A great home that was perfect for our extended family and little pooch while we enjoyed a beautiful spring skiing trip to Truckee.
Great location, spacious home, picture perfect lake Donner views.

We stayed at this property for ski trip. The cabin has view of Donner lake from master bedroom and living room. Beds were comfortable, showers worked as expected, kitchen had all what we needed to cook and dine. A possible downside could be that freeway is pretty close, but since it was winter and we didn’t need to open windows, we didn’t have any problems with noise. I also want to praise excellent customer service from Vacasa. Originally we booked a different problem, but due to some problem with our first choice, customer service alerted us that they will relocate us, and they were able to find a place in the area in less than an hour. And we needed pet-friendly place!

This home was absolutely beautiful, and the location was out of this world! It came equipped with everything we could possibly need for our 2 night stay. With 11 people we were worried about how packed it would be, but the bedrooms accommodated us perfectly. One of us forgot our crockpots and we were pleasantly surprised to find that there was an extra in the house. There were plenty of linens and toiletries, the house was wonderful down to the very last detail. I would absolutely recommend this home for anyone looking for a beautiful mountain getaway with amazing views and cozy accommodations.

The house is very clean. The towels were brand new. Overall very comfortable for a family of 5. The location is convenient, but very noisy. Really close to HWY 80 and hard to sleep at night with the windows open since no AC. A lot of stairs to get to the main level of the house. Kitchen is old and appliances are very outdated. Overall the house needs some renovation. Grill on the deck is really old and barely functioning.
Manager response:
We appreciate this feedback and are very happy to hear this guest found the home to be clean, well stocked, and comfortable. The owner loves her home very much and has been making updates as she is able. Although the appliances are older, they still work well. Thanks!

It was a super fun time in this cabin... Me and all my friends had a blast and will definitely be coming back, great price with great view and a very roomy cabin.
Chris N.Jan 2018
We are excited to come to this cabin pictures looked good " professional so made it look nicer then actual " we were 2 families 5 kids , the road leading to the cabin was like going pass junk yards with old cars, roads not finsihed, junk laying around. We got to the property and the drive way you can literally fall if not careful . not clean in front of house overall just needs to be redone the front of the house looks like it should be the back of the house, terrible architect.
everything needs an update its like being in the 90's ...
(good size family room)
water heater after one person took a shower , water was freezing cold
at night you can hear the noises loud noises like wood cracking scared the kids and some adults. we stayed one night and took off and didnt stay the other night.
anyway price was ok but not worth what i paid at all.. good luck..and everyone
has different taste so you may like it or not.

We loved this property. The deck is idyllic, the common area upstairs perfect for just hanging out. The bedroom setup is nice as the upstairs and downstairs rooms are quite separate; it allowed our two families to have plenty of space. The location is great, quiet and convenient.
The supplies though seemed quite lacking. While the cupboards are packed full of things, it’s missing some useful pieces, like oil or cooking spray. A fancy coffee maker looks great on the counter-until you attempt to turn it on and find it doesn’t work. Lots of utensils but not high quality: I attempted to peel a cucumber and the peeler bent on the first try. Closets are cluttered with random items and each drawer seems to have some miscellaneous item in it. So while we love the house, I’d like to see some better care and intention put into it if we were to visit again.

We've stayed in Lake Escape twice, both winter and summer. The cabin is comfortable and inviting, with tons of space. The view of the lake is amazing! We will definitely return!

The cabin had a great view and the beach was even better than expected!

14660 Denton Ave is a beautiful getaway with excellent access to the surrounding wonderland of Donner lake and the Tahoe area.
William B.Jul 2015
Really enjoyed the spaciousness and the facilities. Freeway noise degraded the ambiance as did the wires across the view, which did not show in the photos. on line. Property nice, location iffy.
Sheree S.Jun 2015
We loved the view of the lake unfortunately that also meant being high up close to the highway but small price to pay for the view. We stayed in summer but I would imagine it would be difficult to get to in heavy snow. Great house unless stairs are difficult for you. We loved staying there
