I loved staying in this houes. It was very organized and stocked with everything.
Here for our daughter’s graduation from UNR, and this property was perfect. Plenty of room for everyone to have privacy. Plenty of room for a group dinner. Easy to university and ski areas. We will definitely come back!!
We had a great stay in Reno! The house was very spacious and clean. It was well equipped with everything you need for a stay. The beds were comfortable and clean. The patio was a great additional space with a beautiful view of the Reno skyline, and an amazing little nature trail accessible from the back gate. Tabitha was a fantastic host! Very responsive and friendly. We would definitely stay here again!
This property has so much space! It’s comfortable and clean. We appreciated all the extras that made it even more comfortable with everything we needed. The backyard is relaxing with a view of the canyon and downtown. We hung out all day at the house and it felt almost as if we were home.

This house was nicely stocked with towels and kitchen supplies. It could have been cleaner but it wasn’t bad.
Host is great! We were able to have our grandson’s 1st birthday party BBQ. Fenced backyard with a view. Our dogs had a great time. Beautiful evening view of city lights. Thank you Tabitha!
This was the perfect place for our family to stay while in Reno for our sons graduation fron UNR. Very well stocked. Beds were comfy. Backyard roomy and perfect for BBQ. Tabitha was amazing as the host. She was very responsive and helpful. Able to provide extra seating for our family outdoors and helped make our visit a success!
Great location for our needs: close to downtown as well as parkland/open space. Home is not new but clean with all necessary amenities. Family friendly with plates and cups for the littles, as well as toys, small furniture and board games. Backyard looks towards downtown…great view at night. Initial contact with owner took a few days, but she was very informative with suggestions for our visit and when I had a question during our stay she responded right away.
Overall, a good place to stay. From reading the description, I assumed that there would be 5 bedrooms with doors. The "5th bedroom" has no door or privacy and is adjacent to the living room. The only inside access to the garage is also through this bedroom. This created problems for the two people trying to sleep in that room. We were there in the summer, and the A/C unit had trouble cooling the main living area in the heat of the afternoon. There was excellent communication with the owner.
