Working with the host was great. They were very accommodating in switching the reservation over to my wife's contact information. VRBO won't make any changes once reservation established. The residence was nice and quaint. Loved the view of Donner Lake from the deck and pier access across the street. Definitely recommend bringing your own pillows. Shower is very small. Very relaxing.

Very cute cabin and was nicely furnished with wonderful views of Donner Lake. We really enjoyed the wood decor and vaulted wood ceilings. The bedrooms were cozy and the loft was very comfortable. The outside deck made for comfortable mornings sipping coffee and evenings having dinner viewing Donner Lake. The cabin has pretty everything a family would need to feel at home. My only suggestion would be to update the sheets to cotton and some of the pots/pans are a bit tired. Overall, a very nice place and would definitely come back.

We’re so glad you enjoyed your stay at our cozy cabin, Joe! The views of Donner Lake really do make for a perfect backdrop, especially while sipping coffee on the deck or enjoying dinner in the evenings. It’s wonderful to hear that you appreciated the wood decor and the comfort of the loft and bedrooms. Thank you for your suggestions regarding the sheets and cookware; we always value feedback that helps us enhance our guests' experience. We’d love to welcome you back for another stay, perhaps to enjoy more mornings on the deck or explore the area further.

A truly enjoyable setting. The facility was clean and well appointed with plentiful kitchenware, dishes, towels and linens. Cold natured may want to bring extra blankets.Fireplace worked ceiling fan could not figure out. TV and Cable one day the next day was not functioning. Could not get DVD to work. Suggestion: Tag remotes with an ID that indicates what it controls or is associated with and instructions on how to use.Already planning a return trip.
