Do you have a question about this home or the local area?
Set among the trees in Tahoe Donner, this home feels bright, modern and easy to settle into. Big windows bring in the light (and plenty of pine views), while the open kitchen naturally becomes the place everyone gathers. In the evenings, the gas fireplace and oversized sofa make it hard to resist a slow night in. The layout suits families or groups well, with a calm, spa-like main suite, inviting upstairs bedrooms, a fun bunk room and a lower-level suite that adds a bit of extra privacy. With trails, ski resorts and downtown Truckee just a short drive away, it’s a relaxed, good-looking base for year-round mountain stays.

Local guide
About Truckee
On the border of California and Nevada, Lake Tahoe is one of the largest bodies of water in the US. As you'd expect, it's an area of astounding beauty, but the lake has also made a name for itself as a centre for both winter sports and water sports, as well as hiking and cycling. The north shore is a bit quieter and more relaxed than the south. While there's still plenty to do (including the annual food and wine festival), you're unlikely to see crowds like you do in other parts of the region.
