Ponderosa Pine Escape

This family-oriented mountain home was thoughtfully designed to comfortably accommodate two families. The interior is open and filled with natural light. The main level open floor plan encompasses the kitchen, large dining table, and living room with floor to ceiling windows with views of the surrounding pines and forest. The main living area has access to a large deck with outdoor furniture, hot tub and backyard gathering area. A gas fireplace and central heating keeps the home cozy during those cold winter months.

The home has four bedrooms. The primary bedroom on the main floor has a king-size bed with an ensuite. The second bedroom has a queen-size bed with an adjacent bath. On the second level there are two brightly lit bedrooms each with their own ensuite bathroom. Both upstairs bedrooms have two twin-size trundle beds that comfortably sleep up to 4 people in each room.
The second level also includes a den, which is the media room where guests can stream or watch a classic collection of VHS tapes + DVDs. A game table is nicely set overlooking the main living space to allow and encourage seamless interaction.

The location of the property is ideal. It is within walking distance to the Trout Creek Recreation Center that includes a gym, multiple pools (lap, recreation, and kiddie) spa and sauna. There is also a children's play area and driving range. Other attractions include the Tahoe Donner Golf Course, The Lodge Restaurant and Pub, convenience store, and access to multiple hiking trails. The cabin in location 3.6 miles from the main Grocery Store and Downtown Truckee.

The Tahoe Donner community offers many great amenities including tennis courts, an equestrian center, skiing (both downhill and cross country), access to Donner Lake Beach Club, and tons of hiking trails. Four guest passes (each pass allows 4 guests) are provided to allow you to take advantage of these amenities at a discounted daily rate.

Whether your plan is to get away and relax or explore your adventurous side, this is a perfect location to begin creating memories with your family and friends.

Important note: This is not a party house. This is a peaceful home in a quiet neighborhood for you to make memories with your families and friends.

We look forward to hosting you for your stay!

Winter Wonderland

The views of the forest are magical. The house is very comfortable and clean and well appointed. It is close to everything you need, stores, restaurants, historic downtown Truckee. Ski Resorts and outdoor activities are also close by. Exceptional place.

So easy to feel at home here

My girlfriend and I stayed here for 5 weeks, and we felt settled immediately. You can tell that this is the family's home and not just a rental property. The location is awesome - walking distance from the TD market and restaurant, the gym, and tubing, and a quick drive down into Truckee. The kitchen is super well stocked and you can tell it is very well taken care of. The beds are comfortable and every bedroom has its own bathroom. The hot tub looks out into the trees behind the house. The garage and plowing of the driveway made several winter storms so much easier. We are looking for any excuse to get back. Robin is great, she was very responsive before check in and during our stay.
