This property is absolutely gorgeous. We meet with extended family once a year and require a house with enough space for the kids and adults. This house was perfect for this, allowing us to cook family meals and spend quality time together. Joe, the Owner, was very responsive to any questions that we had.

Girls trip with a total of 7 of us. Absolutely loved this house! Great location on the golf course. Truckee was a nice location to explore Tahoe from and we traveled to the East Shore and Wesr Shore easily for activities and meals. It has a great wine fridge to keep your drinks cool and a great washer/dryer. If you have a big group you may want to purchase your food in stages as the refrigerator is on the small side. Also check the house for items left from previous guests before buying things. The Safeway is quick to get to if you need anything. Bed were all comfortable, kitchen was well stocked to prepare snacks/meals. Would love to return. Joe was easy to work with.

Highly recommend Joe’s house to enjoy a nice community in the mountains. It’s sits on the perfect location of a golf course where it is private, yet accessible to the rest of the community. It had everything we needed to enjoy a week away.

Great house for an Adult Family

The house was perfect for a large group of adult family members. The kitchen was well stocked with cooking items and I loved the Wine/drink refrigerator. Great beds and a wonderful location. We will come back again!PS. One suggestion clarify the 5th bedroom is the game room and the couch is in the open area.

Heavenly cabin

One of the best cabins we’ve rented in Lake Tahoe. Seriously, the cabin looks exactly like the photos. It feels grand but also homey at the same time. The kitchen is amazing - the best for anyone who loves to cook and entertain. The covered patio provided the best outdoor gathering spot, especially during the winter with the heat lamps. We especially loved the open concept of the first floor - where we could cook and still be part of the conversations happening in the living room. The driveway is grand - allowing for cars to park outside comfortably. The cabin was clean and organized when we arrived - with every gadget in the kitchen that we needed for cooking. We especially loved having the hot water faucet! That was a first for all of us. We look forward to going back!

Lovely place

We hosted our family here over the holidays. The house is pristine and well equipped. Lots of large common spaces for our group to gather/ play games/ cook and eat; and bedroom layout so guests feel like they have private space as well.

Top Notch

Brought my family here for the weekend, grandparents included + another family and kids. House is just amazing. Plenty of space, back deck with the 3 tier slider out to the golf course is the highlight. The neighborhood is beautiful. The course is top tier. Brand new Raleys and truckee brew do just down the street. Hope we get to come back, Joe is great to communicate with.

Fantastic Property/Location and Host

Went for a 3 night stay with 12 people for a golf trip in Truckee area. This house was absolutely fantastic with every modern amenity you could ask for. Home was built in 2024, brand new and on the golf course at a prime location. Owner/Host was extremely kind and accommodating, would like to comeback as soon as possible. Don’t hesitate to book this property as you won’t be disappointed.

Beautiful,large house

We just left for our 3nights stay at Joe's place. It is a gem in Truckee, only 12 mins drive to Lake Tahoe. It located in a private, gated community. There is golfing area. House is well equipped for a large group. Jacuzzi is a plus after a long day hiking. The backyard view is amazing. The only drawback was the AC didn't work during our stay but Joe was very responsive. We will come back!
