Great location and wonderful cottage!

Hans the property owner was an excellent communicator—he went above and beyond to answer my questions. There was record snowfall prior to our arrival and the snow removal and attention to the property was top notch. The bed was the most comfortable I’ve ever slept in for a vrbo. Highly recommend you book any of the properties Hans owns. We hope to stay again soon!

Wonderful Place

Loved it. Modernized and very comfortable, with enough “Old Tahoe” touches remaining to be great fun. Very responsive and conscientious hosts. Quiet and relaxing with the river next door. Never had a better Tahoe stay. Convenient location to all that Tahoe offers.

Old and no kitchen

This place has a grill, but doesn’t have a kitchen to prepare the food. Washing dishes or cooking anything else that’s not grill able is difficult. The bathroom is old and needs work. Lots of spiders inside and no thermostat to control the temperature, just a portable heater

A weekend that we’llNe

This charming cottage is in a quiet and peaceful setting, surrounded by aspen trees and a front view seat of the Truckee River. It has that feeling of nature that immediately puts you at ease, at least it did for us. The cottage is a perfect place for a couple. Their second rental property allows you to invite loved ones and have plenty of space between the two properties. If you have a California fishing license, it’s just a few steps and you’re right on the river and we even caught fish! This was everything we were looking for when planning an elopement. Hans and Karen were kind enough to let us elope on the property, and we married on the lawn right in front of river. It was everything we could have hoped for and more for our special day.

Love the sound of the river. Very quite - none of the houses around us had anybody there when we were there. It was a very sweet anniversary for us.

Room for improvement.

With very little work this place could be top notch. If they did it and left the price the same, vacancy would go to 0.

River sound is amazing

Getting away in Tahoe is always a treat. The sounds of the Truckee River was heavenly while sleeping. The cabin was Adorable and older. I didn't anticipate all the other cabins and homes around this one. It was a surprising treat that it was quiet! Not as much space around the cabin as I had thought but it served it's purpose! 😊

Sweet, cozy, delightful

I wanted to stay at the cozy cabin for so many more days! Hans is 100% responsive, everything was perfect. The Bridge 2 road is a bit tricky to find (although just about directly across 89 from Palisades turnoff) but only the first time.
