Very nice place. Very hospitable, and family friendly. What i really liked is how they had everything for kids, and thought of everything a stay may need. Everything from candles for a cake extra lighters or even having stocked seasonings for food. The game room is the highlight of the place and its nice open space is perfect for gatherings.

Great place, perfect for our family

We enjoyed this house! It had everything we needed as a family of 10. The downstairs was the perfect space for the kids and It was HUGE bonus to have a second fridge. The house was clean and well appointed. Derek was a great host. He was very responsive. Also, the kids loved the sled hill. Thank you for a great visit!

Derek is an Amazing Host

We had a lovely time at this property in a great neighborhood in Tahoe Donner close to the Tahoe Donner Ski facilities and not too far from Palisades and Alpine. We had some issues with the driveway and think that only cars with very good 4 wheel drive or chains should use it in winter when there is snow and ice but Darin was extremely accommodating and generous even paying a significant amount to have driveway plowed outside of the morning hours when the plow was blocked by our car. House was well appointed in terms of kitchen appliances and had fun games for kiddos and families to enjoy.

Why they chose this property

Tahoe Donner in located in the heart of Tahoe and is surrounded by endless recreational activities. Just in the community you have access to pools, spas, gym, tennis, pickle ball, Golf, hundreds of miles of biking and hiking trails, cross country skiing, downhill skiing, sledding, private Donner lake beach club, two parks for kids, and more! Tahoe Donner is just a short drive away from world class ski resorts and Lake Tahoe. If your looking for a night out or great bar downtown Truckee is only 5 minutes away!

What makes this property unique

The three level cabin is perfect for larger groups or multiple families as it provides space for everyone to spread out and feel at home. Located up against the Truckee Donner green belt there is hiking, biking, and sledding right out the back door. Just a little over a half mile hike from the cabin you can get spectacular panoramic views of Donner lake and Donner summit. Should you be around on 4th of July this is a perfect spot to watch the fireworks over Donner Lake.
