We had a great stay in Truckee. Sharon was excellent and kept us well informed and updated throughout our trip. Due to a winter storm, it took us longer than expected to get to the cabin, so arriving to a warm, cozy place was especially appreciated. It made all the difference after a long drive. We would definitely stay here again.
