Property Features

We have been welcoming visitors to Tahoe for 20 years and as the leading vacation specialist you can be assured of top-of-the-line quality homes, cabins, and service. Finding the ideal vacation home for the entire family is often akin to searching for a unicorn—both mythical and elusive. Yet, nestled in the enchanting landscape of Tahoe Donner, this luxurious three-story residence may very well be the unicorn of mountain retreats. Designed with an ethos that blends the rugged charm of a lodge with impeccable luxury, this home is a marvel of alpine elegance. From the moment you step through the door, the grandiosity of the residence is undeniable. The expansive living area immediately draws your gaze to an arresting view of Donner Lake and the surrounding peaks, a vista that will have you reaching for your camera—or perhaps a glass of wine. The room's centerpiece, a floor-to-ceiling custom granite and wood fireplace, suggests cozy evenings that could easily turn into a nightly tradition. The gourmet kitchen is a culinary enthusiast’s dream come true, outfitted with top-of-the-line stainless steel appliances, including a Wolf 6-burner gas range that promises to elevate your home-cooked meals to new heights. The primary suite on the main floor provides a sanctuary of comfort, featuring direct access to the back deck, a large flat-screen TV, and a luxurious ensuite bath complete with a glass shower. Ascend to the upper level and discover the game room, a veritable playground for both young and old. This space, featuring a 60-inch TV, a dedicated game table, and a piano, is perfect for winding down or engaging in friendly competition. For additional flexibility, a sofa sleeper offers extra accommodations for your group. The lower level is equally impressive, boasting another spacious primary suite that rivals the luxury of the main floor’s offering. This suite includes a king bed, direct deck access to the covered hot tub, and a private bath with a jetted tub and sauna. Two more guest bedrooms and a TV room—complete with a fireplace, sofa sleeper, and beverage cooler—make it an ideal retreat for children or any group in need of relaxation after a day on the slopes. This GOLD LEVEL PROPERTY spans 3,500 square feet and welcomes well-traveled dogs (maximum of 2) for a nominal fee. Seasonal amenities include a covered hot tub, a gas BBQ, and access to the extensive Tahoe Donner amenities. ABOUT THE AREA Tahoe Donner stands as a testament to the beauty and boundlessness of the Sierra Nevada mountains, boasting over 7,000 acres of stunning landscapes and a welcoming community of 25,000 members. This sprawling haven offers a wealth of outdoor activities throughout the year. In winter, the area transforms into a snowy playground with a family-friendly ski resort, cross-country trails, and snow play areas for young adventurers. Come summer, the options expand to include a championship golf course, private swimming pool complexes, and a beach club on Donner Lake where you can indulge in paddleboarding or simply relax on a chaise lounge. Culinary options abound, with The Lodge Restaurant & Pub standing out as a local favorite for its exceptional dining and panoramic views. For quick grocery runs, Z Marketplace offers a curated selection of wine, deli delights, and daily BBQs. Other dining options include Pizza on the Hill, Alder Creek Cafe & Bar, Marco Polo Grill, and Ski Grill + Bar. Tahoe Donner provides a distinct advantage for those frequently journeying from the Bay Area, reducing travel time by approximately 45 minutes compared to other North Shore destinations. Located a mere 12 miles from Northstar California and 16 miles from the renowned Palisades Tahoe, this location ensures you're in prime position to enjoy all the region has to offer. Your rental includes two guest cards granting access to Tahoe Donner’s exclusive amenities, with each card covering up to four guests aged 6 and over (children under 7 are free).
