Cabin vacation rentals in Truckee River

We were a party of 6 with 2 dogs and we had a fantastic stay at this cozy A-frame cabin in Tahoe City! The house was spotless, stylishly furnished, and had everything we needed for a relaxing mountain getaway. We especially appreciated how pet-friendly the place is — we brought our two dogs, and there was no extra charge, which is incredibly rare and thoughtful. The hot tub was a major highlight, perfect after a day of hiking or just to relax under the stars. The kitchen was well-stocked, the beds were super comfortable, and the neighborhood was peaceful and beautiful. Another big plus: the host offered early check-in and late checkout without any request, which made our stay even more flexible and stress-free. Communication was clear and responsive throughout. We would absolutely stay here again — highly recommended!

Great place to stay and explore Lake Tahoe. We had a great time!

Enjoyed our stay here. More than enough room for 3 of us. Appreciated the washer and dryer and loved the hot tub. The deck is HUGE. Some deck chairs would have been nice instead of benches, but that's a pretty minor thing since we were out and about in the area a lot. Definitely would stay again.

You read ‘this is the best Airbnb I’ve ever stayed in’ a lot on this app for a bunch of OK/decent places but truly this is the best Airbnb we’ve ever stayed in. More akin to a living architecture property, we felt very lucky to be able to stay in such a wonderfully curated and thoughtfully designed space. Every detail thought of. Really walkable to good coffee (three pines) and the lake, and v close to a bunch of running and cycling trails.

The Tahoe Treehouse was a beautiful and peaceful escape from reality. The loft/nest was on another level and I will miss sleeping comfortably under the stars. The host Emilia was quick to respond to any questions I had. My wife and I cannot wait to go back and make it our go to spot.

This is the perfect place for a family with kids, or a girlfriends’ weekend! So spacious! The large kitchen accommodates a lot of activity, and the private yard is perfect for relaxing adults and active children. Wonderful hot tub! We can easily walk the El Dorado Trail into town, or east for a more strenuous walk. Starfield Vineyards is across the street, with trails and gardens, not to mention, great wine. The hosts were responsive, but were hardly necessary, since our needs had been anticipated. I hope to stay at Blue Lead Lodge again soon.

I like how quiet and serene it was. Felt like we had the neighborhood to ourselves. Looks like Olga is doing a lot of updating to the the chalet. We will stay again and would love to see how it looks next year

This was our third stay and just as perfect as ever. The location is beautiful, quiet, and just a short walk from the lake. The space is incredibly comfortable, clean and welcoming with so many relaxing activities built right in. And the hosts are amazing. Very considerate of their guests. We also noticed they had a book full of recommendations of places to eat it and things to do in the area. We picked a favorite they noted which was Wolfdale’s and had the best dinner with a lake view. This is a very special place to stay! Thank you again!

We had a great stay! The cabin was very clean and thoughtfully designed with lots of details that make it feel like a high-quality retreat, especially for families. The kitchen was incredibly well stocked—much better than most rentals—and made cooking easy and enjoyable. The cabin stayed warm overnight even without turning on the heat, and the WiFi was reliable enough for a work video call. Beds and mattresses were comfortable, and there were plenty of towels and blankets for everyone. One thing to note for families with young kids: I wouldn’t recommend it for toddlers, as the stairs are steep and the heater is floor-mounted. Fortunately, our child was old enough for it not to be an issue. A small tip: the melamine plates are very cute, but not microwave-safe—learned that the hard way! Would definitely recommend and stay again.

This cabin was perfect for our truckee get a way. Additionally, the wood paneling all throughout the inside kept the place smelling so fresh and clean!

We loved staying at Mike's cabin. It was a perfect relaxing getaway for us and our dogs on a very quiet street with nearby trails. We enjoyed the cozy feeling of the cabin and were glad to have a well stocked kitchen for cooking and plenty of firewood for unwinding at night. Mike was very friendly and communicative, and was able to offer some local suggestions when asked. Just a heads up - if you don't have 4 wheel drive, you may want to use chains to get up the last couple hilly streets to the cabin in case of icy or snowy conditions. Once we arrived, though, the stairs to the cabin were completely free of ice and snow. Thank you, Mike!

This is a nice little cabin for visiting this beautiful area. We could walk into Tahoe City and surrounding areas were a short drive away. The hosts were very communicative and the location was exactly as described in the listing. This would be a perfect ski cabin. We will definitely keep it in mind if we return.

If you’re looking for a peaceful nature retreat with friends and family—or a private, romantic escape to recharge with your partner—stop scrolling and book this place. You won’t find a better value, a more charming historic cabin, or a more thoughtful host near Truckee and Lake Tahoe. It was a one-of-a-kind stay we’re really glad we experienced.

Todd’s cabin exceeded our expectation, it was so cute ! The area is very private and felt safe and so relaxing. It was a short drive to either Clio or Graeagle without having to stay in the middle of all the excitement going on during the holiday weekend. My husband and I had a romantic dinner for 2 at the Frank Lloyd Wright designed lodge at the super close Nakoma resort. Even though this cabin allowed our pug you couldn’t tell dogs had ever been there. Extremely clean & well appointed with everything you would need, including a spa tub! I highly recommended staying at Todd’s cabin 🌲💚 such a special location.

It’s a nice cozy cabin that’s so close to the beach! As advertised, the cabin can be less roomy in the upstairs bathroom and bedroom, but overall it’s a great cabin at a great location allowing you to explore Kings beach and North Lake Tahoe with ease!

This was an incredible cabin, and it was crafted and hosted by wonderfully kind people. Sandy will give you a tour and make you feel at home. The view from the cabin was beautiful, and the cabin itself was warm and beautifully crafted. From the detailed tile work in the shower, to the full kitchen and the super comfy bed, we felt like we had a safe and peaceful place to rest in between hiking and swimming. We wish we could have stayed longer! highly recommend booking this property, Sandy and family are great hosts.

Very spacious and comfortable, great location in Tahoe Donner!

Great spot for 3 couples ! It is pretty deep in the neighborhood but such beautiful surroundings. Great natural lighting and grand windows! Well stocked kitchen and we cooked almost every night. Really responsive host!

Beautiful cozy place! It was a perfect weekend getaway to visit Lake Tahoe. Great surroundings and would definitely stay here again in the future! Can’t recommend this property more!

We have stayed in Tahoe Donner many times over the years but this was the first time at this house. The experience was great from start to finish. Hamish and Kim were super clear about what to expect, the house was so clean, perfectly furnished for relaxing and sleeping and it had everything needed for a couple of nice meals in. We needed to connect with Hamish and Kim a few times and they were always SUPER responsive and helpful - which is always so nice on weekends like this. We will for sure look to stay here again.

We had a lovely stay, the cabin was perfect and was so close to Donner Lake. It served as a great place to travel and explore the Lake Tahoe region from and was a very homely place to come home to after a day of hiking. Would highly recommend

This was a perfect house for our family of five -- plenty of beds, board games, quiet neighborhood, sleds + sloping backyard, great location close to Truckee, etc. Great communication from beginning to end.

I had a great 3 night stay at Chris’s place. The house has a well equipped kitchen and many other nice amenities for a good stay like a good soundbox, climate control, privacy and comfort . I would come back many times.

Lovely stay for a ski trip up in Tahoe. The house was incrediblely spacious and has enough parking to fit two cars in the garage. I would say the double bunks beds is probably the most solid I have seen used at an Airbnb as well - I have done a lot of ski trips with double bunk beds. Loved the location and would love to stay again if I am back in Truckee.
