08/06/09 Positive It's cute and cozy place. My husband and I are avid cyclists and it was in a perfect location for easy access to bike lanes and good rides. We really enjoyed our stay.
sheila, Daly City, Ca08/06/09 Positive A nice place. Clean and well kept in a nice block. Steps
from the lift of Tahoe Donner ski area. A nice homely
feel. We had a great stay.
Matt D, San Francisco, CA 07/24/09 Positive Your home was wonderful, beautiful, cozy and comfortable. All the appliances were state of the art. We hope to stay again soon. It was a pleasure to relax at your home! Thank you so much. Lea and Steve
Lea Sassone, Santa Rosa, CA 07/13/09 Positive I stayted at this condo in Truckee, for three nights during the Fourth of July weekend. I found the condo to be in very good conditions, very comfortable, very clean, very neat and very cute. One of my friends slept on the EZ Bed and found it very comfortable and easy to set up. We made omelettes and found it very convenient that there were cooking utensils and salt and pepper, among other things.
The condo is very close to Donner Lake and other hiking trails, Kings Beach and even Tahoe City.
I would definitely go back to Truckee/Tahoe and will definitely stay at this place again.
Trudy made sure everything was in place for my and my friends, she provided me with great service.
Thank you, Trudy and Mark!!! Aloha!

Carmen, San Jose, CA 04/27/09 Positive we really enjoyed our stay at trudy's condo at lake tahoe. our kids loved the condo and kept saying that it felt just like being at home! the condo was close to all the winter activities that we wanted to go to as well as restaurants and grocery stores (like safeway!). our kids said it was the best tahoe trip ever!! we hope to stay at trudy's condo again! thank you trudy!
eva 04/26/09 Positive The condo was great. The kitchen is very equipped. Internet, TV and the best ski resorts (Squaw, Northstar) around the corner.
Dave, Rothenburg 041 280 89 33 04/21/09 Positive Thank you Trudy, this is a lovely place you have! Condo is very cozy, clean and well organized. Bed is very comfortable (even my husband noticed that!). It also has very convenient location: walk to the lifts, short drive to the restaurants and great views. Kids had lots of fun skiing as well as playing ping pong at Tahoe Donner club. We all enjoyed our short vacation and definitely will come back next winter. Thank you Trudy!
Larisa, San Francisco,CA 04/13/09 Positive Had a wonderful stay at Trudy's condo in Truckee. When you walk in you can feel the positive energy that she has put into this place. In addition to being impeccably clean, the place is decorated with taste you typically get from interior designers. A rare gem in vacation rentals. Good vibrations!
Alexander Payne, Ben Lomond, CA 04/08/09 Positive We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at this Tahoe-Donner rental. The decor with hardwood floors, concrete counter-tops, state of the art appliances, etc. was better than expected. This unit is perfect for 2 - 4 people, and is clean, comfortable and cozy.
Jim, Penngrove, CA 04/01/09 Positive Everything about this chalet is perfect, the bed is
comfortable, everything feels modern and new, yet
cozy, comfortable, and clean, it's literally right on
the ski hill, and the price is perfect. Our family of
four couldn't have been happier (5 yr old and 2 year
old girls). We loved relaxing in front of the
crackling fire, sipping hot cocoa on the back porch,
walking to the ski hill, swimming at the nearby
Recreation Center with it's heated pool and
fabulous jacuzzi's, and exploring adorable down
town Truckee. Lunch at the eclectic "Squeezed In"
was delicious and a unique, must-try dining
experience. We'll definitely be back. A perfect
place to stay while our daughter's learn to ski. Five
stars!!!! Thank you Trudy.
Anonymous, San Jose, CA 03/02/09 Positive The first thing that is striking upon entering the front door of the Chalet is the incredible cleanliness. Having traveled a lot, it means so much to be able to stay in a beautifully appointed and pristine environment. In addition, there are plenty of cleaning supplies to make sure that the Chalet is kept clean. Concrete countertops, Wine Cooler, several different heaters in the living space, all created a warm and elegant experience. I would absolutely recommend the Donner Chalet. It is also very "kid friendly" with a game box filled with all kinds of games and decks of cards. Thank you for a wonderful stay!
Sue Markwood, Napa, California 02/26/09 Positive We stayed at the Donner Chalet for our wedding anniversary weekend and it really met our expectations in every way. It was a cosy, nicely decorated condo with a nice view and very close to the ski area. We brought our 2 small kids (age 4 and 1) and the condo was big enough to accommodate all 4 of us. My daughter did ski school for the first time and loved it. It was a really memorable weekend and we would definitely consider coming back. Thanks Trudy!
Tara, Oakland, CA 02/05/09 Positive Thank you, Trudy, for an absolutely wonderful getaway! As a single mom looking for an affordable last minute escape to the mountains, I truly appreciate your offering your condo in the Tahoe/Donner area. We had the best time! We skied at night, took a lesson, swam in the spa, played fuze ball and ping-pong, went to "trivia night" at the pizza place, and splurged on the most excellent dinner at "The Lodge" restaurant. All in two days!
The only hard part was having to come home so soon :( But, we'll be back! Thanks again,
~ Jaspen & Cedar
Jaspen, Nevada City, CA 02/04/09 Positive We had a wonderful time at your condo and can't wait to return. We have two young children (5 and 3) who are just learning to ski and you cannot beat this location just off the ski hill!
Marc Dall'Era, Sacramento, CA 01/26/09 Positive We truly enjoyed our time (01/2009) at this lovely condo. We have two young children aged 6 and 4. While this condo is just a few steps from Tohoe Donner Ski lifts, it offers incomparable convenience for us. This is our best ski vacation ever!
Joyce Yu, San Jose, ca 01/19/09 Positive We found your condo very cozy, well kept, and in the most convenient location: 5 min from downtown Truckee, and close to the resorts we like the most (North-Star, Sugar Bowl and Alpine Meadows).
Thank you so much, you added a lot of value to our ski vacation! P.S. Thnx for the painless return of the $200 deposit.
Minoja, Mexico City Gerard 01/10/09 Positive Hi Trudy the condo was very lovely and comfortable. We enjoyed our stay. We liked the walking distance from skiing and the beautiful view of the surrounding. We will come back and recommend others to the place. Thanks
Brenda, Stockton, CA 01/09/09 Positive This was the second time we stayed in this condo, and I still only have good things to say about it. We enjoyed snowboarding at the Tahoe Donner Ski Hill in the daytime and relaxing by the fire watching DVDs and TV at night. The condo is so cozy. We went to Boreal one day to snowboard there. It's only about a 10-15 minute drive and offers more runs. I would recommend this condo to anyone looking to stay in the Truckee area. We went up a night early and got a hotel room in Truckee that was double the price of the condo. This condo is definately the way to go.
Chelsea McCormick, Avalon, CA 11/19/08 Positive Thank you Trudy!!! I had a wonderful time at your Donner Chalet!! It was cozy and the perfect location for my stay. I love the beautiful decor and the warmth was restful. I was able to run right out the door and up the skislope. I felt at home and plan to come stay again when I am in Tahoe. I highly recommend your chalet!!
Julie Udcahchon, North Pole, AK 907-230-1572 10/18/08 Positive Very nice updated cozy TD condo, excellent for couples or young smaller families. Excellent for a couples getaway. Comfortable living room furnishings and nice queen sized bed. No TV in the bedroom (my wife likes to fall asleep with the TV on). Easy parking and access (first floor). New kitchen/bath cabinets, counters and appliances make the kitchen nice. Limited (typical 4-5) plates, cups, glasses makes it hard to have multiple meals without running the dishwasher (even with only a couple), you may want to bring some disposable glasses and plates. The spa in the condo owners building was nice. We brought our own sheets and towels to do self-cleaning and it made it very easy as we did not have to wash anything there. As this is purely a rental property, the kitchen is somewhat less stocked than some rentals that have more direct owner use; ask Trudi/Mark about what's there and what you should bring beyond the basics if you are going to cook a lot. Not a negative, but if you are going to cook more than basic meals, you may need to bring some spices and other things. BBQ available in common area. The unit does not have a true kitchen "table", rather counter seating for four. Not an issue for us (a couple), While we did not ski (biked to Tahoe City as it was October), this would be a great family condo with small children learning to ski. Definitely would rent again for the tw of us getting away.
Phil, Pleasanton, CA 10/11/08 Positive Wonderful, cozy condo. Very well furnished. Appreciated the
internet access.
Kacey, Belmont, CA 10/07/08 Positive
A perfect combination of ultra modern and comfy cabin. A spectacular view. Super clean with all the amenities you could want, even a wine fridge. Thank you Trudy and Mark for sharing your lovely home. We will be back
Anonymous, san jose,ca 09/10/08 Positive Everything was comfortable and convenient, including access to activities. Appreciate how Trudy and Mark were so well organized.
Lisa O, Larkspur, CA 09/09/08 Positive Our family stayed in this lovely condo over labor day. It suited us perfectly and it was close to many activities, especially the stables at Tahoe Donner. It was clean and modern and we would recommend it to all our friends.
Larissa, San Mateo, CA 08/31/08 Positive The views at sunset from the condo are so nice, and it was very peaceful right by the slopes in the summer. We enjoyed being a 10 minute drive from Donner Memorial State Park.
Rutledge family, Houston, TX 08/30/08 Positive A little gem of a condo! So clean and nicely decorated. Close to all the fun summer or winter. Great spot for kids and adults. Trudy was absolutely wonderful, and I received my full deposit back almost before I got home! Will be back. Thanks again, the von Seeburg Family
Chris von Seeburg, San Leandro, CA 08/27/08 Positive We had a wonderful time during our SIX different stays in the last year. The condo is beautifully and aesthetically decorated. The location is soooo peaceful. Thanks Trudy!! Blair and Celia

was the perfect size for us and such a beautiful
location! Everything was extremely clean, quiet, and
cozy. Thanks so much! Julienne Perry, Malibu CA 05/14/08 Positive
Great cabin. Great condition. Extremely convenient for kids skiing at Tahoe Donner. Subbiah 05/14/08 Positive Very cozy cabin. We got there during a snow storm and did not have to drive :)
We were right next to the slopes and could ski and get back to a very cozy room. My family and i have wonderful memories...Reva, San Rafael 05/08/08 Positive Very Cozy, We are not Skiers But we enjoyed our time in Truckee, we spent our 11th anniv. there, with everything you could think of nearby made our time there very nice, the amenities of the condo were excellent, was able to make a nice romantic dinner for my wife, and spend a lovely evening together, the condo itself is really nice and well kept, very clean, and everything works, bed is comfortable, showers good, and kitchen is fully equiped, we will definetly be back,Jill & David Padilla , California 05/08/08 Positive Hi Trudy;
Your condo was so cute and comfortable not to mention affordable, there are so many cool hikes right near the condo and the shops and restaurants close also. We also got to go to the casinos in Reno while we were there because they were just a short jaunt away. Thank you for sharing your place with us we would like to come back soon. Loved the fireplace and plenty of free wood was so convenient. Jill, Carmichael, CA 04/28/08 Positive This is a very lovely condo. It's very clean. So clean I had no problem allowing my 9 mos baby crawl on the floor. Also it was so convenient with a kitchen and close to the slopes. We definately will be back! Maxine, Cupertino, CA 04/10/08 Positive We brought our two young kids to stay at this condo and I must say that the location of the condo to the slopes took more than half of the work out of the whole skiing process! I've never stayed at a more convenient location for skiing in the Tahoe area. The condo was very comfortable and secure and had all of the amenities that we needed for a great stay. The kids also loved the fact that there was a great hill for sledding right behind the condo, so their snow fun continued well after the lifts closed. This allowed some relaxation time for my husband and me while the kids played until they dropped! Easy access to shops and restaurants in Truckee for evening outings. We were very happy with these accommodations and plan to stay again next season. Farah, Lodi, CA 04/09/08 Positive Your condo is so clean and comfortably decorated. The location to the lodge couldn't be better. We walked to the lodge in one minute and were able to ski back to our condo. It was really fun for all of us. Thank you. Mona 04/02/08 Positive Great condo right next to the slopes. Very tastefully
furnished, everything clean and well stocked and
maintained. So much better than staying in a hotel,
and a great price. We would definately stay again! Jennifer Maurry, Redwood Shores, CA 03/29/08 Positive An awesome location for no hassle ski hill access and lots of room for the kids to play in the snow. Very comfortable with taseful furnishings and everything we needed.....we could feel the Aloha. Thx for sharing your condo. Jaime, Derrick & Boys, Honolulu, Hawaii 02/26/08 Positive We loved the place. Perfect location and perfect condo for my family - young kids had a wonderful time and loved ski lesson. Will definitely come back. thank you. Soobin, california 02/07/08 Positive This is a beautiful condo and very convenient. Wonderful furniture, kitchen, everything. Trudy is a great hostess - very helpful and accessible. Thank you! Serena Clayton, Oakland, CA 01/10/08 Positive This condo is amazing. It is just like a home away from home, down to the toothbrush holder. The attention to detail is what really stands out about this property to me. It has been recently remodeled and is decorated very tastefully. If you plan on going skiing or snowboarding, it is in a great location.Chelsea McCormick, Avalon, CA 12/20/07 Positive Great location right next to the ski slope. Very clean, cozy condo. Thanks! Bill & Kathleen, Sacramento, CA 12/12/07 Positive Hi Trudy, I just wanted to say Thank You so much for the use of your condo. This was by far the best girls day-weekend we have ever had. We could not have asked for a better start to our Holiday Season. The snow was a perfect setting and we were so lucky to have the clear driving up and back days and the perfect "snow flurry sopping day" in Truckee. I'm hoping to come back in the summer and do Donner Lake with my husband and son.C.Hunter, Sacramento, CA 11/08/07 Positive Very comfy for my family of four! So much better than staying in a hotel room! Very quiet, great fireplace, kitchen well stocked. Affordable! Will recommend to others! Sarah Purgason 09/29/07 Positive 9/3/07 - We really enjoyed the evening here. Last night we staed at Squaw Creak Resort and dropped $300 for one night!! We arrived here today and were amazed that we got more dwelling space, more amenities, more peace and quiet for a third of the price. We will refer Friends and Family in the future! It is good to see honest and kind Entreprenuers like Trudy. we are hoping the unit doesn't sell soon for we would love to com back and stay here again soon. Once again, thank you for opening your house to us. This ws our firs time to Tahoe and we enjoyed the use of your beautiful condo. Sincerely, John, Nikki and Savannatt Hrachovec,John Hrachovec
