Get free entrance to Donner State Park. There is a tandem kayak and canoe for you located at the lake. And there are 4 bikes, 4 lifejackets, paddles, beach chairs.

Built in 2022, the house was designed to maximize the lake views. The open kitchen/dining/living space is perfect for spending quality time.

Donner Lake: 2 min. drive or 10 min walk
Sugar Bowl & Boreal: 15 min drive
Truckee: 10 min. drive

On the street level you'll find 2 bedrooms with queen beds and large closets with built in storage, a full bathroom with heated floor, shower over tub, and large laundry room.

Up the stairs is a large open space with the living room, dining area and kitchen, as well as a half bath. There's a deck & lake views from the entire main floor, a large Weber 3 burner BBQ just out the door, and around the corner there's a private backyard with a picnic bench and umbrella, and room for yard games such as corn hole. The primary bedroom is also on the main floor, with a patio door onto the front deck and a luxurious en suite bathroom with heated floor & jacuzzi tub.

On the top floor there's a loft area overlooking the living room. Down the hall and through the door is a large bonus room with the best views. This bonus room is like a small studio with a queen bed, a couch, pivoting TV, sit/stand desk, full bath, well appointed kitchenette, and a table for eating or playing games. Plenty of room for extras. Great lake views from this room!

Garage is available for storage of belongings / equipment you may bring such as coolers, bikes, golf clubs, etc., and space for 1 vehicle.

After a short walk down the street you'll find Donner Lake's 37 public piers - first come first serve. And on each end of the lake you'll find more public beach access (more info about lake amenities in the Neighborhood section).

Classic Truckee neighborhood on the north side of Donner Lake. The lake is just down the hill from the house (10 minute walk, 2 minute drive), with 3 public beaches and the entire north side is lined with public piers. We have incredible sunsets year round and folks in the area regularly find a pier in the evenings to watch sun go down.

We're the first exit off highway 80 when you come into Truckee from the Sacramento/Bay Area, which can save a great deal of time in traffic. And we're the last exit before you head home, so you never have to backtrack after a day on the mountain.

There's also a great brunch spot, pub, small market and a local creamery within a few minutes drive!

SUMMER:
- The Donner State Park is on the East End. This place is a beautiful gem and tucked out of the wind, plus we have a season pass for parking hanging in the pantry for your use. Many hiking trails begin there, there's sandy beaches, picnic tables, bath and shower facilities, boat, canoe, kayak and jet ski rentals too.

- Across from the bottom of James St (our access street) is the Shoreline Park, where the kayak and canoe are tied up at the water's edge. This cute little park has a small picnic area, beach and small (walk down) boat launch.

- And the west end beach has picnic tables and huge sandy beaches. A nominal day use fee to get in there.

- Easy boat access, with the public boat ramp a few minutes from the house. The Donner State Park is on the East End.

WINTER:
- We are centrally located with easy access to the ski resorts in the area. Sugar Bowl & Boreal are the closest at just ~15 minutes away (and against the usual flow of traffic). Palisades, Alpine and North Star are about ~25 minutes.

We can accommodate 5 cars - parking for 1 in the garage and another 3-4 in the driveway depending on vehicle size.

This neighborhood is located in the narrow strip of land between Interstate 80 and the shoreline of Donner Lake. The noise from the trucks and traffic can be noticed most in the back yard but the house is exceptionally well insulated from the sound.
