About this property

Our house is located 5 miles west of downtown Reno in a quiet, safe neighborhood nestled between the hills and the Truckee River. The contemporary, four-bedroom, single-story house is a great fit for 8-10 people. With tall ceilings and a clutter-free, bright, open great room, it is a perfect spot for entertaining while visiting the Biggest Little City. Go for a hike or trail run up in the hills, bike or fly fish along the Truckee River, or just relax and play pool, ping pong, or grill and relax in the hot tub. A two-car garage is available for you to park your cars or keep your gear. With close highway access, you can quickly be on your way to Truckee, Northstar, Squaw Valley, Mt. Rose, or any of the other local Reno and Tahoe attractions. Enjoy the Sleep Number king bed in the master bedroom and either of the two gas fireplaces in the house.

Great location and great amenities

We had a wonderful time. The house was exactly what we wanted. The host responded very quickly. The only issue was the train horn at 2:45 in the morning, then again at 3am the first night/morning of our stay. It didn’t happen every day at that time, but was a rude awakening the first night. Other than that, it was in a great location, and tucked away from other noise.

Second stay

This was second time we stayed here and it was as good as before. Family reunion Thanksgiving was easily accommodated in 3 bedrooms and fenced in backyard for dog. Wonderful walking trails in hills across street and along Truckee river. Very quiet and friendly neighborhood. No complaints.

About the host

Hosted by Andrew Ellis

Andrew and Nicole live in Tahoe with their two kids and their labradoodle Bodie. We moved to Reno in 2003 and got to enjoy living in this great neighborhood until 2011.

Why they chose this property

This is a quiet, safe neighborhood with a multitude of options right outside the door!

What makes this property unique

The Truckee River and trails up into the hills are just across the street. Enjoy trail running, mountain biking or hiking just seconds from the house! Cool down or fly fish in the river. Road bike along the paved river path or take a longer ride on the bike path to Verdi. We have 3 "townie" bikes for you to use. Please bring a helmet, use of the bikes is at your own risk. When you're ready to enjoy Reno, downtown is just five miles to the East. A 25 minute drive will get you to Truckee and in about 40 minutes you can be skiing at Mt. Rose, Squaw, Northstar or Alpine Meadows.
