About this property
5 Mins to Ski Resort w/ Ping Pong, Pool Table & Deck | Donner Ridge by AvantStay
Welcome to Donner Ridge! This spacious and inviting cabin is the perfect home base for your mountain getaway. Nestled in the heart of Truckee, Donner Ridge is your gateway to everything Lake Tahoe has to offer.
Step inside and be greeted by the warm glow of cherry wood floors, soaring ceilings, and a crackling gas fireplace in the main living area. A pool table takes center stage, inviting friendly competition and plenty of laughter. Adjacent to the living area, the chef's kitchen awaits with granite finishes, stainless steel appliances, and a spacious island with barstool seating, it’s as functional as it is beautiful. Gather around the dining table for family-style meals, lively conversations, and plans for the next day’s adventures. Upstairs, the loft offers additional space to spread out and unwind. Enjoy endless entertainment with the Xbox console, complete with three controllers and a selection of exciting games for everyone to enjoy!
Off of the living area lies the large, private deck, where forest views surround you. Relax and breathe in the fresh mountain air from the comfort of your outdoor retreat. From quiet morning coffee to stargazing in the evening, the deck offers the perfect backdrop for Tahoe’s natural beauty.
With 4 bedrooms and 3.5 bathrooms, Donner Ridge can comfortably accommodate up to 10 guests. The primary suite is a luxurious haven, complete with a king bed, spa-like ensuite bathroom, and access to the rear deck. Bedroom 2 offers a queen bed. Bedroom 3 is a second master suite, also featuring a king bed and a private ensuite bathroom, while Bedroom 4 has two bunk beds that are perfect for kids. A full-size sleeper sofa is available for additional space.

During the summer, explore the hiking trails, bike paths, and the sparkling waters of Donner Lake, only 10 minutes from the cabin. Located less than 10 minutes from local restaurants and just a short drive to Historic Downtown Truckee, you’ll enjoy easy access to charming shops, dining, and year-round recreation.
From cozy evenings by the fire to thrilling days on the slopes or lake, Donner Ridge is a haven for connection, relaxation, and fun. Book your stay today – your Tahoe adventure awaits!
