About this property
Washoe Wonder - Donner Lake - Serene & Cozy
**Stay Longer With Low Midweek Rates**
Tucked away at the end of Donner Lake's west shore neighborhood, this darling home truly feels like a wooded escape. It's nestled at the base of Donner Peak, with a large back deck that faces towards the summit. When you step into the kitchen, you'll fall in love with the baby blue details, granite counters, and glass cabinets. The kitchen is partially open to the spacious, bright living room, perfect for holding the whole family. Down the hall, you'll find a full bathroom and three bedrooms, including a master with its own en-suite bathroom. The front-facing bedrooms open to a small patio, a perfect place to read in the shadow of the yard's massive Jeffrey pine trees.
If the lake is calling your name this summer, pack your bag and head out the front door - you can walk to Donner Lake's West End Beach in less than 15 minutes, where you can enjoy everything from volleyball to kayak rentals to sandy space for lounging in the sun. With beautiful hiking trails and a vintage ice creamery both less than a mile away, this is the perfect rental for your summer getaway!
