About this property

Cozy hillside getaway with space for whole family - in the heart of Tahoe Donner

Sweeping valley views greet you as you step into your Tahoe Donner vacation oasis. Offering easy access for vacationers, luxurious shared resort amenities (nominal fee required) like pools, hot tubs, and the Tahoe Donner public beach, and set in a serene neighborhood, relaxation will come easily as at this Tahoe getaway.
Surrounded by the vast Sierra Nevada pines, 13 miles from world-class skiing, and five miles to fun water activities on the shores of Donner Lake, your options for adventure are endless. Please note, during the winter weather, a 4x4 vehicle is recommended to access the home safely.
Beautiful vaulted, wood-beamed ceilings and the wide-open main living area immediately set a relaxing tone, as you revel in the ambiance of the mountain-chic decor. Enjoy the sun-lit landscapes from the living room view and soak in the natural mountain beauty.
Curl up in one of the over-size chairs and flip through the cable channels on the flatscreen HDTV while the warmth from the gas fireplace fills the room.
Get everyone together for a fun movie night when you pop in your favorite DVD, or log in to your personal Netflix account while you pass the popcorn.
Keep the laughs echoing long into the evening when you break out the provided board games as everyone gathers around the dining room table.
Connect to the in-house WiFi to send off that last work email, while you relax on the expansive private deck and bask in beauty of the unparalleled views. The private washer/dryer will make sure dirty clothes stay at bay.
The custom stone-tile floor kitchen gives the gourmets a chance to create a culinary delight. Bright and open, the kitchen is adorned with granite counters, a chef's gas range, and stainless steel appliances, making it easy to let your inner chef shine.
After a long day of fun-filled alpine adventures, the soft king-size bed in the large master bedroom will lull you to sleep. Soak in the jetted-tub in the master en suite bathroom as you sip a glass of wine and enjoy the tree-lined views from your bubble bath. In the second and third rooms you'll find two more queen-size beds, and plenty of storage space for all of your Tahoe treasures.
The fourth and fifth bedrooms both offer a set of twin size beds, perfect for your younger vacationers to enjoy. This five-bedroom, three-and-a-half bathroom home can easily welcome up to 10 guests with room to spare! This home can also be rented as a three-bedroom/single-story unit that sleeps six.
The long list of shared resort amenities that you'll have access to will make staying here both fun and relaxing. Community tennis courts and a shuttle to the Tahoe Donner Golf Course will let you play close to home without the hassle. Peddle through the peaceful neighborhood with the two adult bikes provided. Afterwards take a refreshing dip in the pool at the Trout Creek Rec Center, or ease you muscles in the shared hot tub or sauna.
Grab your skis and your snow gear, and make the quick 13 miles drive to the pristine slopes of Sugar Bowl Ski Resort. With a wide array of snow-filled activities, and a large backcountry course for those daring enough to try, there will be something for all skill levels to delve into.
Launch the provided kayak off of the shared dock in the Donner Lake Marina and set out to explore the crystal clear waters just five miles from your front door. After a long day on the lake, swing by The Lodge Restaurant and Pub on the golf course, for a signature cocktail and decadent bite to eat.
Come experience the variety of alpine activities at your fingertips when you book your stay at this North Lake Tahoe vacation rental.

Wonderful house with a great view

We had an amazing time at the property. The view out the back was spectacular and there was a ton of room for us between the 5 bedrooms and 2 large living rooms. Would stay here again!

Great spot

Great spot and great location. Less crowded than lake tahoe but still only a quick drive away. 10 mins from downtown truckee also. Lots of room in the cabin. Would very much reccommend this spot.

Truckee winter wonderland

Beautiful view! We had 5 adults, a teenager and 3 kids and had plenty of room! There are 2 separate sitting areas which is nice especially with kids. There is also a kitchenette downstairs. I could see this house working really well for 2 families as you can each have your own space.

Perfect for a snowy getaway with multiple families

We stayed at this property during a snowstorm with three other families. We had kids of all ages with us. This house was great for hosting multiple families. There was plenty of room for everyone to spread out. The kitchen was well stocked with everything needed for cooking meals. The backyard was the perfect place to play in the snow. We really enjoyed our stay and will for sure come back.

Perfect Family Retreat`

We had the pleasure of staying at this property while Truckee was in the middle of a series of winter storms and it was BEAUTIFUL. The upstairs and downstairs living room areas were great for our family, as the kids felt that they had their own space, and the adults were able to have a little bit of peace and quiet. There was plenty of room for everyone to spread out, but not feel isolated. The outdoor area was great with plenty of room for the kids to play in the snow. Communication with the property manager could have been better, but this is where the owner stepped in and was exceptional. Looking forward to another great stay. Will definitely book again!

Family Snow Trip

We had a wonderful time. As others have said, the house is perfect for multi-generational families. We had 7 adults and 3 kids (5-13 years). We had plenty of room. The adults enjoyed the Super Bowl upstairs and the kids were entertained downstairs. There are new smart TV’s on both levels. The kids had a great time playing in the snow. We never left the house! They spent hours outside. The 5 year old is a major minecraft fan. He spent so much time (crafting) the snow bank. We plan to return. It was the perfect house for us!

Stranded

I rented this property. As I arrived I couldn’t get the link to access the code to enter. Called the host and she couldn’t help. As I was struggling with signal, the house owner arrived and said this wasn’t rented when I had over a month with this rental.. called Vrbo and definitely helped! Very helpful just odds I had a bad experience!
