We took a day trip from Tahoe to Truckee and were looking for a Christmas present for our parents. Immediately upon walking into the store the atmosphere and the staff were friendly and welcoming. We found a wedding vase with a wonderful story behind it as a gift for our parents. The ladies graciously offered to gift wrap it and the young lady that did it did a beautiful job. Every one in the store was so wonderfully welcoming. I plan on going back one more time before our trip back home as there is another gift there I feel I have to have! If the store hadn't been so great I wouldn't even consider making the trip back.

This is one of the cute little shops in downtown Truckee and been in California I wasn't surprised how expensive it was. We came in for a wedding and my husband needed a bolo tie as he forgot his at home. The one he got here was what I believe a fake stone and a thin leather string, not ugly but very small. They do have nice things and nice jewelry but definitely not my style. Do come in, staff was very nice, friendly and helpful.

White Buffalo is a sweet little shop located in downtown Truckee. It's chock full of jewelry, little touches for the home and more. If I'm being honest, a lot of items did not suit my personal taste, but you can't win 'em all. The shop was clean with room to move about. The staff was extremely nice. Towards the back of the shop there is an excellent assortment of greeting cards. Perhaps my favorite part of White Buffalo was the unexpected variety of hot sauce. It's definitely with a browse!

We stopped here to browse because it was near the store we were going to visit, (which happened to be closed at the time.) It is a long narrow store with two aisles. There are some inexpensive items as well as expensive ones, an almost random mix. The jewelry was pretty, and also varied in pricing. My wife did purchase a necklace. The person assisting us was patient and accommodating, yet friendly, even though she knew we may or may not have purchased anything. So service is excellent.

My husband and I visit the Truckee/Tahoe area at least once or twice a year. Because of Truckee's Western quaintness, we always make sure to go downtown to walk around the shops and have a bite to eat. One shop that is a MUST to visit is White Buffalo. I love its eclectic selection of gifts. You can always find something for anyone you may need to buy for, including yourself!! I've purchased several lovely pieces of jewelry, some of which I've had for years. The staff is friendly and very helpful. Anne K. Livermore Ca

My husband and I have been huge fans of this store for about 10 years. We look forward to our visits with the super welcoming owners, managers and sales folks every time we vacation in the Tahoe area. I've been a Native American jewelry collector for many years and I've added some gorgeous pieces from the Buffalo each time we visit. Can't say enough about their selection of carefully curated goods, jewelry, etc and the delightful experience of shopping with people who clearly love the special space they have created!

Current covid precautions are great. The staff is very knowledgeable about Native Made goods and explains how they purchase their items when you ask. Most is Navajo but they have some Hopi and Zuni. They have a nice selection of jewelry, Pueblo and Navajo pottery, and textiles as well as beautifully done drums, pipes and more. Prices are about what I would expect for Truckee. You can also find Tahoe and Truckee specific items such as Lake topography woodwork and of course cool t-shirts. I am deducting one star only because there aren't clearer distinctions between Native Made and other items. As someone who prefers only native made items (not native appropriated) I would like to see signage distinguishing the two. Other than that, nice store with nice people.
