Custom Home In The Lost Sierras w/ Pool Table

Custom Home In The Lost Sierras w/ Pool Table

8/10 Good
"Between the two bathrooms, there was less than 1 roll of toilet paper.Didn’t realize that the second bathroom was downstairs, so a bit inconvenient for people in bedrooms upstairs. If this was in the property description, I missed it.WiFi connection was very unreliable; don’t know if this is typical or related to the Reno fires disrupting service.Alan was great to deal with from start to finish and the place was clean and very comfortable."

Sierra City Loves Falls Cabin - Walking Distance to Waterfall & PCT

Sierra City Loves Falls Cabin - Walking Distance to Waterfall & PCT

8/10 Good
"The cabin was great. No issues at check in or during our stay. Only things noticed were lots of dog hair on the rug in the living room, the back double doors wouldn't lock, the door upstairs leading to the balcony and down to the driveway wouldn't lock, and the windows occasionally came off their closing-mechanism so you had to close them by hand. Otherwise, it was a nice cabin for the price. Would definitely stay here again."
