a comfortable spot to sleep. Fireplace was nice and cozy. Lots of kitchen tools, which I think is convenient. Everyone enjoyed the Pac-Man game! There was a ton of snow so we had a good time in the front driveway building snowman’s and turning the driveway into a small sledding hill. FYI the driveway is a slight downgrade to get to the house. They had a lot off helpful things that we needed like shovels for the snow, snow melt, saucers to go sledding! It was great. There’s also a nearby trail (walking distance) where we went snowshoeing. That was super convenient as we didn’t have to drive anywhere. Tahoe donner is also super close by. Unfortunately, due to the weather the power went out so it had to close and we couldn’t go. We got caught in the winter storm and couldn’t leave the day we were scheduled to leave. Luckily when we reached out to Kelvin we were able to stay longer. He wanted nothing more than for us to be safe and did everything he could to help make that happen. It was a huge relief knowing we had a place to stay! There were unfortunate incidents (out of everyone’s control) like power outages and internet being down due to the storm, but throughout our trip, which turned into an “adventure”, Kelvin was an absolute amazing host! He was incredibly responsive and tried to help in any and all possible ways. With everyone stressed out given the storm and our circumstances it was such a relief to know that we were able to depend on Kelvin for help and suggestions. You can’t go wrong staying here and as Kelvin as your host!! ##### Connie T. Stayed 3 nights in Dec 2021 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Autumn C.

Sat on the deck for dinner every night, enjoying quiet evenings relaxing together after hiking in the mornings, spending most days at Donner lake relaxing, kayaking and sailing. Love the proximity of the house to truckee and Donner lake, away from the hustle and bustle of lake Tahoe. Having guest passes to donner lake marina was great. Communication with owner was great, received email from him the day before arriving, with details about getting into the house and things we should know. Likewise, received email day before checking out on details for checking out. Will definitely rent this house again next time. ##### Yann B.

(Friday and Saturday) The first thing I want to mention is the great communication from Kelvin and Carol. They explained everything so well, offered suggestions for our visit and even offered to let us use their raft for our annual river float. The home is a great location. Close to the amenities of Truckee-Donner-Squaw and Tahoe, but a world away with its privacy. Pulling in to the driveway it is obvious the attention to detail they put into maintaining their home and making it comfortable for guests. Inside, this place is CLEAN! If you tried, you would not find an area that was not clean, neat and organized. As a professional Chef I was especially pleased with the kitchen appliances, wide array of quality pots, pans and utensils. The living room is so inviting with the huge TV and viewing options. The three bedrooms are all large with very comfy beds and bedding, Lots of room to lay out your clothes and personal belongings. The upstairs loft is great! I imagine it would be the choice hangout for younger kids. My personal favorite place to relax is the huge front deck. There is a massive back deck as well that one of the couples enjoyed for its privacy. Checking in and out was simple and easy. I am sure that we will stay here again. Hopefully for more days! ##### Robert P.
