This property is cozy and pet friendly. the fenced yard was great and allowed the dogs to play and explore. Other dogs in the neighborhood are super nice. I loved the location, too. We enjoyed skiing and relaxing in the hot tub afterwards while watching the dogs play.

I have to say the host was great in thier communication. The roads were closed on our original date so the host was kind enough to move our date to the right for no extra charge. We were only staying for one night after a day of snow tubing, for us the main amenity was the hot tub , mainly for our 6 year old daughter who had never got to experience one. Unfortunately, the hot tub looks like it was never even prepped for the winter. There was mold everywhere and the water was so cloudy and murky. Not fit for humans, it ruined the overnight stay. While the host refunded the cleaning fees, I would have gladly paid for my daughtwr to have the experiencewe set out for .

The cabin had a bunch of games, books and a great backyard with spa,bbq and gas fire pit perfect for roasting marshmallows with the kids. The host was easy to reach and responded quickly to any questions we had. I would 100% recommend this cabin and our family would love to stay here again.

My son and I enjoyed our stay at the facility. The check-in was straightforward. It was clean and had all of the expected conveniences. The kitchen was spacious with a full array of cookware, dishware and condiments. The refrigerator was large enough to accommodate all of our food items. The outside jacuzzi was a huge bonus with strong jets and a hot water temperature. The only drawback was the lack of the facility’s wifi. The owner mentioned that the problem might have been due to a recent power outage. Regardless, our own wifi source was sufficient.Overall, the price was reasonable & the experience was well worth it. The owner was very responsive to my questions. I would highly recommend it to our friends.

Family Trip to Truckee

My daughter lives in Truckee. My husband and I, along with my other daughter and her family visited Truckee to spend time together. This house was great. We spent a lot of time there just hanging out. It accommodated us all. We will definitely look at booking this house again on our return trips to Truckee.The house offered plenty of beds, the kitchen was well-stocked and plenty of games to keep my 4 year old granddaugher occupied. My only comment was that the games were is such disarray that if we had wanted to use them as intended, it would have required hours to separate all the pieces. However, my granddaughter used them but made up her own rules as we went along. Kept her busy.We will definitely stay at this house again in the future.

Ideal Truckee property

This property was perfect for our visit to Truckee! The kitchen had everything we needed to make meals for our family, including a propane grill on the deck. The beds were super comfortable and the house was spotless. We loved that this property was pet friendly so that our son, who lives in Truckee, could visit us there with his dog. A nice bonus is the hot tub and fire pit on the back deck! Mel was super easy to communicate with and responded almost immediately to any questions. We thoroughly enjoyed our visit to Truckee and staying in Mel’s Donner Bliss home. Would highly recommend to anyone, including family and friends. We will definitely be back!

Nice layout of rooms Clean Quiet neighborhood. Close to everything. We loved our stay. We did alert the owner that the surface of bathroom tub was very slippery. It was very easy to fall when wet and soapy. Use with caution or use a tub mat. That being said, I wouldn't hesitate to stay here again. Donner Lake is the place to be, and this place was terrific.

Excellent & cozy property for all ages

We booked Donner Bliss Cabin to get away the week of Thanksgiving and really wanted something close to things but away from the crowds of Tahoe. It was important for us to be able to bring our mini Goldendoodle Sadie. I chanced upon the Donner Bliss cabin hosted by Mel and Sal and it blew us away. It had EVERYTHING a family would need to get away and make memories. It’s cozy, inviting, clean and comfortable. Each person had space and the “kids” room comes fully equipped with tons of board games, fooseball, a Wii and a hit was the piano. The kitchen is FULLY stocked with utensils, pans, etc so much so that I was able to comfortably make a Thanksgiving dinner we all thoroughly enjoyed. If you are in need of groceries or drinks, Safeway is about a mile away. There are so many awesome things to mention but The Hot Tub, fenced in yard, Wood Burning Stove, full washer and dryer and ample supplies really made us feel at home. You only need to bring your clothes to this property, they provide everything else! Plus, it’s very easy to get to from any direction you’re coming from. We cannot wait to come back and explore in the summer time when we can roast marshmallows or use the BBQ. Mel was fantastic at communication and we felt at home every day. Thank you for trusting us to use your home and we really cannot wait to return!

We took are first family vacation with my niece. 5 adults, 1 kid and 2 dogs. It was a packed house but big enough that we had our space. I love that it had two backyard decl and one front porch. Super spacious. The neighbors were super friendly and so were their four legged fur babies. Mel was super nice and helpful. Always communicating. I would rent this again for another family vacation.
