*Almost* perfect

Overall, we enjoyed our stay at the property. Great location, beautiful home, loved access to Tahoe Donner amenities. Kitchen was fully stocked and great for cooking. Patio/firepit area was lovely. A few things that made it 4 vs 5 stars: 1). The guidance on how to use Tahoe Donner amenities was a little unclear/confusing. Also, when arriving we found that only one of the community passes was left for us, which left members of our group unable to access some of the amenities for a day. It took AvantStay over a day to respond on this one. 2). Some small repairs are needed to make this a 5-star property. Toilet in main bedroom runs constantly, couple of burnt out light-bulbs, etc. Nothing major, but a tiny bit of love would help. 3). When we arrived that back patio (including tables, hot-tub cover, grill) was absolutely covered in pollen dust. Understandable -- spring has come very late to the Tahoe area this year, but we would have been nice to have that patio cleaned for our arrival. 4). Windows in the loft need curtains. Hard to have kids sleep up there in the summer (heat, light) -- the sunlight wakes them up early! Overall, we enjoyed our stay and would recommend this home to others! Thank you for sharing your home!

Tahoe Donner Stay

The property and stay was amazing, so easy to check in and out. Nice and private, even though your in a neighborhood. Only issue was the driveway was very icy and dangerous. Could’ve used some salt or sand to help from the slipping hazard.
