Kid-friendly holiday rentals in Serene Lakes

We had the most amazing stay at this Donner Lake/Truckee gem! The house was spotless, cozy, and had everything we needed for a comfortable trip—plenty of towels, a well-stocked kitchen, and even ping pong and a hot tub. for the. The location is perfect—quiet and peaceful, but still close to downtown Truckee and all the outdoor adventures. We went hiking, shopping, and spent the day at West End Beach which is a 10 min drive . The hosts were super kind, and made sure we had everything we needed for a smooth stay. Highly recommend for families, people with pets (we brought our dog), or anyone looking to enjoy the beauty of the Sierra Nevadas. We can’t wait to come back!

Wow what a great cabin for families! We all had our private areas which is great with little ones. Tons of amenities and things to do around the home. Was fully stocked, updated and very clean. All together one or the best rentals I’ve stayed at! Highly recommend :)

Nice quiet neighborhood, and it’s within a few blocks of lots of things to do (bars, restaurants, etc.). Great backyard with firepit backs up to charming historic stone cottage. Comfy furnishings. Everything feels modern but they kept around some elements of the original vintage charm in the kitchen. Would stay again!

This is THE spot to stay at Serene Lakes! My husband and I spent a week here in the summer with my two little kids (3 and 5) and my in-laws. This is the most well stocked home I have ever stayed at (and we've stayed at a LOT of homes!) The kitchen is huge and has everything you need to cook big family meals. There are tons of games and toys for kids and adults, and the three levels provide plenty of space for multiple generations to spread out. The proximity to the beach is of course the best part. We did a big grocery run on the first day and then only got in the car a couple of times to visit Lake Tahoe. Otherwise we mountain biked, hiked, beached, and paddled right out the door. The perfect family vacation!

Beautiful and very well appointed house in a great area. Ideal for a group weekend (or longer ideally) in and around Truckee. Friendly and very responsive host. Looking forward to staying again!

Highly recommend this place especially because its a perfect place to get away and be with nature. I would book again

Ada's and Robert's house was exactly what we were looking for on a ski vacation. Well designed, stylish, cozy and beautiful. Ada and Robert communicated very well. We will definitely see if this house is available next time we visit Tahoe!

This was our families first time staying in an Airbnb and this place was amazing! Jakob was also a great host! Very communicative and responded promptly to any questions I had! We will definitely be coming back! Such a gem, super relaxing, killer views and great atmosphere.

Anastasia was a wonderful and responsive host. She was incredibly helpful and flexible, making the entire experience smooth and stress-free. Her kindness and attentiveness really stood out. The place itself was charming and beautifully quiet — a perfect, peaceful retreat. Highly recommended!

Really beautiful view! Cute area with restaurants within a 10 min driving distance. A lot of cleaning instructions - washing dishes, taking out trash, washing linens and one of the beds had no pillow cases. Other than that, I would stay again

Great visit, would definitely stay here again. Easy check-in at the front desk. Convenient covered parking garage, great for the winter. Excellent location with easy access to the resort with lots of restaurants. Quick walk to a ski-in/out area behind the complex. There was also a nice gym, pool, spa, etc inside the complex. Thanks for a great visit!

We had an amazing stay at the Studio Chalet. From the moment we arrived, everything exceeded our expectations. The location couldn’t be better. We were right on the lake and close to kayaking, restaurants, and bike trails. Whether we were out exploring or simply enjoying a quiet morning coffee on the deck with lake views, every moment felt special. Our host was incredibly friendly and responsive, providing great local recommendations and making sure we had everything we needed. We can’t wait to come back. Highly recommend this place to anyone looking for a peaceful and memorable Lake Tahoe escape!

Fantastic place. Great location, very clean, and a lot of space. Great for a group or family. The house was supplied better than any I have previously stayed at. Thank you for a great stay!

We loved our stay at The Nest. We flew in for a music festival and didn’t bring our usual gear. Carol was very helpful and loaned us whatever we needed. She’s a wonderful host and her place is cozy and adorable!

My boyfriend and I loved our stay! It was the perfect cosy space for a relaxing weekend. The private beach and pier were very quiet and we had it to ourselves! John was brilliant throughout our stay, sending lots of tips and always on hand for any questions we had. Would recommend to anyone!

- First of all the check-in instructions were super clear and concise, unfortunately we've arrived at about midnight so it was a little dark (as is expected as it's in the woods almost!) however because the instructions were really clear it made it very easy to locate keys and find the accommodation. - The description and pictures provided also show the property in a very accurate manner, it's very beautiful inside and incredibly homely, definitely felt like our own little home away from home. The kitchen facilities are also fully fitted so we've had no trouble cooking 'at home'. - One point worth noting is that the images don't do the location it self justice, the area is absolutely beautiful, full of natural wonder and some amazing views. The best part is a big chunk of said views is within walking distance. - I couldn't reccomend staying here enough, it doesn't even have to be snow season to enjoy this B&B! If it were an option I'd give it more than 5 stars, worth every penny!

We stayed at Eric’s place while in the area for a wedding. The spot is conviently located near downtown Truckee while still being tucked away in a quiet part of the Donner ski resort. Eric was very accomodating of requested check in/out timing due to our wedding events, which made our stay all the more simplified.

Nice, cozy space that had everything we needed. We were there off-season and so it felt a bit isolated as we seemed to be the only people in the building. Also, the snow pack was so high there was almost no light coming through the window, though that couldn't be helped!

My Mother and I just stayed here over Memorial Day. It was absolutely perfect for the two of us. Tahoe Vista is a gorgeous area and the condo was close to everything we wanted to do. Richard gave us great recommendations for restaurants and was very quick to respond to my questions. We wished we would’ve stayed longer. Thank you Richard!

Lara’s place was a fantastic location, perfectly equipped and surprisingly bigger than expected. Thanks so much for a great stay!

Great value, wonderful place

Great location and very comfortable accommodations. Dalius is a great host - definitely recommend staying here!

We had an amazing stay at this cozy condo in Truckee! The place was spotless, comfortable, and had everything we needed for a relaxing getaway. The kitchen was fully stocked, the beds were super comfy, and the fireplace made it extra cozy after a day in the snow.

Cory's cute condo is at a perfect location. It is ideal for a family who are looking for proximity to snow activities as well as beautiful nature. You can literally crawl to the skiing slopes. Our kids enjoyed the bunk bed, games and the balcony overlooking skiing slopes. We definitely would love to visit again.
