Snow vacation

We had a wonderful stay at Donnor Bliss. The house was great. My son loved playing in the snow on the property, and the adults loved the hot tub. Thanks for a great weekend getaway.

Wonderful location for our family adventure

We had a great stay at your property. It was a perfect size house for our family. I enjoyed coffee on the back patio every morning and the kids enjoyed a hot tub dip at the end of the day. Location was a perfect starting point for our daily adventures.

Wonderful house in Truckee

This is a great place in Truckee. The Armstrong Tract is a hidden secret, and it is high up on the hill, so there are great views. The house is spacious, the driveway is large enough for cars and to play cornhole, and the grill and spa are perfect in all seasons. Will definitely stay again.

My son and I enjoyed our stay at the facility. The check-in was straightforward. It was clean and had all of the expected conveniences. The kitchen was spacious with a full array of cookware, dishware and condiments. The refrigerator was large enough to accommodate all of our food items. The outside jacuzzi was a huge bonus with strong jets and a hot water temperature. The only drawback was the lack of the facility’s wifi. The owner mentioned that the problem might have been due to a recent power outage. Regardless, our own wifi source was sufficient.Overall, the price was reasonable & the experience was well worth it. The owner was very responsive to my questions. I would highly recommend it to our friends.

Perfect Cozy Setup

We really enjoyed this cabin because two families with kids had plenty of space to be comfortable. The kids bunk room was a highlight for our little boys and the fireplace and hot tub we're our favorite amenities! Location was perfect for easy access to Truckee and multiple ski resorts. We're already booked to go back again and looking forward to it!

Cozy cabin in the snow

We had a great time staying here and it had everything we needed for our family of five. The kids loved all the games that were there and the beds were comfy and warm after full day of skiing and sledding. Apres ski in the hot tub while the snow was falling was especially great. Mel was responsive and helpful with any questions we had. Would definitely stay here again!

Perfect Truckee Home

This was the perfect house for us( 2 adults, 1 son, and 1 4-legged son). Mel's house was had everything we needed. The fenced in back yard was perfect for our dog. It was centrally located to all of our favorite places: restaurants, hikes, and of course the Lake. I am currently at home already daydreaming of next years trip and booking our stay with Mel.

Checks Every Box!

It's hard to find a house like this in Tahoe that provides all the amenities my family looks for, dog friendly, kid friendly, hot tub, fireplace and room for two families! We feel so fortunate to have found this gem and continue to re book with Mel because she is an excellent host and we think this is a perfect property!!

Cozy Cabin

Nice layout of rooms Clean Quiet neighborhood. Close to everything. We loved our stay. We did alert the owner that the surface of bathroom tub was very slippery. It was very easy to fall when wet and soapy. Use with caution or use a tub mat. That being said, I wouldn't hesitate to stay here again. Donner Lake is the place to be, and this place was terrific.

Wonderful Tahoe Home

We had an absolutely great time staying in Mel and Sal's place. This is the fourth Tahoe-Donner rental we have stayed in and this was the best experience overall. The home is very comfortable and has all of the amenities you can think of. Mel and Sal texted us to ensure we had everything we needed. Location was extremely convenient, more so than other places we stayed. We hiked and sledded in a beautiful area about one block from the home, then enjoyed their wonderful hot tub while it snowed. We highly recommend it!

Loved it

Loved the place, hot tub and fire pit was used each night. I also took advantage of the hammock. My husband loves to mountain bike ride so he did that each day. Took our bikes to the Truckee River and rode to Sunnyside . Beautiful ride. Yes we would rent this place again for sure.

Perfect family cabin

We loved the cabin! Warm cozy and clean inside. Perfect for our family of 5. The kids bunk room had a fun array of games for our teens. Kitchen had everything we needed for cooking. The hot tub was a great spot to relax after skiing! We really enjoyed snowshoeing and cross country skiing around Donner Lake Stare Park- just across the main road from the neighborhood that the cabin is in. Mel was so communicative and answered all my questions before and during our trip. Check in and out were easy!

Ideal Truckee property

This property was perfect for our visit to Truckee! The kitchen had everything we needed to make meals for our family, including a propane grill on the deck. The beds were super comfortable and the house was spotless. We loved that this property was pet friendly so that our son, who lives in Truckee, could visit us there with his dog. A nice bonus is the hot tub and fire pit on the back deck! Mel was super easy to communicate with and responded almost immediately to any questions. We thoroughly enjoyed our visit to Truckee and staying in Mel’s Donner Bliss home. Would highly recommend to anyone, including family and friends. We will definitely be back!

This was a wonderful home for a vacation with dogs. Great location and fully appointed.

My husband and I spent the month of August at Bliss Cabin with our two golden retrievers, and thoroughly enjoyed ourselves. Our goal was to escape the desert heat, and our mission was accomplished. The location is great; so close to Donner Lake, Downtown Truckee and an easy drive to Lake Tahoe. Our dogs loved the fenced backyard, and there was plenty of room to stay comfortably for an extended period. From nice, thick towels to super comfortable beds, we had no complaints about anything. We truly had all the comforts of home. I wouldn't think twice about staying here again. Thanks, Melanie!

Amazing Cabin

We took are first family vacation with my niece. 5 adults, 1 kid and 2 dogs. It was a packed house but big enough that we had our space. I love that it had two backyard decl and one front porch. Super spacious. The neighbors were super friendly and so were their four legged fur babies. Mel was super nice and helpful. Always communicating. I would rent this again for another family vacation.

Magical snow escape

We had a wonderful time at Donner Bliss. We came to show our 4-year-old snow for the first time and she had a ball. We loved frolicking in the snowy woods and sledding in the neighborhood, tubing at Soda Springs and making s’mores by the cozy fire. The house is lovely; very comfortable, clean, and roomy. There is a really cute kids’ bedroom with a piano and a variety of games. The neighborhood is beautiful and very convenient to downtown. We would absolutely come back. Thank you for a great stay, Mel!

Family Trip to Truckee

My daughter lives in Truckee. My husband and I, along with my other daughter and her family visited Truckee to spend time together. This house was great. We spent a lot of time there just hanging out. It accommodated us all. We will definitely look at booking this house again on our return trips to Truckee.The house offered plenty of beds, the kitchen was well-stocked and plenty of games to keep my 4 year old granddaugher occupied. My only comment was that the games were is such disarray that if we had wanted to use them as intended, it would have required hours to separate all the pieces. However, my granddaughter used them but made up her own rules as we went along. Kept her busy.We will definitely stay at this house again in the future.

Thanksgiving in Truckee

Property was nice. Cabinets were well labeled which helped find things. Firewood was under snow and hard to retrieve. Also would suggest fire extinguishers or at least one near the wood stove for safety. Owner did not know where matches were when butane lighter ran out. Also, would suggest supply of firestarter bricks to make lighting the fire easier and not have to use paper bags. Unit was well heated and hot tub grand. Would stay again.

Excellent & cozy property for all ages

We booked Donner Bliss Cabin to get away the week of Thanksgiving and really wanted something close to things but away from the crowds of Tahoe. It was important for us to be able to bring our mini Goldendoodle Sadie. I chanced upon the Donner Bliss cabin hosted by Mel and Sal and it blew us away. It had EVERYTHING a family would need to get away and make memories. It’s cozy, inviting, clean and comfortable. Each person had space and the “kids” room comes fully equipped with tons of board games, fooseball, a Wii and a hit was the piano. The kitchen is FULLY stocked with utensils, pans, etc so much so that I was able to comfortably make a Thanksgiving dinner we all thoroughly enjoyed. If you are in need of groceries or drinks, Safeway is about a mile away. There are so many awesome things to mention but The Hot Tub, fenced in yard, Wood Burning Stove, full washer and dryer and ample supplies really made us feel at home. You only need to bring your clothes to this property, they provide everything else! Plus, it’s very easy to get to from any direction you’re coming from. We cannot wait to come back and explore in the summer time when we can roast marshmallows or use the BBQ. Mel was fantastic at communication and we felt at home every day. Thank you for trusting us to use your home and we really cannot wait to return!
