Beautiful cabin, great location
June 2026
We have been visiting Truckee for many years, renting cabins for both summer and winter stays, and the Alder Creek cabin has been by far the nicest we have experienced—spotless, sunny, and exceptionally well stocked. On this trip, I brought two horses, which I boarded at the TahoeDonner barn just a quarter mile down the road, with easy access to trails for both hiking and riding. We look forward to returning for many more stays at this wonderful cabin.

The perfect getaway house
December 2025
We’ve been to Truckee countless times, and we’ve never experienced a house this CLEAN and well equipped. After a grueling 8 hour ride it was a relief to find a house with clean beds and no dust to be seen. The house also came with lots of activities such as sleds, board games, and video games. It was a joy to stay here and would definitely recommend it.
