My son and I had the most relaxing time at this home that is right on the lake. It was very cozy with the fireplace and big breakfast nook table/window seat/lovely kitchen/big outdoor space with lawn/beach sand area/terraced yard/and the comfy bedrooms upstairs. There was some hair here and there on some furniture and the floors, but I'm not sure if it was humans or dog. We did bring our own small dog on the vacation, thank you dog-friendly rental, but the hair was longer, so I'm guessing from a pup before us. But that aside, I've already re-booked this home for a future trip because we loved it so much. Also a big highlight to be directly across the street from the famous/delicious Donner Lake Kitchen and the little grocery/general goods store. Just 8 minutes to downtown Truckee, 5 minutes to Safeway for bigger grocery run (yes instacart worked there too!), 11 minutes to Sugar Bowl Sugar Rush Tubing, and 10 minutes to Tahoe Donner downhill. Great spot all in all!
