Cute little cabin
My husband and I loved staying at this cabin. Wonderful location with walking distance to the shops and little restaurants/ coffee shops. Bed is super comfy. Very close to palisade so perfect for our ski weekend. We had such a lovely time. The only negative was that the refrigerator was smelly so hopefully that can be fixed before the next guest. All in all, it was wonderful and we hope to stay again!

Someone removed the air filter in the refrigerator, it has since been replaced.

Mitch has thought of everything. The property has everything you need and is walking distance to downtown Truckee and all it has to offer. Great walking trails for people and dogs are right outside your door. We are a family of 4 with a very big teenager and a dog . It worked out great.

Cute and cozy
While the house is small, it never felt cramped with 4 of us. It has been nicely designed, looks clean and modern, with a great shower. And, even though it snowed continuously for 2 days, the walkway was cleared of snow daily, or more.

Beautiful, cozy cabin near downtown Truckee
My partner and I stayed in this cabin for a writing retreat weekend, and brought our dog with us. The place is perfect for a cozy and comfortable stay in Truckee. It is right next to some open space by the river, and is also a ~5 minute walk to downtown. All of us really enjoyed our stay and will almost certainly be back!

We had an Amazingly Wonderful stay at this cabin. It is super nice and very private. Fantastic backyard that has a really nice gas bonfire pit and looks out on the forest surrounded by gorgeous Aspen trees. We will make this one of our regular destinations in the future. Mitch is a really great guy and it was great to chat with him and work with him. Thank you very much! See you next time. Cheers, Brad & Julie

Awesome Spot
We loved our stay at this property!! My husband and our two friends were in Tahoe for a wedding, so the four of us rented this house. We have visited Truckee countless times, but this was our first stay at this river cabin. We loved the quietness of the dead-end street and the proximity to downtown Truckee... everything within a 5-10 minute walk! We walked down to the river from the cabin -- the location is perfect. The amenities are modern and the decor is perfect for a ski/lake cabin. The hot water heater is very loud and both the bed and the pull-out couch weren't the MOST comfortable, but neither of these factors affected how much we enjoyed staying here! Highly recommend, and would absolutely rent again!!

Sweet Cabin/Awesome Location
We really enjoyed this sweet, immaculate and quiet cabin in the perfect location. I also enjoyed the trains passing by all hours of the day and night. Both the cabin and the town of Truckee itself are quite charming. We walked to great coffee, meals and shops. We also spent time paddle boarding on Donner Lake, renting and riding E-bikes on the Truckee River trail and even dipped into the river across the street from the cabin down at the bridge. We will definitely be booking here again in the future!

Mitch’s cabin is our “go to” cabin when we visit our daughter who lives in Truckee. The cabin is located walking distance to the historic downtown’s shopping and restaurants. The cabin is well supplied, super clean and perfectly cozy. Great kitchen, living area has a gas fireplace that warms the cabin efficiently. We love staying here and you will too!

The title says it all. The cabin is perfect for couples looking to escape for a weekend in the woods. We cooked our Thanksgiving dinner there, and the kitchen had EVERYTHING we needed. The cabin itself was clean and comfortable, with plenty of heat and picturesque accommodations and surrounding. Walkable to town, which was perfect for us city folks. A+ and highly recommended!

Perfect set up for a small family and a dog. Comfortable house that’s clean and updated. Can’t beat the location with plenty of hiking opportunities from the residence and a short walk around the corner brings you right to downtown. The neighbors on the block are friendly and Mitch called to check in after the whole town had a power outage. Definitely will stay again.

Great spot in Truckee
We rented this cabin after being evacuated from our home due to the Caldor Fire. We originally booked for 2 weeks but we were allowed to repopulate our home after a week in Truckee. The owner Mitch was very flexible with our dates and even was able to refund us since we we headed home earlier than expected. He was great to do business with. As far as the cabin goes, it was amazing! Great location, super cozy and very clean. Walkable to downtown Truckee and all its shopping and dining. Close drive to skiing and other outdoor activities. I would definitely recommend this place to others. We are thinking we are going to stay there again for a long weekend just to get away. Don't hesitate to book this property, you will have a great experience! Thanks Mitch for being a great owner!
