Property description

Enjoy a cozy vacation in our fully equipped luxury vacation rental, we call Casa Sierra chalet. It is the perfect place for rekindling that special relationship, spending time with friends, with the children & your house-broken dog which stays off all furniture (no cats), or with multiple families.

Professionally decorated by the owner, an Interior Designer, our home is elegantly appointed throughout with striking Native American artwork, the spacious living room/dining area features a striking red Vermont wood burning stove and soaring 20 ft cathedral ceiling flooded with natural light from tall windows. Relax with a great surround-sound system as well as two Cable TVs, DVD Cable 'hotspot' for high-speed wireless and wired computer free high speed internet access, free nation-wide long distance calling.

The elegant dining area invites sumptuous meals inspired by a fully equipped gourmet kitchen. The deck is lovely for breakfast amid the silence of towering pine and fir. An ample loft with a queen size hide-a-bed sofa, extra TV/DVD, desk, children and adult games & game table and books overlooks the living room.

Every tastefully decorated bedroom has a new queen bed with high end bedding, down comforters and plenty of extra blankets. This house is ideal for three couples or one or two families: with crib, twin bed, and queen bed in upstairs bedroom...and much more. There is little to no traffic, a two-car garage, as well as parking for four cars on the driveway, which is kept plowed in winter. Please feel free to call anytime for details.

A great sledding hill, viewable from inside, on the property on an extra large lot surrounded by a green belt. A tether is attached between two trees to allow your leashed pet to enjoy the outdoors. Golfing is just five minutes away. Just ten minutes from a great beginner & intermediate ski hill, ten minutes to Donner Lake , and twenty minutes to Lake Tahoe . Also nearby you can enjoy easy access to north shore world-class ski resorts: Squaw Valley , Alpine Meadows, Northstar, Homewood , Boreal, and Sugar Bowl. Casa Sierra is ten minutes from great shops and restaurants in the booming Gold Rush era mountain town of Truckee or quick easy access to the freeway for South Shore , North Shore and Reno casinos. During the Summer, Spring and Fall, you can also enjoy white water rafting, kayaking, fly fishing, excellent hiking or world-class mountain biking.

Our Guests benefit from guests rates for full access to the Tahoe Donner Homeowner facilities, including three pools & spas, workout facilities, two clubhouses, tennis and golf plus a great equestrian center for horseback riding, hay rides and western campfire BBQs.

Owner info

Year Purchased: 2006

About the owner: Residents of the SF Bay Area who use Casa Sierra as a vacation home

Why the Owner Chose Truckee, CA, USA:
Tahoe Donner is a year-round vacation getaway. We love to ski and golf and we love the tons of amenities. We also love that it is easy to get to quickly, just off of I-80 once you cross Donner Pass. It's about a half hour closer to the SF Bay Area and Sacramento than anyplace else in the Lake Tahoe Basin yet has easy and quick access to everything fun about the Lake Tahoe Basin

The Unique Benefits at this House:
Golf, horse back riding, swimming, hiking, fishing, private beach on Donner Lake, summer concerts, hay rack rides, western campfire BBQs, winter skiing, sledding, great restaurants, spending times with family and friends.
