Gorgeous lakefront escape with fireplace, close to skiing

We stayed here for the Donner Hare Scramble 2018. The house was perfect! The kitchen and living room were grand! The home is situated right across from Donner Lake and West End Park which was a perfect location for the boys to ride their bikes and play at the park. I would definitely rent it again. The Vacasa HK did a great job too! The home was very clean and organized.

We had a Bachelorette party and the space was perfect for group meals. We had a yoga teacher come and the living room fit eight plus teacher perfectly. Plenty of towels, dinnerware, cooking supplies, and beds. Thanks A quick walk across the street to West End Beach.

We can’t wait to book again!!!

We miss this cabin already felt like home away from home.. Location was amazing literally near the beach!!!

This Donner Lake house is perfectly located (just across the street from the West End Beach) and is well designed to accommodate a large gathering. We love the house! The kitchen is open to the great room and is wonderfully spacious (with plenty of counter and cupboard space). The cupboards are stocked with many dishes, glasses and cups, along with many of the cooking basics you might need. The great room features large couches and comfortable chairs, the dining area has a large table with plenty of seating. The entire upstairs is infused with beautiful, natural light from the many tall windows. The deck is spacious and greatly enhances the available space. There are multiple bedrooms and it is very helpful to have three bathrooms available. <br />

The down side? The level of cleanliness was disappointing and required us to clean before using--dirty linens were on many of the beds and there were no replacement linens obviously available. Some of the pillows either did not have cases and/or the cases were the wrong size (again no replacements available). I would recommend bringing your own pillows. There were only two washcloths provided. Many of the dishes/pots/pans, utensils provided in the cupboards were dirty and/or greasy. The floors in the kitchen and bathrooms, along with the shower floors, could use a good scrub (especially around the edges), and the bathmats were not clean. For some reason the rooms are very stuffy at night, even with the windows open--you might want to bring a small fan (there were two fans provided in the house but they are VERY loud and too forceful to use in a bedroom).

Upstair is awesome. Large kitchen, open space for entertainment, large fire place. However there are also short comings. Downstairs Rooms and bathrooms are small. No hot tub...
