Recent Truckee guest reviews

Five days relaxing here was not enough :) Everything was clean and well kept. Instruction for everything were clear and expectations communicated well. We had an amazing time. The hammock out back is perfect for listening to the birds and squirrels chattering in the trees. The stars at night are breathtaking!
Sara T. | Jul 2025
Wonderful place in a great area, two bedrooms, two floors, patios on both, nice kitchen, a bbq pit, stove, fridge, microwave, gas oven, the works, for a great price. Honestly you can’t beat it, the only thing I saw that needed attention was the chairs on the bottom patio (a housekeeper could probably come by a keep them clean for the guest). Other than that the family love the place. It’s literally a home away from home

Where is Truckee, CA?

Conveniently located near Interstate 80 and historic Donner Pass, Truckee is perhaps the most easily accessed Tahoe California town. Crystal blue views of Donner Lake (which has both public and private docks) welcome travelers as they approach from the west. Truckee rests just a few miles away from the state’s border with Nevada and north of Lake Tahoe, making it a perfect home base to sample all the area has to offer.

Tahoe Donner amenities

Guests staying at our Truckee rentals in the Tahoe Donner association will have access to the Trout Creek Recreation Center, Northwoods Clubhouse, Donner Lake Beach Club Marina, and Tahoe Donner Equestrian Center. Among these facilities are pools, spas, numerous sports courts, and more. Guests must present their member passes for access, and four people per pass will be admitted. Please note that a small fee is required to use some of the amenities. In summer, bring the clubs: in addition to the Tahoe Donner Golf Course, there are no less than 13 golf courses around Truckee.
