We had a fantastic time staying at the dogwoods cabin! The master bedroom had a very comfortable bed and the shower pressure was great. Two very important things for me and my wife. The front has one of the only grass yards in the neighborhood which was great for us and our dog. The backyard had a nice deck and the privacy created by the trees was fantastic. We would definitely stay here again.

Great home, very clean, well stocked kitchen, beautiful deck that overlooks forest. Tahoe Getaway was very responsive to our calls and requests during our stay. They are an EXCELLENT management company. I highly recommend them. House was stocked with Tahoe Getaway beach towels, hand soap, shampoo and Cream rinse. THe office staff were just amazing… We will definitely return next year. The family that owns this home has done an excellent job maintaining the property and I truly want to thank them for sharing their home with us.

Tahoe Donner Gem

It was an amazing stay for our group of small families (family with kids and 2 adult couples). We enjoyed the comfortable and well appointed bedrooms, bathrooms, spacious living room and game room, hottub and beautiful backyard snowy meadow along the golf course. We will definitely book this home again!

Perfect weekend

Great open space. Good location for those who have groups who want to X country ski as well as downhill with easy access to Truckee. I like staying in Tahoe-Donner because it saves so much time on drivetimes from the Bay Area. Comfortable big beds. Nice big garage.

Vacation at Dogwood

We love this home - its size, location, pool table and hot tub. Appliances are old (stove and dishwasher) and could be updated but everything else is in great shape. The main kitchen window was boarded up from snow damage but I'm sure that's temporary. We had a wonderful vacation. Thank you!

Spacious and comfortable

Awesome house just as advertised. Plenty of room for my wife and I, 2 kids and 2 grandkids ( well behaved dog!). Large master bedroom plus living space for toddlers. Appreciated the hot tub and pool table which were well used. Plus liked the large kitchen with an eclectic batch of utensils and multiple appliances. Minor suggestion to provide more dish towels and/or laundry detergent. Prompt communication with management company. Also appreciated prompt snow plowing after heavy snow fall.

Donner New Year’s 2023

Great house, especially for teens (pool table, hot tub, great living room)!!! Lots of kitchen gear for cooking in. Great property management. Be prepared for some possible work depending on timing of heavy snow. It’s dog friendly, but there seemed to be dog hair around from previous guests that could have been cleaned better for future guests with allergies, etc.

Great Cabin - Fantastic Location

The cabin is very close to Tahoe Donner ski resort and maybe 15 minutes from Sugar Bowl and Royal Gorge. Everything was very clean and the rooms were large. Beds were comfortable too! The downstairs great room/dining room kitchen was perfect for playing board games and cooking meals. The best part was the back yard - lots of room to build snow castles, sledding ramps and have snow ball fights. The spa is on the back deck and could easily fit a family of 4. The house felt very private - no neighbors on either side and a very large backyard that backs up to the golf course. The management folks were very helpful and provided all the information we needed to easily check in and out. We would definitely stay here again.
