  a guest from Rancho cordova, CA does not recommend this vacation rental.

  The cabin was perfect for location, cleanliness, and overall cozy feel. It was a great place to spend Christmas as a family of 6. Plenty of room and pretty comfortable beds for the most part. Location was awesome as it didn’t snow at our cabin but we drove 10-15 mins and hit tons of snow. 10 mins from
  The house was black oak casino and we loved that! House was left very clean for us.
  
  Downsides. You get what you pay for. Cabin was reasonable price but we ended up buying our own trash bags, paper towels and toilet paper. There wasn’t even hand soap in the bathrooms. No toiletries of any kind. No coffee. No towels or bedding. I’ve stayed in about 20 Airbnb/Vrbo homes and every home has had at least half of these things (most have all of them) but this home has nothing. I appreciate hosts that spend the extra few dollars to offer these amenities as it’s just a courtesy when people are spending thousands to stay in your home. If you chose to rent this place, just remember to pack your whole house and take it with you.

  We have stayed at this same cabin for the last 14 years for New Years, we absolutely love it! The only thing that was overlooked this time was the ovens. Something had clearly spilled from someone cooking so when I went to use the ovens, they smoked pretty badly. That's it though, all was good as usual.

  We had a wonderful time! The layout was perfect for two families and a good location. The home had all the basics we needed and was nicely fenced if you have a pet or little ones. The downfall was it was extremely hot when we visited and there was no AC and only 1 box fan for the entire home.The cleaning crew was about an hour behind so it delayed the chk-in by an hour. Other than that we had a great time.

  We stayed at this cabin in late June of 2018 and enjoyed ourselves very much! The weather cooperated and wasn't too warm - although this side of the valley can get quite warm. The cabin is very pleasant and well-supplied. Our dogs loved the fenced back yard!
  
  When we visit Twain Harte, we go out to eat a fair amount of the time. On this trip we tried a new restaurant for us - Three Bears by the golf course. Good homestyle cooking! If you go on a Friday, they have a prime rib special that is very good.
  
  We're looking forward to returning!!

  Carrie B from Suisun City, CA recommends this vacation rental

  We booked this home for a Christmas family vacation. We were extremely pleased with the layout and the amount of space this home had to offer. We had a large party over for Christmas Eve dinner. The kitchen was fully stocked other than a few specialty spices and such, which was to be expected. We spent most of our time in the kitchen, large living room and outdoors by the firepit. You are required to bring your own sheets/towels, but there are plenty of blankets, etc for extra covers. I would have liked the comforters provided to have been freshly washed upon our arrival, but overall, everything was very clean. I would absolutely recommend this home and will be requesting a stay here if we visit Twain Harte again! Thank you so much!

  We spent 3 nights at Happy Trails over Thanksgiving . This was our second time staying in this cabin and we can't wait to go back. The cabin is really nicely laid out and has everything you could possibly need. The owners have thought of everything. It is very close to downtown, but feels tucked away. The yard is completely fenced in, so really great for our dogs.

  We loved our stay and appreciated the added plus of spending some time at the Twain Harte Lake with our extended family. We never saw the grandchildren much until we called them for meals, as they were so busy with ping pong, foose ball and many other games provided. All in all we had a super stay! Our only wish would be that the beautiful home had working air conditioning. We happened to be there during the hottest week of the year, but we managed with the fans that were provided.

  Sue Y from Lancaster, CA recommends this vacation rental

  We vacation with our dogs. A securely fenced yard is a requirement. The backyard worked for our German Shepherd. We did not bring the other 2 dogs, but if we had they would have also been fine. (27 pound terrier mix and a 27 pound spaniel mix) The chain link fencing had no escape routes unless your dog either digs under, jumps over, or is a fence climber.
  
  Our other requirement is a washer and dryer. I am not spending any of my vacation time at the laundromat.
  
  The free Wifi and cable TV were also appreciated.
  
  It was warm/hot there in August with no breeze, but it cooled off nicely at night. We used the portable box fan that was provided. There were only 2 of us plus the dog. If there had been more we might have wished for more fans to be used in different parts of the house.
  
  The family room and living room are on opposite ends of the house. This might be advantageous for larger groups with kids and adults. (Be sure to look for the secret door in the family room.)
  
  Lots of spices were provided, but many were out of date. This reminded me of my own kitchen. Bring your own if this is important to you. There are quite a few pots and pans. There is a need for replacement frying pans as the stove requires flat bottom pans, and the old frying pans no longer have flat bottoms.
  
  The special laundry detergent that is required for the front loading washing machine is provided.
  
  We enjoyed the Farmer's Market on Fridays and being able to cook at home. There are at least 2 pet-friendly restaurants. We were able to have dinner on the patio with our dog at the Mexican restaurant. They had a shrimp entree that was wonderful.
  
  The only reason I marked 4 stars rather than 5 on cleanliness was because each time I had to retrieve the dog's ball from under or behind the 2 couches it was obvious that no one cleans there.
  
  Our entire deposit was returned in one week.
  
  Happy Vacationing!<b

  Two grandparents, two grown up children, their spouses, and four grandchildren. Our third year at Happy Trails, Loved the new fridge, new range and oven. New toaster, toaster oven combo not a good big deal Our two yorkie poos think Happy Trails is another home. Every year, I sit on the patio on the enormously comfortable reclining chairs and am filled with serenity looking at the huge surrounding trees. We will be returning next year. Our only complaint is the $5.00 per person fee at the lake. This is $40/day for our family. We were there 14 days...or $560.00. I know this is not the cabin owners fault, but it still rankles a bit.

  Best place we've stayed at for children and pets. The kitchen is modern, clean and well equipped. Large bathtub and large shower, also. Game room/den is isolated from the rest of the house. Ping pong table was an unexpected surprise. Fenced in yard. Didn't even see the garage until we were ready to leave. A fairly steep driveway, but safe and plenty of parking. Five or six steps to the front door, and almost everything else is on one level. The lake privileges are a must for our family!

  Had a nice stay. Yard and Fence were great for our pet. House was nice and clean, but kitchen could use a few more amenities - refrigerator took a long time to get cold, no coffee grinder, could use more large serving bowls... Also, water pressure was very low throughout cabin. Kids loved the games and ping pong table.

  We had a great getaway. The place, the weather, and the quiet were just what we needed. At the end there was an emergency health issue, but that all came out OK. The only suggestion I would have is better lighting in the living room for reading. I actually moved a lamp from the bunk bed bedroom to the living room so my husband and I had proper light for reading.

  We had a great time at Black Hawk 63. It was spacious, very clean, well appointed and the yard for the dogs was incredible. The only problem we had was with the hot water heater. We didn't realize that the pilot had been turned to "pilot only" so the heat didn't come on. We found this out with our first shower. My husband found the problem and saved the day. I would suggest including a note with instruction so that people can make this adjustment when they arrive.
  Thank you to Brenda (I hope that's the right name)for all your help. We'll be back. Susan Allen

  We had a great stay. Very comfortable inside, with lots of room for our kids--the playroom is great! Our dog had trouble deciding where to relax, and the fenced yard was a relief. The kitchen was well outfitted, probably the best we've seen in a rental, and we really felt at home with so much room. We had a great time skiing, first time with our kids, and the short drive to Dodge Ridge was very convenient. We love Twain Harte, would definitely stay here again and the people at Twain Harte Vacation Rentals make it all very fast and easy to have a great stay.
