About this property

Cabin Azul - Tahoe Donner Family Cabin

Escape to Cabin Azul, a newly updated 3-bed, 2-bath retreat in peaceful Tahoe Donner. Perfect for families and friends (sleeps 6 adults + 2 kids), this stylish cabin features an open-plan great room with stunning mountain views, a cozy gas fireplace, and a premium sound system for your entertainment. The fully equipped kitchen invites culinary creations, while the dedicated workspace provides a quiet area for productivity. Your ideal mountain getaway, combining relaxation and adventure, awaits!

We respect our guests' privacy and aim to provide a seamless, independent stay. We will not be present on the property during your visit but are readily available via the messaging app should you need any assistance or local recommendations. We will provide you with a printed house manual and digital guidebook to help answer any questions that may come up.

Tahoe Donner is a great area for families or groups looking to get away from it all without being out of touch. You are only a short drive (25-30 mins) to some of the world's best skiing, including Palisades Tahoe (formerly Squaw Valley), and Northstar. You are also close (10 mins) to downtown Truckee, a bustling little mountain town with some of the best restaurants and shopping Lake Tahoe has to offer.

Guests will have full and private access to the entire home (with the exception of a couple locked spaces for the owners belongings).


Step inside and instantly feel at home in our spacious 1,665 sq. ft. cabin. The great room boasts stunning vaulted ceilings and an open-plan layout that seamlessly connects the living, dining, and kitchen areas, creating a warm and inviting atmosphere for everyone to gather. Cozy up by the gas fireplace on cool evenings, or enjoy streaming your favorite shows on the flat-screen TV equipped with Roku, Hulu Plus, and Netflix.

The sunny, updated kitchen is fully equipped to meet all your culinary needs. From the main living area, step out onto the private deck to breathe in the fresh mountain air, or unwind in the large backyard, surrounded by towering pines. Enjoy high-speed wireless internet and central heating throughout, along with board games and kids' toys for added entertainment. The cabin is newly furnished with a contemporary design, ensuring a comfortable and stylish retreat for your stay.

The home is located 10 minutes from downtown Truckee, approximately 20 minutes from Northstar Ski Resort and about 3 hours from San Francisco. Lake Tahoe is a quick 20-25 minute drive. Other ski resorts, such as Palisades Tahoe (formerly Squaw and Alpine Meadows) are very close as well! The opportunities are endless! Lyft, Uber, and Taxis operate in the greater Truckee area.

To ensure a transparent and wonderful stay, please review these important details:
- We can welcome no more than 6 adults.

Warm and cozy with great design

We were so happy with our stay. This house was perfect for our family in terms of layout. House was very clean with well appointed kitchen. Design was modern yet warm. Everything worked well from wifi and TV to the great gas fireplace. Kids toys were wonderful for our little one. Would definitely stay again.

Wonderful Family Getaway!

We absolutely loved our week long family stay at Lourdes' home. It was the perfect place for our family to relax and also take advantage of the great amenities at Tahoe Donner. We especially enjoyed the Beach Marina and the hiking trails. We will definitely come again!

Perfect snow getaway with the family

Lourdes' home was the perfect place for my family and me to stay! The home was clean and cozy, had fun toys and board games for the kids, and all the amenities we needed. The private backyard was the perfect place to play in the snow and go sledding! The location is convenient to places like Kings Beach as well as delicious places to order food from in downtown Truckee. Lourdes was extremely thoughtful and accommodating, and we'd definitely love to stay here again in the future!

A No-Stress Escape

If you're looking to get away without roughing it, this place is perfect. All I was looking for was a quiet backyard, a big stove, grill and a comfy couch in close proximity to a beach, and Lourdes' property ticked all the boxes. The house was sparkling and disinfected (and there were more cleaning products under the sink) so we were totally at ease. Lourdes was a great communicator and checked in to make sure everything was going as planned. We'll totally stay here again the next time we're looking to escape the city!

About the host

Hosted by Lourdes & the Tahoe Cohost Collective team

Host profile image
We are a family of 4, with two beautiful boys (12 and 14) and a dog. We keep ourselves pretty busy with all the things that San Francisco has to offer. We love trying new restaurants, going for hikes or bike rides, or the beach when the weather cooperates. We love to visit new places and always find a good excuse to travel.

We spend a lot of time in our house in Tahoe and cherish the time in the mountains, where we reconnect with nature and our family. It brings a perfect balance to our hectic lives.

To help us provide you the best Lake Tahoe experience, we partner with Tahoe Cohost Collective. As our cohosts, they will be available to you to answer any questions you may have and provide recommendations for you as you are planning your trip.
