Rustic is a fair description but not a problem. The house served our needs well. Our favorite part was the large dining room. We could all enjoy meals together, always essential on our family gatherings. The oven door didn't close properly but we managed to prop it closed to use it. Property manager immediately responded to our concerns. It was a hot week so she purchased and delivered fans for each bedroom. The downstairs den was a great retreat for kids. There are many stairs to the house and bedrooms, just be prepared to get your exercise. Overall a very satisfying stay.

The property itself is rustic and beautiful. Digital communication prior was on time and detailed but we did not get a response from a property manager until after we checked out. Overall a good stay.

We recently had a wonderful vacation at Donner Lake. The house is well furnitured, clean and very nice inside . it's perfect for a large crowd and not too far away from everything . Our family is very active so the stairs were not a problem for us but , I could see if others were less fit or active it would be a problem. Overall a perfect week for us.

We loved the location of this property enjoyed the views of the lake and Castle peak. The listing is accurate that the cabin is older. The carpet is very thick and holds a lot of dust. Bathrooms are updated nicely. There are a lot of stairs! I didn’t mind it but could see how it could be a problem for someone older.
