Wow
Cottonwood Place was immaculate! We had 6 adults and all of us has plenty of space. I really appreciated the attention to detail. Everything was sparkly clean and the homely, high end appliances were a nice touch. Just 30 mins to the north shore and down the street from lake Donner, the location was perfect. Note: this homes does not have air conditioning but it does have a central fan system and plenty of stand fans for each bedroom. We had no problem keeping cool even during the high of the day. We hope to back again soon!

Overall Great Stay
We stayed here with another family (3 people). It was a great layout and great location. Downstairs room was nice for the kids to watch TV in at the end of the day. We stay in Tahoe Donner every year so we are super familiar with the area. House was exceptionally clean and appreciated the minimalism. Just a few things. The beds were TERRIBLE!! ( & I am NOT picky) Especially the downstairs queen. Literally would have been better off sleeping on the floor. The master was clean, spacious but the bed wasn't much better than downstairs. The bunk bed room had the best of the options. Second, I think the dryer is going bad. Upon our arrival the towels were damn and musky so we had to use the pool towels we brought ( not that big of a deal). However as we did laundry throughout the stay I noticed the dryer needed to be ran a few cycles. Maybe this could be passed to the owner. We would stay here again! I love the cleanliness. Thanks.

Cottonwood Place at Tahoe Donner
Loved our stay here. We were surprised at how well stocked the house was in spite of the pandemic. Another delight was the comfortable beds, abundant supply of towels, silverware, plates, dishes, vitamix, and some children's items for toddlers. The floor plan was comfortable and spacious for a large family. Trout Creek Rec center was incredible and so was the Marina Beach. We had such a wonderful time and can't thank you enough, owners of Cottonwood and the helpful staff at Tahoe Properties for making this a true vacation for all!!!!
