The Unique Benefits at this Cabin
We want your stay at Red Bear Lodge to be like that at a high-end Bed & Breakfast. You'll find no 70's furniture, orange shag rug or funky tile here - we've completely gutted and replaced the bathrooms, kitchen, flooring, fixtures, lighting and added high end furnishings for your (and our) comfort and enjoyment. Our hope is that you'll treat Red Bear Lodge like your own and keep coming back to stay with us.

Tahoe Donner possesses some of the best Mountain Biking terrain in the Sierras. Check out Euer Valley, Hawk's Peak and miles of single track all a short ride from Red Bear Lodge.
The Tennis Center is TD's best kept secret. 11 championship hard courts w/ two practice walls - the most amazing setting I've ever played tennis at. Definitely a must to stop by and see - unreal!
