Overview

Permit #: 001136 Occupancy: 8 In summer or winter (or anytime in-between), this 3BR/2.5BA chalet is convenient to the most exciting activities in Tahoe. Between water sports and fun 4th of July celebrations at Donner Lake and some of the best skiing in the Sierra, you'll never run short of things to do. INSIDE THE CHALET The open living space is just as fun and social as your vacation plans. It boasts vaulted ceilings and tons of natural light thanks to its magnificent floor-to-ceiling windows, as well as a gas fireplace for chilly nights, a big screen TV, sound bar, and a cozy seating area for five. There's additional seating for three at the kitchen bar: perfect for keeping the cook company. And there are perks for the cook, too: granite countertops and stainless steel appliances, plus a wine rack. Six can dine at the table -- or take your food outside onto the sprawling deck, complete with a table and seating for four in the shade of the surrounding pines. There's one more option in the living area: a unique console dining table that seats three. You'll find an additional living area upstairs in the loft. This movie room is equipped with a 52-inch TV and DVD player. There's also lots of extra sleeping room up here, with both a queen and a twin pull-out couch, and a half bath. There's plenty more sleeping space on the main floor. The primary bedroom has a queen bed and an en-suite bathroom. The second bedroom is outfitted with a king bed and can easily use the half bath upstairs and shares access to the primary en-suite bathroom, or use a third en-suite bathroom downstairs on the lower floor near the third bedroom, which sleeps three between a queen bed and a twin sleeper sofa. Perfect for a family with young children, the third bedroom also boasts its own thermostat-controlled gas fireplace! EXTRA PERKS & MORE DETAILS Park your vehicles in the two-car garage. Bringing your RV or boat? Park it right on the property! Eight maximum number of occupants (excluding children under 13 years of age) permitted. THE LOCATION It's hard to get closer to the action than this. This chalet is only a 12-minute walk to West End Beach, a great spot for families. With a roped-off swimming area, volleyball nets, and watersports rentals, you'll find plenty to do. West End Beach is also home to Truckee's annual 4th of July celebrations! Take the 18-minute drive up Historic Highway 40 to the hiking, biking, and rock climbing at Donner Summit. For wintertime visitors, your home is central to Tahoe's best skiing. Sugar Bowl and Donner Ski Ranch are just a 10-minute drive away on Old Highway 40. Squaw Valley, Alpine Meadows, and Northstar are just a 30-minute drive away. Cross-country skiers will love the trails at Royal Gorge, a 17-minute drive, and Donner Memorial State Park, 8 minutes away by car.

We’ve been spending part of the summer in Truckee for 15 years - this house was the best. Great location - quiet and close to hiking trails. Super clean and had everything you need. We LOVED it! We will rent again - 100% recommend for families.

We stayed at this beautiful cabin on Donner Lake over the 4th of July weekend and couldn’t have asked for a better experience! The cabin was absolutely gorgeous—immaculately clean, beautifully decorated, and so well stocked with everything we needed. It truly felt like a home away from home. There were tons of fun activities in the area, from paddle boarding and kayaking to enjoying the festive fireworks over the lake. We loved having such a cozy place to come back to each evening. The kitchen had everything for cooking, there were games and comfy spaces for relaxing, and the hosts really thought of every detail. We can’t wait to come back—highly recommend for anyone looking for a perfect getaway on Donner Lake!

The home was nice and comfortable. Walking distance to the lake (west end beach) and the pub. Short drive to the market and other restaurants. A short drive to downtown truckee and Tahoe Donner. The beds were super comfortable and the home had a nice, spacious layout. Would recommend.

The house was perfect for our visit to Donner Lake. It is on a quiet street and the neighborhood is great for walking. The public beach is a great way to spend the day and the Little Truckee ice cream shop is a must. The house had everything we needed for a great stay.
