We really liked the place. One of the best VRBO's we stayed in. Easy access to Truckee, donner lake and Donner Pass. Lots of great hiking. The house itself is very nice with a great kitchen and living area. The outside is great with a big patio.

Nice home in great location.

Great home for a family holiday. Everything was very clean and comfortable. Reading previous reviews, I was skeptical, but upon arriving at the house I was pleasantly surprised by the cleanliness and quality. I recommend this house.

Amazing Home in Peaceful Location

The pictures don't do it justice. This is a huge home on a cul-de-sac at the top of a hill, with nothing but forest out the back window. Everything was clean and new, which is surprising for a pet-friendly property. The kitchen was amazing and well-stocked with cookware, dishes, and spices. The Master bedroom/bathroom felt luxurious. And there's so much space that everyone was able to spread out and do their own thing. The next time we head to Truckee not even planning on looking at other properties. This one was perfect for us! Highly recommend.

We HIGHLY recommend Hilltop Manor in Tahoe Donner!

Our family had the BEST time at the GORGEOUS Hilltop Manor in Tahoe Donner! The home is cozy and huge and the views are breathtaking! The kitchen has everything that you need to make delicious meals and there is a Safeway five minutes away which is very convenient. The property is located on a private court, so it's secluded and peaceful. We enjoyed taking walks around the neighborhood and we loved that we were so close to the paved trail that leads to downtown Truckee. Donner Pass Rd. has lots of fun stores and restaurants. We went ice skating with our teenagers at the outdoor rink and enjoyed playing board games and watching movies in the beautiful living room. If you are looking for a comfortable and beautiful home, we HIGHLY recommend you stay at Hilltop Manor in Tahoe Donner!

What a beautiful home and property! I’m not sure what we loved more - the inside or outside. Kitchen is well stocked, the master bed is very comfortable, and the living room is a great place to decompress after a day outdoors. Property manager responds quickly and is very helpful. We will definitely stay here again!
