I don’t know what they could do to this house to make it look even more beautiful. We had an amazing stay here. The kitchen was stocked with everything a chef and baker could possibly want. The views from almost every room in the house were stunning. We had lunches and dinners out on the patio and movie nights in the family room. I saw some other reviews that mentioned no cable. This is common in the area for houses. The hosts left very good instructions for how to connect with cable through YouTube and we were able to set up all of our streaming services. So there was no problem whatsoever. I can’t wait to return to this house with friends and family. ##### Christine D. Stayed 3 nights in Jun 2023 ### 6/10 Okay #### Mike C. Aug 6, 2022 Liked: Check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Beautiful Views, Lacked Amenities for Price Paid House was plenty spacious and had beautiful views of Lake Donner. For $600 per night, comfortability was a bit of an issue. The house lacked amenities. We had to go purchase TP (sandpaper) soap (size of a matchbook), shampoo (none), conditioner (none), paper towels, etc. Furniture and beds were uncomfortable and water pressure was low. It was also a warm week so we kept windows open at night and closed them around 10am and it was uncomfortably hot in the house by 2pm. For $300-$350 per night this is a great place to stay. Side note: nothing is really open in the Donner Lake area Mon-Thurs. ##### Mike C. Stayed 3 nights in Aug 2022 ### 8/10 Good #### Claire S. Feb 20, 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### The perfect weekend getaway! This house was exactly what we wanted for our trip to donner lake. It was beautiful, clean, spacious, and very well furnished. The beds and couch was all very comfortable and we felt right at home. There are a couple of things that could make this house perfect, and they’re why I’m giving 4/5 stars. The lighting in the entire house is harsh, white light bulbs. If you’re anything like my group, lights set the entire vibe and these lights were so harsh. Thankfully we found 2 lamps in the house that had warm light bulbs and set those up in the living room, but it was too dark. I would highly recommend to the owners to swap the bulbs for soft neutral or warm lights! Secondly, the stairs that lead from the deck don’t go all the way down to the road so we had to walk down the back road to get to the water. Still doable, but would have been much easier access if the stairs went all the way! Overall I would still highly recommend this house and I will definitely book again! ##### Claire S.
