Overlook Lake View Lodge by Tahoe Getaways- 4 BR at Tahoe Donner- Dog Friendly w/ Views + Hot Tub

Finding a perfect property for your family vacation is easier said than done, but this luxurious Tahoe Donner Vacation Rental might just be the one. This lodge inspired three-story home is doused with luxury from top to bottom. Warm mountain blends of alder, cherry, custom stonework, and fine furnishings provide plenty of mountain character.

Upon entering, you can't help but be impressed by the view that becomes the focal point of the room. You'll be drawn immediately to the back deck that overlooks Donner Lake and the surrounding mountains. Inside, the living room isn't a bad place to spend your time either and features a floor to ceiling custom granite and wood fireplace. The gourmet kitchen is a chef's dream, and is equipped with stainless steel top-of-the line appliances including a Wolf 6 burner gas range.

The large primary suite completes the main floor and offers access to the back deck, a large flat-screen TV and ensuite bath with large glass shower. Above the great room, your guests will love the game room, offering comfy seating around the flatcreen TV, a dedicated game table, piano, and dedicated work space. A sofa sleeper is ideal for groups needing an extra sleeping space.

Downstairs hosts another spacious primary suite that ensures no one feels slighted. It also offers a king bed, direct access to the back deck (which houses the covered hot tub), as well as it's own flat screen TV, and ensuite bath with jetted bath tub and a private sauna. This floor also offers two additional guest bedrooms, and a fantastic TV room with yet another fireplace, sofa sleeper, and beverage cooler; the perfect spot for kids to snuggle up for a movie after a long day on the hill.

Best spot to watch Donner Lake fireworks!
Beautiful setting - spacious decks on two levels with great Donner Lake views, privacy and hot tub. Lots of comfortable living spaces on three levels. Well equipped open kitchen. Luxurious sleeping arrangements for all. Short drive to Rec Centers and downtown Truckee. Steady freeway background noise sounds like waterfall.

They need a better cleaning crew since they’re charging so much for it
So the majority of house is pretty clean. They had pots and pans and some glasses to use that were all super gross and greasy. They make you put everything in the dishwasher and turn it on when you leave. Unfortunately I don’t think they clean them anymore than that. The inside shelves of the fridge had chunks of food in the corners. Took them two days to respond to a question of how to use the stereo and they didn’t even answer how to do it they just asked if I still couldn’t get it. The sauna took too long to warm up and we never used it. Bear proof trash cans were all full so we had to take our trash with us. Nice location and great house but the cleanliness will never make me want to return. Especially getting reamed for the “cleaning fee”

Donner lake. Labor Day 2021
Great house lots of room for a big family views were great hot tub worked nicely. air conditioning would have been a plus!!! TVs and stereo system are not working we’re hoping to watch some football and listen to music in the main room and none of that functioned properly even after checking with the property management and giving us instructions coming to find out they’re not operational at all.

Excellent local hiking
We enjoyed the Donner Rim trail- right out the back door and several 5 star hikes in Tahoe NF within a 20 minute drive. Excellent common areas for the eight of us to enjoy a dinner or a movie.

Lovely home, views - lots of precarious stairs
Had a great time sitting in the hot tub watching the sunset, cooking, hiking, and being together. We even saw an asteroid shower from the deck! Our only issue is the stairs are not lit very well and the wood flooring made it hard to see where the edges of the stairs are (the dog refused to go down). But we just used great care. The decor is seriously western with a LOT of up-cycled farm equipment/cowboy art. The TV equip was so hard to use we quit trying. We had a few issues (like a rusty old BBQ ) but the manager was on them and even brought us a loaner for a birthday dinner!. Thanks for a great stay!
