Full weekend getaway with the pups
The property was in an excellent location, just across the street we could pick up the trail that leads to downtown Truckee. It was a wonderful 2 mile walk with the dogs to a very friendly downtown neighborhood. The hot tub was clean and a wonderful addition for the cool evenings of Truckee.

Fabulous property, great location!
Black Dog Hideaway was the perfect lodging for us. They are kids and pet friendly, and are in close proximity to ski resorts, grocery store and more. We had 6 adults and 2 kids in our party. Everyone had a comfortable bedding option. Kitchen and common areas were spacious so folks could hang out or spread out. Foosball and ping pong table + board games were a plus for hanging out and having fun after a day of skiing. Everyone, including the pooch, had a wonderful time!

Short Get-a-Way
The picture are great but the property itself is very dark. We had two small grandchildren with us that were not allowed upstairs except to sleep. This would be great for older children to use the games upstairs and keep them occupied while in the house. We used tje fooseball and ping pong table in the garage everyday and the girls 3&4 had a great time. Evening were filled with games. We spent most of our days outdoors and visiting friends in Truckee. The house could use a little updating but was well equipped with everything that we needed. Chris at Alpenglow was very responsive to our needs. Checkin and check out was easy.

Great house for a family!
This house is perfect for a family. Lots of games/things to do to keep everyone entertained. 20 minute drive to Northstar. Access to Tahoe Donner amenities, which was a nice perk. The hot tub wasn't working when we arrived on 12/23, but Chris was able to get an electrician out the day after Christmas (!!) to get it running again. Our sore skiing legs very much appreciated that! Would recommend and rent from this company again.

Disappointed
This location was VERY expensive for what you got. The cost of add-ons DOUBLED the online price. The commucation from the property manager boarded on harassment as we were spammed with rules several times before our stay. The decor was cluttered and dated. Basic necessities like soap and kleenex were missing and there was only 1 towel and 1 washcloth per person for a 3 night stay. I guess we were expected to do our own laundry while on vacation. We were expected to strip our beds, run the dishwasher and take out the trash, all while paying hundreds for housekeeping. Very disappointing.

Great house for family
This place was heaven for the kids. Games, video games (incl. Wii Sports) and a big backyard wooded area. We also liked having all 3 bedrooms on the same floor. The deck is huge, and stays warm and sunny. Two umbrellas keep the heat manageable. The kitchen had everything. Chris from the property management company was quite responsive. Great place. Thank you.

Perfect family getaway for all ages
We had the best time! It was a great house for a family with teenagers, younger kids and dogs. Love the big meadow out back with so many trees and rocks to climb on. Hot tub on the back deck was fun too. Location was perfect for neighborhood walks and easy access to the grocery story, very central to downtown truckee as well as donner lake. We will definitely come back! House was exactly as described!

Family weekend in Tahoe
I always try to celebrate my husband's birthday in March by staying a weekend in Tahoe to get some time in the snow since he loves to snowboard. This year we had the best time staying at this awesome cabin. My brother in law and his family stayed with us and there were kids ranging from teen to toddler. There were plenty of games for them to stay entertained and the arcade games were a HIT!! The hot tub was amazing and just right after a day in the snow. The cabin had all the necessities in the kitchen, updated appliances and plenty of towels. We enjoyed going to Tahoe donner for snow play and the passes were appreciated!! I LOVED all the decor... I would absolutely recommend this cabin!

Got a pet, this is the place!!
The name of the house had me at the title- BLACK DOG HIDEAWAY… Had a wonderful stay with our family along with Dillon our dog. The house was spotless, clean and stocked with everything you need for a great weekend. The home had three bedrooms upstairs, and plenty of beds for a large group. Plenty of board games, two video machines, and a ping pong table. For adults a great deck out back that has a very nice hot tub. The neighborhood is very quiet- and is very walkable. Truckee is very close, for those nights out. The owners have gone to great length to make your stay enjoyable!!

Well-located and well-stocked home.
This home had everything a family could need for a great visit to Truckee, especially if you have a dog. (This home really loves dogs.) Great location, with a beautiful "green space" out back. We stayed for 16 nights and it made a great home base. We made good use of the recreation center, pools, and marina. This house could have been a little cleaner, however, and the refrigerator/freezer completely went out on us in the midst of a heat wave. We lost quite a bit of food. If we had only been there for a couple nights it could have ruined the trip. Overall, we'd be happy to stay there again.
