Why they chose this property
We knew the moment we crossed the threshold that we had found the perfect cabin. The attention to craftsmanship wherever you stepped left us in awe of how special a place we had found. The year-round amenities offered within the Tahoe Donner development were a must for our active lifestyle.
What makes this property unique
The cabin was remodeled to suit the tastes of full-time residents who called upon Mark Tanner to help with the job. The feeling of a real home was important to us since we knew we would be spending much of our time here. The intimate dining and living space bring friends and family together for quality time.
