Whiskey Springs by Avantstay Classic Cabin Near Tahoe Donner Ski Area!
Whiskey Springs by Avantstay Classic Cabin Near Tahoe Donner Ski Area!"Spacious and well laid at home. We had a great short family vacation. It was about two minutes from the ski resort. All the instructions were clear. Everything worked well and was clean. Beautiful location, surrounded by tall trees. One small thing, the large television in the living room did not have an HDMI input, so it was difficult to connect to the smart remote."




Home w/ Deck + Access to Tahoe Donner Amenities!
Home w/ Deck + Access to Tahoe Donner Amenities!"The property was lovely, suited our needs really well and was in a great location. I especially liked having a garage to park in. I also liked that the bedding looked nice in each room and wasn’t mismatched. Suggestions: Adding liquid body soap, shampoo and conditioner in the showers and maybe make a few extra bath towels available (if I am washing my hair, I need two towels and hubs still needs one). I did, however, like the towels being left on each bed. A binder with your suggestions...




Lux Leisure Game Room & More!
Lux Leisure Game Room & More!"We loved our time here. My 4 year old said "I want to stay here for trillion days!" He loved the bunkhouse, den area and all the board games. Us adults, loved how spacious the place was and they had everything we needed for our long stay including a fully stocked kitchen. It was conveniently located for us - 20 min to sugar bowl and soda springs and quick drives to grocery stores, downtown restaurants and the lake. I've learned with couple of communications I had to the management that its best...

Serenity at Tahoe Donner | Peaceful, Close to Ski & Lake"We brought our small companion dog on the trip. Our dog is well behaved and not left alone. It was obvious that other dogs were not as well behaved on the property. IE: pet stains and claw marks. Too bad people don’t respect the property….it was a nice trip to watch ski races at Sugar Bowl"

Cedar Chateau w/ Game Room & HOA Access!"Worked out great. Lots of space. Easy to share with friends. We all got a great nights rest in the comfortable beds. Beware it might be tricky to navigate the sloped driveway in heavy snow and thankfully the north woods blvd in Tahoe Donner was well plowed "

Top Tahoe Donner Hotel Reviews
8 Bedrooms, Sleeps 18, 12 bath, Movie theater, Spa, Hot tub, ELEVATOR
"This is our second stay at this property, and once again, my family absolutely loved it. The home is very spacious, clean, and comfortable. It is a wonderful place for families to relax and enjoy their time together. Our host, Elie, is extremely helpful and friendly to make our stay even better. We will definitely stay at this property again and highly recommend it to other families. We look forward to coming back next summer."
Tahoe Ski Lodge WiFi, hot-tub sleeps 12
"We had a wonderful family gathering of three generations at this home. The open layout, comfy living space, and multiple bedrooms and bathrooms were perfect for our needs. The location near Truckee and Donner Lake were exactly what we were hoping for and the access to the local recreation clubs were a huge contribution to our enjoyment (my 7 year old granddaughter was in water every day and loved each option!).We had a couple needs while there and the management handled them well and quickly. Using the home was easy and everything was explained well. It was clean and well-maintained, even the grill was in great shape.We had a few notes on specifics - there’s no air conditioning, which made the upper floor bedrooms really warm in the heat wave we happened to visit during. The kids’ room needed clothing storage of some kind and we got some splinters from the deck. And the deck was the only way to enjoy the property from outside, especially for little kids.Overall, we’re very happy we visited!"
Family Friendly, Gorgeous Views and steps to Tahoe Donner Ski Hill
"We had such a great time in Truckee. Markus and Jennifer are really nice hosts and their house has everything we need. The kitchen is well stocked, they even prepared pancake powder and maple syrup for guests to use. The house is very clean and everything is convenient. We were very thankful to use the Tahoe Donner guest pass and had a great time in the private marina of Donner Lake. We spent 8 days there as my son attended a close-by daycamp while my husband and I enjoyed our "workation." Internet is very strong and the neighborhood is very quiet, so we could focus on working during the day. Markus is very responsive and gave a quick answer whenever I texted him. On the last night, the power was out due to the Reno fire. I texted Markus and he checked the situation and let us know immediately, so we could stay without worries, even though the power didn't come back until around 11:30 pm. We were unsuccessful in getting the fireplace to work, but actually it wasn't necessary as the weather was warm enough. Overall, our stay was great and we hope to return next summer."

"The host was very timely in her responses when we had a few questions and she was quick to address our concerns. It is a small cabin/house that sits in a perfect location. The cabin/house was cozy. We would definitely stay there again."

"Gorgeous property! Everything we needed was on site!"

"Great location. Across the street from Trout Creek Rec Center and a short drive to other Tahoe Donner amenities. Great place. Great host."
Tahoe Donner Condo on the Creek
"The condo was a perfect home away from home. So comfortable and had everything we needed for our stay in Truckee. We loved the updated look and having a washer and dryer was very convenient. We were able to use the pool, driving range, and Donner Lake as well as downtown Truckee easily. This is the best place we’ve found for a week vacation to Truckee."
SierraScape_Hot Tub Over Gorgeous MtnViews, Arcade, SteamShower, 400M Wifi, EV Charger +Pet Friendly
"Summertime visit (August) - Amazing view, very quiet, and a nice summer breeze with mountain aroma. Great spot for morning coffee.Cozy couch and chairs… dining room table was nice for family dinners. The stand up arcade game was fun… I played Galaga mostly, but it has a few to choose from. It got a little warm in the house during the high heat, but we just went to a lake and cooled off. Easy peasy."
⭐️Luxury newly built with Sauna, Steam and Hot Tub
"Great house for a large group. Very comfortable, Kitchen is well stocked. Lots of dishes, Bathrooms were nice and it was great to have 4 ensuite bathroomsClose to downtown and walking trails"
