Thank you for your review and for sharing the photos of all the snow that arrived in time for a White Christmas! I always enjoy Christmas decorating the cabin so families can enjoy their time together. Merry Christmas!
Another wonderful stay at Green Gables! This has become a yearly tradition for us. The house is alwaysclean and comfortable, and the kids love sledding in the back of the house. We will definitely be back again.
The house was outstanding! Layout was open, a cozy fireplace with endless amounts of firewood, comfortable beds, fully stocked kitchen, and access to Tahoe Donner HOA with hot tubs, pool and sauna. Peg was super easy to communicate with, highly recommend and hope to stay again!

Awesome Place to Stay
This was one of the best places we have rented. It's very spacious, has a fully stocked kitchen and VERY clean. We loved having the wood burning fire place and the place also had Christmas decorations when we arrived.

We stayed here over the MLK weekend for the kids to have some snow playing time. The cabin is cozy and has everything we needed. We ran into some issues with the cabin, but the host Peg responded and resolved quickly! Will definitely stay here next time!

So glad you were able to safely reach the cabin with the large snow storm. And thank you for alerting me to your needs. Keeping the cabin ready for guests and being sensitive to environmental needs of a cabin in the mountains takes partnership in agility and resilience. Thanks for being such great guests.
Green Gables was perfect for our 4th of July getaway. We stayed here with two families (4 adults and 4 kids ages 1-6yrs), and the house was very comfortable with everything we could need. Thanks so much, Peg!

Thank you so much for your glowing review. I find that families have such a great time at our cabin and so glad that you did too.
We had a very cozy Christmas weekend here! The ping pong table was a hit with the teens. The house was set up well and had plenty of space for games, food, togetherness and rest. I'm looking forward to coming back!

I am so glad you had a good time and thank you for the care you showed our cabin, it's a second home to us! We would welcome you back.
We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Green Gables. The check in and out process was simple and we had great communication with Peg. The house comfortably supported our three generations of family. Location is in the heart Tahoe Donner. Green Gables is definitely a four season home. Enjoy!

Thank you for your review confirming the suitability of Green Gables for multiple family generations and thank you for treating our mountain cabin as your own.
We loved it! The house is lovely and well set up for guests,all the amenities are available, very close access to local skiing and sledding; plenty of housewares an cookery for large gatherings. We did not use the fireplace but tons of firewood available. A very enjoyable family gathering!
The house was just what we needed for a weekend away with friends and kids in Tahoe. The house was clean, comfortable, and had everything we needed, including anything we needed for cooking! Peg was incredibly kind and helpful whenever we had any questions. The location was right down the street from Tahoe Donner, a very quaint and family friendly ski area. We highly enjoyed our stay and loved sitting by the fireplace and chatting. We will definitely stay here again on our next trip to Tahoe.

I am so glad that you enjoyed Green Gables Mountain Lodge and all the cabin and Tahoe Donner has to offer. We are so happy to share our mountain cabin and thank you for caring for our cozy home like your own. We look forward to welcoming you back again.
We really enjoyed watching the snow fall and cozying up by the fireplace! The house has a nice layout for families and friends with plenty of space in the living room and dining room, and an enclosed loft sleeping space for the kids and three bedrooms downstairs. We enjoyed cooking meals in the well-stocked kitchen and the close proximity to Tahoe Donner ski resort as well as cross country and snowshoeing options. Would definitely stay here again!
Very nice cabin, fully stocked kitchen, all the toys for having fun. Ping pong table, great deck, access to all the Donner activities. Great host.
Minuses: there is a nice wood burning chimney but the house has a smoke smell, if you mind that.

Thank you so much for your review and glad you appreciated all the amenities at the cabin. After the long winter, you were the first summer guests and the cabin is being aired and carpets and furniture cleaned to relieve the effects of the wood burning fireplace.
We had a fantastic 4 night stay in Truckee thanks to Peg. The cabin was super comfortable and close to everything we needed in downtown Truckee and the surrounding area. The cabin was clean, well stocked, and Peg was a fantastic host- communicative, generous, and flexible allowing us to extend the rental by a few nights on short notice. We'd love to stay again in the future and hope our group (which included 11 month old twins and a 7 year old) can return in the future.
