Worked well for a ski weekend
This is a cozy West End house minutes away from Sugarbowl and Donner Ski Ranch. Worked well for a ski weekend and would also be great in the summer. Would be happy to stay again.

We had a wonderful stay!
We had a wonderful stay! Cabin had plenty of room and amenities that kept us comfortable, even when snowed in. Easy access to downtown Truckee, but don’t forget to give the Donner Pub a try for great drinks and food. We plan to book again during the summer and enjoy the lake!

Charming Cottage in a Quiet, Convenient Location
Very well located in a quiet area, within walking distance to the beach. The cottage is well-equipped, clean, and has lots of board games! The rental team was very responsive.

We recently stayed at Cottonwood and are now looking at this cabin. Can you let me know about the road conditions? Is it easily accessible/. Plowed? thanks

Anonymous U - Posted: 03/21/2025

Answer:

Thanks for reaching out! This home is just down the street from our Cottonwood + Maple property. The town takes care of plowing and maintaining the roads, so it’s usually easy to get to as long as the weather cooperates. During big storms, it might take a little longer for the plows to get to the street, but it’ll always be cleared in a timely manner. Hope that helps!
