Great stay
As described! The spa was heated and ready for us, which was a plus. The kids will spend hours playing air hockey, but they do need to get new pucks as the one they have is widdled away.

Good location
For a visit in the transition from summer sports to winter sports, we found the house well located. It was too cool to use the canoe and visit the lake, but the hiking was magnificent, with some trails within walking distance and Donner Summit a very short drive away. We enjoyed the ping pong table. The hot tub cover is very heavy.

No gas
We arrived late, around 10pm, to find out the house was 35 degrees F inside, there was no hot water, and the gas stove and oven didn’t work. Vacasa, who managed the trip, after multiple, multiple phone calls sent someone out 12 hours later at 10am, who checked the propane tank for the house and told us it was empty as the house no longer had a contract for propane. At first, they offered us a new place (without a hot tub) and no refund, but, after we fully explained the situation, they promised us a full refund and a 20% discount on a future trip. We’ve received the email for the future trip discount and are waiting on the full refund. The house was clean and seemed like it would’ve been wonderful IF basic utilities were taken care of.

Good, but overpriced
Hi, This place is as advertised. It's quite nice. However, it's still considerably more expensive than many nearby and comparable places. I don't think it's worth the extra money.

Fine but a bit dated
We’re used to staying at Tahoe Donner, so maybe we’re spoiled, but this property was more dated than it seemed from pics and description. There were no extra towels in kitchen, and because the housecleaning crew left towels in dryer we had to get towels for us from other bathrooms. And there were so many ashes in the stove it was hard to get a fire going. Some dishes felt greasy (previous tenants I guess) and a lot of mugs were chipped. All that said, it was fine for a couple nights and we loved being so close to Royal Gorge.
