2 family +; dog friendly retreat; HOT TUB; 4bed, 2 bath; well stocked kitchen.

FULLY REMODELED! Summer of 2022.

This beautiful home is great for multiple families or just one family looking to spread out!

Picture yourself on the large deck looking out onto the pine trees while you BBQ with your friends and family. Enjoy the great room with large picturesque windows while watching the snowfall gently on the pine trees. Try not to let the view distract you, as you 'work from home' on the large table with seating for 8+. There is plenty of room for the whole family to enjoy the mountains with four bedrooms and a loft/game room. Compete in a friendly game of foosball, 1980's PacMan or a real Casino slot machine competition while enjoying a board game, movie or play PS3 on the big screen tv.

The living space is bright and roomy, with towering ceilings and large windows that frame the trees. Planning a quiet night in? You'll have WIFI, a wood burning stove, complete with wood, a large hearth with seating around, a sofa which pulls out to a queen sized sleeper; a flat screen tv; which also includes cable, a DVD player, Netflix; and a selection of adult and kid games to keep you entertained.

The fully equipped and recently remodeled kitchen is the perfect place to cook for a crowd. In the mornings enjoy coffee or tea with a Cuisinart drip coffee with Kuerig machine. You can make a single serve or a full pot for your group. Feel right at home as you're preparing your meals with all the comforts of home, on brand new state of the art appliances, including pots and pans, most spices you may need and clean up will be a breeze with the large copper farm sink.

With four bedrooms, this Tahoe Donner home will accommodate 8-10 people comfortably. (Children under 13 do not count towards these numbers).

The downstairs master bedroom has a king sized adjustable tempurpedic bed along with a flatscreen tv that includes internet, Netflix and cable. The 2nd downstairs bedroom has a twin xl over queen bunk; bedroom #3 upstairs has a new king sized bed along with an internet only tv (featuring Netflix). Bedroom #4 upstairs has a queen sized sleep number bed plus a bunkbed along with an internet only tv & Netflix. Also the upstairs loft hosts a twin sized pullout sofa sleeper; along with Foosball, PacMan, a casino type slot machine and a flatscreen tv with internet and Netflix.
The downstairs bathroom, is a full bath which has been recently remodeled. The counters are beautiful granite with a copper sink. The shower has large glass doors and stunning tile walls and floors. The upstairs bathroom is a full bath with a tub and is large enough for the whole family; which is also recently remodeled with beautiful granite counters and a copper sink.

As part of your rental, you will have guest passes that will allow you access to Tahoe Donner facilities including pools, children's play center, tennis, snow play area, beach access at nearby Donner Lake, fitness center, and an extensive system of hiking trails.
When you're not enjoying the myriad of activities Tahoe Donner has to offer, you'll also have use of the private deck with patio chairs, a Weber Gas 4 Burner Grill, a patio table and a private hot tub. Weather permitting, you'll also have access to the comfortable fire pit, along with chairs to warm up on a beautiful evening to roast marshmallows and share stories from the days events. Seasonal games include; Ladderball, Corn Hole, Ring Toss, snowshoes, sleds and saucers.

Ski options abound within 15 miles such as Boreal, Sugar Bowl, Soda Springs, Northstar and Squaw Valley. In the warmer months, visit North Shore; including Tahoe City, Kings Beach, and Incline Village about 20 miles away and worth the drive if you have kids. Closer is the main hub of Truckee with modern cafes, shopping and rustic historical sites.

Additional home amenities include, a private washer and dryer, Snow Shoes, Sleds, Saucers, Paddle Boards and Kayaks. Visit Lake Tahoe and have fun at your finger tips when you stay at this Tahoe Donner Mountain Retreat.

Lovely stay!
We greatly enjoyed staying in this property! There six of us, plus two dogs, but there was space for more. The kitchen is very well equipped, so we enjoyed cooking! It was great to be able to step right outside for snowshoeing and cross-country skiing in the woods, and to soak in the hot tub and relax by the fire later. The host was very communicative and the process of checking in and out was smooth. Would love to come back!

Perfect cabin for ski weekend with 2 families!
This cabin was the perfect cabin for our 2 families of 4. The layout is great with enough space for everyone. The beds were very comfortable, and the kids loved all the games & arcade games! The kitchen had everything you could need to cook any meal. Jill was excellent to work with. Would highly recommend this cabin to anyone!

Wonderful family vacation home
From the moment you walk in, you get the sense that this is a meticulously cared for and adored family home. There’s a beautiful big kitchen for cooking, plentiful activities for the kiddos, and a lovely hot tub. Spacious rooms and many lovely amenities make this the perfect destination for a family vacation. We’re already looking at the calendar for our next stay. The owners are beyond lovely and highly recommend!

A Dream of a Cabin!
This cabin is fantastic! So cozy yet spacious and has every amenity you’ll need. The neighborhood is so cute and neighbors are very kind. The hot tub was easy to use. I am very picky when it comes to accommodations and this cabin/home was perfect in every way. Clean. Comfortable. Great location. Tons of fun games to play. Very well maintained. The cherry on top are the owners. So kind and accommodating. We will absolutely stay here again!

Great snowy weekend!
We had a great time celebrating a weekend with friends in a beautiful Donner house! It was comfortable and the owners took a lot of pride in their Donner home and it showed. The kitchen was fantastic and fully equipped, my dog loved the dog toys she found and the kids had a blast playing in the snow! Hot tubbing in the snow is always a treat and even more so when it's actually snowing!! My only wish was that we would have had a three day weekend; none of us wanted to leave!!! We can't wait to go back!

Very kind owners and a great place to get away
We had a large group of 14 people for a community retreat and the owners were happy to accommodate us. We felt very welcomed and supported during our entire weekend stay and little details like the welcome basket and jars of toiletries in the bathrooms were really welcoming, home-y! We loved the large living room for our retreat "sessions" and the large deck, fire pit, hot tub, and games made for a lot of different ways for us to relax, play and enjoy one another. All amenities you could want were included! It was an awesome time and we will definitely consider this home first if we plan a retreat like this in the future!

Great Truckee Getaway
Thank you Jill for such a lovely stay at your amazing cabin! The house is a perfect set up for two families. We had a blast hanging out in the gameroom loft playing epic foosball tournaments, Pacman, and the slot machine. The well stocked kitchen had everything we needed to cook gourmet meals at home. We appreciated the little touches, like zip lock bags, storage containers and bag clips. We loved using the snow shoes to explore right out the back yard. The hot tub was a hit too! Jill is a great host - she is responsive and checked in a few times to make sure we had everything we needed. We'll definitely return!

WOW! Jill, the owner of this property, was an absolute joy to work with. She responded promptly and was so very accommodating. This property is the best VRBO I have stayed in. The eye for detail is amazing, anything that you have at home and more is provided. The home is extremely clean, the layout is so accommodating for family and friends. The beds are so very comfortable. The view is beautiful, especially enjoyable when sitting in the spa. I can't say enough about this property. You won't be disappointed if you stay, we will go back for sure. Thank you!

Absolutely Amazing!
Far and away the best vacation rental we have ever rented in Tahoe. Everything is at your fingertips with the thoughtful design and layout. It is a very comfortable home with solid construction that was not drafty like a lot of Tahoe homes. The wood burning stove was a joy to use and enjoy with tons of wood provided by the owner. The first fire was perfectly pre-made for us so all we had to do was light it up and kick back after a long drive. All of the beds were very comfortable, as were the sofas and recliners. The large table made for an excellent Christmas dinner venue with plenty of seating for our party of 8. The list goes on and we are excited to visit again in the summer. Thanks for sharing your home with us, guys. We had the best Christmas vacation ever!

Ski trip with friends
We stayed at the house in mid-March, 2023. This was an annual ski trip with a group of friends from high school and college. The snow was piled high along the street, but the driveway and (most importantly) the rear deck with access to the hot tub was cleared away. First, Jill was very easy to work with and communicative. She texted me the information I needed, when I needed it, and responded right away. In terms of the house, it was perfect for our group. Beautiful kitchen and bathrooms - and the most well-stocked kitchen you can imagine - from dishware, to utensils, to a full spice rack - we had everything we needed for meals at the house. Towels, linens and blankets were provided - and more than we needed. The house set up is perfect for the winter, with a vestibule/mudroom at the front. We would stay again - and I have a hunch some of the folks would bring their families to stay as well. Thank you.

Nice House with good amenities
This is a lovely house & Jill was very friendly and easy to communicate. My family came up to snowboard, my 11yr 1st time so I booked this house since it had a game room for kids in case snowboarding didn’t work out. Unfortunately we couldn’t entirely enjoy the game room, missing charger to the Xbox and slot machine was jammed. We called Jill, she tried ordering a replacement charger but it wouldn’t come in time. The previous family jammed the slot machine. So it was a bummer but the kids still enjoyed foosball and pacman. Overall I would recommend staying here, good location & other amenities. Pros: 1. Spacious 2. Big backyard, lots of snow for the kids to play & build snowman 3. Lots of supplies (unlike other where they give you starter supplies for 1 day). Kitchen is fully stocked many extra items like ziplock bags and tuberwares to use. Large island which is nice for us to leave out snack and food for the kids 4. Wood stove to keep the place cozy at night & a rack to dry our gloves & hat. 5. Hot tub was a hit for our older kids after snowboarding Cons: 1. Washer and dryer is not connected to the house (you have to go outside into the garage to do the laundry). Summer might not be a big deal but winter it’s too cold so no one wants to go outside. 2. Mattress in the downstairs room is firm, it’s a nice mattress with massage and different positions but my husband is a side sleeper so he had a hard time. 3. Mattress upstairs is firm, daughter used the comfy couch.

Fabulous and Cozy Stay
This home was perfect for a girls weekend for me and my daughter's four friends. They were able to play in the snow, go in the hot tub and get cozy by the wood-burning fireplace. There was also a ton of space to spread out and relax comfortably for all of us. The kitchen - and house, in general - were very well stocked and communication was seamless. Would love to stay here again!

Thanksgiving Gathering
We had a memorable Thanksgiving gathering including our children & grandchildren. The house was very comfortable for our group, and well equipped in all ways… the kitchen was especially great considering our group enjoys cooking… the outdoor space (snowy at the time of our visit) and jacuzzi were enjoyed by all. The cabin is cozy and tastefully decorated in a woodsy cabin motif - making it a very special mountain getaway. A great place to make special memories…
