Description

Stunning views of the surrounding mountains, unique reclaimed materials and unparalleled amenity access make Above the Pines a one of a kind Tahoe Donner vacation rental. This custom Tahoe cabin comfortably accommodates two families or a group of outdoor enthusiasts seeking an adventurous mountain getaway.

Entering through the mudroom onto the main living level, you'll find an open floor plan which makes the spacious area perfect for socializing. Gather around the fireplace and wall-mounted flat-screen TV for a movie night, or meet at the large dining table for a family meal after a day on the slopes. The chef in the group will appreciate the open kitchen with stainless steel appliances and Silestone counters. Truly one of a kind, the cabinets are made of old pickle barrels from Colorado, corrugated metal from an old barn adorns the ceilings, and a barn door slides to conceal the pantry.

Off the main level of this Tahoe vacation home you'll also find a large, sunny deck overlooking the Tahoe wilderness with a gorgeous mountain view. After a day of outdoor exploration, you'll love coming home to the soothing hot tub. In the warmer months, enjoy patio dining or simply getting lost in a good book as the sun sets.

When you're ready to turn in, all the bedrooms are separated from the main floor to ensure a restful night's sleep. Downstairs, you'll find two comfortable guest bedrooms and a full bath. A second family room shares this space as well, where guests can enjoy a movie or a game of darts. Upstairs, the primary suite spans the entire floor and features a king bed with high-end linens, a beautiful en suite bath, a flat-screen TV and a cozy sitting area.

Great location, but could be better stocked

Overall we had a great stay at Above the Pines, rooms were clean and spacious, hot tub was in good working condition, and the backyard was great for sledding. Only misses was that the main living areas didn't have good lighting, some of the bathrooms ran out of toilet paper, there was only enough dishwasher detergent for 1 load of dishes, and there wasn't any laundry detergent.

Manager's Response

Thank you for your review! We're thrilled you had a great stay at Above the Pines. We appreciate your feedback regarding the lighting and supply availability, and we have taken immediate steps to address these areas to enhance the experience for future guests. We hope to welcome you back soon for another enjoyable stay!

We loved everything about this property! The design and amenities are wonderful, the bed in the master suite was amazing, and our dog loved sitting on the deck and looking for wildlife (not that he saw any, but hope springs eternal). Didn't use the hot tub but would be nice to have for winter time. If you visit in the summer be sure to hike the east perimeter trail, it's a great morning wake-up activity. My only suggestion is for the towels to be replaced. We will be back!

Manager's Response

Thank you for taking time to leave us a positive review. We would love to host you again in the future!

My sister and I like to have our families meet in a different city every year. This year we chose Truckee/Tahoe and this house met every single one of our needs. Location wise, we weren't more than 30 minutes away from any of the activities we had planned in the area. Easy access to Safeway and local restaurants. The house had plenty of room for all of us to be in the same room for games and movies, but also enough room for everyone to spread out. There was not a single thing we needed in the kitchen that wasn't already there. Going in the hot tub every night before bed was a huge hit with the kids. Lots of sheets and towels, the Tahoe Donner Rec offerings were great, and the wildlife was everywhere but nothing that wanted to eat us. This was truly one of the best vacation rental experiences we've had.

We spent a long weekend at Above The Pines. We found the rental to be well equipped and comfortable. Great kitchen and outdoor deck with hot tub. There were only two of us and our dog but this house is made for a larger group ! Recommend it !

We really enjoyed our stay at this home. It was perfect for our family. We have young grandchildren and it was a safe environment for them with the rustic furniture and leather sofas. Location was great for Donner Lake as well as Tahoe. My only suggestions would be that there was no extra TP in the bathrooms and there was no dishwasher detergent at all. So we had to go buy that. Also, the dishwasher did not fully dissolve the detergent pod until we put it on Heavy Duty cycle. Last comment: carpets in master need to be cleaned. We hope to be back in this home next summer with our family.

Manager's Response

Thank you for your detailed review. We are so glad you loved the home and would welcome you back anytime. While we do supply a starting supply of disposable items, guests should check our Pre-Trip Checklist for details on what will be provided at the home! We are also in the process of coordinating full thorough carpet cleaning after a heavily occupied summer season! This should be addressed within the next few weeks.

What a beautifully appointed house. The rustic feel and the sound of the wind in the pine trees was so relaxing. The staff at TahoeGetaway was great to deal with, nice and helpful. We hope to get back soon

The house has all the amenities you could ask for. Very clean! Few minor things needed to be fixed ( like outlet in master bathroom didn’t work) but nothing major. The kitchen has all you need. Beautiful view. Couldn’t have had picked a better place to stay.

Manager's Response

I'm so glad that you enjoyed the property! After hearing this feedback, we reset the GFCI for the outlet in the bathroom which solved the problem. This shouldn't be an issue for future guests!

Rustic with great location

Overall we had a great 6 night stay here. The cabin was clean upon arrival and the house we nicely prepared for us. You can tell the cabin was recently renovated and had a very rustic reclaimed wood vibe. So rustic that a few of us got splinters opening the cabinets. We had a few problems turning on the fireplace but with a call to the property management company we got it figured out. The hot tub was easy to use and a nice treat. The bathrooms were nice and big and clean but the shower doors leaked water downstairs and the upstairs door scraped the tile which was scary. There were also light bulbs out in the mud room and in the front of the house. Overall this is an extremely comfortable cabin and we appreciated that we could bring our dog. We all agreed we would rent this cabin again and I would recommend it to any friends who want to bring their dog with them.

This house worked very nicely for our group. The kitchen was probably the best equipped of any rental I've used. It had more than enough plates, cups, silverware etc. as well as many amenities for cooking a real meal, making coffee (burr grinder), tea, etc. The bedrooms were very comfortable with nice bedding and the master bedroom and bath were outstanding. There was plenty of space for adults, kids and the hot tub was perfect.

Family of 4, last minute trip midweek. It was huge but everything we wanted (only used 3 of the beds. Kitchen is professional and well stocked. A part of the Tahoe Donner HOA with guest passes good for discounts on lift tickets and other benefits. Managed by Tahoe Getaways a professional management company who was very responsive to the few minor issues we encountered.
