About this house rental

This is a one of a kind property. This has historical signifigance as the Women's Wyethia Garden Club in the early 1900s, with a big beautiful meeting room, a kitchen and bathroom that over the years has been remodeled and added on to. The upstairs entry level still has the large beautiful room with a gas fireplace, a surround sound stereo system and flat screen television. The dining area is located in this large room as well. The kitchen looks into the living/dining area and has full service dish ware and appliances. The back deck looks down onto the Truckee River and has access to the lower level and yard. Walking into this large room from what looks like a small front entry is truly breathtaking. There is a gas barbeque, patio table, and chairs on the deck.

Downstairs are the two bedrooms, each with their own bathroom. The master has a larger bathroom with large shower. The second bedroom has a lovely tiled bathroom and a terrific river view. Both bedrooms have private doorways to the exterior lower deck. The larger master bedroom has a flat screen television and dvd player. Full size washer and dryer are in the downstairs hallway.

I have just added a brand new king mattress and a brand new full mattress to the bedrooms, based on renters' suggestions for a more comfortable sleep. Love the Tuft and Needle mattresses! Both bedrooms now have full curtains for morning coverage....I like to wake up in the dark, but not everyone does!

Fall asleep listening to the sound of the Truckee River which is very actively flowing by. The location of this house is convenient for enjoying the charming historical aspects of downtown Truckee. A walk into town is often faster than a drive and a park! At the entrance to this one way street there is a coffee shop for a morning walk and coffee. All of the accouterments of this home are of high quality and tasteful design. All recreational activities are nearby. The home is listed with the Town of Truckee - Registration Certificate Number (RCN)1166g

This historic home on the Truckee River surpassed any expectations I may have had. Met up with a family member who spends summers in Truckee, and the home's location was perfect for exploring Truckee's historic district, which is only two blocks away with shops, great restaurants, a fascinating history museum, a walking trail along the river, a regional park, and more. The home is tucked away in a quite historic neighborhood where you can enjoy nature at her best from the gorgeous raised deck which looks out to the river and beyond. Dinny, the owner, was amazing to work with! The River House is a definite 10!!!

This house was perfect and the host is amazing. There are not many choices for comfortable rentals right on the river. This one was perfect for us in every way. The house felt more like staying at a friend's home rather than a vacation rental. It was comfortable, location couldn't be beat, and Dinny was not only on top of every detail but was also just friendly and kind. We will absolutely be renting this home again in the future.

This location was beautiful. We were right on the river and just a short walk to town and trails.

It was a lovely three night stay. The backyard River and hearing the water flow was magic. Great bed, kitchen and living room with lots of windows.
