Great house
Our group of 14 had an amazing time staying at this house and skiing at Palisades. We got snow on several of the days and Joe was very responsive to our questions. As another review mentioned, 4 wheel drive is an absolute must for this house in the winter, as we couldn't get out of the driveway and up the road one very slushy morning, even in 4WD Low.

Great Family Reunion!
Awesome location and property. So close to everything, but far enough away from the town for REAL peace and quiet. Everything was as advertised…the house is AMAZING! So much room, and right on the river. The only issue we encountered was a last minute power outage which lasted about 9 hours that we were not informed about…but that was the city/county and not Joe. Great Stay!

Great house for large groups
Our family of 10 had plenty of room to spread out and enjoy our stay at this river house! Four bedrooms, each with their own bathroom, plus a loft and game room so the 3 teens in our group could have their own space. Beautiful gourmet kitchen to cook anything you want, with a huge island and extra large dining room table so everyone could cook and eat meals together. Being riverfront with a hot tub was icing on the cake after a fun day of hiking and exploring the area. This house is perfectly located so that we were able to explore downtown Truckee, Donner Lake, Tahoe City/Beach and Emerald Bay during our 5-day stay. The grocery store was a quick 5 minute drive. Yes, there is some highway noise, but it wasn’t that bad even though we were there on one of the busiest weekends (July 4th). You’re not going to find another house that can so easily accommodate large groups that is this private, right on the river, with these kinds of amenities and such an easy drive to so many attractions. The road noise was a very small price to pay considering all the pros this house has to offer. Some reviews have mentioned the neighbors being unfriendly, but we didn’t have any problems with them. Our whole group had a great time!

Wonderful Stay!
My family of teens and adults just stayed at this wonderful property for a Holiday vacation. When the mountain closed, we had a great time playing pool, board games, cooking a great meal in a well stocked kitchen, watching movies and enjoying the hot tub. The house has plenty of space with a separate game area with a TV, and two additional living areas with TVs. The main great room overlooks the beautiful Truckee River. It is also conveniently located between Truckee and Palisades Tahoe. The host Joe was a great resource and made our stay seamless. I highly recommend this property.

What a wonderful week! Perfect location.. Minutes to everything!
Absolutely beautiful home with lovely hosts. Our family had an adventure every day and then to come home back to a house that Also catered to adults and children was so nice. The kids absolutely loved playing in the river in front of the house, playing pool as soon as they woke up and before bed . We all enjoyed the hot tub! Everything you could need is at the house… kitchen is fully equipped for lots of guests. Tons of room for everyone to spread out and tons of windows and porch space to enjoy the beautiful surroundings.

About the host

Hosted by Joe Olagaray

Host profile image
We were looking for a second home in Tahoe where we could enjoy both the snow and water in a beautiful mountain setting. We are excited to share this beautiful lodge type home with you.

Why they chose this property

This large lodge style home is beautiful decorated and situated on over an acre on the Truckee River. It is convenient to both Truckee and Tahoe City. It has been planned out well with 4 large bedrooms, each with it's own private bathroom. It is the perfect location to hang out on the river on a sunny day or to ski at one of the top notch Tahoe ski resorts. Several, including Squaw Valley are just minutes away. There is plenty of room for a family reunion or for several families to share.

What makes this property unique

When we're in Tahoe, we love to be comfortable, enjoy the beauty of the area, and be spoiled with a few luxuries...like the personal home gym, hot-tub on the Riverside deck, play a game of pool, watch movies, and the gourmet style kitchen as we love to cook and entertain. In winter-time, this property transforms into a winter-wonderland! We're an easy drive to and back from Squaw, so when others are still braving the red-light parade, you'll be having Apres' Ski in the riverside hot tub! You can sled and snowshoe right on the property. We are conveniently located just a few minutes from Squaw Valley, Northstar and Alpine Meadows, with 6 other major ski resorts just 20-30 minutes away. In summer, it's all about the water and warm weather! We love to fly-fish, roast marshmallows, enjoy the riverside patio and firepit, and have b-b-q's in the backyard, along the Truckee River. Then, we take the boat and jet-ski's out to enjoy a day or weekend camping at one of the many local reservoirs. Boating on Lake Tahoe is also great way to enjoy the sun, water and many water-front restaurants! When it comes to shopping and dining, the little town of Truckee (just 10 minutes away) has it all, and Tahoe City is just a short 20 minute drive away. We have also made an investment in a generator that will automatically keep all the power on in the event of an outage.
