We had a blast at this cozy cabin located close to the ski slopes. Plenty of space for the kids. We all enjoyed the hottub, playing in the snow out back and proximity to amenities.
Lovely house to stay in for our family of 5. I’m so impressed with the owner’s documentation for staying there. I emailed him with a couple questions before we left and he responded right away. The house had everything we needed. I’d definitely stay again
Our family of 5 thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Peaceful Pines. The home was clean, conveniently located, hot tub was amazing, and we had everything we needed. We were worried about the storm and wanted to arrive early and Michael was extremely helpful and accommodating. He allowed us to check in early and provided us with helpful tips prior to and during our stay. We would recommend the home and surely stay here again!
Very nice and clean. Big kitchen. Hot tub was awesome. Setting is beautiful. Clear instructions on what to do and how to use everything. Fully stocked with pots, pans, bowls, etc. great refrigerator. Full 2 car garage and extra parking made it very convenient.
Peaceful Pines had everything we needed for a weekend snow trip with 4 adults and 4 kids. We tubed at the Tahoe Donner SnowPlay and it was perfect for first time tubers. We had a great weekend!

Beautiful cabin in great location
The place was great. Plenty of space and a warm fire made it extremely comfortable. The hot tub out back was perfect for relaxing after a days skiing.
Would highly recommend!

Relaxing in fresh mountain air
Very comfortable and welcoming. “Just like a home away from home”. Warm and cozy!
Close to downtown Truckee with shod and restaurants yet within a 30-40 minute drive to Kings Beach and Boca Reservoir.
A favorite was a picnic at the lake at Donner State Park and a walk on the lake trail.
Definitely a must: a visit to the Emigrant Trail Museum and Pioneer Monument which details the history of the Donner Party and the settlement of the Truckee valley

Fantastic Mountain Getaway - Outstanding Property
Don't usually do reviews, but for Peaceful Pines I will...
This place is absolutely fantastic! It's a perfect mountain getaway. Amenities are too many to list, big screen TV's (2), Outdoor Hot Tub, Gas Barbeque, Hammock under the trees... Property is in perfect spotless condition. All appliances are new and modern, including a washer and dryer (great + for when your playing in the mountains). Location is perfect: golfing, tennis, lake activities are all within 5-10 minutes. Also 15 minutes from North Lake Tahoe (Kings Beach & Sand Harbor, both must see's). The neighborhood is very quite and perfect for evening or afternoon strolls. Downtown Truckee is just 5-minutes down the hill and is filled with quaint shops and a great mix of restaurants. Enjoyed several great meals including Dinner at Zano's (great pasta's and pizza w/huge portions), El Toro Bravo (great carnitas and margarita's) especially enjoyed Jack's On The Track's - featured in Diners, Drive-Ins, & Dives (I'm a big fan) my Triple Decker Club Sandwich was fantastic. We also enjoyed a couple of great days at Donner Lake. The water is crystal clear, and we enjoyed kayaking along with some time on jet ski's and a ski boat as well. I'm just hitting on a few of the things we did over a few days, the opportunities and options are endless. Would recommend to all family, friends, ect. ect.. This place is exactly as advertised plus more.

Darling weekend getaway spot
My family and I traveled up to Truckee recently and loved our stay at Peaceful Pines. The place had plenty of space for our family and the location was convenient to town as well as Donner Lake. The owners were easy to coordinate with and we will definitely be coming here again soon!

Loved Peaceful Pines - what a beautiful place!
We stayed at Peaceful Pines for a week while my parents were visiting. It was a very comfortable home nestled in the beautiful pines above Truckee. We saw deer daily and enjoyed watching all the wildlife around us. The home is well appointed and easily accommodated our family of 5. I highly recommend it!

Not we expected
House was not well insulated. Could hear everything from upstairs. Beds are uncomfortable. Just was not impressed at all.
Response from VrboOwner on 27 Mar, 2020
We appreciate the feedback that will allow us to improve. Thank you.
Regarding the insulation and hearing noises from upstairs-when we purchased the home it had very thick padded wall to wall carpet. That carpet did an excellent job muffling noises between the floors. The carpet also did an excellent job attracting every dust and pollen particle in the forest. Unfortunately, no matter how many times a carpet is vacuumed, it remains filled with allergens. Our family has allergies and we made the choice to remove the carpet to reduce allergens. That is also why we do not allow pets or smoking. It was a trade-off that we hope others will appreciate.
As for the uncomfortable beds, this is the first we have heard of this issue. We will examine the beds closely for repair or replacement.

Loved it! Super Clean, lots of amenities
This is a very charming home. Spacious for the size, super clean and well-organized! My family enjoyed the peace and quiet of Truckee and all the amenities of Tahoe Donner. Easily accessible, about 7 minutes from downtown Truckee. The owner was very accommodating to our needs. We are definitely coming back to this great find!

Winter Wonderland
We ended up being there during a very stormy weekend and felt the place was well suited for all kinds of weather. I especially appreciated the covered walkway from the front door to the garage. It made unloading and loading much more managable in the snow/rain. The hot tub was a definite bonus as well! We will be back!

Great place for two families!
We enjoyed our stay at Peaceful Pines very much. With 4 adults and 4 kids, the house was the perfect layout with enough space for all of us to spread out comfortably. The hot tub is nice and was fun to use in the snow. The house was clean and well-appointed, with comfortable beds. The location was perfect as we were going to Tahoe Donner Ski area only a few minutes away. The owner was very responsive to questions. We all wanted to stay longer!

They provide best service
I would highly recommend this one. We have two family stayed there 1/23-1/25/2015. The owner gave us VERY detail information from their web site with all local people (he lives in bay area now I believe) suggestion so you don't have to worry about where to go, what to eat, and all possible information you may want to know. There is a big book in the kitchen providing you all useful information. Compare the price, service, and house condition, they are really good. Of course you may have a rental house with luxury furniture and new condition, but if you are considering a vacation and living in a place with nice location (to ski or restaurants), feeling like a house, this is the one. Thank you!
