Our Tahoe Donner retreat has 3 bedrooms upstairs and family/bunkroom downstairs. It can comfortably sleep 8 people (kids under 13 not included - max 11 guests total). There is 3 full bathrooms.

In the summer, the backyard is a park-like setting with outdoor deck, shaded picnic table and lawn. In the winter, this becomes a great snowplay area!

New for 2024- we have installed an air conditioning unit in the living room for the occasional hot summer day.

After a dayout enjoying the beautiful outdoor Tahoe summer or winter, relax in the hot tub on the deck. The kitchen with large center island provides a gathering area while cooking together. The dining table can seat 10 for a nice meal. We love the family movie nights on the 85 inch TV screen in the great room. There are large screen TVs in the master and downstairs bunkroom.

Our house is convenient is convenient to Squaw Valley, Alpine Meadows, and Northstar ski resorts and the quaint downtown of Truckee with many restaurants and shops. Truckee River bike path allows for 6.8 miles of walking/riding from Squaw Valley to Tahoe City. The Truckee River Legacy Trail is a 2.5 mile flat walking/biking trail located at Truckee River Regional Park.

The property is part of the Tahoe-Donner Homeowners Association. Guests (check website for current fees) will have access to the private community pool and spa, tennis courts and the clubhouse amenities and dining, golf at a discounted rate and a private beach and boating marina at Donner Lake. Additionally, Tahoe Donner is home to many other community activities including horse back riding, cross country skiing, downhill skiing, sledding and hiking.

Please note that the driveway is graded. A snow removal service plows the driveway in the winter but if there is snowfall, then chains and/or 4 wheel drive may be required. Ease of travel in the mountains is very much weather dependent in the winter. Homeowner is not liable for difficult driving situations or Tahoe Donner power outages as a result of storm conditions.

    House is awesome and fully equipped! Very spacious and well-designed. Perfect for two families with to stay together. Loved the deck, lawn and hot tub too. We only wished there were lounge chairs for the deck and an iron but other than that house was really well-equipped and the owners were great about responding to a couple hiccups with the hot tub . We would definitely love to rent again in the winter! Thank you!!

    Stayed here 3 years ago and loved it. Returned this year and it was an even better experience. The house has everything! We had great meals in the gourmet kitchen, walks on the trails, easy sleeping in the many beds, and relaxing time in the hot tub. The large garage and ping pong table was a hit. Hours were spent playing ping pong as a family in the evening. The grass area in the back is a unique benefit to this home. Sitting on a blanket in the grass in the shade was a nice way to spend some evening time. Even our little dog enjoyed the grass. Since our last stay, the property has added an air conditioner in the family room which came in clutch. It really helps to keep the main living area cool. We will definitely return again.

    We have returned for a second time to this spacious, beautiful home. Happily, AC has been added in the Great room. It came in handy during our stay. My family and I will back!

    Great location!!! The back patio/grass area was wonderful for the kids to play! The layout of the house was perfect! Plenty of room to have a family gathering. The seating for meals was very accommodating for all! Kitchen handled lots is cooks! But I do have to say the kitchen needed a major clean! The oven,some of the cooking pans were in need of cleaning or replacing. The oven did not heat very well. Also the towels looked well used. I would definitely stay here again if the cleaning crew did a better job

    Possible the best vacation house we’ve ever rented. Open, bright, airy, cozy, well appointed. Backyard is great for hanging out and for the kids, and is a rare amenity for Tahoe homes. Can’t recommend highly enough.

    This house was perfect for a family of 5. Two 15 year olds and a 12 year old. Very comfortable lay out with everything that we needed. House came nicely outfitted with everything we needed, shampoo, beach gear, etc. Location is tucked nicely into the woods with a VERY nice backyard hang out area. Private and large,. All around very pleased with the property!
