About The Owner

We are a family of four who love outdoor sports. Carol enjoys waterskiing, skiing, volleyball, and biking while Rune is into running, biking, and skiing. The kids enjoy being outdoors as well. They enjoy skiing and sledding in the winter. They love going to the beach and fishing for crawfish in the summer.

The Owner purchased this house in 2010
Why The Owner chose Tahoe Donner

Tahoe Donner is such a fun place for our two kids (ages 5 and 8). In the winter, their favorite is sledding in the backyard and skiing at Tahoe Donner or Donner Ski Ranch. In the summer, we enjoy going to the recreation center for a swim in the pool or dip in the tub. Rune enjoys working out in the gym while Carol gets her exercise by dancing in the zumba class.

What makes this house unique

Watching the sunrise from the living room is amazing. The house has big windows facing the front and the back, and it is so peaceful and rejuvenating to sit in the living room and soak in the views. Our summer guests have been delighted by the abundance of deer sighting in our backyard. There's a lot of space in the house; so the kids can play downstairs giving the adults some free time upstairs.

Beautiful home

5 of 5
Submitted: March 1, 2013 Stayed: February 2013
We stayed here in February with our 3 children to ski at Tahoe Donner, a great ski hill for kids. The house was immaculate, with beautiful stone work and lots of amenities. The kids enjoyed the back "woods" and were even able to tobaggan down the driveway after a snowfall. Highlights included the stone bathtub, the beautiful sunrise and an awesome BBQ.

My family and my sister's family had a wonderful weekend at the Sunrise Vista home and I can say it was beautiful, clean, well appointed, spacious and a lot of fun for the kids. There is sledding in the backyard as well as many games and toys for the children. Ski areas were all within 5-30 minutes away.The kitchen is well equipped, although I would have liked a more up-to-date stove to cook for all of us. And Carol, the owner, was helpful with making this a very easy vacation rental experience. We hope to return again next time we are in Tahoe!

Great place for kids

5 of 5
Submitted: February 17, 2013 Stayed: February 2013
We stayed here for 4 nights with 2 young children (3.5 & 1), 3 grandparents and us (mom and dad). This was a great place to rent with kids, and we would definitely rent it again. It was nicely stocked with whatever we needed and big enough so that everyone had enough space. My preschooler went crazy for all the toys and the pack n' play & booster seat were nice additions. We appreciated the nice, comfy beds (although a few extra blankets would have been nice). The top bunk bed was too scary for my preschooler (grandma had the bottom bunk) so we built him a nest with a mat that we found in one of the closets. It worked well!
We noticed after we rented snowshoes in Truckee that the house had some snowshoes in the garage (doh!). The house was close to Tahoe Donner downhill skiing (which is good for little ones learning how to ski), and also close to Truckee.
The only downside was the lack of good snow! ;) We hope next time we come that the snow will be better.

What a FANTASTIC property. Beautifully appointed, spacious, and very well maintained. The pictures are great and it's even better in-person. Perfect for our family of seven...three couples and a three year old. Close to everything you'd want to do in Truckee and North Lake Tahoe. Everything you might need is at the house from sleds, toys and games for toddlers and teens, to the fully-stocked kitchen. Highly recommend this wonderful rental!

We had a lovely stay at Sunrise Vista--it was a great "home base" for skiing, sledding, and playing in the snow (in the backyard). It's clean, well-maintained, and comfortable. Carol, the owner, was extremely helpful with local tips and checked in to make sure our stay was perfect. Definitely recommend.
