We really enjoyed our stay in your home in Soda Springs and our cross-country skiing adventures at Royal Gorge nearby. Your home was very spacious for the four of us and very well stocked. We're readers so we appreciated the natural light from all the windows in the living/dining area, the plentiful ceiling lighting, and the big green reading chair. (Okay, I imagine other people like it for watching TV, but we think it's a reading chair.) Thank you for providing such a lovely place for us to stay.

Guests have enjoyed their visits to my Donner Summit Vacation Home. Now that the winter season is slowly melting away, spring and summer activities such as rafting, hiking, boating, outdoor festivals and concerts are sure to entertain. If you're interested in a 2008-2009 ski season lease, contact me to secure your lease. Spring is delightful in the High Sierras. Year-round rentals available. --- Rebecca Boxberger, Soda Springs, CA
