Photo gallery for Eagle Nest Suite by Tahoe Truckee Vacation Rentals

King bed in the third floor ‘treehouse like’ master suite with pretty forest views.
Flowers in the secret garden (this of course varies by season)
Welcome to our secluded oasis on nearly half an acre in the forest. We are set back from the street, with a peaceful and undeveloped greenbelt behind the house. Climb the stairs to begin your "almost like a treehouse" stay with us.
Many guests consider (optional) Rainbow Hot Tub a highlight of their stay. Set it at 80 for a refreshing cool dip or soothe aching muscles at 104. Enjoy rainbow light therapy in the evening. In winter, it's often surrounded by a cathedral of snow.
You are renting the 3rd floor master BR of this beautiful chalet in the forest, plus 1 driveway parking spot near the front steps. The downstairs unit is separate with separate entrances and may be occupied by the owner or other guests.

About this property

Eagle Nest Suite by Tahoe Truckee Vacation Rentals

Best kept secret in Truckee! Get away to this peaceful Eagle Nest master suite perched high in the trees in Tahoe Donner. Welcome to the Eagle Nest Suite — a peaceful, treetop master suite perched above the forest in Tahoe Donner. This serene, comfortable retreat offers a king bed, soaking tub/shower, window bench, large TV, coffee maker, mini-fridge, small microwave, and tranquil views into the pines. It’s an ideal space for guests respite, cleanliness, and easy access to Truckee’s best amenities.

Our quiet street provides rare tranquility while still being walking distance (0.75 mi) to Z Marketplace, The Lodge Restaurant & Bar, and the Rec Center. We’re 6 miles from historic Downtown Truckee and about 15 miles from Palisades Tahoe.

The suite is part of a larger home but fully locked off with its own private entrance and no shared indoor spaces. One parking space on the large, flat driveway is included.

🌲 Seasonal Atmosphere

In spring and summer, enjoy our “secret gardens,” a work in progress with thousands of planted bulbs offering daffodils, tulips, hyacinths, and seasonal color.
In winter, the gardens disappear under deep snow, transforming the view into a magical snowy forest.

❄️ Comfort & Climate Control

Most Truckee homes do not have A/C, but this suite does — a major comfort advantage in summer.
There is no in-room thermostat, so guests simply message the owner anytime to request temperature adjustments.

Host profile image
Erika has been hosting short term rentals at this location for over 20 years and is a very experienced host. Due to the pandemic and other life issues, we recently reconfigured our spaces and that is why these are "newer" listings. The master BR locked off from the main home is a newer offering that has been very popular with our guests due to its serenity and value.
