About this property

FULLY REMODELED! Summer of 2022.

This beautiful home is great for multiple families or just one family looking to spread out!

Picture yourself on the large deck looking out onto the pine trees while you BBQ with your friends and family. Enjoy the great room with large picturesque windows while watching the snowfall gently on the pine trees. Try not to let the view distract you, as you 'work from home' on the large table with seating for 8+. There is plenty of room for the whole family to enjoy the mountains with four bedrooms and a loft/game room. Compete in a friendly game of foosball, 1980's PacMan or a real Casino slot machine competition while enjoying a board game, movie or play PS3 on the big screen tv.

The living space is bright and roomy, with towering ceilings and large windows that frame the trees. Planning a quiet night in? You'll have WIFI, a wood burning stove, complete with wood, a large hearth with seating around, a sofa which pulls out to a queen sized sleeper; a flat screen tv; which also includes cable, a DVD player, Netflix; and a selection of adult and kid games to keep you entertained.

The fully equipped and recently remodeled kitchen is the perfect place to cook for a crowd. In the mornings enjoy coffee or tea with a Cuisinart drip coffee with Kuerig machine. You can make a single serve or a full pot for your group. Feel right at home as you're preparing your meals with all the comforts of home, on brand new state of the art appliances, including pots and pans, most spices you may need and clean up will be a breeze with the large copper farm sink.

Great snowy weekend!

We had a great time celebrating a weekend with friends in a beautiful Donner house! It was comfortable and the owners took a lot of pride in their Donner home and it showed. The kitchen was fantastic and fully equipped, my dog loved the dog toys she found and the kids had a blast playing in the snow! Hot tubbing in the snow is always a treat and even more so when it's actually snowing!! My only wish was that we would have had a three day weekend; none of us wanted to leave!!! We can't wait to go back!

Nice House with good amenities

This is a lovely house & Jill was very friendly and easy to communicate. My family came up to snowboard, my 11yr 1st time so I booked this house since it had a game room for kids in case snowboarding didn’t work out. Unfortunately we couldn’t entirely enjoy the game room, missing charger to the Xbox and slot machine was jammed. We called Jill, she tried ordering a replacement charger but it wouldn’t come in time. The previous family jammed the slot machine. So it was a bummer but the kids still enjoyed foosball and pacman. Overall I would recommend staying here, good location & other amenities. Pros: 1. Spacious 2. Big backyard, lots of snow for the kids to play & build snowman 3. Lots of supplies (unlike other where they give you starter supplies for 1 day). Kitchen is fully stocked many extra items like ziplock bags and tuberwares to use. Large island which is nice for us to leave out snack and food for the kids 4. Wood stove to keep the place cozy at night & a rack to dry our gloves & hat. 5. Hot tub was a hit for our older kids after snowboarding Cons: 1. Washer and dryer is not connected to the house (you have to go outside into the garage to do the laundry). Summer might not be a big deal but winter it’s too cold so no one wants to go outside. 2. Mattress in the downstairs room is firm, it’s a nice mattress with massage and different positions but my husband is a side sleeper so he had a hard time. 3. Mattress upstairs is firm, daughter used the comfy couch.

Lovely stay!

We greatly enjoyed staying in this property! There six of us, plus two dogs, but there was space for more. The kitchen is very well equipped, so we enjoyed cooking! It was great to be able to step right outside for snowshoeing and cross-country skiing in the woods, and to soak in the hot tub and relax by the fire later. The host was very communicative and the process of checking in and out was smooth. Would love to come back!

About the host

Hosted by Jill Edgar

Rick and I both grew up in the Roseville area and went to Roseville High School. Both of our daughters attended RHS as well. Ashley is our eldest and graduated from the University of West Alabama, as a student athlete, with a degree in Sociology with a minor in Psychology. She is now married to Kevin along with our 5 grandsons and works at Oracle. Our youngest, Katie, played softball on a scholarship as well, at Wilmington University in Delaware, while studying Behavioral Science until she had a career ending injury. She is married to Brandon, an at home mom to her bonus daughter Rylan, and their baby Lainey.

It's been a lifelong dream of ours to have a vacation home to share with family and friends in the Tahoe Donner Community. We've been renting in TD over the past several years while looking for the perfect vacation home. As a retired firefighter, parents of two beautiful daughters, five grandsons, two grand-daughters and 3 great grandchildren, we feel we have found the right combination and now have the time to spend in our retirement home as much or as little as we choose.

We chose the Tahoe Donner area as our retirement living, because of all of the amenities it brings. The downhill skiing, snowshoeing, cross-country and sledding it brings in the winter; along with the beautiful hiking trails, equestrian fun at the new facilities just a few miles from our home and of course the gym at the newly remodeled Cross Creek. Not to mention the two beautiful swimming pools all of the shopping and dining we've enjoyed just down the street in downtown Truckee.

We hope you, your family and friends enjoy our home as much as we do and know you will feel right at home!

Why they chose this property

Our cabin sits on one of the rarest flat lots in Tahoe Donner and a quiet street where you can relax and hear the birds sing, watch the visiting chipmunks and occasional deer; coyote and bear. You can walk right out off our back deck and walk on to the Tahoe Donner trail for miles and in the winter months you can snowshoe or cross-country ski for miles if you choose.

What makes this property unique

After looking at over 30 homes in the Tahoe Donner and surrounding areas, we selected this cabin for several reasons. It's large enough to host our entire family and extended family for holidays and celebrations. We love the large kitchen, and great room where we can all cook together and gather around the large fireplace. We were also drawn towards the quiet neighborhood/street, where we can take walks with our dogs, walking with our grandchildren; rarely seeing a car or another person sometimes for a week that we've been up here. The back deck extends the size of our home, where we can enjoy cookouts, happy hour, the hot tub and star gazing. The beautiful flat yard is something that was most definitely on our bucket list as we age, and this one is a bonus as it backs up to the Tahoe Donner hiking trail, which can take you through many trails around TD for miles. We can hike, snowshoe and cross country ski; again, right outside our back door.
