    The house was perfect for our family snow trip, from the rooms to the bathrooms to the kitchen -- there was plenty of space and amenities for everyone. We loved the game room, and the view lives up to the hype!

    Breathtaking views from the top of Donner Mountains overlooking the forest. This lodge was great for multiple families under one roof. The bedrooms were spacious, the amenities were great, and the deck/view is a can’t miss. Would highly recommended this rental property.

    Went here for a ski trip with friends and had an amazing time. The view is even more spectacular in person and the pool table was a great place to hang out after hitting the slopes!

    -1 star for false advertisement -1 star for a leak The welcome book says we have access to amenities for $15 per person which was not true. “Included with your rental are two guest cards providing access to the amenities available in Tahoe Donner. Each guest card allows access for up to four guests over the age of 6. While this can change, guest access fees are currently $15 per person per day.” Included in this list of amenities are donner downhill ski resort so we planned our Sunday to get ready for a ski day. We're all geared up and when we get there they tell us the lift ticket is $86 per person even with the guest card. If we had known it was $86 we wouldn't have wasted our Sunday getting ready. We would have planned for something else. We turned around and went back to the house to play in the yard. Secondly there was a water leak coming from the ceiling in the downstairs tv room.
