Truly a gorgeous home! Stunning views of the mountains, Donner Lake, and the forest -- we saw coyotes and bunnies running by through the snow (at different times, whew). We had a fantastic time skiing at Tahoe Donner and tubing at the snowplay area, both very nearby.
Cooking was a delight in the ultra-updated kitchen with amazing features and lots of tools.
Each bedroom has its own bathroom, all of which have been nicely updated -- we appreciated the towel and seat warmers.
The easy, flat, circular driveway and a spacious garage helped a lot as the snow was piling up outside (be prepared for steep streets though).
We reported some things that needed fixing but didn't get much response during the busy holiday week. The main disappointment was that the we couldn't use the pool table because the tips were broken off the cues. The ping pong net was broken, too, but we put together a temporary fix and had a lot of fun playing. And we had to do a weird workaround to get the smart hot water heater to give us hot water in the kitchen (by running a shower first) -- it would have been good to get some answers there. Also, the can openers were broken and there were no kitchen towels, but we had brought both so no problem there.
Overall, we loved the house and had a great getaway!
