Central location, well-stocked kitchen, delightful owners
Stayed here in March so we could snowboard at Sugar Bowl, which is just 10 minutes to the west. There were only four of us, but the place could easily fit a large family -- lots of places to sleep. The kitchen had everything we needed to cook, and when we wanted to go out for a meal, Truckee was only 10 minutes to the east. The owner gave us her cell phone number upon arrival, and we ended up using it when we couldn't find the remote for the DVD player. (They have a solid collection of movies also.) Her husband called right back, and we sorted it out. Next time we come to Tahoe to play, this is the place we'll book if it's open.

Great Tahoe Adventure for Family Reunion
We are return customers to this lovely, spacious home, where we gather grandparents, parents and grandkids, for a grand old time. Home is very comfortable and kid-friendly (they even supply a baby gate for the stairs, which came in handy for the one-year old).We enjoyed the comfortable living room area, large dining table, grill on the porch, spacious kitchen well stocked with cooking utensils, pots, etc., the nearby park at the lake with kid friendly jungle gyms and the nearby Donner Ski Ranch. Owner keeps the driveway well snowplowed too and the place was clean, the towels fluffy, everything was great.

Great Stay at a Cozy Cabin
This cabin is newly remodeled and really nice. Our children are just learning to ski this year so we have Boreal season passes. We stayed two nights and it was convenient to only be a ten minute drive away. We ate at The Pub at Donner Lake twice and the food was great. It snowed quite a bit on our last day but it wasn’t an issue since the roads and driveway were plowed. We had a wonderful stay and would use this cabin again! 5 Stars :)

Treacherous Home Entry
The house was fine. Downstairs was freezing! They are building a deck and the 6 feet from the parking pad to the front door was ridiculous. It was icy, muddy and full of holes which made it quite treacherous to navigate, especially at night. The owner’s response was uncaring. I would never rent this property again.

Absolutely loved our winter stay here. Quiet, comfortable, and despite massive snow and a road closure, it was easy to navigate and enjoy skiing at Sugar Bowl resort. We can’t wait to return and might even try the summer season vibe here.

Perfect location, comfortable home!
We loved our stay in Donner. This home has two bedrooms downstairs (master and bunk room) and one upstairs where the kitchen and family room are. We loved having 2.5 baths and a washing machine. Walking distance to the beach and pub along with public docks. Homeowner was very helpful and responsive. Kitchen well stocked. We would love to stay here again. Everyone was comfortable and happy!

Excellent location
We loved the home, especially the location as it was a close walk to the beaches. We lived out of a wagon all week. We just loaded it up with food and beverages and walked over to the beach. What a great stay!

Beautiful and relaxing!
This property was perfect for our little getaway. The house is roomy, clean, and cozy! We loved walking, hiking, kayaking and spending time across the street at the lake. We will definitely be back!
